Guess here is the reason they are called McNuggets instead of chicken nuggets "Chicken (45%)"

I'm a big fan of the "100% beef", which means technically, they can run a whole cull cow, through a meat grinder.

When are we going to just say no?

Yup, because when I want to taste REAL beef, I need that Emulisfier E472(e).

Yuk.

Good thing I only drink their coffee.

Last week I stopped for McCoffee on my way to work. Not bad coffee, until I got to the grounds at the bottom of the cup. Yuck, ruined that for me. No more McCoffee for me if they can't use a filter properly.

Oh, and at Sheetz I can fill my own travel mug. No styrofoam for the landfills. So Sheetz gets my vote for coffee.

I like it when I walk in and they have just "mopped" the floors. With Slip 'N Slide,(from the grill, I guess). Then I get to thinking who just ate at this table before me, and if the sesame seeds are gone because some kid sneezed on it and blew them off...........
Ah!, the convenience and taste of it all, guess I'm hooked....

Only problem with your 'sawdust' theory is that the USDA doesn't allow it.

A person could eat three homecooked meals a day and if they're not balanced they'll not be healthy. My grandma was a great cook and pretty much cooked three meals a day... bacon (or sausage) and eggs for breakfast... homemade sausage gravy and bisquits (both made with te fat from the bacon)... the worlds greatest fried chicken (fried in lard), cakes and pies and on and on. Guess what... she (and pappy) had high cholestrol, high bloop ressure and high sugar.

By law, the 100% beef claim means exactly that... 100% USDA inspected pure beef, no additives, no fillers, no extenders.

You can say no for you and yours any time you wish... but please don't include me in your "we". I'll decide for myself and I enjoy occasional fast food, so I'll not say no in the forseeable future.

I don't know about Mickey D's but there are these fast food resturants down south that we don't have here in Minnesota. I wish we did. They are called Chick Fill-up or some such thing. Love their food!

I stopped eating the majority of fast food after seeing "Supersize Me" Ill occasionally hit Arbys for the roast beef sandwich, but that's it as far as fast food for me.

You can get a really balanced meal at Old Country Buffet. All you can balance on your plate, plate after plate....
