A woman with a severe allergy to eggs was hospitalised after eating a McDonald's wrap because staff wrongly added mayonnaise to her order. Holly Carr, 37, ordered the chicken wrap from a branch but suffered anaphylactic shock and ended up in hospital.
Holly said: "I want to raise awareness so people with allergies are mindful when ordering from McDonald's. If I hadn't had my EpiPen on me, I wouldn't be here right now. But I don't get the feeling the company understand that's how serious it could've been."
Holly was enjoying a night in with her family on May 6, 2021, when they decided to order McDonald's. The mum-of-four specifically ordered her grilled chicken wrap without mayonnaise, due to a severe egg allergy, she developed during adulthood, she said.
