Just Crouton Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Source McDonald’s Uses Worm Meat Fillers But Can Legally Call It 100% Beef. Large companies have been the subject of rumors that they substitute unusual or unethical substances in their products, usually to decrease costs. McDonald’s is not immune to such claims. McDonald’s has been accused of using everything from worms to cow eyeballs in its burgers. Dating far back to at least 1978, there have been rumors that McDonald’s restaurants use earthworms in their hamburgers. The fact that McDonald’s uses cow eyeballs and worm fillers does not stop them from legally using the claim that they served 100% beef. McDonald’s has assured its consumers that its product contains 100% beef. They are allowed to do this because McDonald’s buys their “beef” from a company called “100% Beef Company”, making it possible for McDonald’s to call beef byproducts and soy products “100% beef”. McDonald’s then ships the beef to their grinding facility in Oak Brook, Illinois where they then take the ground worm filler and add it to their “100% beef patties”. McDonald’s serves billions of people around the world every year. This allows them to produce a higher profit margin by increasing the amount of patties that can be made, by increasing their product load with the worm filler. The worm filler is ground and packaged in a facility next to McDonald’s corporate headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois. The employees must sign a confidentiality waiver to never discuss the ingredients of the McDonald’s food products or face termination and legal repercussions. However many employees have stepped up over the years with the truth and have created a huge controversy over the quality of food that the company produces. McDonald’s has also been accused of using mutant laboratory meat, and pig fat their milkshakes and ice cream. Considering that one quarter of Americans eat McDonald’s every single day, although nutritionists recommend you do so only once a month, they are doing so unaware of the products they are putting into their body. If everybody truly knew what they were consuming, they definitely would not be eating this. _______ This is actually from two weeks ago, but... WORMBURGER AND PIGSHAKE HYPE!!!!

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Remind me not to eat their burgers. (Glad that I order McChicken everytime I go there, which is weekly lately) Otherwise, they taste fine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Well of course it's worm meat. What do you think they'd use COW meat? Silly people... Seriously though. I don't care what is in it. I've already eaten, enjoyed, and not gotten sick from their food so knowing what's in it wouldn't change much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Okay? I'll continue to eat there as normal whether this is true or not. I'm not part of some cliché sitcom bit where I'm eating something delicious, learn it's something strange like sheep intestine or whatever, then suddenly be sickened by it.

Maeriberii Haan Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 If it tastes like beef, it must be beef. Basically, my principle to this kind of thing. Though yeah, I can't think of a way to make worms to have beef texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zauls Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Wouldn't be surprised if this was true. Not that I care, I don't eat that much fast food anyway. KFC were accused of using GM chickens with no beak, feet or feathers as well. Still not sure if that's 100% true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleepy Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Many of the meals people have are already widely known to be "meat you wouldn't normally eat". I'm not going to a huge extreme with this. I mainly say the chicken nuggets are a mixture of left-overs from other parts of the cow. Which the reason people wouldn't normally eat it has more to do with how it looks than how much it'd be able to damage you. Same principle really. I don't think I'd stop eating from something like this. I'd basically have to be victim of one of the production mistakes to be traumatized (like that incident where a roach was inside a nugget, or a dead rat in the salad box, or a bleeding band-aid on the fries, or a condom in the happy meal, and yes all of these have happened for real). THEN I'd be disgusted enough to never come back. Though to be honest I don't even eat fast food anymore. Not any kind of personal goal involved in this, I just dislike how I feel after stuffing myself with pizza or hamburgers, and even though I rarely would ever buy them as it is, now I find myself never doing so. The most is the Jack in the Box 50 cent spicy tacos, which I find unusually tasty compared to pretty much everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A._Sakuyamon Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Could be worse, at least we aren't producing these or these and eating them. That being said I don't eat Mc Donalds that much anyways so I don't really care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cr47t Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Well from what I think (and this is just my opinion and/or reasoning) it is not legal for them to claim that the "BEEF" ITSELF is 100% beef, but it is legal to say that the meat is MADE BY the 100%-beef company, there is a difference between addressing the actual food and the makers/producers of the food. Well, at least I think so anyway. Again, I`m not sure if I am correct on what I just said. EDIT: And you know what Kyng you are right, their guarantee is complete BS. It reminds me of that time when the news said that McDonalds was being sued for putting meat in products that were supposed to be for vegetarians but wouldn't admit it.
