Quote:This looks suspsiciously like an urban legend, and a very low-circulation one at that, because I can find no other instance of anyone else claiming anything of the sort on the Web. Snopes.com doesn't have anything about it, either, but it does have this article, which points out that McDonald's cannot get enough lean beef to meet customer demand from purely US sources any more. It also points out that McDonald's is buying its non-US beef from Australia and New Zealand, which have more stringent regulations regarding beef, and whose cattle are grass-fed and thus do not need the megadoses of antibiotics that grain-fed American cattle do.
Did you know that until recently, when they advertised "We use 100% American Beef" they were lying? They incorporated a company as a subdivision of McDonalds Inc. which was called "100% American Beef" and used whatever cheap meats came to hand.
