Hold on a minute. Why do people enjoy Mcdonalds? I'll tell you why by using the Big Mac Meal as a benchmark.
Sweet, salty, sharp, savoury, umami. That's what I get when I bite in to a Big Mac. Bread and relish for sweetness, relish and gherkins for saltyness and sharpness, burgers for savoury beefyness and umami. Texturally it is a delight with the crunch from the pickles and the soft bread/burger combination.
The fries are simply excellent. Salty, crisp and soft at the same time, great flavour.
Washed down with a sweet, cold soft drink.
All that for £3.89. Warm, tasty and quick.
It's much better than eating a pre-packed, stodgy sandwhich made in factory conditions with re-formed meat on a production line. Just because it has nice packaging does not mean it is good food. Yes Mcdonalds is reformed, processed dirt but at least it tastes good!

If you don't like it, fine. But to say that it is mechanical slurry sh!t is way off the mark.
A gourmet meal or haute cuisine it isn't, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with the quality of the individual components, the suppliers, or how the stuff is put together. If Jamie Oliver set out to do a hatchet job on McDonalds, along the same lines as his turkey twizzlers, he would have to give up, admit defeat and acknowledge he was wrong.
Yes, it's unhealthy in as much as it is a burger and fries, but a burger and fries from a Michelin starred restaurant will be no better, and there's no way it could taste as good
Propaganda worthy of Goebbels here...

Yummy! The 'fungal enzymes' and 'dimethylpolysiloxane' particularly set my mouth watering!
Nonetheless, I would defend your right to eat this factory processed industrial sub-food should you choose to, to my last breath just as I am sure you would defend my right to not consider it fit to feed my dog!

Damn! Busted!Yes, my name is Warren, and I am a junk food junkie. It started off harmless enough, I was a teenager back in the seventies, and all we had back then was Wimpy, my dad used to take me there, when the Golden Egg had closed down. I thought I could handle it. It wasn't hard core, like going to London and doing McDonalds, or 'M' as the other kids called it, which wasn't available in the provinces. Then I went to live in the States for a while, and started doing 'M' a little more regularly, again, I thought I could handle it. I experimented with Wendys, Burger King, hell, I even tried Arbys. But I always came back to 'M', it was calling me. Upon my return to the UK, I found that the availability of 'M' had spread across the country, it was increasingly popular, for recreational purposes, and every town now seemingly had a dealer. I couldn't live without it, even driving into the City centre late at night, just for a fix. And now, here I am, thirty years later, and the craving is still there. "Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun". There was no escape, I tried to fight it, but lacked the willpower. Yes, I am weak. Weak willed, weak minded. Pathetic.
And now, here I am, my head bowed, and you sit in judgement. But you weren't there, you don't know what it's like........man.

They are a long way from the best burgers, but they are significantly better than just about anything you will buy from a supermarket which have a lower meat percentage and far more filler and usually MRM.skeggysteve said:

He is talking rubbish. McDonald's burgers are better than the worst that you can find at the cheap end of supermarket burgers, but they are a long way from the best you could buy.You could try reading 'Fast Food Nation'- at times McDonalds have been the good guys. But, to claim 'best' is far from true.
