I thought pink slime in mcdonald was crazy, now claim is that there aren't enough cows to make this much beef.

Ahhhh hold on..... the numbers presented are not as alarming as the message intended.

23M lbs/mon Mcd burgers (0.76M lbs daily)
44M lbs/day beef production capacity

Assuming 30days/mon, M needs about 0.76M lbs/day still leaving 43.24M lbs, just about all of daily produced beef for the rest.

Not a big fan of most american fast foods in America though many of the same brands are wayyyy better around the world !!!! But there are other worse issues about fast foods than this message is trying to convey.

I only shop on the outside aisles (fruits/veggies). All center aisles are poison.

At some point this kind of thinking was “you are a liberal communist hippie”, finally the rest of low information society waking up from corporate propaganda and seeing just how screwed everything is. Always hated their worship of big corporations.

Same but I add lots of heathy meets and fats. Last month on a hunch I checked the chips aisle and they now have an avacado oil brand so I bought some. Pretty good. Grill up some marinated skirt steak, guac, salsa, cheese, make nachos!

They put them at the end of the (internal to) aisle at the bottom, basically on the floor though so that sucks. I just grabbed from the back hoping less foot-stuff on the bag.

They have other flavors too.

"Nixtamalized refers to corn that has undergone the nixtamalization process, a traditional Mesoamerican method where dried corn kernels are soaked and cooked in an alkaline solution, typically made with lime (calcium hydroxide) or wood ash.

This process softens the corn, removes the inedible outer hull (pericarp), and significantly enhances its nutritional profile by increasing the bioavailability of essential nutrients such as niacin (vitamin B3), calcium, iron, and magnesium.

The resulting product, known as nixtamal, is then rinsed and ground into masa dough, which is used to make tortillas, tamales, and other traditional Mexican dishes.

Without nixtamalization, corn would be difficult to grind and lacks sufficient nutritional value, particularly in terms of niacin, which is crucial for preventing pellagra."

The ingredients list isn't frightening either.
