So, do all doctors turn out to be elitist pricks like you? Do you act like this to your patients in the office, or if you don't deal with patients, then your co-workers? Unless you can't act better than everyone at the workplace so you take out your inner shortcomings here...

Believe what you want, I'm not even going to post what I think because you'll find some way to show that somehow you're better than me, because that's the cool thing to do on the internet, I guess.


You can't believe he's a doctor. I'd like to see some credentials, otherwise I say BS like everything else the tard had said.

..... and everything else Snatchface has said.

Looks like you're pretty gullible when it comes to your "facts" about the meat industry, particularly what national chains put in their burgers. I hope your not this way when the pharmaceutical reps come calling.

I've been buying meat for over twenty years on three different continents and have been in a lot of abattoirs and processing facilities. And put it this way, yes you do get what you pay for and with billions of dollars in equity on the line in share value, the steps that McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, Carls' Jr., and yes EVEN Hardees take to protect it is astounding. On top of that there are government product standard of identity requirements to call product "ground beef" or "hamburger". No national chain is going to risk their future on a few pennies saved with adulterated meat even if it could leave the processor with "eyeballs and CNS tissue" in it. You have more to worry about buying burgers from a local mom and pop (not all though) than from a national chain. When you get a burger at McDonald's or Wendy's the beef is from all skeletal trimmings - no head meat, no organ meat and no eyeballs. The efforts that meat processors have to engage in to insure that their products meet customer specifications from both a quality and food safety standpoint are mind boggling if you ever took the time to research them.

BSE resulted from a since outlawed practice of enriching ruminant animal feed with protein rendered from offal (including CNS tissue), downers, blood meal, plate waste and byproducts. This was a STUPID practice that has since been prohibited by the USDA and most of their international equivalents throughout the world.

I could go but I'm be boring most who take the time to read this but suffice it to say Snatchface, you don't know what you are talking about when it comes to how burgers are produced in this country.

Said with intelligence and apparently knowledge. Perhaps my friend has the wrong of it. He does attend cattle auctions so maybe these things vary locally somewhat. I will retract my arguments. You are probably right. Does what you said account for buying of sick and dying animals? Because he said the chains will buy anything as long as it is breathing, regardless of it's illness...at a discount.

Just for my info, then, what happens to all of the "waste?"

All of you chicken littles are sad little people. I hope you get hit by buses. Better than death by fast food, eh?

Missed this, earlier, but here's a late reply.

Some of what you are calling "waste" is actually sold at a decent premium, as food or otherwise--tongue, eyeballs, some organs, intestine, etc. It has specialty purposes in some foods or is used in some ethnic cuisines.

It used to be that basically everything else was ground up for animal feed. BSE has basically changed that and some parts are just taken out of the food chain altogether--instead of being paid for the garbage slaughterhouses have to pay to have it disposed of. (I'm not positive on all the details--whether some waste is still allowable as animal feed.)

McDonald's runs tighter specs than BK. Wendy's would be a close second to McD's. If you want the best burger, go to a good local butcher, have him grind you up fresh angus certified chuck steak (you need ~20% fat to have any flavor) and cook over a Webber charcoal grill with a couple of brews by your side. Use a bakery kaiser roll that you butter and toast slighty under a broiler, then dress as you please. Mine is w/

Hellmans' mayo (or kraft spoonable thousand island)
Velveeta (don't laugh, it's the best on burgers)
Green leaf lettuce
Vidalia onlon slice
beefsteak onion slice
grilled mushrooms

Who cares if these thing kill me eventually? As long as it doesn't kill me on spot, I am fine with it. What's living if you can't enjoy food once in a while?

btw, I don't eat burgers much and I am not overweight. Not that I am in diet or don't like burgers, I just don't have the chance to eat them much because I usually bring lunch.

I haven't eaten a hamburger from BK in over 20 years. It isn't because of health factor either. More like taste factor.

When I was in the marine corps I went out to Bk on occasion. I used to watch them make the burger. They took a burger that was ran through the broiler probobly hours before and nuke it in the microwave. I couldn't understand why they even done this since that bk probobly had 50 people at lunch daily. It was quite the small town. Anyhow I noticed all the bk's did the very same thing. So no more burgers for me. Strictly fish and sometimes chicken. If I wanted a hockey puc for lunch I would go to the sportings goods store.

We have a winner. If only most of you knew the lengths that these fast food chains went to, to ensure that the quality of their beef was the best and 100% certified. It would definitely blow your mind. It's unfortunate that they spend so much R&D, time, and money on ensuring the quality of their meat, only to dunk it in a fryer or do whatever they will with it afterwards. The way they prepare it kind of seems like they're taking two steps back. Ah well.
