Strangely enough, I was tested once and although they found my DNA it seems I went extinct several billion years ago!

There you go again, jumping on site with an insult, no thought to the fact I mentioned billions of years!
I was actually hinting at a one celled creature, I felt quite proud of my heritage until you posted so cold heartedly.

Yes but now they've tested the boxes when are they going to test the burgers?

The cardboard is the Burgers.

I should imagine it's a close call which tastes best- the boxes or the burgers.

Gordon Booth 03-03-2013 18:01

Re: Horse Meat in Tesco and Iceland
 
To be fair I just looked on their website and they say their burgers are 100% British or Irish beef with no binders, fillers,onions etc. And the 'chain' is only 5 long from farm to you.

So joking aside, what do they taste like? Must admit I haven't had one for years.

mcdonalds brugers are so wafer thin that by teh time you have bit through the bun,cheese and dressing your unlikely to notice the beef

however if you speak to anyone whos eaten at a mcdonalds in the USA its a completely different story and you get plenty of burger for your money.The yanks quite happily give minute burgers to the uk and europe because we are willing to pay good money for nothing in our bellys
