Just the fact that their food can resist these natural effects obviously means they put some additives in the food which make the chemical composition highly stable, and therefore your digestive system has to work harder to break it down.

They aren't saying you CAN'T break down the food, stupid. Have you ever crapped out a whole cheeseburger?
err I don't think you understood my point.
This article implies to the less intelligent reader that what you said is the case about a cheeseburger that won't ever leave your system because it can't be broken down even after years have gone by which certainly isn't the case. It doesn't say anything that with regular exercise it's fine to have a burger every now and then which is why this article is a piece of shit. no pun intended

^yeah there was a documentary called supersize me which actually educated a few people unlike this article.

i was told that the fries in the states taste different than they do up here. also that the fries in the US come from a paste and are shaped into what fries normally look like. but, this was all hearsay and nothing that i could possibly confirm. the buns here for SURE would go bad because there were many occasions where i finished making something only to notice that bun was molding. so i would be forced to toast another one to make it right. so i don't know wtf they're using for buns in the states

but seriously though, someone told me that for the eggs in the Mcmuffins, they have this processed tube of egg and they just slice it. The guy who told me used to work in the mcCawks in the states. spoon ek9 can you verify this?

Hey man. If you want to put that in your body, go for it.

I'd rather go for some higher quality hamburgers from other places. Even if that means paying an extra $ or two.

Well the fries won't mold because frying it takes all the water content out of it. Without water, no bacteria will grow therefore it won't mold. I don't think it has anything to do with what kind of potatoes they use

It's all fast food patties. Ever tried making your own burger? Get a nice cut of meat and grind it yourself and then cook it. It's succulent. Fastfood beef is just fail. Many have strange fillers as well.

From wikipedia (can anyone confirm this)
"100% Beef (company)
Another popular urban legend is that McDonald's gets their beef and related supplies from a company named 100% Beef so they can use the phrase 100% Beef in their advertising. While it is true that McDonald's receives it's ground beef from a company named "100% Beef", the phrase is no longer used in advertising (for some parts of the world)."


If you want a quality burger you have to go a place like this:


Just stop eating fast food. They're's so much more to food. lol.

Read Anthony Bourdain's chapter on "Meat" in his new book and you'll find out that pretty much 99% of the pre-packaged ground beef burgers are processed all the same and contain the shittiest parts of meat.

The reason you hear so much about food poisoning from ground beef is because they have found ways to "semi"-safely processes more of the cow through chemical disinfectant processes. Parts that used to be thrown out as scraps in the past, such as parts too close to exposed skin or the lower digestive tract, are now treated with ammonia to kill any possible harmful bacteria and ground into the beef. However, sometimes the disinfecting isn't complete enough or it inadvertently comes in contact with un-sanitized surfaces, and you get contaminated meat.

And the so-called "Kobe" burgers? It's ALL a marketing ploy. Real Wagyu beef is SO fatty that making a burger out of it would be almost disgusting. A 6oz steak of real Wagyu is all a normal person can eat in one sitting because it's so rich.

The only way to know your ground beef is quality is to grind it yourself as LiquidTurbo mentioned.

correct me if i'm wrong, but I think it has to do with the preservative that they put into the fries.


There's a huge difference between home-made fries and McD fries.

Moisture
Bacteria need moisture to grow. If you remove water from food, bacteria will not grow. When bacteria have enough moisture, food, warmth and time they will begin to grow again.


Also an uncooked cut potato will start to brown if not cooked. The article and video are both stupid.

At the end of the day, we all learned that it is basically not really good for you, but then wait....we go back eating it because we choose to. So there isn't really a big problem if we all knew about whats behind the closed doors because we just go back to it even though we know. However I mean some can resist it, no doubt about it.

Just like Coka Cola melting barbie dolls or figures over a long period of time...? I think its been a while and I forgot the study behind it but we know its bad for us, but in the end, we still drink it basically.

I can take fresh ground beef from a store cook it leave it for a month and it will not grow mold.

You talk about air born Bactria. If it's in the air you are breathing it. I would not eat a year old burger but calming Mcdicks is doing something to beef is BS. Why would they do anything to the beef to preserve it when the patties come frozen.

Just stop eating fast food. They're's so much more to food. lol.

now i remember it was you or perhaps someone else mentioned that a good clean made burger you are allowed to eat medium rare/rare, otherwise most ground beef u need to cook it 100% thru due to bacteria in it or some shit

There are two things which can make this article plausible:

1) Dehydration

I bet the person who did the experiment separated the bun from the meat and left it in a low humidity environment. Basically they just dehydrated the food.

Dehydrating food preserves it.

2) Addition of salt

Salt is a preservative, and McDonalds adds it to their meat and fries.

Manic pointed out that there is no ketchup on the bun... Ketchup is moist and sugary - perfect bateria food.

If you don't understand the above two points, then just think about beef jerkey : Dehydrated meat loaded with salt.
