I heard that Mcdonalds grinds up the whole cow in a meat grinder, even the shitt in its digestive track and puts the whole crushed cow into the hamburger. Now i know they do this with their chicken meat, cause it was on super size me. I find this kinda gross. But im not sure if they do it with cows. Could someone clear this up for me? They also prefer to put defunct chickens in the m eat grinder cause they're cheaper than normal chickens.

No they don't grind up the whole cow, however, they do use parts that you probably don't want to hear about...

No, they do not grind up the whole cow or chicken. I used to work in a chicken factory that sold meat to McDonald's called Hudson. They don't use grade A meat, and some of the chicken looked green, but it was the same pieces that others bought as grade A. The main difference was the lesser grade had small flaws in the cut, broken bones, or sometimes was left out of the cooler too long or was dropped on the floor. The bad chicken wasn't completely McDonald's fault. By the time they got it to process it into nuggets and so forth, it was frozen and you couldn't tell the color. By the way, Hudson sold their lesser grade meats under the name Dairyland (not the same company who sells dairy products).

Illegal to use certain parts of cow. They cannot even sell organs in store unlike Europe where you can get stuff like steak and kidney pie, etc. .. but they probably do not get prime/or choice grade meat either. as to stuff falling on floor.. wish the people that dropped things would think twice about themselves wanting to eat that and at least wash it off!

that sounds like someone a vegetarian would say. They'll say anything to stop you from eating meat. I think the hamburger meat from fast food chains (most not all) are made from some bad parts. But it's not as bad as what you asked.

They don't grind up the whole cow. If they did, they would never pass inspection. Don't believe everything that Hollywood spews. It's usually lies or half truths.

I'm still tripping off of what Virginia said. They drop the meat on the floor? They leave it out of the cooler? It's green? Well, that's it for me and fast food.

mcdonals only use forequarter and flank in their burgers (the front and breast) and as far as i'm aware its illegal to use certain parts of a cow, like the boney parts because of BSE (mad cows disease) so dont always believe what you hear.

No it's not true. They only grind up the bits that nobody else wants.
