Well, clearly, you grind up beef chuck to make burgers, Chuck is a diminutive form of Charlie, ergo the libs at McDonald's have been supplementing their burgers with the cultivated remains of Charlie Kirk. The fake moo is all a plan to make everyone go woke by tricking them into cannibalism. Where's my poster board and red string?
I am enjoying the implication of this. Implying that one entire cow is turned into a single burger
When you look inside a cow, there's actually no burger to be found. There's definitely something fishy.
The famous McDonalds quartertonner.
Almost choked on coffee from this
And a whole tree is ground down for one toothpick
Are there any cats and dogs around your local MacDonalds? If not, you should be worried!
There are no rat problems; only rat opportunities.
About 900,000 cows are slaughtered every day. If every cow was 2 meters long, and they all walked right behind each other, this line of cows would stretch for 1800 kilometers. This represents the number of cows slaughtered every day.
1800km/24hr is 75kph or about 45mph. Imagine a unending line of cows traveling about 45mph into a giant meat grinder.
That is unintentionally a really funny mental image that I could totally see in something like Renn and Stimpy
900,000 are slaughtered world wide every day or in the US alone?
This is a world wide stat. The numbers for chickens are stratospheric. with 200 million chickens slaughtered per day.
They eat to grow, they grow to die
They die to be eaten at the hamburger fry
Cows well done
But on the horizon, surrounding the shoppers, came the deafening roar of chickens in choppers
On top of this, some restaurants are pretty upfront about it. If I remember correctly, Sonic burger patties are part beef, part mushroom.
EDIT: found it.

It would be insightful if the math checked out.
You can get roughly 1600 beef patties out of one cow. Your 6.5M burgers a day use up 125,937 cows per month and there's 95M cattle in the US.
Honestly mind boggling that 125 thousand cows are slaughtered each month just to support maccas. Once you add various other places selling beef burgers and other beef cuts and I imagine the number can get a lot bigger
cows aren't killed for burgers.
How so?
Most fast food burgers are made from depleted milk cows, so there's actually little overlap with places that sell beef from dedicated meat cows
I have no idea if this is true but it is so genious and calculating that if it is not, i commend you. Wow. You can still call it American (or whatever country you are in) beef and not lie, but it is such shit quality and at such a low price that it has never occured to people. Much like "genuine leather". Humanity amazes me.
Yeah, if everyone stopped eating at McDonald's, supermarket beef wouldn't actually get cheaper, but dog food would. There are a thousand more tricks and shortcuts like that in the animal industry - I'd really recommend watching Dominion, as it shows quite a few more of those
Hate to break it to you but your local supermarket and big grocery chain uses cow beef for ground beef also. Same stuff as McDonald's. You guys are perpetuating old info (circa 2012) that has to do with XF trim and LFTB.
Will make sure to watch it. Sounds like something more people should do. Thanks!
McDonald's gets the very last stage of leftover beef from the carcass. If they don't buy it, it goes to things like animal feed.
I don't know how much McDonald's-grade beef is on a cow, but I'm guessing the real numbers are how much non-McDonald's beef people are eating, divided by the average weight of cows
So wrong here. They grind trimmings, the same trimmings that are ground into ground beef that sits in the counters of your local retailer. I sell this shit and can guarantee you the McDonald's system is not my last option, those trimmings all make it into the food supply. Also you can't feed cow parts to food animals ,it's a BSE risk.
Looks like McDonald's changed their sourcing about 10 years ago. Now they use trimmings as you said; previously they used pink slime.
For the record, I never said (nor implied) that it would be fed to food animals. I was thinking more like dog food
Mcdonalds beef patties?
Or regular?
Coz they are thinner than a pickle slice these days
How big does this guy make his burgers that he needs the meat of more than 1 whole cow to make one? 🤔
It's one of those social media posts to get people who don't think for more than 10 milliseconds riled up.
Ham. Ya know, as in ham burgers. Duh!
It’s funny they think there is a significant amount of beef in a McDonalds burger. It’s mostly bread, chemical cheese and mayo derivatives.
Not to be that guy... but all cheese is chemical. You're chemicals. EVERYTHING IS CHEMICALS. Even Full Metal Alchemist got that.
I'm just so tired of misinformation, implying that one cheese that's 100% milk is cheese, but another cheese made with that same cheese plus emulsifiers and preservatives is "THE CHEMICALS." Call it processed, sure. But to imply you somehow have cheese that's not chemicals... is just, fundamentally wrong.
One time I asked a cow if he wanted to be slaughtered and chopped into meat to be cooked and sold by McDonalds.
He didn't ever answer me. Probably in account of the fact that cows don't speak english. It's just as well anyways. It's not like it would have changed anything. It's just cows opinion. It's a moo point.

Was it a transgender cow?
There's an informal definition for cow that can apply to either sex.
"do you really think that there are that many cows in the world?"
Well, not now, there aren't.
It's McPeople!
