According to a McDonald’s Malaysia statement today, the fast-food chain restaurant advised her to learn from her mistakes and verify any information she received before spreading it.

It said McDonald’s had also taken the initiative to personally call the individual.

The statement also displayed a letter of apology sent by the woman. However, her identity and personal details were not disclosed.

The company said it had issued a statement last month to dispel allegations circulated on the social media over the cause of discontinuation of the Quarter Pounder with Cheese burger.

“We found that the allegations resurfaced, and we would like to dismiss the untrue allegations which questioned our halal status,” it said, adding that the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia had also issued a statement on the halal status of McDonald’s Malaysia products.
