This Is What’s Really in a McDonald’s Hamburger
Glorious McDonald’s! Great food at very affordable prices -or so we all wish. There is no doubting that McDonald’s has done a great job of making edible substances at an affordable price. Not too long ago I was in Pittsburgh and saw that McDonald’s offers a family meal where you can get something like 4 sandwiches, fries, nuggets and beverages for $9.99. How can you beat that price? It’s no wonder many people who are tight on cash choose that route vs. going to the grocery store and getting two heads of organic broccoli for the same price.
Of course I’m being sarcastic about approving of McDonald’s foods. After all time and time again their food has been shown to be of low quality. Plus isn’t it kinda common sense that this stuff shouldn’t be eaten often, if at all?
Have a look at what is in a McDonald’s hamburger and see if you would be interested in consuming one of these again. You can also see what’s in a McRib, why you shouldn’t eat their french fries, and check out the strange fibers found in their nuggets.
According to McDonald’s own website, this is the list of ingredients for their popular McDouble, the sandwich that you see in the above video.
Regular Bun:
Ingredients: Enriched Flour (Bleached Wheat Flour, Malted Barley Flour, Niacin, Reduced Iron, Thiamin Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Water, High Fructose Corn Syrup and/or Sugar, Yeast, Soybean Oil and/or Canola Oil, Contains 2% or Less: Salt, Wheat Gluten, Calcium Sulfate, Calcium Carbonate, Ammonium Sulfate, Ammonium Chloride, Dough Conditioners (May Contain One or More of: Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, DATEM, Ascorbic Acid, Azodicarbonamide, Mono and Diglycerides, Ethoxylated Monoglycerides, Monocalcium Phosphate, Enzymes, Guar Gum, Calcium Peroxide), Sorbic Acid (Preservative), Calcium Propionate and/or Sodium Propionate (Preservatives), Soy Lecithin.
This is a list of side effects caused by the ingredients of just the bun alone:
– Ammonium sulfate is a chemical byproduct of steel-making and synthetic fiber production. It was the most common source of lawn fertilizer nitrogen until price increases starting in 2004 reduced its availability.- Bleached White Flour: It has been shown that alloxan is a byproduct of the flour bleaching process, the process they use to make flour look so “clean” and — well, white. No, they are technically not adding alloxan to the flour — although you will read this bit of misinformation on the Internet. But, they are doing chemical treatments to the grain that result in the formation of alloxan in the flour. Alloxan, or C4 H2O4N2, is a product of the decomposition of uric acid. It is a poison that is used to produce diabetes in healthy experimental animals (primarily rats and mice), so that researchers can then study diabetes “treatments” in the lab. Alloxan causes diabetes because it spins up enormous amounts of free radicals in pancreatic beta cells, thus destroying them. High Fructose Corn Syrup contains contaminants including mercury that are not regulated or measured by the FDA.PASTEURIZED PROCESSED AMERICAN CHEESE

So what your saying is, it’s just a freaking burger. SMDH Some peoples children…
LOL! I never had the guts (or thought) to try that since every time I go to a fast food I’m hungry so I never thought of squeezing them but that’s a REAL EYE OPENER.
I might try it out if I ever do to confirm the video. I do know when you take frozen chicken out and let it thaw you would be amazed at the crap that comes out when you squeeze it. Laden with so much water(?) or something.
So what is really in everything we eat nowadays?
That’s about how much grease I figured would be in one of those. No surprise. They are still tasty though. I will not be deterred.
You’re right…..its hell staying away from it. I haven’t eaten there for about a month and it gets tougher every day
Wait a minute ! What about all of the PEOPLE that they grind up and fry up to make their “Scamburgers” ?!!!
Australian store’s are way better We use a Hi-maize Bun. Mc Chucker’s is ALL CRAP tho really.
