It is not yet known which specific food ingredient is contaminated.

Now the question is, is the bacteria in the beef, vegetables or the cheese? I don't eat much fast food, which ingredients are unique to the quarter pounder when compared to other McDonald's burgers?

It's always always always romaine lettuce. I don't know if there's any in any part of a McDonald's burger but I know romaine is at fault somehow

which ingredients are unique

I'm going to sound like I'm joking - but I'm not. You could check Reddit. I bet there are at least 3 (far more?) threads where redditors are doing food inspector cosplay sleuthing. They love that shit and the site has a gigantic number of users. My wild hunch and wild assumption is that certain patties are only for Quarter Pounders. If my assumption is all wrong - I'm all wrong too.

They're claiming onions.
