McDonald’s is testing the use of fresh, never frozen beef for its Quarter Pounder hamburgers.
The fast food giant says the tests are being carried out in 75 of its restaurants in the Tulsa, Oklahoma-area. It says Quarter Pounders in the restaurants will be made with fresh beef that’s cooked when ordered. …

That must mean they are going to use real meat.
You mean there actually **IS** beef in those ??
Might taste a little funky with really old fresh meat.
Fresh real beef in hamburgers!? STOP THE PRESSES!!!
no horsey meat?
They get too many bad ideas from Europe already.
I don’t think my digestive system could handle that...
Smart move. They’ve fallen way behind the quality curve. And their addiction to the freezer has a lot to do with it.
Or you could go to Wendy’s, Five Guys, Culver’s or Steak ‘n’ Shake right now!
No. Not yet. They are just toying with the idea.
Here’s a suggestion for McDonald’s. Just make your burgers and fries exactly the way you did when Ray Kroc was alive, ‘cause you sure don’t now. We all know about the fries, but I swear in the original Egg McMuffin the Canadian bacon wasn’t translucent.
Charge more if you have to. We need to re-establish the baseline for you to be trusted.
about 90 percent of the beef shipped from the point of slaughter is shipped as boxed beef. Some is vacuum-packed, some is frozen. 99.9% of consumers don’t know how the product they buy in the store has been handled, unless you buy from a butcher or other shop that does it’s own processing locally.
It’s all good.
NO french fry in the past 6 months in ANY store in ANY of seven different states has been “good” ... all have been soggy, greasy, “wet” with grease = nothing is right. And the fries used to be the only thing tolerable at McD’s.
no horsey meat?
This never made sense. Horse meat, when it’s available, costs more per pound than beef.
I want to hear the front half of the steer mooing while the back half is in the grinder making my burger.
Bucket of Fries. That was a stroke of pure genius.
There hasn’t been real beef in McDonalds Burgers for a quite awhile. I go there as a last resort and to remind myself why I don’t go there any more.
