memories of 3am cheeseburgers at King st..... priceless
100% beef I assume means they can't include offal, but the cuts of beef must be pretty nasty :lol: Grisle, tendon, etc etc still technically count. Once it's minced up it's not so bad... I suppose... sort of...
In a very strange and disturbing way, I actually sort of feel like going out and eating something from McDonald's now :shock: I know I'd regret it if I actually did it. I've eaten from there four times since 2001 and regretted it every one of them.

The more animal they use the better though right? Then again I love haggis so maybe my view is skewed.. >.>

Oh, offal doesn't bother me at all, but I think new regulations have made 'meat' exclude offal. Some manufacturers of pies, smallgoods, etc used to include offal in their products and include it as 'meat', 'beef', 'mutton' etc in the ingredients list. I think one of the main pushes for the change is law was mad cow disease which is carried in offal but not muscle (meat).

Well that's excellent news then, I had no idea.
Meanwhile, I don't know what I was thinking suggesting you have a problem with offal considering you consume raw eggs :|

I worked at Parramatta Maccas when I was a kid, not the worst place to work for but not so great either.... I was cleaning around a fry vat one day, it was school holidays and super busy, and my hand slipped and went into the vat. All of my fingers on my left hand were burned and blistered (they looked like an apple pie)... anyway, they wouldn't let me go home! They made me make drinks for the rest of the busy lunch rush.... I worked another 2 hours with my hand in a bucket of ice water with third degree burns.

GOOOOO BIG MACS!!!
Actually I worked for both Inghams and Steggles and whenever I would find I chook head that was still attached to the chook I would rip it off and shove it inside followed by the seasoning, so if anyone ever found a chook head when hoeing into the seasoning, my apoligies
how do you get a job at one of those places? sounds like fun!

Probably the easiest place to get a job, but trust me it traps you I was stuck there for 5 years, I had heaps of fun yeah but at a price, I was constantly in and out of the supervisors office but Im use to being in trouble so this was fun too talking my way out of stuff!!
I guess you could say Im a trouble maker or the class clown :lol::lol::lol:

Worked at Maccas for a little over a year, and sadly enough they paid better than when I worked at a Chemist as a dispencing pharamacy assistant (the one who gives you your drugs). I know all the nastiness too -- and it isn't all that bad. I still eat there maybe once or twice a week (Uni student lol) but I know the risks of eating it.
((Oh yeah and 100% beef means it was a 100% at one point. The way they make it is they debone the cow, take out anything that might kill us, put it in a blender and mince it to a paste. They use special edible cardboard to form the shape of the patties, because once the pureed beef goes on them [the cardboard thingos], they absorb it like a teenage boy watching a porno.))

Take away is simply a TREAT not an everyday meal ...if eaten like a treat its not that bad ..if eaten as a regular meal then you have got major problems ...I dont have any type of take away resturant where I live ,the closest Maccas or any other "family" resturant is 55kms away ...so if my family gets maccas or anything else of that nature its a treat ...
They claim there burgers are made with '100% Aussie Beef' because that is the name of the company they purchase their beef from, whether it is made from 100% beef or not is debatable but if they purchase their meat from a company called '100% Aussie Beef' Then legally they can cay that.
That's another urban myth, and if they did try that they'd be in a lot of legal trouble.
Speaking of urban myths, one story I've heard a lot over the years but never confirmed, is that McDonald's primarily makes money from real estate rather than selling 'food'. This sounds possible, actually quite probable. Can anyone confirm it?

McDonalds biggest money earner is fries! I think the box of fries costs around $22, in that box you get 6 individual bags (i think its 6, might be 8) anyway, 1 bag of frozen fries makes up approximately 10 medium serves of fries.... anyone remember what medium fries cost? I think it works out to be about $80 dollars profit on each box of fries.
Minus wages (admittedly minimal
), rates, advertising, electricity, cooking lard, etc etc etc.- Status
