techbeck Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 ok, I stopped at the video saying MdDonalds is as addictive as cocaine. I eat MD every now and then and feel no withdraws or need to eat there any time soon after. Fun fact, want to know what is in your food? Buy it and cook it yourself. Otherwise, you accept the risk of someone else preparing it for you. T3X4S and Ian W 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No? not much, and "organic" isn't necessarily better, just different poisons. you know "natural" ones... which also means untargetted and more of them.

neufuse Veteran Posted August 22, 2016 Veteran Share Posted August 22, 2016 oh dear gawd..... just a bunch of BS.... hint, even a high class restaurant is BAD for you..... even eating is bad for you... we only blame mcdonalds because they are so big... eat at a place like Ruby Tuesday in the USA lot and you are going to be way worst off then if you did at McDonald's every day and they are not a fast food joint, they are normal chain restaurant... lets just rename all these videos to "x# if disgusting things about ANY restaurant" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of food is everywhere and can be much more that the unsubstantiated claim of 1% of the people. People are just ignorant about the food they are eating and lazy to spend time and make it themselves. It is also cheaper to buy your own food and prepare it yourself.

Pink slime, which can either refer to mechanically separated meat (scraping the cartilage, basically) or using ammonium hydroxide to sanitize beef, is certainly not a myth. It is true that McDonald's has discontinued using ammonium hydroxide, but they did so not a long time ago and mainly after a scandal erupted, after Jamie Oliver did a bit on it.

If people are being repeatedly told that pink slime is a myth, which it isn't, it doesn't help dispel much of anything. Pink slime isn't anything good either. Ammonium hydroxide might not necessarily be dangerous at the recommended doses, and even that is debatable. Even if you take it for granted that it is innocuous at reasonable doses, the problem is that ammonia is used as an antimicrobial agent to sanitize meat. Not only is that method of sanitation not fully effective against some bacteria -- but no amount of whitewashing can cover up the fact that the process of using ammonia to treat meat has no other role but to sell otherwise low-quality, otherwise non-reusable cuts as 100% lean beef. The suppliers use a technicality (the ammonia is used to produce the meat, not as an added ingredient) so that they don't have to label the meat as being ammonia-treated. And that video isn't old; it's from 2011, and as a result McDonald's has since stopped using ammonia-treated beef in their patties. I fail to see how this is not a win for the consumer. There is no reason for McDonald's to use bottom-of-the-barrel meat except for profitability purposes, given that their menu prices aren't that cheap.
