No, not all the hamburgers are really from hamburger meat, the hamburgers are made with machines which gather random meat parts of animals such as cows. They may take part of the stomach meat with part of the leg meat or part of the body and the machine will all compress it together to create the hamburger patty. This is also done with McDonald's Chicken McNuggets but they take random parts of chickens and compress it together.

I used to work at mcDonalds and I can assure you there are no worms in the product sold as hamburger meat. There IS however controversy as to the fact that there is 10% horse meat incorporated into that meat. To date, I do not eat their burgers. I only get salads and drinks there (and no I'm not vegetarian!) In all fairness, the same is true for Burger King using a percentage of horse meat. But McDonalds is the chain with the catchy Big Mac advert song touting, "Two ALL BEEF patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun..." Here is a link to dispell some of the urban legends surrounding the meat used in fast food chains. I'm sure if you search Snopes further, they may have info on the horse meat. Frankly, I'd be more concerned about the fact that the IMPORTED meat is likely to have mad cow disease than worms!

These hamburgers are made from whatever is left from the meats...skin, bones, gut, you name it and these being reformed and offered to you.
Abstain altogether from them. No doubt that we are contracting all sorts of diseases,leave alone being obese. McDonald's just is thriving on our trust and offer us all kinds of food to be avoided. We just have to be more consistent in our approach and avoid eating these junk if we are to live healthier and happier. They just want our money!
we can save more and do more worthy things for our country fellows . Just think about it, honestly!

They are made of real meat. The thing is, in one hamburger there is meat from about 1000 cows.

yes they are made from beef but its the parts of the meat that are still attached to the bones after they remove the prime cuts.. they scrape the bits off the bones with a machine and process them.

They're made out of whatever is left from the cow/pig/whatever after all the good parts are taken out. Business is all about making money so nothing is wasted.

No, they're made from Pigeon. But McPidgeon doesn't sound as tasty as the Big Mac.

they must sell and tell you what is in the meat by law, rumors are BS, they serve dead cows unless otherwise stated.
