How do americans know that KFC is giving us real chicken or McDonalds is offering real beef?
atum-re B asked:
and how do we know that WHITE CASTLES burgers is beef and not raccon or rat meat, i’ve even heard that they are even cooking kangaroo burgers, are we to trust the USDA?
I honestly don’t think that there are that many cows or chickens in the world to make up to our daily consumptions.

No we’re not
Don’t eat meat and YOU don’t have to wonder what you’re eating, just what everyone ELSE is eating
Danish K said... 4:17 am - October 22nd, 2007

ianperry95 said... 5:59 am - October 24th, 2007
Just the thing, we dont
Joe J said... 8:39 am - October 24th, 2007
it really doesnt matter, its all the same thing but in your mind its all different because youve been fed cow meat since you were little so its normal to you just like eating tarantulas in some parts of cambodia is normal to them, because theyve been doing it since they were little.
Dawanna C. said... 6:56 pm - October 25th, 2007
well hey if its not what they say it is it cant be that harmfull because we continue to eat it
Dianne said... 6:04 am - October 29th, 2007
We don’t know. Don’t go there. Ever! That food is gross.
tickled blue said... 1:11 pm - October 31st, 2007
there is real beef and real chicken in those products…..but the vast amounts of other things included in with the chicken or beef is what is scary.
raver_poof said... 4:53 am - November 2nd, 2007
We don’t.
You just gotta hope that what you’re eating is what they claim it is.
Tiffany said... 9:40 pm - November 4th, 2007
Thats crazy talk. Now I would question the chicken nuggets, and really what the hell is up with mall food?

skandalouz said... 11:47 am - November 10th, 2007
Honestly, you don’t know! All those rules FDA makes- there are ways around them. We might be eating dogs for all we know! Unless you raise and kill it yourself- you can’t know for sure!

God… some people are so stupid. They trust everything they read on the internet. Get your news from the Onion do you?
Equus said... 12:37 am - November 12th, 2007
If you want to know what is in McDonald’s food, I suggest you watch supersize me. You can’t be sure of what they use in restaurants, or weather or not its fresh. That’s why I don’t eat out often, unless it’s expensive restaurants where I know they have good quality food. Also some cheap chinese places use rat meat instead of chicken, because it resembles chicken mean, and there isn’t much difference in taste.
That Guy said... 7:40 pm - November 13th, 2007
If it isn’t chicken or beef, what is it? No really, did you ever go to Mexico? Have carne de burro?.
It is real chicken, maybe not the most healthy but it is real.
Because if they weren’t serving real beef or chicken, they stood to lose Hundreds of millions of dollars, and they wouldn’t do that. Plus McDonald’s is not in the burger business, they are a real estate company (they own the land that the McD’s are built on and lease it back to the owner. that is how they make their money)
wiki whoop said... 9:27 pm - November 15th, 2007
i am a manager at kfc and trust me.. they sell real chickens. they come in these blue lugs filled with blood and 10 bags each containing 16 pcs of chicken. i grew up on a farm where we killed our own chickens and other animals so the blood doesnt bother me at all. as for mcdonalds, their patties that are on their hamburgers / cheeseburgers / double cheeseburgers etc are made of soy. however, their quarter pounder patties and the patties that are a bit more beefy are actually real meat. as for other places, i dunno. but they taste yummy!!

the italian idol said... 5:53 am - November 23rd, 2007
you don’t. and now people say you can run your car on vinegar + soda + cooking oil = biodiesel. if true, we could have been doing it long long time ago but nobody said it could be done and these evil oil companies wouldnt earn a dime. people just take everybody else to be fools. they do it just for a laugh or take your money.
Vicki H said... 6:17 pm - November 23rd, 2007
Sadly enough, yes we are to just trust the USDA and if you don’t then I suggest you don’t eat there. I guess it would be cheaper to just buy beef then trying to find and ship kangaroo burgers…lol
CaliGirl said... 1:14 pm - November 24th, 2007
Because of the commercial that says its real chicken and the sticker on my cheeseburger wrapper that says 100% beef.
Duh.
John D said... 8:41 am - November 27th, 2007
Ever hear of chemistry? Well you can analyze things to see what is in it. And yeah KFC is chicken and McDonalds burgers are made from beef as is White Castle’s.

gigglygirl said... 9:53 am - December 3rd, 2007
mcdonalds doesnt serve real beef they serve sponges mixed with old mayonaise. kfc doesnt serve real chicken they serve fried toes with salt. brainpoop/pacoatemytaco.org. it explains everything about food, cars, ant eaters, and of course elephants. have fun!
Woo!23 said... 4:43 am - December 4th, 2007
Um, well I’m not sure… but really that shit is so nasty.. like have you seen Supersize Me? seriously, that crap is no good….. but oh well what can you do. It does taste good.
alicia said... 1:12 pm - December 7th, 2007
People are just happy not knowing somethings. And kangaroo meat is poison….thats how i know we are not eating it.
twilightwishes7 said... 7:06 pm - December 7th, 2007
Fast food is mainly processed in a large factory which means that they can add whatever they want to the so called meat, as long as a large percentage of it is meat. The Chicken McNuggets at Mcdonald’s are absolutely disgusting. They use fatty chicken meat, add loads of sodium and preservatives, then deep fry it and freeze dry it.
If you really wanted real meat, you would be grilling up your own burgers and chicken and not eating out at some gross, greasy and disgusting fast food restaurant.
Fernando said... 10:45 am - December 9th, 2007
I think Kangaroo burgers would be more expensive than cow! : )
Amanda M said... 5:53 am - December 11th, 2007

Coopski26 said... 9:13 pm - December 11th, 2007
Oh its real chicken alright at KFC. Tortured dirty chicken.
Lauren S said... 7:27 pm - December 13th, 2007
It’s all mystery meat
Gia Lucia said... 10:13 pm - December 15th, 2007
when it comes down to it no one really knows what goes on or how your food is prepared at fast food restaurants, that’s why it is best to prepare your own. However, by law places that serve food have to go through inspection by an organization that i forgot the name of i learned about it in history though and that is how it is tracked.
omfg16 said... 9:12 pm - December 18th, 2007
ew ew ew ew im neverrrrrrrr eating out again after seeing the answers to this question AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

gunitscoolhippo1112 said... 10:57 am - December 20th, 2007
cause im sure theres people that have absoulty no life and there going to buy chicken and burgers from mickey d’s and analyze them now. plus the compaines would loose millions and millions of dollars in the lawsuit of WHOLE WORLD vs. McDonalds owners. that would be pretty bad…..plus they taste good so whoo cares!
pablo_asawa said... 6:19 pm - December 23rd, 2007
No. there are many cases of downers cattle that is used in the production of fast food hamburgers and also sold for home consumption.
As far a raccoon or rat meat it would not be economically viable
unless you owned a Chinese Restaurant and then its
protein is protein.
White Castle is beef but it has a lot of fillers and gristle and
W.C. grinds up a lot of bones too..
Eat what you want but in the end you never know for sure?

Kamikaze Watermelon said... 6:53 pm - January 3rd, 2008
this is why i never get take-away food
Edg1 said... 9:15 pm - January 6th, 2008
Raccoons? Are you kidding? Where would they get that many from? Where is the giant rat farm too?
I know what chicken looks like, you can’t fake that unless they are recycling the bones from the trash and somehow hanging rat meat on them. That would be time consuming and not profitable in the least. If you think they are doing that though you should break every bone into several little pieces.

McDonald’s isn’t real anything. I think KFC and chicken places are real chicken. I KNOW Chick-fil-A is real
Tiff A said... 5:49 pm - January 12th, 2008
First of all if you can go to a science lab and do testing or do some of your self by tasting chicken you bought and if you know someone from KFC ask them to make it for you with that chicken. And they do have health departments they would shut them down .
And raccoons!!!!Yuck.What is White Castles??Are they sick.
1:43 pm - October 16th, 2007
