why would you people who eat fast food have issue with this?

If you guys payed slightest attention to what goes in that garbage you would think twice.

:roll: McDonalds make profit off selling double cheese Burgers for $1 lol :roll: Should be the first hint

 

anyways a lot nations in eourpe/asia eats horse meat.

And they use very little beef in their hamburgers. That combined with how cheap beef is in the US (thanks to ginormous government subsidies) is why they can sell them so cheap.

Maybe thats why Burger King is better than McDonalds. :P

 

Anyway, I dont know why the consumers would even trust those establishments. When I go there I always know I risk eating things I'm not supposed to. I only trust that they at least make whatever it is they are feeding me not harmful for my health.

Is this just in the UK? Horse meat is typically really expensive.

I'm glad they came out about it - we had our suspicions before, but hearing it from the horse's mouth is another thing entirely.

There's nothing actually wrong with the pink slime. It just sounds gross.

Where would you buy it legally, and where you know it's FDA approved?

I don't care what sort of meat they sell, but I don't like that they deny selling horse meat when they are doing it.. they should face some serious consequences for flat out lying to customers and misleading people about what they are eating.

horsemeat will look like a freaking luxury item one of these days when we are all getting by on mealworms.
