Comment on McDouble is 'cheapest and most nutritious food in human history'

Comments

I enjoy an occasional McDonald's burger. But my biggest concern is what's in it. E.g up until 2011 their hamburgers had "pink slime"[1] in them.[2] Yummy!

That fact alone leads me to be concerned that McDonald's approach to my health could be akin to "whack a mole". They dropped the slime after everyone made a big stink about it. What else is still in there that I don't know about?

Contrast to Chipotle, which McDonald's used to own a major stake in. I can actually see Chipotle cut the steak they use into little pieces, I can actually see them carry that steak out to the serving line.
