Considering that McDonald's sells more hamburgers than anybody else on the planet, it's not surprising that their beef gets a lot of attention. Others claimed that the burgers were filled out with worm meat gasp! Both of these rumors have since been proven false. Unsettling rumors aside, one still has to wonder just how this fast food behemoth goes about handling its meat.
Video The beef patties are made with beef cuts such as the chuck, round, and sirloin. Inside the plant, the beef is ground, formed and frozen to maintain quality and flavor. It takes 30 minutes for beef to go from grinding to finished pure beef patties that enter the flash freezer.
The plant ships 10 truckloads of McDonald's hamburger patties from Cargill's Fresno plant daily. Video The Cargill Fresno plant was started in to serve McDonald's by providing beef patties to its restaurants in six western states, but Cargill has been in the beef business in Fresno since The Fresno facility employ people.
If a customer complains that they've found something in their burger, McDonald's first question is where and when the burger was bought. Due to numerous quality checks at OSI, it's almost impossible for anything to turn up in the meat. In the event of a serious complaint regarding food safety, we immediately examine the entire chain — but that rarely happens. The boxes show exactly when a burger was produced, where the meat came from, and where the burgers are headed.
So if there's something wrong with the meat, it's easy for McDonald's to know within a few hours which slaughterhouse and farm the meat came from. Because cows are registered at birth, everything that happens to them is recorded, and every change of owner is registered. Using a special code on the box, you can even find the exact cow the meat came from. But if we use the word 'Dutch' in a name for a limited-edition burger like the Dutch Deluxe, for example, we guarantee that all the meat comes from the Netherlands.
Before the boxes disappear, another sticker is placed on them saying where the burgers came from and where they're going. On the same industrial estate, you'll also find the factory where the buns for Germany's hamburgers are made. A hamburger is typically on your plate within three weeks of the cow's slaughter, McDonald's said. Koekkoek added: "That said, the taste experience of hamburgers all over the world may be slightly different because of the amount of salt and pepper used — some countries like more salt than others.
But that's the only difference, apart from the origin of the beef. For you. World globe An icon of the world globe, indicating different international options.
