If it is from McDonald's then don't worry.

They don't use real beef.

Well, I think it's funny considering a few weeks ago I saw an ad on the tele about how McDonald's serves "Alberta Beef with Pride"

anyone else see that? haha

But it didn't say 100% real Alberta beef.

Is a cow really a cow if it doesn't walk around eating grass, making methane piles and going "Moooo" but rather stands in a pen with tubes stuck into it?

Kinda like the chicken issue with KFC.

miss.myra · #11 (**permalink**) May 21, 03

yeah, and who really knows if it is even Alberta beef (like the whole thing, the 100 PURE BEEF as indicated on their packaging is a brand name, not an indication..)

It's just funny, they release these commercials to show their pride in supporting Canadian ranchers and Albertan beef to reassure consumers, which I'm sure is having a bit of an odd effect on sales now..

**MC Hammered** · #12 (**permalink**) May 21, 03

Hmmm.. I wonder if their salads are 100% organic too??

Or are they injected with beef juice like their fries?

Goat · #13 (**permalink**) May 21, 03

yes..cuz we all know ALL beef is bad cuz some little calf got the disease.
grow the fuck up. this is sars all over again
if you don't want your beef. send it to me. my fridge is empty.

mmmmmmmmm....bloody steak....mmmmmmmmmmmm

that's cuz if you make a burger outta 100% beef, that means there's no seasoning, breadcrumbs or eggs. just beef. so they say all beef.

as far as the fries go, they used to be cooked in rendered beef fat.

Read fast food nation, OK

Top shelf! pretty scary read, especially considering that I'm a chef.

Jingles · #23 (**permalink**) May 22, 03

^ tis a good read- intersting for sure

One cow - with up to five calfs
the disease isn't even passed through blood anyway - it comes from cows eating other cows (or food that contains their breathren)
the disease, like SARS really isn't detrimental to humans - hence the name Mad Cow disease and not Insanity in steak form

like Jean Chretien I'm eating steak w/ a little bit of pepper
mmmmmmm STeak!!!
But I am hoping this causes enough panic that the Keg has to offer supremely good deals on their steaks...selfish I know
Actually I just hope the US doesn't continue the ban on Canadain beef and that this doesn't get out of control like SARS panic

beach*bum · #24 (**permalink**) May 22, 03

i am thinking about the economy also.
could be bad.

hopefull it doesn't get that far.

katM · #25 (**permalink**) May 22, 03

ooooooo, oh no, everybody worry now, its only one friggin cow that they found that had it, jeeeeez

who gives a shit, when they say that the whole cow population has it, then ill start worrying.

hey does burger king and wendy's use real beef??! oh well, still tastes good :284:
