I don't eat meat(except seafood), so I stopped eating both just in case recently because I heard something. Can someone please tell me if it kills animals or anything?

THIS IS THE CORRECT ANSWER:
All McDonald's are the same, there isn't one that uses different ingredients from another....
There is beef tallow in the fries and beef tallow in the hash browns. They are not vegetarian OR vegan
If you are looking for vegetarian food options at McDonald's, it's time to reassess why you are vegetarian in the first place.

Both use beef flavouring.
And remember, seafood is meat. By supporting it, you support an industry that kills 1000 dolphins, whales, sea lions, seals, manatees, and other animals A DAY. You might want to try cutting back on the seameat and become a true vegetarian. Good Luck! : )

According to Eric Schlosser's book "Fast Food Nation", McDonald's used to fry their fries in beef tallow (fat) to give them a distinct taste.
A few folks from a particular religion found this out and tried to sue Micky D's, claiming that Mc Donald's was placing their souls in jeopardy as it is against their religion to consume animal products. They sited their religious text and everything stating that they would be sent to hell and would have a horrible afterlife. They were mad that Mc Donald's did not disclose this up front.
Well, I don't think they won the lawsuit, but Mc Dondald's did agree to change the frying agent to one that is vegetable-based. BUT if they use the same grease to fry animal products and non-animal products that does you no good, right?
I don't think I've ever seen Mc Donald's fry more than one product in the same grease (I thought that was just a Long John Silver's thing -haha), but you can never be too certain.

The hash browns are cooked on the same grill as the meat.

Where I live, McDonalds and Burger King both use the same fryers they use for their chicken strips/nuggets as they do for their french fries.
As a vegan, I refuse to eat their fries because it would essentially have animal parts on it.
I recommend you just go home and make yourself a salad.
Or make your own fries (check the freezer section).

Well I'm never sure what McDonald's uses. I rarely get the chance to be near one, but even if I am, in spite of their ingredients lists, I avoid the Golden Arches. If you want to have a healthy diet omini, veg, or whatever, IMO avoid fast-foods except in rare circumstances or as a special, special treat.

That's IT! NO MORE HASH BROWNS from McDonald's. How do I avoid not eating meat? I do not want to consume anything that was intentionally murdered!

Suck it in. Consciously hold in and contract your ab muscles while you’re walking, sitting your desk or making the evening meal. This will help to strengthen your ab muscles and your core, and enable you to get one step closer to any flatter stomach.
