- 16. I've heard that meat for your burger is made up of cows brains, testicals and penis. Can you confirm this is 100% true?
-
No, McDonald's can't confirm this as true, because it isn't. All McDonald's hamburgers are made of beef. Nothing else just 100 percent beef, made from whole cuts of forequarter and flank (similar to the mince you'd buy in the supermarket). All that's added is a pinch of salt and pepper after cooking.

People keep asking how many cows go into one burger and there is the same generic response, like an advertisement. HOW MANY COWS ARE IN ONE BURGER?? Give me a number, NOT A GENERIC RESPONSE. Obviously you are trying to avoid the question by diverting the topic to orange juice.

McDonald's is not trying to evade a direct answer and is sorry that you feel that this is the case; the reference to orange juice and milk was simply used for illustrative purposes. Beef is delivered from the approved abattoirs in bulk and will be made up a forequarter and flank cuts from a number of beef animals. Therefore, it is impossible to answer the question precisely. In the same way, if you buy a multi-pack of chicken pieces or a pack of mince in your local supermarket, then these will be sourced from any number of animals and packaged as one. (June 2007)

What are these? Delicious Digg Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon - 18. you say that the beef is 100% but you still dont say what is in the burgers. did you know that if you leave one of your burgers out in the open air after half an hour mold starts growing on top. so the real question is what is in your burgers not your beef?

McDonald’s beef patties are indeed 100 percent beef. There’s absolutely nothing else added, apart from a pinch of salt and pepper after cooking. Other contents of McDonald’s sandwiches, such as cheese, are detailed online in the ‘Eat Smart’ section of www.mcdonalds.co.uk.
