I don’t eat McDonald’s because of its shitty business practices, but why does it matter if it’s real meat as long as the person eating it enjoys it? Also, they are actually 100% real beef, just basically a blend of different cuts merged into one.
They don’t grade the beef since it is a mix of different cuts and trimmings ground together. It meets USDA inspection standards and is safe for consumption. I have no idea how that compares to something like prison food (I assume it’s very similar), but while MDs and pet food can come from the same type of trimmings, there are different safety regulations required for each. Regardless, the grade of meat doesn’t mean that something is bad. Grading is based on fat marbling and maturity of the cow. Most off the shelf ground chuck is going to be of about the same quality. They use the same quality meat as most other fast food restaurants.
It’s certainly not everyone’s favorite, and to me it’s definitely not as good as a higher quality burger joint, but the beef itself isn’t dangerous, filled with non beef, or poisonous as has been claimed in the chat.
What point are you trying to make with that link? It reinforces most of what I said. It’s just a guide on how beef is graded. It further explains on certain cuts that grading shouldn’t be taken into consideration with leaner meats as marbling inherently isn’t there. Like I said, McD’s beef isn’t graded because it is a ground mix of different cuts. So what is the point that you’re trying to make here?
I’m disinterested in headbutting your apologia wall, friend. Fast food is purposefully made with as little real meat as possible, and for cheaply as possible.
The article does not support your claim aggrandizing McDonald’s, but you go on with that pulmonary fuckery you’re on your way to. I’m done with this “conversation”, but good chat. Good luck out there.
I guess if the person eating McDonald’s loves to poison themselves with fake meat, then sure I guess it doesn’t matter as long as I’m not the one eating poison.
Maybe you missed the part where it is 100% real beef in their burgers. There is 0 evidence that any of it’s not real and all claims about it have been debunked. But if it weren’t, what do you think is in this made up fake meat that’s poisonous?
Haters gonna hate, but if you’re going to make bullshit claims, at least put some effort into it.
It’s not fake, at least not in countries with food safety standards – or standards in general – but I can’t confirm whether it’s always 100% beef in the patties that they claim is.
There’s not enough cows on this entire planet to supply all the different kinds of cuts of meat, and ground beef for all restaurants and businesses making “100%” ground beef entrées. Not to mention, all the grocery stores that sell prepackaged meat that looks nothing like meat straight from the cow. McDonald’s uses fake meat, it is frozen paste imitation “meat” to make people think they are eating “100%” real beef.
This has been debunked a number of times. There is infact enough cows to do this.
It would only take about 1.5 million cows in a year to supply McDonald’s with all the beef they use in a year. Assuming every patty they use is of their largest size they currently offer. Which obviously they don’t.
So worse case your looking at 1.5 million cows, and realistically it’s close to 1-1.25 million since they are also using their smaller patties.
Last year in the USA alone 36 million cows were slaughtered for meat.
So mcdonalds uses about 4 percent of just the usa beef production annually, and because mcdonalds operates off of local supply chains instead of single source.
That means that 1.5m heads is sources across the entire worlds supply. So that’s about half of a percent of the world 300m ish production.
And keep in mind that’s a conservative estimation of cows slaughtered. The real number is likely actually a bit higher, tho not enough to really be worth mentioning.
As it’s going to be local small scale and home operations.
So unless you have a sizeable misunderstanding of the concept of numbers thinking that there isn’t enough beef is objectively retarded.
Now McDonald’s does use the cheapest lowest quality supply they can get their hands on. So calling it meat paste isnt entirely wrong. But it is BEEF meat paste.
Debunked or not, McDonald’s is still disgusting and the amount of people who are coming in with comments backing up McDonald’s instead of agreeing they are gross, really shows how many of you still live in the matrix and haven’t woken up to realize that there is poison in everything. There’s cancer in the food people. When you’re buying your next round of groceries from the store, be sure to look and see how many items you buy that have “Contains a bioengineered food ingredient” on it.
Needless to say, I’m done with the McDonald’s talk because it doesn’t affect my life or my body because I make all my meals at home with carefully selected ingredients and everything organic.
Organic food is also bioengineered… Anything that uses selective breeding falls under the category of bioengineered.
Literally every vegetable and fruit we have has been bioengineered, and basically only don’t get the federally required label because of a loop hole since the bioengineered label and genetic engineering labels have weird quirks on the legal side.
But there’s no such thing as a non engineered plant grown in the usa, all available seeds are from engineered plants. Unless you can time travel a few hundred years into the past and obtain seeds from before modern techniques started getting used you can’t obtain “clean” seeds.
Even just grafting a plant is enough to mutate its DNA and thus making it classed as gmo. And if not for legal exemptions all fruit and veggies would carry the gmo label.
It’s only thanks to lobbying that stopped them from doing so. So unless you want to use legal definition instead of actual common sense definitions. Everything’s bioengineered or genetically engineered.
You all make me laugh with your comments still defending McDonald’s meat. Do you really care about McDonald’s so much that you’ll fight some one on the internet tooth and nail over the realness of fast food meat? Did I hurt someone’s feelings by saying McDonald’s meat is fake? You all act like I insulted your family. 😂
Honestly who is still eating McDonald’s knowing it’s fake meat?
This is what needs answered. 😅
Finally someone comes along and gives me validation instead of defending McDonald’s meat. I hope your pillow is cold ❤️

IIRC, it’s Grade D meat, which is below prison meat (and pet food, too?)
It’s been a while since I rabbitholed that one, and noped out after the adjacent revelations, NGL.

Your faith in the US’ legal system is doing a helluva lift there.
In case this helps clarify,, fellow anon. 💁🏼♂️

We’re not in here backing up the quality of McDonald’s, we’re pointing out what you’re saying if factually incorrect.
It sounds like you don’t know what cancer is either.
Engineered ingredients used to preserve food for shelf life so that more people have access to food doesn’t make it poisonous.

I’ll fight anyone over patently false information. I don’t like liars, and silence in complacency.
Lol, so upset for no reason other than I shit on McDonald’s. Get over it.
There’s plenty of legit ways to shit on McDonalds without making stuff up.
Isn’t the “100% Real Beef” just a company name?
Why do you say it’s fake meat?
What do you mean with fake? Is it not meat? Is it meat, but not of the animal advertised? Is it meat, but of abysmal quality? Is it cardboard?
That’s offensive to cardboard.
