LOL....no McDonalds for this girl....have you seen the reports coming out of China....think that might be the end of my twice a year McDonalds visits.

Went to our local Italian restaurant....had angel hair pasta with sausage, mushrooms and roasted red pepper and tomato cream sauce....brought a lot home. Too much food.

What's happening here?

No haven't seen them. Guess I should be happy that I haven't ate there for a long time.

So I ask what did they say?

Guess Chinese tv cameras caught people who work for a company who supplies McDonalds with products, using expired meat and picking up meat off the ground when it was dropped and still using it. McDonald's earnings are down....especially in China. :facepalm:

KFC and Taco Bell get meat from there too. Other places too but I didn't recognize the name.

And this brings up the question of "Why does any place buy meat from China?
For one thing, it's so freaking far away!

I have no idea why so many grocery products come from China.....almost all seafood comes from China or Viet Nam or India or ?????? Why can't we buy USA sea food and fish?????? :glare::(:grr::grr::mad:

With everything that dumps into the Gulf of Mexico from the Mississippi River, the Gulf is about as nasty as anywhere else.

Pig brains and bird gizzards. :laugh:


Nah, not really. There are probably better uses for pig brains. :lol:

I think some hot dogs have healthier ingredients than others, but seems like the tastiest are sometimes the worst ones. :laugh: My very favorite hot dogs are the ones at Sam's Club little cafe. They are Nathan's big fat dogs.....I love them!! Really good with sauerkraut.

Had a taste of one of those the last time there. They were handing out samples.
My favorite is Oscar Mayer all beef.

Funny you say this....I do not like gulf shrimp at all....they have a really weird chemical/iodine/icky taste to me. Maybe it is the Mississippi River causing that.

But I suspect preservatives put on them so they will not go bad so fast.
