All McDonald's hamburgers are made of beef. Nothing else. Just 100 percent beef, made from whole cuts of forequarter and flank (the same as a good mince you'd buy in the supermarket). All McDonald's adds is a pinch of salt and pepper after cooking.

233. Precisely what parts of what animals go into your burgers?
McDonald's only uses whole cuts of forequarter and flank of 100 percent beef. McDonald’s UK source nearly all the meat from farmers in the UK and Ireland. McDonald's has a policy to source the beef locally wherever possible and last year over 16,000 British and Irish farmers supplied us with beef. In times of particularly high demand the company also source from farms in the European Union. Any overseas suppliers of course meet or exceed the stringent quality standards McDonald's sets as done for those in the UK.

236. you say you give a straight answer,well you didnt actually answer the question about the hundreds of different cattle used in burgers...is it true?
Like burgers and mince from other large food companies or your local butcher, there might be beef from more than one animal in McDonald's hamburger patties. Let's get this in perspective - there is milk from more than one cow in a carton of milk and juice from more than one orange in a carton of orange juice. The key point here is that all the meat we use is great quality. The company source from over 16,000 British and Irish farms, all producing to the same industry leading standards.
