Oh ... McDonalds sells 100% beef products ... but what they don't tell you is what part of the cow it comes from. Use your imagination ...... and you'd probably be correct.

Actually that sounds good.

But I suspect that the non-beef part of a McDonald's hamburger is mainly sawdust (and lightly sugary sauces).

All of the above, µT6 ... and probably even some parts you might not have thought about yet.

Not in their beef patties ... it's 100% beef ... no fillers. But, like I said ... let your imagination roam to include parts of a cow you might find disgusting to eat, and it's probably in a McDonald's hamburger. Now sawdust in their hamburger buns ... that wouldn't surprise me. At least you're getting fiber.  :D :D :D

not only mcdonalds does that

and the results are not that terrible, sometimes you don't want to know what you are eating  :-\

better prepare your own food but still sometimes eat on one of those places is a tempting idea

But I can't think of any. I suppose I wouldn't want to eat the gall bladder but that's because I can imagine what it would taste like, not because I find it disgusting ... And I'm not partial to lungs and udders. They don't disgust me though.

Yes, I meant the buns. But aren't they made with fiber-free sawdust?

They claim it is .......  as they did throughout Europe regarding beef burgers .......  but when DNA testing was done it proved a lot of horse meat was also used.

So, who tests the DNA of McD's patties to ensure it is all beef and not mixed with horse meat?

Like I said before on this forum... I had a friend that used to work at a slaughtering-house.

He said that after working in the area where they make wieners & bologna... it took him months to ever start eating it again...
