McDonalds Beef

KLHJ2 · 10-19-2009, 02:24 PM

If you read what snopes says then you will realize that no beef is comming from Latin America. It is being bought from Australia and New Zealand.

In all honesty all cattle ranchers have to do is change the diet of their cows from corn to grass so that the cows become leaner meat. McDonalds is still the largest purchaser of American beef, but would buy even more beef from within the U.S. if the ranchers would produce leaner cows.

Sooo, McD's is.........really a healthy choice? Shazaam! Maybe it's like the Lay's potato chips that have been healthologically poison for as long as I can remember. NOW they boast "No trans fatty acids". I think they are health food as well?

Not a must-read at all.

I have not eaten at McD's since I was a broke college student a decade ago.

On CNN a year or 2 ago they reported that McDonalds had the healthiest breakfast menu of all of the franchises. Slowly McDonalds is escaping the unhealthy grease pit reputation that was synonymous with fast food for so many years.

It doesn't really matter if you CAN'T eat it.

I eat McDonalds a fair amount. But honestly if it came to taking the McDouble off the Dollar menu or only using American Beef, I got to say import all the foreign beef you can get. If people only want American beef it would have no problem selling, that’s just not the case. It doesn’t matter to most people, including myself.

McDonalds is delicious, very affordable, convenient and oh so delicious.

Can't or won't? Who can't eat it besides my ninety something year old grandfather who can't eat anything unless it has low sodium and can be sucked through a straw?

Ah, if people only understood the concept of Healthology. I blame this on our leaders and parents -- nobody cares about teaching Healthologics! That's why I've chosen to get my PhD in Theoretical Healthological Studiology.

LOL! I was thinking the same thing! The new Angus burger is actual not bad but weighing in at 750 calories I will pass.

Of your fives sense, smell-touch-taste-sight-hearing, only taste becomes more accute with age. Isn't life a cruel joke. =)

Sometimes I get the feeling that the people who bash fast food so much really like it but saying how good fast food is just does not sound right so they bash. I bet someone that bashed on this thread actually had fast food for lunch today. I could eat fast food 3 or 4 times a week if my doctor did tell me different.

How very scientifical of you.

McDonald's is one of my stupid guilty pleasures. Not just stupid b/c it's like eating a bowl of lard topped with fat and two spoonfuls of salt, but b/c, after eating it, I feel like crap. Yet, I get it again, and again, and again.....
