I am consistently amazed that Midwesterners with conservative "don't screw with me and I won't screw with you" values would be so willingly ****ed over by a bunch of rich ass mother****ers in New York.
For **** sake, farmers in the heartland, ranchers in Texas, and hunters everywhere should know what real food looks and tastes like. Why on earth vilify a guy whose sole message is "your kids should be protected from assholes who want to sell them poison." And the BEST part is these guys who, in the same breath, defend McDonald's for turning a massive profit, yet dismiss Jamie Oliver for also doing so. It leads me to one, inexorable conclusion... You're ****ing morons who deserve to eat yourselves to death. |

I think most of the aversion to "pink slime" is because there was a photo circulating on the internet that made it look gross. Well, it just looks like ground beef that's more finely ground.
What did people think McNuggets were made from? Like there is a pile of chicken breasts in the dumpster with little mcnugget-shaped holes in them? You're eating fast food. It's crap. If you don't want crap then don't eat fast food. If you don't eat fast food then who cares about this. Anyway, ammonia is all over your house. It's used to treat wood, it's in the cleaning chemicals you buy or in the chemicals that are cleaned other places you go. It's all over the environment. It's Nitrogen and Hydrogen. |

We'd do a hell of a lot better reducing this country's fat ass if they outlawed soft drinks, if we just want to be nazis about it. |

Because everything is McDonald's. And most consumers have no idea what they are putting into their bodies, and are often tricked into eating unhealthy stuff they thought was healthy. So i don't have a problem with watchdogs raising awareness of this kind of stuff, especially since McDonald's made a conscious decision to introduce unnatural ingredients into ordinary food in order to save cost. In general, that whole idea of valuing cost effective mass production over natural food is the main reason we have this obesity problem to begin with. |

It has to start with education and labeling. People have to better know what they're eating and know how to make meals of their own.

Too much alcohol is also bad for you.
Should we stop making it? |

This thread amazes me like almost all threads related to our health. I don't care what any of you want to friggen eat or how many of you want to go to McDonalds irregardless of what I think of them. I am for informing the consumer. GMO's should be labeled. Organic food should be labeled. If you are using fillers it should be labeled. What is it about large percentage of you that want to deny the consumer this very basic right considering they are ingesting it? Is there any other part of the consumer world where you would believe misleading the consumer or denying them the right to know exactly what they are purchasing is valid? This is really a no brainer to me.

WTF does that have to do with anything? Amazing, you really had to dig deep to come out with that defense.

If the idiots who don't vaccinate their kids stop eating at McDonalds, that would make McDonalds safer for the rest of us.
