Did Jamie Oliver Prove McDonald’s Burgers
Are Unfit for Human Consumption?

An outdated controversy about McDonald's use of beef treated with ammonium hydroxide resurfaced on social media.

David Emery

Published 22 January 2018

Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver proved that the meat in McDonald's hamburgers is "unfit for human consumption" due to the use of beef trimmings treated with bacteria-killing ammonium hydroxide.

Healthy food supporter Jamie Oliver took on the biggest fast food joint in the world, and he won.

He managed to get the multi national corporation to admit that their burger meat was sub-standard and have vowed to change it.

Oliver highlighted how McDonald’s used ammonium hydroxide to ‘wash’ their beef before it was made into hamburgers, in order to make it fit for human consumption, without this stage the food would not have been legal to sell by nationwide standards. Meat that has not been treated in this way is usually used for dog and cat food.

The ammonium hydroxide is used as an anti-microbial agent which basically acts as a catalyst to turn ‘inedible’ meat into burgers.

Oliver said:

“Basically, we’re taking a product that would be sold in the cheapest way for dogs, and after this process, is being given to human beings.”

I did a 4-week diet of no junk food or alcohol. In the last week, my stomach started getting it regular growls again and I restarted enjoying food. I had a few nights drinking moderately. Then I had Red Rooster the following night. I felt worse for the experience. Now, I have to reacquaint myself with good health. But, I can remember that I have never felt good after eating at McDonalds. McDonalds is an emergency feed. Not a meal.

You have to know the Chinese shops before you can trust them.
I once lived near an Asian part of Melbourne and
I got food poisoning 5 times in the space of 3 years from the takeaway shops there.
Once I went behind some shops there
and I saw restaurant meat being thawed out in the hot sun in a back alley way.
There were stray cats sniffing around it.
Most of those Asians have no idea about food hygiene.
I don't know how they get a license?

I actually agree. I have only had one or two bad meals out of the hundreds I have had at McDonalds since I started eating there as a teen. Chinese takeaway stores have given me a dozen bad food experiences in the 50 times I have eaten there.

The old big mac is currently about 50% more healthy than it was originally. It is about half the size it was in the beginning.

Anyone remember when a big mac looked like the product in the pictures ?

Big Macs are healthier now than they were 20-something years ago due to the health regulations of today. If you want a Big Mac back in the 1990s, they would have one already prepared waiting in the warmer. These days, you have to wait the 2 minutes for the burger to be freshly prepared.

As for size of the Big Macs, they have always looked the same size to me. Are you talking about pre-1990s Big Macs from McDonalds?

I heard a story once about Hungry Jacks -

the mayonnaise was so old that it had black fungus growing on top of it
so the boss just removed the worst bits with a spoon
and served the rest of the can up for the burgers.

Pizzas are very high in calories.
I got a very small frozen pizza from the supermarket and was horrified
to see in small print on the back of the cardboard container that it was close to 6,000 calories.
The WHO recommends that we eat 1,800 calories per day to be healthy.

You could eat an entire pizza for yourself and you would be hungry 6 hours later. Pizza is a middle ground fast food in terms of calories. Not as fattening as the fried chicken or Maccas. But not as good as Subway or other healthier options. I would not really know these days as I am on a health bender.

2500 calories are the recommended weight maintenance calorie intake per day. Domino's pizza is 1386 calories per pizza. But that is for the highest calorie pizza on the Domino's menu. You are getting half your recommended daily calorie intake from one pizza.

I might have.

There are 4.184kJ in 1 food calorie (kcal). To roughly convert kilojoules to calories, divide your kJ figure by 4.2 or multiply it by 0.24.

we can see that trump is a very strong drug for the weak man , but you are at risk of overdosing on the big fella.

"None of you — not a single one of you — can look away," Donald Trump wrote in 2015, as he campaigned for the Republican nomination.

He was talking about just how absorbed we were becoming in the drama of an orange-tinted reality TV celebrity running for President.

"Donald Trump stories were a source of commonality in a world where there wasn't much," said Licciardello, a co-host of Planet America.

"It's not how wild and unpredictable he was, although that certainly was [part of it].

"I think he is the last remaining thing we all have in common. And I think people will miss that."

Trump - the alleged child rapist - is a very dangerous, very evil person; this has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt.

There is a slim chance that he might run for, and win, the Presidency in 2024.

To simply ignore him would be the worst thing in the world that anyone could do.

He needs to be exposed every single day of the year as the total POS he is in the hope that some voters will actually come to their senses.

He is dangerous, he is insane, he is a wannabe dictator, and will do anything he possibly can to destroy democracy and the USA.

I'm doing the US, and the world, a favour by exposing his many crimes on a regular basis.

Two times a year would be my absolute maximum.

Late last year, after a long night sitting with my father who looked like he was going to pass away, I went to a McDonald's at about 6 am on a Saturday morning and purchased, and stupidly ate, a Big Brekkie Burger.

I felt sick all day Saturday and didn't come right until about lunchtime Sunday.

Their food is absolutely disgusting.

My hang over meal was usually Red Rooster half chicken and chips, peas and gravy. Washed down with a Coca Cola. I had those just about every week that I was basically on a first name basis with the northside stores. After going sober for a month, I decided to see if I could handle another one of those meals. Normally, after eating the meal after being hungover, I just go to bed and sleep it off until the next morning -- not feeling the slightest bit ill during the night. But, sober me found it hard going to get through a whole meal.

With Maccas, it is an emergency feed if I cannot get home in time to cook or prepare a meal in a minute. I can eat a Big Mac, fries, and have a drink no problem just about every time. But, being sober, I cannot seem to be motivated to go to one of the nearby McDonalds stores around town. It seems that McDonalds is reliant on drunken people to keep their business profitable. It might not seem like much being that I live in the town with the most pubs per capita. However, you will find that McDonalds probably set up a restaurant very near a bottle shop or pub.

I eat Maccas like a couple of times a year, if that.

I get a burger with no sauce or mayo, I think it's a classic angus, and order at the counter and specifically ask for no sauce or mayo, it's not good but not terrible.

A few weeks ago kid was starving and was a while from home, got him the smallest burger, small fries and a softserve, have no idea if it was on special but all that was just $4. Considering how healthy he eats normally, I have no problem with that being a once every few months thing for him but I won't sell it as a treat.

Hubby and I --> same deal. So we made the decision to stop buying Maccas. It just wasn't worth it. Feeling sick straight after eating it was a red flag 🚩

Fast-Food Diet May Cause ‘Irreversible’ Brain Damage

The authors of a new study suggest you may begin to lose neurons and neuron function early in life if you eat poorly, and such changes may be difficult, if not impossible, to counteract once the damage is done.

Story at a glance:

People today are consuming about 650 kilocalories more daily than they were in the 1970s, an amount equivalent to a fast-food meal consisting of a burger, fries and soft drink.
Poor diet and lack of activity may lead to “normal” but elevated blood glucose levels, even in people without Type 2 diabetes, contributing to neurodegenerative processes.
“High normal” blood sugar levels may progress to impaired fasting glucose and, eventually, Type 2 diabetes; impaired glucose metabolism is then associated with neurodegeneration that impairs cognitive function.
The authors of the featured study suggested that you may begin to lose neurons and neuron function early in life if you eat poorly, and such changes may be difficult, if not impossible, to counteract once the damage is done; the sooner you start focusing your diet on whole, unprocessed foods, the better.

Eating fast food — the epitome of highly processed “fake” foods — can have lasting ramifications on your brain health, so much so that researchers at Australian National University suggested you can cause “irreversible” damage by the time you reach middle age, just by eating a fast-food diet and not staying active.

I do not believe that the occasional hamburger is going to kill anyone, but a steady diet of meat, white bread, and coca cola might. You don't have to be a sensitive new age diet freak to know that. But what pisses me off about McDonalds is the way they market their "food" to children. Look at the happy clown! He's so friendly! Lets go play on the slide. Ruin their taste buds for more complex flavours with heavy doses of salt, fat, and sugar. American/Anglo/Australian cuisine, the worst of all worlds But never mind, there's always Ronald McDonald House for children with neurological problems.

Big food in conjunction with big pharma in conjunction with big health

Have no interest in your health

The fatter you are
The more diseases you have
The more coin they make

What I object to is government agencies going along with this crap
And
For instance
The American food and drug administration recommending processed breakfast cereals over eggs

And Cheerios over fresh meat

It is incredibly profitable to sell people processed carbohydrates
And processed soy protein

It is catastrophic for their health
But making things like the cow the subject of a smear campaign
Saying that it causes global warming for god sake
Organising no meat Mondays and Fridays at public schools in democratic states in America
To virtue signal about saving the planet
Whilst filling kids up on process carbohydrates
Is close to an act of genocide

I had a Red Rooster "Triple Rippa Roll" combo meal last night. It turned out that I felt the roll was more nutritious than other rolls and burgers. I realise that it had plenty of fat and salt in the roll. Perhaps it was because I was starving and had to get a quick meal before I crashed. But, it was the large chips and Coca Cola I had after the roll that probably did me no favours.

The Big Mac meal I had the other week was just something I wanted to have after not eating one of those in over a year. Sure, I have been to Red Rooster getting those half combo meals and sides added each week for over a year -- and I am sick of the chicken. But, going back to McDonalds for the first time in a long time, I was not impressed by the quality or taste of the meal. The only upside to that night was that I received a half price meal because I waited 10 minutes to be served.

When you eat poor nutrition like McDonalds, all you do is make yourself hungry again sooner, even though you are still digesting a meal from hours ago. If you prepare healthy meals with low salt, low sugar and low fat, your body might crave salt, sugar and fat. But, over time, your body adjusts its metabolism so that you need to eat less and expend energy efficiently. McDonalds meals promote the opposite effect.

There were two things he wouldn't eat, even when he was VERY hungry

He loved his beef, but wouldn't the eat the "meat" in a Hungry Jack's Whopper, or a McDonald's Bic Mac

And he loved fish, but he wouldn't touch a seafood stick that came from any fish and chip shop.

If your dog won't eat it - it's a pretty good guide of what YOU shouldn't be eating

Funny thing, though, our dogs Fionnlagh, Burnham and Keegan (the three month old puppy) had no problems wolfing down any of that new 100% vegetable based 'Beyond Meat' stuff we'd bought to try, just out of curiosity

For the record, I wouldn't buy it again

I used to eat meat a lot years ago… now I hardly eat it but love a good old fashioned BBQ.

This plant based meat… a couple weeks ago… after the gym I felt peckish… I had a fruit before for Brekky…
I decided I felt like being naughty and stop at red rooster for fries with gravy!
Went to go in and the door was locked due to being understaffed :-?

So next to them was Hungry Jacks…. I went in… then I see this new type burger in brioche bun…
I sat down…then took a couple mouthfuls … I wondered what was wrong with my taste buds… I couldn’t taste the meat… I thought my pre covid problem of having lost my taste had come back to haunt me!

No… it was that horrible whatever it was … I felt like I was doing my constitution a disservice.
I felt weird and regretful and it isn’t cheap!
Made a vow never again… and I won’t tell my son becoz he would tell me off for going in to eat “poison” :(

The penultimate burger I tasted was late one Sunday evening and I still had work to do. Wondered down to Rundle Mall to see what was available. A burger, forget which chain. They were closing up so gave me some onion rings for free.

No taste in burger or onion rings. Amazing—no taste, lousy nutritional benefit—they sell millions of them every day!

The burger on Boxing Day—tiny, orange cheese. Salad was iceberg lettuce and supermarket tomato. How do so many people eat this poo?

its probably not cats but it is low quality.

humans were meant to be hungry and to have to work for their food.

they might come across a mango tree in the jungle once a year and the sweet taste was meant to trigger a desire to gorge.
this had survival effects.
the person who could gorge most, might store enough fat to survive the winter.
so sugar induces a biological drive to gorge and store fat.

same with fats and same with salt.
you might not get much fat and when you killed a wild pig, the fat made you go crazy in storage mode. a wolf eats like that. 25 kg of meat and then hungry for a fortnight.

our problem is sugar and fat are available 24/7 and the food manufactureres know that adding sugar and fat to everything triggers gorging and they shift more product.

a crispy creme donut is about perfect.
a burger on a bun with a bit of sugar in the bun (thats why they have to call it a bun and not a bread roll), plenty of sugar in the ketchup, the right ammount of grease in the pattie (trans fat slides down really well ) and people are hooked.

Hi Bobby

I get free eggs and almost free bacon and there is an avocado glut at the moment

You can have a big plate of bacon eggs and avocado for about 1/3 the cost of a big Mac
And you will feel awesome

I'm fascinated by the number of young people at the servo who buy red bulls in the morning
They obviously aren't sleeping well

When the red bulls stop working
I imagine a lot of them graduate to ice to get themselves going in the morning
Certainly a lot of tradies seem to be on ice

That's the problem with these quick fixes
Feeling tired
Snort some ice
Feeling hungry
Pack down a big Mac
Getting fat
Take a diet pill or get your stomach stapled

Not happy with the attention you're getting on Instagram
Get a tattoo or change your gender

Feeling poor
Go to Kmart and buy lots of useless Chinese junk

You can have a quality life
You can get up at 5 a.m.
Have your bacon and eggs and avocado
Hit the gym
Put in an awesome days work
Smile at every customer
Attract a quality woman
Be nurtured
Sleep like a baby

But it requires a degree of effort and discipline

And if there's one thing we know about modern man
It's that he is a sloppy individual who is always looking for a shortcut
Always looking to get out of work
And always following the path of least resistance

The downward spiral to chode purgatory

If you seriously want my advice Bobby do this

Get your health in perfect order because the public hospital system is about to collapse
Make sure you have good friends to look after you when you get old because the aged care system is about to collapse
Get a generator and 50 l of fuel because we are in for a period of energy interruption
Make sure you have good security
Either try to live in a gated community or obtain a weapons licence
Have 1 months supply of tinned food on hand at all times

I think for anyone living in the city the chances of a serious meltdown are all orders of magnitude more likely to take you out then kovid ever was

I did not worry about kovid for 1 second
But what is going on with the Ukraine and with the instability of world financial markets
And particularly the instability of energy availability would make any sensible person begin immediate preparations for self reliance

We saw in kovid that the authorities were rather useless
We have seen hacks of Optus and Medibank Private
I can guarantee you that hacking our electricity supply would be a piece of cake

Anthony Albany z isn't going to personally come and distribute a generator and food to every Australian and neither is Daniel Andrews
The population will start behaving like the Apex gang very quickly if this incredibly fragile ecosystem receives a major shock and I can't see any way we are going to avoid a major shock

People just don't want to think about it because they are all super anxious
Kovid showed us just how anxious people are
And how much they are incapable of self reliance

If it was a full-on nuclear war
What sense is there in being a prepper
I would advise going and jumping off the nearest tall building or hoping that a nuke landed on top of your house
So it would be best to perish as soon as possible

A far more likely situation is that a foreign power or a foreign cyber terrorism group will shut down the power grid
Or shut down banking facilities
Or there will be an inability to import fuel for 3 months

I would consider that reasonably likely

If any of those things happen there is going to be a period of chaos in large cities
Think about a situation where you cannot access your credit card and your power is out for 4 weeks
No running water
No petrol able to be pumped at the servo
You could seriously be in a lot of trouble if you do not have at least the basics covered for a month

For under $1,000 you can have enough fuel a generator enough tinned food and maybe a rainwater tank and some means to protect yourself

Do you really want to be down at the local Woolworths in the dark
Trying to smash your way into the store next to the machete wielding Apex gang
To secure a supply of baked beans

It's not prepping for Doomsday it's just a sensible insurance policy

If you don't use it you can always go camping for a couple of weeks in The great outdoors

I can remember when a big Mac looked like the burger in the picture.

I can buy 500 grams of beef and make 4 burgers with a patty the size of a quarter pounder, that works because a 1/4 pound is a bit over 100 grams. It sounds like more than it is.

The original junior burger bun was probably bigger than the current big mac bun.

A McDonald's made a pair of 10-year-olds work without pay and
sometimes until 2 a.m., federal authorities say

Matthew Loh
Wed, May 3, 2023

A McDonald's made 10-year-olds work for no pay and until 2 a.m., per the Labor Department.

The franchisee told Insider that the kids were visiting their parent, who worked as a night manager.

The children would work the register and drive-thru, and one kid was allowed to use a deep fryer.

Bauer Food was fined $39,711, the department said.

Another two McDonald's operators —
Archways Richmond and Bell Restaurant Group —
were also fined for allowing minors to work beyond legally permitted hours.

A McDonald's in Kentucky has been fined for hiring two unpaid 10-year-old children and at times making them work as late as 2 a.m., the Department of Labor said.

The pair of children was employed by Bauer Food LLC, a Louisville-based operator of 10 McDonald's restaurants, the department said in a Tuesday statement.

The two children would prepare and distribute food orders, clean the restaurant, work at the drive-thru window, and operate a register, the labor department said.

Investigators also found that one of the 10-year-olds was allowed to work a deep fryer, a "prohibited task for workers under 16 years old," per the statement.

McDonald's operator admits to union-busting campaign

Australian Associated Press
Thu, 4 May 2023

The former operator of a McDonald's franchise in South Australia has agreed to pay
$275,000 in fines and penalties to end court action over
a long-running anti-union campaign among employees.

The Federal Court action was brought by the Shop, Distributive and Allied Employees' Association (SDA) and was settled after the former operators of the Murray Bridge outlet admitted breaching workplace rights by pressuring staff to stop being SDA members or to not join the union.

The breaches and admissions do not relate to the current operators of the fast food outlet, east of Adelaide, nor to McDonald's Australia.

The SDA said workers at Murray Bridge were threatened with demotion and cuts to hours if they remained members and a list of union members was posted on a noticeboard.

The union said it believed the case was the first time a McDonald's store had admitted to a campaign to de-unionise its workforce.

I made the mistake of eating a Big Brekkie Burger (???) sometime last year (coming back from an all-nighter at hospital - I was starving), and I felt sick for about 24 hours.

Didn't throw up or crap my pants or anything, but felt 'not quite right' all day and into the next morning.

Are those battered chicken?
McChicken directly from the freezer, no need to thaw.

Ingredients & Substitutions
Chicken Breasts - use white meat to get more meat than fat and avoid it from shrinking when cooked.
Eggs - used as a binder and an added moisture for the chicken patties and also used in the batter mix.
Cornstarch - help seal the moisture of the formed patties when used as a coating and also a great binding agent for the ground chicken meat. Compared with flour, they can give extra crunch for fried foods. You can substitute this with potato starch or wheat flour.
Yellow Mustard - aside from adding some tangy flavor to the batter, it also helps add some yellow color to the mixture.
Mayonnaise - a creamy and flavorful base for the special sauce. You can use any brand of mayonnaise or you can also make your own homemade Classic Mayonnaise.
--
The meat is behind the batter of corn, mustard and mayo.

Choice Australia: Guess the animal
The meat in your "meat pie" doesn't have to be beef. Muscle meat from buffalo, camel, cattle, deer, goat, hare, pig, poultry or sheep can be used to manufacture meat pies, and the type of animal doesn't need to be specified on the label.

Maccas offer a camel burger with green algae, saltbush and smothered in road kill. Simply add to 10 litres water and feed to roses.

Incidently, four of the pies they tested are now made

Thanks for the link to Kentucky Fried Chicken.

I checked what's in a so-called chicken tender
—which is NOT breast meat as most people think.
They're made from the pectoralis minor muscles
of the animal. These strips of white meat are
located on either side of the breastbone.

Wheat Flour, Salt, Spices, Monosodium Glutamate, Sodium Bicarbonate,
Citric Acid, Garlic Powder, Partially Hydrogenated Soybean and
Cottonseed Oil, Calcium Silicate (as Anticaking Agent), Modified Corn
Starch, Gum Arabic, Natural(?) Flavour, Extractives of Turmeric, and
Extractives of Annatto.

Partially hydrogenated oils contain trans fat
that can raise cholesterol and result in health
complications. In 2015, the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) said that partially hydrogenated
oils are not safe, and removing them from food
could prevent thousands of heart attacks each year.

I had my first McDonalds meal in 2 months. I thought it would be nice to say hello to my daughter on the drive-thru. I get to receive my order at the second window only to find that the dispatcher drops the bag of my burger and fries on the floor. I was close to asking for them to remake the order. But, I figure that I could probably salvage the content of the bag when I got home. Then I could complain over the phone. Be THAT guy that complains about junk food.

It has been a week since my last drink. I am surprised that I have recovered so quickly, simply for being sober of alcohol in 7 days. But, I have little to no desire for sugary or fatty food. I will tell you how I do without alcohol in the second week.

It has been 3 years since I have gone more than 5 days without any alcohol.

Knock out Carbs and sugar.
Fatty meat is fine.
Eat beef, lots of it, but do not cook it in seed oil or vegetable oil. Use bacon fat.
Lamb is another good one.
Carnivore works for Loosing weight and building muscle strength. ;)

Too late. I worked 4.5 hours tonight. I did have a large dinner today. But, I was feeling run down and hungry -- which is something I normally don't experience, even after 4 hours of activity. After going to get some stuff from the groceries, I went over to KFC and bought a 3 piece feed of hot 'n' spicy.

Damn it, Bobby. I have to admit that the drop in sugar consumption did cause a craving for sugar and starchy food. Maybe I can make that meal my last fast food meal for 3 months.

Have some will power and do the carnivore plan for 2 weeks. Eat burger patties if you can't afford steak.
Still eat cheeses, eggs, bacon, all meat, can still have coffee, just try to limit carb and sugar intake.

You do not get hunger pains or "feel" hungry, your inflammation will drop dramatically, your aches and pains in your joints will start to subside, and best of all, your body fat content will fall.
You may still weigh the same after 2 weeks, but your bones and muscles become more dense.
Trust me, it works.

Carbs turn to sugar.
Top that with all the sugar you consume.
You can eat certain veggies but steer clear if starch and acid ie. Potata, tomato etc.

Actually, no. I did not do too bad. So far, it has been 10 days since my last heavy drinking session. My body was just craving some sugary fatty food. More to the point, the asparagus that I have been eating has been helping unclog the arteries. One night of a high cholesterol meal would not do too much damage. Especially after I am 10 days into a sobriety stint. Drinking of 1 litre of scotch does more damage to my body than a few days of fast food meals.

My eating plan of late has been to eat sandwiches for breakfast, with some fruit. I wash that down with a coffee. I might have a snack here or there during the day (and try to drink more water than usual). I make it through to the evening meal (which is around 5pm) where I have pork sausages and vegetables. The vegetables are boiled in with iodised salt and with garlic and onion flakes. I serve the vegetables up on a plate and sprinkle ginger and turmeric over top. Sometimes I have a late evening snack of boiled eggs, fruit (kiwi fruit and oranges), a bowl of oatmeal, and wash it down with a diluted orange juice mixed in with chia seeds.

The above paragraph shows my diet that is good enough to be considered a moderate diet plan. It is still fatty and sugary in nutrition. But, it is not nearly as fatty or sugary as those fast food places serve. Regular exercise and work has helped me slowly lose the weight.

By next week, I might up the health factor and start eating salad sandwiches. Avocados seem to be on special again. So, I might try and get those as a snack. And the exercise routine might go back to being 4 nights a week (alternating nights to recover).

Did Jamie Oliver Prove McDonald’s Burgers
Are Unfit for Human Consumption?

An outdated controversy about McDonald's use of beef treated with ammonium hydroxide resurfaced on social media.

David Emery

Published 22 January 2018

Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver proved that the meat in McDonald's hamburgers is "unfit for human consumption" due to the use of beef trimmings treated with bacteria-killing ammonium hydroxide.

Healthy food supporter Jamie Oliver took on the biggest fast food joint in the world, and he won.

He managed to get the multi national corporation to admit that their burger meat was sub-standard and have vowed to change it.

Oliver highlighted how McDonald’s used ammonium hydroxide to ‘wash’ their beef before it was made into hamburgers, in order to make it fit for human consumption, without this stage the food would not have been legal to sell by nationwide standards. Meat that has not been treated in this way is usually used for dog and cat food.

The ammonium hydroxide is used as an anti-microbial agent which basically acts as a catalyst to turn ‘inedible’ meat into burgers.

Oliver said:

“Basically, we’re taking a product that would be sold in the cheapest way for dogs, and after this process, is being given to human beings.”

Anyone had some Maccas lately?

Although I do have to admit to at least entering a
McDonald's often-times to use their toilet facilities
when I'm shopping distant from my home.

I also note that the restaurant part actually smells
worse than the toilets do—which doesn't say a lot
for the alleged "food" they sell. It smells better coming

McDonald’s UK has been hit with a massive AU$910,000 fine
after a mouse infestation was found in one of its kitchens.

The chain plead guilty to three charges of hygiene breaches
after the case was taken to court.

Environmental Health Officers visited the restaurant in
October 2021, after a customer complained they had
found droppings in their 24-hour drive-thru order. The
customer was half-way through eating their cheeseburger
when they noticed what they thought was a mouse dropping
on the inside of the wrapper.

Amongst the officer findings were the decomposing
remains of a mouse and numerous mouse droppings
throughout the premises, including on the floor of the
food preparation and main cooking section, in the
main cooking area next to a tray of cooking utensils
and in the hot-holding food preparation area on the floor.

Mouldy food and grease on a kitchen trolley...


A decomposing mouse and rotting food on kitchen floor...


      The poor hygiene conditions were found by officers
      despite paperwork claiming cleaning schedules
      had been completed. (Note the bolding.)

      How clean is the McDonald's you buy from Bobby? :D

One christmas in the Riverland here, couple years before Mum died, had to stay in a caravan park. Christmas Day with the family there, boxing day NOTHING open, was even thinking of driving to Blanchetown to buy food but, filling up with petrol I saw Hungry Jacks and Maccas were open. Bought two cheeseburgers and a green salad.

My god! The burgers were the size of a fifty cent piece, well, little bit bigger than that. Salad was like the stem bits of an iceberg lettuce.

I laughed, ate the crap because I was hungry, have not been back since.

McDonald's "Famous" French Fries (which are actually
Belgian, but the stupid American GIs thought because
most Belgians spoke French they mistook them for French
nationals... duh).

So...

Ingredients: Potatoes, vegetable oil (canola oil, corn
oil, soybean oil), hydrogenated soybean oil, natural
beef flavour* [wheat and milk derivatives], dextrose,
sodium acid pyrophosphate (maintain colour), salt.
*natural beef flavour contains hydrolysed wheat and
hydrolysed milk as starting ingredients.

—Hydrogenation is a process where manufacturers
add hydrogen to a liquid fat, such as vegetable oil, to
turn it into a solid fat at room temperature.

—Hydrolysed wheat is used in body lotions and shampoos.

—Sodium acid pyrophosphate should be avoided by
persons with kidney disease.

Fair enough. But Jefferson never called them "fries";
he said "in the French style". Different meaning altogether.

But... Jefferson wrote: "Cut new potatoes in thin slices,
put them in boiling fat, and a little salt; fry both sides of
a light golden brown colour; drain". This account referred
to thin, shallow-fried slices of potato, rather than the thicker
'baton' style we're used to today, which are deep fried.

‘Dangerous’ chemicals found in 80% of
McDonald’s, Burger King, Pizza Hut and Domino’s meals

Terri-Ann Williams

Published: 11:24, 29 Oct 2021Updated: 16:16, 29 Oct 2021

CHEMICALS that can cause reproductive issues and learning problems in children have been found in the foods at some of your favourite chains, a study has revealed.

Samples taken from McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Domino's and Chipotle meals were found to include industrial chemicals.

A new study, based on samples from restaurants in San Antonio, US, found small amounts of phthalates.

These chemicals are used to make plastics soft and were found in 80 per cent of the samples collected.

The chemical is linked to a range of health problems including issues in the endocrine system which is a series of glands that produces and secretes hormones in the body, a previous study found.

Phthalates are also linked to fertility and reproductive issues, with one 2020 study having found that the chemical may 'induce alterations in puberty, the development of testicular dysgenesis syndrome, cancer, and fertility disorders in both males and females'.

Another study, published earlier this year also called for 'critical' policy reforms on the chemicals after it found that it raises the risk of attention, behavioural and learning disorders in kids.

Around 50g of each food item was used for testing.

In total 80 per cent of foods tested included a phthalate called DnBP which has been linked to an increased risk of asthma - this is while 70 per cent of foods included DEHP, which has links to reproductive issues.

In the US the Food and Drug Administration has no legal threshold in the amount of phthalate in foods.

In the UK restrictions on phthalates came into force on July 22 2019 in electrical equipment with some medical devices being exempt until July 2021.

Post by Jovial Monk on Jan 21^st, 2024 at 3:56pm

And I believe what I have been told.

I remember your post where you called Larry “POISON” and whinged about all the phone calls and emails you have to answer every day. Of course, you were weak enough to let the exploitative relationship continue. That has to have boosted the drinking, eh?

OTOH I used to drink a fair bit, good wine and beer but too much. That was when the pain from the arthritic hip was so strong, so bad and alcohol does kill pain.

Arthritis in a load bearing joint like a hip really sucks. On a good day, no actual pain, there is still a niggle coming from that hip: there is no waking moment when you do not know that you have arthritis. That is so immensely tiring, only people that have been through it understand.

Now, if you were a christian you might have realised some of that, but you are not a christian. You are a weak and stupid plonker, no charity in your heart, just a drive to find someone weak you could bully. Unfortunately for you you chose me. Bad choice.

You are still lying about the amount but we have moved a bit closer to the truth.

Do you open a bottle on Friday and finish it by Sunday night? That sounds reasonable but I think you drink more than that!

I do not drink cask wine/ EVERYTHING I have written about wine and beer shows I do not drink cask wine.

How long does it take you to finish a cask, say 5L wine? A week is my guess.

You do not drink a bottle a year.

A bottle a weekend would be more like it. 2–3 bottles a week even more likely.

Being in an exploitative relationship would no doubt boost the drinking.

McDonald's Secret Ingredients You Never Knew About.

The ingredient list of McDonald's foods is proof that not all calories will have the same metabolic effects in humans…

The seed oils, synthetic additives, and preservatives in these foods impact our hormones and metabolic functions negatively, making it harder for our bodies to produce energy and function properly…

This leads to constant hunger, overeating, low energy, poor hormonal health and ultimately weight gain…

Humans aren’t meant to consume these processed foods…

They're linked to cancer, heart disease, diabetes - and our shocking obesity crisis.

But what exactly are they and how can you avoid them?
Britain's top experts provide the definitive guide to cutting ultra-processed food from your diet

By Dr Michael Mosley for the Daily Mail

Published: 13:31 AEDT, 17 March 2024

It is a scary thought that in 1980, when I went to medical school, only one in every 14 British adults was obese. Now it is close to one in four.

We didn't see a lot of overweight patients when I was a medical student. These days, the NHS spends millions every year reinforcing beds, building bigger scanners and even designing larger mortuary fridges.

And this is only a fraction of the many billions spent treating and managing diseases caused by obesity, such as type 2 diabetes, arthritis and some types of cancer. So why, over the past 40 years, have we Brits become so fat?

I firmly believe the main culprit is our increasing reliance on unhealthy takeaways and ultra-processed junk food, which now makes up more than half of most people's daily calories. Ultra-processed foods are the sort of brightly packaged, aggressively marketed food and drinks that fill our supermarket shelves.

If you look at the ingredients, they will typically be high in salt, fat and sugar, along with a list of mysterious ingredients you have almost certainly never heard of.

I bought a meal from McDonalds on my way home from work the other night. They started this competition where you get instant wins peeling the labels off the fries packets. I got myself an instant win fries. A few days later, having to work an 8 hour shift, I got my break and decided to go to McDonalds again and redeem the fries. I talk to the manager about the 'coupon'. She tells me to redeem the fries online. Therefore, I have to find my MyMaccas app or create a new one if I want to get the fries.

It is a great way to stop me from buying junk food. Refuse to honour a coupon, based on a technicality.

every day, my missus has a fattie that has to be put in an amnbulance and transported 50 km to the bigger hospital so they can be xrayed becasue they cant fit in their smaller machine and then brought back in an ambulance (at enormous expense)

and 2 of her colleagues are on workcoiver after injuring shoulders trying to help massive fatties out of bed and the fattie has a fall.

personal responsibility bobby

Ultra-processed food (UPF) is directly linked to 32 harmful effects to health, including a higher risk of heart disease, cancer, type 2 diabetes, adverse mental health and early death, according to the world’s largest review of its kind.

The findings from the first comprehensive umbrella review of evidence come amid rapidly rising global consumption of UPF such as cereals, protein bars, fizzy drinks, ready meals and fast food.

In the UK and US, more than half the average diet now consists of ultra-processed food. For some, especially people who are younger, poorer or from disadvantaged areas, a diet comprising as much as 80% UPF is typical.

The findings published in the BMJ suggest diets high in UPF may be harmful to many elements of health. The results of the review involving almost 10 million people underscored a need for measures to target and reduce exposure to UPF, the researchers said.

The amount of fat, carbs, and other sugars found in a Big Mac meal would make any other non-fast food meal seem healthy by comparison. Yes, you can find sugars in the apples you eat. But, I bet those apples contain a lot more vitamin c and other fibres that you don't get out of any item on the McDonalds menu.

Chips are what they are.
Cane sugar juice has no vitamin C and makes the burger sloppy.
There is 4.6 mg Vitamin C in your apple.
9.6mg Vit C in lettuce, and in 1/6 lettuce of 50g, 1.6mg Vit C.
Daily Double burger has shredded lettuce, two juicy slices of tomato. Medium tomato has 20mg so two slices is 10mg Vit C.
4.6 apple : 11.6 burger.

Yes - I often get the chips as a snack if I'm hungry on me way home from town or something. Same with HJs - like their chips - but all chips need to be hot or they are oily and horrible... I do my shoestrings in an air fryer at home - slightly overdone and crunchy, thanks..... grit them small bones between my teeth.....

I rarely eat the burgers and always with trepidation..... mavbe I should get a hound and try the dog test ... my Labrador once turned his nose up at a pub pie I bought him for lunch.... hmmmmmm ...

I said that I would not buy McDonalds again. But, I went through the drive-thru one more time, the other night. Why does it take 15 minutes to get a meal at the drive-thru? Angus burger, fries and drink. But the truck in front of me takes forever to order (or be able to order). Then I have to wait 5 minutes for my turn at the speaker box. Order taker finally speaks "I just need a minute". He was not joking, either. A minute later he takes my order, and we get through in about 20 seconds. I go to pay and there is some kind of shift change where some older girl is taking the payment from me. I move ahead only to stop behind the truck that is waiting at the second window. I wind up my driver-side window to save on airconditioning, and get into park and handbrake on. 5... f'n.... minutes.... later.... Truck in front of me finally get their food order. They then restart their truck and wait another (reasonable) minute for their drinks. Then they go. I go to the second window, roll down the window, and wait. It is another 2 minutes before they come to the window with my order. The same girl (or her identical twin sister) serves me the food. Takes another minute with my drink. I say "thank you" and leave (for good).

I am 45 years old. I have been eating McDonalds since I was 13 years old. I would go there after school or after university for a quick feed. I would even get the false accusations by teachers that we snuck out of school to get our lunches there. But there is no way that service there is that bad that you cannot have cars waiting more than 2 minutes a turn in the drive-thru. I am getting too old to be eating there. McDonalds has not beaten KFC's 70-minute wait time to be served. But, I won't be witness to any more delays.

you are giving up junk food because they cant get their addictive blend of fat sugar and salt into your mouth quickly enough :D :D :D

thats like saying a druggie is going to rehab to deal with the trauma of his dealer not being at his beck and call .

thats f'ed up

you give up maccas because you dont want to spend the last 20 years of your life with a stroke in a wheelchair with diabetes, going to hospital to have your toes chopped off, going blind and having dialysis.

all very expensive to the taxpayer and very miserable for you.

now, off to the grocer, buy that cucumber and carrot and some smoked herring paste and sit in maccas and eat it up, thinking about how you are on the path of the superior man

let that feeling of awesomeness penetrate your body as you look on at the chodes(chowing down on the sugar and fat) running (waddling) like lemmings over the cliff

I have been to Maccas 6 times in the last 3 weeks. I usually don't go to Maccas any more than once a month. But that is normally the result of me preferring to go to Red Rooster and buying a half combo with peas and gravy, before I get into my binge drinking.

Being in the fast food and then restaurant industry for the last 27 years of my life, quality of service is important to a customer. You could have ordered a pizza and had it made and served inside the time it took waiting in the drive-thru area of McDonalds.

From 13 years to 18 years of age, the meal is a kind of thing for that age range. Adulthood, the fast food becomes an emergency feed. By the time I was 36, I had shunned all the fast food outlets in my attempt to lose weight. I don't think I had a meal at McDonalds for about 2 years. But my teenage daughter started working there and I felt it necessary to sneak some visits to her at the drive thru. With her graduating university, there is no further motivation to go there.

Disgusting image of dirty mop being dried near fries at
Booval store goes viral

May 21, 2024 4:45PM

An Australian McDonald’s worker’s disgusting act has gone viral after
being caught on camera drying a mop head underneath a French fry warmer.

A staff member from the fast-food chain’s Booval outlet, 30km southwest of Brisbane,
was filmed holding a detachable microfibre mop head underneath a heat lamp directly
above some fries that were ready to be served to a customer.

Daily Mail Australia reports that management spoke to the staff member;
however, further action has not been taken.

maccas is probably healthier and safer than most cafe & restaurant food bc its more accountable and has standardised hygine standards. every big mac is the same whether you have it marrakesh or tokyo, so you know exactly what you're eating, the caloric content and the macronutritional profile. by contrast the typical takeaway burger with the lot is a total question mark, no clue how much oil, salt etc they use on each one, even between burgers in the same joint let alone on burgers between different joints.

maccas tried to introduce a salad range and the derpers would not buy it.

I watched the documentary "Super Size Me" just the other week. Near the end of the documentary, Spurlock said that McDonalds changed their menu to introduce salads. However, Spurlock noted that the salads were almost as fattening as the burgers and fries.

The last time I broke my diet and bought Maccas, I thought it was the best fast food meal I have had in a long time. Duh, of course it was. However, I felt run down an hour later. Insulin spike leading me to sleep off the meal. It was only Wednesday just gone that I broke my abstention from fast food by eating a whole pizza, and washing that down with a 600mL Pepsi. Same again with the insulin spike leading to sleepy time.

You can say that there is nutrition in McDonalds all you like. People can say that there is nutrition in a bucket of fried chicken, too. But, the reality is that these meals are pushing malnutrition onto our bodies. Healthy meals consisting of low-fat, low-sugar content helps the body get the optimum energy levels without going straight to our fat cells.

I am one of the last people on this forum to be giving nutritional advice. However, I have learned enough over the years to know that calories derived from healthy meals and calories derived from fast food meals are different. You could overeat on salad and low-fat meats to consume the same amount of calories as you would a Big Mac meal. But, your body's ability to digest a salad meal would be a lot easier than what you would having a Big Mac meal. They may be the same amount of calories. But, the nutrition on a Big Mac meal just processes in our digestion differently because of the poor quality of food. Sure, you can satiate your hunger with fast food. However, because the fats and carbs give short term energy, you tend to be hungry again sooner than what you would if you had a salad.

That article you posted:

Two-thirds of his total intake came from junk food. He also took a multivitamin pill and drank a protein shake daily. And he ate vegetables, typically a can of green beans or three to four celery stalks.

He countered the bad diet with a multivitamin pill and drank a protein shake daily. And he ate vegetables. Oh, come on! My own previous diet consisted of regular junk food each week and modestly healthy meals at home. I was slowly losing weight. But, I was losing muscle mass. When I cut out my alcohol intake, and stopped going to fast food restaurants, my weight stayed roughly the same as it was. But, I look much stronger. Muscle weighs more than fat. I look skinnier than I was. But I am also stronger.

Spurlock died 20 years after he released that documentary. His cancer would have been unrelated to his consumption of McDonalds food 21 years ago. Assuming that is your implication Spurlock's cancer was caused by 30 days of eating Maccas.

Well, yes, the caloric restriction would have meant that the small amount of nutrition he got from the junk food would have meant that he would have lost weight feeling hungry not long after eating. He would have also had bigger bowel movements than usual. Normally, if you eat a very healthy diet, your body won't need to do a bowel movement any more than once a day. That is because your body uses the healthy diet very effectively.

the point is weight loss is a function of energy in energy out, it really is just that simple but people try to turn it into something vastly more complicated than it really is. you really can lose weight eating dominos and maccas, it might not be optimal for your health (maybe) but you can do it about as easily as you can lose weight doing any other diet, which is to say not at all because weight loss is just hard. it causes suffering/pain to be hungry no matter what you are eating.

Bird Flu Outbreak Forces McDonald's Australia To Cut Breakfast Time

Sunday, Jul 07, 2024 - 11:00 AM

McDonald’s Australia has cut breakfast time in Australia by 90 minutes
due to an egg shortage amid an outbreak of bird flu.

The decision follows after the highly pathogenic H7 influenza infected eight farms in Victoria, two properties in New South Wales, and one in the Australian Capital Territory.

More than one million birds in the two states combined have been euthanised as part of the government’s response to bird flu, also known as avian influenza.

In a post on social media, McDonald’s explained breakfast would end at 10.30 a.m. instead of midday, due to egg supply issues.

“Like many retailers we are carefully managing supply of eggs due to the current industry challenges,” McDonald’s Australia posted to Instagram.

“To keep bringing you your breakie favourites with fresh Aussie eggs, we'll be temporarily serving breakfast until 10.30 a.m. across Australia (usually available until midday).”

McDonald’s said it is working hard with Aussie farmers and suppliers to return to normal “as soon as possible.”

I got chewed out about calorie in/calorie out arguments some years ago by "Prime Minister of Canyons" over on the Health forum. Having done some moderate research on the topic of weight loss, I concluded that PM for Canyons was right. A calorie is not the same calorie, if the calorie is from a different source. Otherwise, our bodies would be able to process the consumption of food the same.

Some foods, you can digest quickly. Some foods take a while. Some foods are sweet enough that the body pumps out a lot of insulin. Why would it do that if "a calorie is a calorie" no matter the source?

Quote:

Apples contain water and fibre. "One serving, or one medium apple, provides about 95 calories, 0 gram fat, 1 gram protein, 25 grams carbohydrate, 19 grams sugar (naturally occurring), and 3 grams fiber". Source

French fries
Calories 196
Fat 13.1g
Sodium 141mg
Carbohydrates 18.5mg
Fiber 1.6g

A minor difference about consuming apples and french fries is the effort it takes in eating an apple. It's harder to chew apples than it is with french fries.

I rolled my eyes so hard at that comment, my eyes will need to rest up from the injury sustained. I happen to have been one of those people that underwent a weightloss journey over a period of 7 months. I was 130kg by late 2014. By the middle of 2015, I had lost 35kg. 25kg were lost in the first 4 months of my diet. The other 10kg were lost in the final 3 months. All I did was to quit alcohol, quit junk food, and increase my exercise. I also increased my salad intake.

I am actually surprised that you are sticking to your story about all calories being the same. The anecdote regarding Ryan Bayley was in regards to his reputation of having eaten junk food quite often, despite Bayley being an elite athlete. If it did not matter that Bayley was eating junk food during his training program, would you wonder why the Australian Institute of Sport's nutritionists put Bayley on a specific diet? Bayley might not have won gold at Athens, had he been eating fast food in the week before the Athens Olympics.

holy poo why do you keep bringing up that anecdote its meaningless, we're talking about calories as they affect WEIGHT LOSS, not necessarily HEALTH (that doesnt relate to weight level) or BODILY COMPOSITION, there is a difference between those things

thats what that nutrition professor was trying to prove when he got 99% of his calories from f_cking sugar foods and lost weight doing it

Quote:

Biochemically, a calorie is exactly a calorie. But in the actual practice of calorie-counting it is nearly impossible to get a totally precise estimate of calories-in, or of calories-out for that matter. Examples: the “4 cal/g” estimate for proteins is an average; specific proteins will deviate from this slightly dur to different ratios of amino acids. “Indigestible” fiber is actually slightly digestible. Food serving size calorie estimates printed on packaged food are legally allowed a small range of error. Examples of sources of error on the calories out side: increased dietary protein boosts TDEE by about 50-150 kcal/d due to the high cost of digestion for protein. Sleep deprivation causes a minir drop in BMR. The heart rate calculations used by Fitbit can only estimate metabolic rate, based on population averages that will not be true for everybody. Etc.

But the thing is, these sources of error tend to average out. You might overestimate the calories in one meal and underestimate it in the next, and so on. In the end CICO formulas, tracked over time by food-weighing and HR-based TDEE formulas, usually predict actual weight loss to within 10% accuracy. And that’s plenty good enough. Even if you’re unlucky and the errors all happen to stack in the same direction, say you end up with only 80% accuracy - well, then you “only” lose 8 pounds instead of 10. Hey, you still lost 8 pounds. Even the worst case scenario of CICO error just means it’ll take you a little longer to reach you goal.

In top of that are the effects of hunger and satiety. Newer studies are showing that the famed “insulin spike” actually has zero impact on fat storage (in fact, paradoxically, it turns out carbs cause slightly more fat oxidation, rather than less as had been predicted), but what it does affect is hunger.

no you literally cannot measure exactly what your real metabolizable energy intake is from food even from the calorie label bc there are different bodily processes and the exact biochemical composition of foods, but this is true for everything you f_cking do, you are never going to get your exact targetted weight loss ever, that doesn't mean that CICO doesnt work

your own anecdote just suggests you basically just massively cut your caloric intake relative to your energy expenditure, and WOW, you lost weight! amazing! you know what; ive lost weight eating bagels with cream cheese, frozen pizzas, beers and sultana bran and barely exercised at all, simply bc i was eating less than what i was before i was a heavier weight.t he ultimate master switch was the fact that we were both consuming less energy relative to how much we were using. that's it. were you even tracking calories before and after?

they are killing people with their poisonous food.
Salt, fat, sugar in huge quantities.

Either sell healthy food or close down.

Maccas, KFC, Hungry Jacks, Pizza joints - all rubbish food -
filling our hospitals with patients with diabetes, strokes, heart attacks
and morbid obesity conditions.
I've seen morbidly obese people on mobility scooters in supermarkets and shopping centers -
they're so fat they can't even walk.
They can't work and tax payers have to pay for their fat lifestyles with NDIS or the DSP etc.

JC Denton, I happen to be diabetic. Years of regular alcohol consumption (and junk food) had led me to being diabetic. My diabetes also exacerbated my weight gain. My body could not effectively process the food I consumed, and I either kept an overweight/obese body type. Or I actually gained weight. It took my efforts of consuming a healthy diet of low sugar, low carbs, low fat to make the weight loss take effect. Here are some of the effects sugar has on the body.

Quote:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yNNyuxaVN0

"Carbs in, carbs out" is theoretically sound. But, a carb is not the same carb among different foods. I challenge you to eat a Big Mac. On another day, I want you to eat the equivalent calorie count of the Big Mac with a salad meal. You can wash both meals down with a bottle of water. An hour after you consume both meals, I want you to take note of how you feel physically and mentally.

Quote:

I want to show you something:

In the last month, I have lost 3 kilograms. However, my strength has increased where I can carry a 36kg backpack reasonably easy -- I was jogging part of my walk last night with that backpack on. A month ago, I was struggling to walk around with the backpack. My muscle gain has been modest. But my fat cells are shrinking. I look better, too.

Can I put it to you that your weight loss "eating bagels with cream cheese, frozen pizzas, beers and sultana bran and barely exercised at all" is due to your muscles atrophying? The above picture of fat vs muscle shows that 5lbs of fat takes up more space than 5lbs of muscle. So, I could look muscular at 102kg. But, I could look severely obese at 102kg. The different is the body fat percentage and how much muscles I have on my body.

One example, Greg Kovacs: the heaviest body builder at 190kg

You could imagine a non-athlete obese person standing 193cm tall and weighing 190kg would look very obese. But, Kovacs being a bodybuilder managed to put on a lot of muscle and had a reasonably low body fat percentage. Perhaps I could suggest Australian glamour/fitness model, Ashleigh McAuliffe as an example for women. Ash was very skinny (underweight) in her late teens. By the time she was in her mid-20s, she gained about 10kg of muscle. She looked a lot healthier.

I seriously suggest you change your thought process, JC. Maybe you are still young and have a chance. But if you are my age (45) or older, you must change your mind and do away with fast food to be nothing more than a once a fortnight treat.

I thought I was very clear what I meant. You are saying a calorie is a calorie, regardless of source of nutrition. I am saying that a calorie is not a calore, if the source of nutrition is varying.

I have also said that "calorie in/calorie out" is theoretically sound. Actually, I mistakenly wrote "carbs in/carbs out". But, regardless of that minor error, the CICO theory is flawed due to the fact that the calories you consume in an apple is different to the calories you consume in a serving of french fries.

You cannot just see calorie intake for the body to be similar to putting money in a bank and then using the funds slowly during the day, and maybe spending a lot during physical exertions. My analogy for that would be if calorie intake to the body was like putting money in the bank and letting it be stored for a little while.

If I can make the distinction. If you put money in your bank and agree to the terms of fees being applied to use the bank's facilities. You also have a high interest when you want to take out a loan, because the bank knows that you are laundering some money and find you an unreliable customer. But your legitimate sources of income keep you credible... for now. Eventually, the tax man is going to write a please explain to you, and you will have a stroke. All you can do to recover is declare bankruptcy and recover with legitimate income sources to pay off that 'debt'.

For my analogy, my bank sees that I am a legitimate customer with legitimate income sources. I have a reasonably good credit rating, even after having history of POOR financial management. I mean, it took me years to get that good credit rating, though. As long as I continue to do the right thing, the bank will loan me what I need to use, and I will have to repay with low interest rates applied.

Is that abstract enough for you?

I did show you a photo of Greg Kovacs. He was a roided up body builder. But, I was trying to demonstrate, not just to you but, to people that someone weighing something like 190kg is not just people who are obese. Kovacs was an extreme version of heavy muscular. Most 190kg people I have seen in photos probably have been unable to touch their toes, they are so fat.

You are calling me a "fat guy". You call yourself a "thin guy". I bet the reality is that I have a higher body percentage of fat, compared to you. However, I bet I have more muscle on my body compared to you. I would probably be described as "muscular fat". Whereas, from what you are telling me, you are probably "skinny fat". My 102kg frame could probably bench press 70kg at most. Whereas, you could probably bench press 50kg. Even when I was 23 or 24 years old, I weighed 84kg and could bench press 70kg. I looked physically fit then. I am trying to get back to those days of physical fitness as soon as I can before my ageing body starts to factor into how fit I can get.

Speaking of thin, I suppose your sex life is not great? Consuming sugary foods is probably the worst thing for your willy. If you want to get strong erections, you keep away from sugar. The blood in your body will circulate better. You will have better stamina, too. Surely, you know the link between alcohol and erectile dysfunction. Ever since going sober, it is so easy for a near-middle-aged person like me to get hard erections. Could I suggest you drink green or black tea in the mornings. Drink diluted apple cider vinegar before bed. Also, when you are laying in bed, hold your breath for a period of 30 seconds. Recover and then repeat 2 or 3 more times. Not only will you drift off to sleep easier, by morning, you will probably be more 'equipped'.

I don't care if that last paragraph made you feel uncomfortable. But, you would know that I have been truthful here. Quietly alter your diet. In two weeks, you will see the difference.

One example, Greg Kovacs: the heaviest body builder at 190kg

Yes, I did notice that fact about Kovacs being dead at age 44. High testosterone levels would have meant that Kovac's estrogen levels would have gone up to compensate and bring down the testosterone to manageable levels. I don't know the theory behind it, but having high testosterone would have put a strain on Kovac's heart and other organs to a point that Kovac's heart just stopped working.

I was using Kovac as an example of someone who could be heavy but look muscular.

I recall when I was daring enough to sleep with a bodybuilder's girlfriend. Okay, it was back in the days when I was younger, better looking and fitter. The girlfriend decided to cheat on her fiance, and hooked up with me. Let us just say that this girl either was inexperienced with sex -- which seems unusual for a fitness model. Or her bodybuilder boyfriend had penile atrophy. Whatever the case, this 20-something-year-old lady bent me a few times that night during her orgasms. Madonna's song "Like a virgin" generally triggers memories of that night.

I would suggest that if Kovacs did not use steroids, but was just as fanatical about his body building, he would definitely look less muscular. However, Kovacs would still be heavy muscular. Kovacs might have been a 150kg muscular man, instead of a 190kg roided muscular man.

You did miss the point why I used him as an example.

One dead in multistate E. coli outbreak tied to McDonald’s Quarter Pounders, CDC says

https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/e-coli-mcdonalds-quarter-pounder-outbreak-cdc-rcna176665

Updated 6:11 PM EDT, Tue October 22, 2024

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a food safety alert Tuesday regarding an E. coli outbreak that it says is linked with McDonald’s Quarter Pounders.

At least 49 illnesses have been reported across 10 states, including one death of an older person.
Ten people have been hospitalized,
including a child who had hemolytic uremic syndrome, a serious complication that can develop from an E. coli infection. Most of the illnesses are in Colorado and Nebraska.

Most of the people who became ill reported eating McDonald’s Quarter Pounder sandwiches, the CDC says.

McDonald’s said in a statement that the initial investigation findings linked the onions to “a single supplier that serves three distribution centers.”

“We are working in close partnership with our suppliers to replenish supply for the Quarter Pounder in the coming weeks (timing will vary by local market),” it said. “In the meantime, all other menu items, including other beef products (including the Cheeseburger, Hamburger, Big Mac, McDouble and the Double Cheeseburger) are unaffected and available.”

According to the FDA, McDonald’s has removed the slivered onions and quarter-pound patties from stores in Colorado, Kansas, Utah, Wyoming and portions of Idaho, Iowa, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico and Oklahoma. In other states, Quarter Pounder burgers may not be available.

However, the CDC also notes that the outbreak may go beyond those states.

People with E. coli infections may have symptoms including severe stomach cramps, diarrhea, fever and vomiting. Symptoms of infection usually begin three or four days after swallowing the bacteria. Although most people who become ill recover without treatment within a week, others can develop serious kidney problems and require hospitalization.

Anyone who becomes ill after eating a McDonald’s Quarter Pounder should get medical attention and tell the provider what they ate, the CDC says.

McDonald’s said in its statement that “serving customers safely in every single restaurant, each and every day, is our top priority” and that it will continue working with the CDC on the investigation.

McDonald’s stock price dropped precipitously in after-hours trading as news of the outbreak broke.

maccas is pretty safe in the short term

1 dead from e coli

thats not a high body count

the high body count is from the public health catastrophe

heart attack stroke cancer diabetes and kidney failure are amongst our biggest killers

and the mcdonalds diet is a major contibutor to all of them

go get a lettuce amd a carrot and a mandarin and sit down in a maccas and set a good example

my wifes hospital had a lady in with scurvy last week

SCURVY!!

she NEVER ate fruit

a disease that killed hundreds of sailors and she gets it when fruit and veges are available in unlimited ammounts

but, if you drink coca cola and donuts , then fruit tastes like crap.

you have wrecked your taste receptors for sweet

fruit doesnt even taste sweet

give up the sugary crap and fruit will taste good again

but go wreck your mouth at maccas and you wont want it

and you too can get scurvy and nearly die

There are several outbreaks of deaths from E Coli in food every year in the USA.

The most recent fast food E coli incident was Taco Bell.

Then there's Boar's head which was a persistent outbreak.

One has to wonder whether perpetrators in the US are contaminating food.

Let me "five-eighth" this thing.

Trump went to a McDonalds as a promotional stunt for his presidential campaign. As a presidential nominee, he got to work at the drive-thru. Would you think that would be a bad idea to do that, being that any of the customers could have just shot the man, and then drove off? Not if you are vetting the customers who drive up to the window.

Secret service agents would have taken note of who was driving up to the window. Number plates. Facial recognition scans. Fingerprint scanning the driver and passengers of those potential Republican voters whom are lining up to get served by the president. Sound ironic, right? And with those precautions comes a team of counter terrorists who stand about 800 metres in any part around that McDonalds restaurant.

Imagine in the next week, people will flock to see where the "next president of the United States worked". Imagine how hygienically clean that restaurant will be. Imagine that the store would be overwhelmed with customers for a month afterwards.

I walked into the Red Rooster restaurant, the evening after the Nth Qld Cowboys played a game in Rockhampton. There was an NRL player ordering a large order for him and his team mates. I week later, the store was very busy for a George Street address. I have never seen such an immaculately clean store, despite the high revenue sales.

The effect of having celebrities visit your store/franchise is powerful in bringing about positive changes.

For me, if I eat once a month at any fast food restaurant, it is good for my mental health. Once a week is too much.
