CTW Members Belle Posted August 4, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted August 4, 2003 it really is [censored]! i'm reading a book called 'fast food nation' and it's all about the birth of the franchise, McDonalds stars in this book!! I will never ever eat anything from there again, based on the fact that most of what you are tasting is made in chemical laboratories the author of the book did a taste test, closed his eyes and a dabber was put in front of his nose with 'hamburger aroma' on it, and he could have sworn that someone was flipping burgers in the room from the scent the fact that the french fries contain more beef fat than their burgers is alarming even the shakes, strawberry sauce all simulated crap!

Tis a good book Belle said: I will never ever eat anything from there again, based on the fact that most of what you are tasting is made in chemical laboratories And how is that different form tons of other processed food and drink that you eat? Belle said:the fact that the french fries contain more beef fat than their burgers is alarming They don't contain beef fat anymore ever since many many customers got very narked off at this beased on the fact that they were vegetarians and vegans. Belle said: even the shakes, strawberry sauce all simulated crap! And you were expecting what at that price and at mcDonald's? freshly pureed and blended fruit? You get what you pay for basically, it's cheap, it's fast, and to most people tastes edible. Obviously it aint't the healthiest food in the world but it's not going to do you any harm either as long as you dont stuff yourself with it three times a day. To be honest if you couldn't tell the difference beforehand and quite happily ate it and it ain't gonna harm you, then what difference does it make now that you know more about it? I've known what they do and stuff for a long time and as long as it don't make me sick i'm quite happy to carry on munching on maccy d's Quote ~fighting for peace is like f***ing for virginity... *Gordy* msn: maladjustedfreak@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members Belle Posted August 7, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted August 7, 2003 now the fries are cooked in 100% vegetable oil, but in the processing, beef flavouring is added, to make them taste like they used to I suppose the 100% pure beef on the package screws us into thinking that we're actually eating meat, like what you grind up in your kitchen when it's not at all what you're eating, funny how they don't publish the % of filler in their products.... Or the fact that my milkshake is called 'strawberry', would actually mean that it has just a bit of real strawberries in it. The fact that it's all false, and thru documented evidence, it's spelled out. That changes it for me. The fact that the beefy tasting burger I eat isn't the same makeup, in any way, as what is made in my restaurant, that changes it for me. Just the thought of having another hamburger from a fast food place makes me gag! And it's how far down the lane of processed food they've been allowed to go.......that scares me! Maybe I shouldn't have read that book. I understand that most of what we eat is artificially flavoured, but I guess as I said above, having it spelled out makes a difference in how I look at it.

CTW Members Shenlong Posted August 7, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted August 7, 2003 Fair enough then, i guess i just have a stronger stomach for stuff like this i guess! i have kinda become innured to it doing an industrial biology degree where i learn a fair bit about what goes in in the food business. But yeah if i had the choice i would much rather eat at say my mum or my dad's restaurant where i would be guaranteed that all the meaty looking bits in my food are actually meat! Sorry if i sounded patronising or anything, glad it wasn't taken the wrong way Quote ~fighting for peace is like f***ing for virginity... *Gordy* msn: maladjustedfreak@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
