Can I get a little beef with that?

Many parents today are careful of exposing their children to lead paint, too many dyes in food, and high fructose corn syrup. They know that McDonald's is not a healthy meal due to the fat and calories. Often parents on the go accept the unhealthy meal as an occasional alternative. Would those same parents continue to purchase Happy Meals if they realized just how toxic the food is? I'm afraid for many the answer is yes. Fox News posted on twitter last night that @FoxBreaking that

 

McDonalds hamburgers are only 15% "Real Beef", the other 85% is meat filler cleansed with Ammonia which causes colon cancer.

Only 15% beef? What about the claims of 100% all beef patties?? I guess the meat filler is somehow considered beef. How is the McDonald's corporation allowed to get away with such a blatant lie? Why isn't the USDA doing something?

Well the answer is simple... we the consumer are not making the government hold this organization accountable. We don't hold them accountable for a couple of reasons.

• First is convenience. Many people run through the drive through while on their way from one place to another. Health is not always on the mind of the hungry driver. 
• Second, is the price. You can get a lot of food for under $7.00. If want you can order off the dollar menu and really go cheap.
• The third and most important reason is that we have been conditioned to think that McDonald's tastes great. We smell the fries and our mouth waters. The food industry know exactly how to illicit a response much like Pavlov's dog. They have added the right amount of fat, sugar, and salt to their foods so that when we eat it, the pleasure center of our brain lights up and we feel pleasure. This response is no different than when an illegal drug user gets a fix. Drug users know that their habit is unhealthy, but their addiction is stronger than reason... is that any different than us?

Knowledge is powerful and helps us to change. What are you going to do with this information?
