A friend of mine who works at Macdonlads said that the fries are totally veggie that they even use a seperate fryer from the chicken...But ive read a lot of places that they arent. Confused....
Knowing corporate companies and their fiendish ways, I would be suspicious, and therefore avoid them....
Yes, most places would have a separate fryer for chicken/fries. (In fact, lots of places have an entirely different kind of fryer for chicken) But remember - the potatoes you are consuming are *majorly* GMO. They put sugar and salt on the fries, and I wouldn't even come close to trusting the sanitation and storage methods in a place like that. Plus, by supporting a corporation like McD's, even buying a veg. item, you're still adding to a very real problem. Not trying to be preachy here, but really.... why would you *want* to eat that crap anyway?
well, in India, McD's got sued for adding beef flavoring to their french fries to make em taste better. This was before frying so the seperate oil wouldnt mean a thing http://www.mcdonalds.com/app_controller.nutrition.categories.ingredients.index.html#1
Thats so wierd that they add beef flavoring, way to bum out a good day. lol I want to eat that crap because I love fries, and already dont drink cokes, eat candy or meat. (so i think a little craps good for everyone.) Yeah its adding to the problem, but so it buy from anywhere that serves meat if this is your stance. Including grocery stores that sell it.
their biscuits have beef in them too. that pisses me off when they make a vegetarian dish with added meat flavoring.
This is just my own opinion... but I'd question EVERYTHING McDonalds says about their food. Every other week or so, I get emails saying that their fries are, then are not gluten-free. If they can't manage to keep wheat (that'd be their buns) contamination out of the fryers, how do you think they do at keeping things like chicken out of it... when they're also cooked in grease? If you're craving fries, both Burger King & Wendys are constantly passing their cross-contamination tests... so their fries should be as meat-free as you can get from a burger joint. love, mom
McDonald's hamburgers are Immortal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYyDXH1amic ^Hilarious...I just about fell over when I first saw the list of pesticides in burgers at the end of that video.
McDonalds also contributes to the deforesting of the rainforest where they clearcut forests to graze cattle and grow soy. They also irradiate their food, and cut thier beef with like 45% (genetically modified)soy. That is also truee that white potaoes are mostly GM. And if their not, their very hybridized and prone to feed candida in the body and create a whole host of other problems....And it causes over-eating because theres no nutrients in those foods. Also, the same people who flavor McDonalds food work with ciggerate companies ..... who design products to be purposely addictive. Fast Food is not even an option in my diet, even if it is vegetarian or whatever. It's good to make jokes about but not to eat....
^^ That's exactly how I feel about fast food these days, too. Even if some part of me says "you know you COULD find something edible there..." The thinking part of me would much rather swing by the grocery and make the same dollar investment in real, whole foods. And think of it this way: hot food, even fast food, is expensive. If you spend that same amount on fresh produce you'll end up with a satisfying meal, done just as quickly (if it's raw), that's not nutritionally void, and has taste inherent to it's whole ingredients instead of just whatever seasoning is added at the last step.
Yeah!! You can't trust those fast food places and I don't think people should support them. But Arby's has good fries and for some reason I feel better about Arby's than some huge fast food killing corporation like McDonalds. I wouldn't be surprised if they had some kinda meat flavoring too though...
I think I am gonna buy a McD burger and put it in my closet and check it out when I am done with my lease in eight months.
maybe you would get like a pet rat, or some other strange burger eating creature as a pet out of the deal.
