Feck me, you lot can whine about fuck all, if you don't like the food somewhere, don't eat there, if someone else likes it, good for them, it really doesn't matter.

Re: Can we have an "Unpopular Opinion" thread?
They make them of ground up beef. Ground up in a factory where you can't see it. I am sure it meets hygene standards, but probably falls far short of what Tom Kerridge or I would accept as 'good' beef.Mr. Dazzle wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 4:13 pm I'd like to know what exactly people think McDonalds are putting in their burgers
They are what they are. Certainly the least likely to give you Norovirus at that price, at the side of the road
Can't remember who it was - probably you - that pointed out how strict McD are on cleanliness etc.

Meh, Kerridge is perfectly happy to stick his name on factory produced stuff for M&S now

It's also weirdly two faced how chefs like that will sneer at supposed "factory meat", then lovingly talk about making stocks, broths and stews from long slow cooking of carcasses and bones

Ginster are shite. And hard to get a decent pasty in Cornwall. All tourist shite.Cousin Jack wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 3:19 pmPasties??? Pasties have pieces of real beef, if it is minced it is a pie. Even if it is pasty-shaped it is still a pie. Yes, I am looking at you Ginster!
Philps pasties in Hayle are shite

A play on words
A M.A.S.H. up, perhaps?

Re: Can we have an "Unpopular Opinion" thread?
I worked alongside them for 5 years - McDs owned stores are very strict ( the franchise ones - M6 Toll Road South , can be questionable). Their burgers are beel - produced in millions, using local beef in each country - no soy, no filler, no onion or rusk as per the burger van.Mr. Dazzle wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 4:13 pmI'd like to know what exactly people think McDonalds are putting in their burgers

Because of the scale they buy at, they can sell at the prices they do.
Unlike Tom Kerrodge who used to start his shift with pint of Negroni. Who do you think pays for that?

But chips cooked in vegetable oil are vegan and therefore healthy.
