About this test

This PlasticList-derived record contains 3 samples of McDonald's Vanilla Shake screened for 18 phthalates plus BPA, BPS, and BPF. PlasticList reports that these samples were collected in the second half of 2024. The imported data available here does not identify the testing laboratory, analytical method, or exact test date. DEHT was the highest measurement at 77–300 ng/g in all 3 samples, followed by DEHA at 11–14 ng/g. BBP, BPA, BPF, BPS, DBP, DEHP, and 4 others were below the limit of quantitation.

Measurements are reported by sample in ng/g, including non-detect and quantitation-limit status where available.

This record is derived from PlasticList data and retains its source-specific collection information. Results describe the tested samples and lots at a point in time; they do not establish that every unit of a product is universally safe or contaminated.
