If you class that as beef you need pitied
I strongly recommend some of Steve's dexter mince to make some proper
beefburgers
You may then begin to understand why the critic of BigMacs

It's sheer snobbery. Finest Argentinian beef. Quite lean, too - but
not so lean that it spoils the taste.

funnily, MacDonalds comments that all UK big macs are sourced from UK beef.
As you are x posted to uba, we can inform you that Macdonalds have a deal
with Kepak and Tesco, in that Tesco take the hind quarters and Macdonalds
the fore quarters.

This is all due to veggie propaganda. Have you tasted a BigMac?

actually I have tried them. I'm afraid I don't eat in MacDonalds because
the chips are rubbish, the big macs not as good (in my opinion) as stuff
available from their competitors. Irrationally though, I do like their
milk shakes, even through they are undoubtedly a disgusting chemical
cocktail that never saw milk, so I will occassionally go in for a Milk
Shake

Their vegetarian option is very good. ;-)

Not at all - they are oft criticised by those who have - and found them
wanting

A friend took me for a Big Mac, said he was pushing the boat out! I couldn't
get through it, it was awful.
I can't remember how it was served, just the texture and flavour. I've no
idea what a tasty wench is anyway.

But, like Jill and others on this ng, I'm used to the best. Of everything.

Evidence?

No way - why do you think they do so well all over the world?

Cost - convenience - marketing -
Because too few consumers are as discriminating as they should be ?

I think that too. Look at the bland bread, for instance, which people eat.
And vegetables. And ... almost everything ...

Yes, we make our own burgers from our own minced beef. Once you have eaten
beef burgers containing real minced beef (with spices but no rusk) the
others do tend to seem a bit wan

Indeed. I make ours from daughter's Traditional Herefords. They also happen
to be organically reared and live outdoors all year round, the animals are
30 months at kill (so far) and the meat hung for four weeks. I don't know
how much difference all this makes but I know they're far better than McD's.

BigMacs are only criticised by those who have never tried them.
Plus, they are available almost instantly at all hours of the night,
served by willing tasty wenches - something this ng lacks in
abundance, if that's possible.



I ate a Big Mac once (following constant nagging by accompanying
offspring),
and once was enough, thanks. It was dire, IMHO, and it was served by a
spotty surly youth.



I met a vegetarian once.
He was a ******.
What does that prove?


Nothing to do with the relative merits of various brands of burgers, that's
for sure.

I was meaning the Quorn burger.

Of course if that gives you wind - every sympathy; and yet you insist on
drinking those (vegetarian*) milk shakes. Must be terrible being ill after
eating vegetables, fruit, wine, beer, chocolate, cheese ... ;-)

*AFAIK not the Strawberry flavour
