Werd; if something says to send it to 10 people and then those people send it to 10 more, it's probably a hoax.

The beef has been coming from NZ and Aus which has arguably the best bovine products available. NZ beef and dairy is amazing.

THAT is hard to imagine...and may be more of a testimonial to the others in the......"fast food breakfast race". As Joe Redskin appropriately penned, "like eating a Lard-wich > <".
This shit should carry a Surgeon Generals Warning label, and be served with a Heart Stint kit, and instructions to use it....healthologically speaking

No really, fast food is gross. I'm not a closet fast food eater I would freely admit it if I liked it. I did like it at one point, when I was a teenager and could get away with eating just about anything, and of course I didn't know any better either.

I can eat it and all of those other fast foods that I named. The problems is that five minutes after it's down it comes out one way or another. Burger King is the worst. I don't know what it is because I cook and eat bacon or sausage every other morning. So it isn't the grease. I think they use some kind of environmentally safe BS to cook the food in.

I'd perfer McDonald's to use US beef but if he is right and American beef is the best in the world they should have plenty of people wanting their product.

dont you sell insurance? what if the U.S. allowed competition from any 3rd world country, that paid their people 7.00 per/ day? you guys would be crying, and business would suck. i very rarely eat there any ways. this just gives me more reason to skip them. like i have said in other threads, just buy American

I can freely admit that there ARE some things served at this or that fast food joint that are......GOOD. That is their goal...you know, and sometimes they are successful. But, I rarely eat it, because you cannot spin what they serve healthy, or a reasonable facimile

Glad you have confidence in those "regulations" because they sure are under fire these days. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/04/health/04meat.html

You have it all wrong they buy cancerous cows.
Or wait I thought it was worm meat.

Wendy's is feeding us Styrofoam and Arby's beef is a jello block before they cook it.

So I'm assuming the better question to ask... Since all these places foods are comparable to toxic waste...

If you DO have to eat fast food or get a quick meal, where do you prefer?

If you have not looked lately just about everyone and their brother are now selling ins. Alot of the co's out source customer service to places like India so I do compete against that. I do loose business to companies like that but I find that they also drive business back to me after customers have to deal with their claims and customer service. It actually makes them better customers because they now appreciate our services more and they know they can pick up the phone or come buy and talk directly to their agent and not some 800 number.

We have a place here called U-food. They advertise healthy fast food. Nothing fried, preservatives, pesticides, hormones, etc.
A little pricey, BUT KICK ASS stuff. I would not have believed that baked fries could taste like that. As good as McD's
