Macca's burgers. 100% aussie beef.
They just don't tell you which part of the cow.

Does it matter what part of the cow? as long as it tastes ok. Always find it interesting people are happy to eat some bits of animal and not other bits - its the same beast - some bits are just more commonly eaten than others - most taste ok if you can get past thinking about what bit you are eating

Personally it doesn't worry me as I don't eat fast food or commercially made mince/patties etc.

However a visit to one of these factories, especially a smallgoods factory, would put a fair few people off eating it.

Again why? does if have poison or something? If its just body part, it will still taste the same after you see whats in it

Nah, no poison, obviously.

Just huge bags of eyelids, udders, vulva's, lungs, blood etc, etc being mixed with internal fat and then minced is a touch off-putting for some people.

I see you have seen my ex wife’s cooking videos on youtube

I can walk you through the Beef City feedlot and abattoir in Toowoomba and show which 'bits' go to Macca's if you like?

Can't attest to this at all. I know Tasmanian JBS abattoirs that produced meat for McDonalds. I can't remember the exact specifications, but it was around 80CL (80% lean red meat, 20% fat)
 
Chemical lean

Yeah, but that doesn't specify where it comes from on the beast.
My post above about udders etc was aimed at smallgoods.
For Macca's it is more the very, very secondary off-cuts on the cutting floor.
Just like all commercial mince.

It aint that luscious aussie steak minced up like they try and portray in advertising.

Oh yeah, I try to be blissfully ignorant on factory smallgoods. Ask any old Italian bloke, he'll give you an earful

I'm very, very fortunate to have Italian descent neighbours.
When they killa tha pig I get some wonderful salamis.

After touring Hans Smallgoods, as beautifully clean as it was, I will not, ever, never ever ever eat commercially made smallgoods again.
 
kerry-anne has made comments relating to protesters - specifically that those glued to the ground should be left there....maybe used as a speed hump.

quick poll on neil mitchells show, 100% of callers agreed with her citing aussie larakanism as the tone.

im gonna use larikanism as my reason whenever i do anything now. :D

Lung is deliberately sourced for commercial meat pies because it gives texture and blood to get the protein count up

I have a book on making Italian small goods and they stress there is a shame if your guest gets a bit of gristle/tendon caught in their teeth when trying it.
You only use back fat as it melts in the mouth other fat has a chewy residue.

Commercial small goods is mince " it " until its unrecognisable

Absolutely correct.

I go over and lend a hand in the fun and the old man and mumma are always there supervising.
God help you if you leave a bit of sinew or tendon in the mix.
And yes, back fat, only ever back fat.
Some smoked and some left to cure in their old concrete feed silo.
Unbelievably good with a cold beer or glass of red.

On a side note, since I've been laid up with knee replacements I have been getting some unbelievable eggplant lasagnes and other pasta treats each week.

I'm getting fat.
