All their beef comes from accredited British farms who meet all the required standards. Others sell horse meat from Romania and call it 100% beef.

They are not as bad as some think and maybe were some time ago.

I think that's probably true. I think they still serve some ****e in America though where the food standards are more relaxed.

Apparently so, but they still manage to make it taste like dog food.

And eat a McDonalds, the room ****ing stinks for hours, decent food shouldn't smell that bad.

It's still fast food trash thats processed so it doesn't waste, it's not something you visit if you want fresh healthy food
Or somewhere you take a date

There are many worse places though

Burger King burgers taste better, but for some reason they make their fries out of wallpaper paste.
 
Wimpey's burgers in the seventies wonderful and much better that you get today. IMO the taste has gone backwards, they were much more enjoyable then.

because now the food is made so it doesn't 'rot' like fresh produce so it saves money on transport costs and storage etc
the original mcdonalds was pure decent beef back when it was a sole restaurant

You seem very knowledgable on McDonalds in the late 40s/early 50s.

I saw the film about it which was semi-interesting up to a point, but not useable as a food quality guide. Care to point to your source on what consisted a McDonalds beef patty in the late 40s?

Word of mouth
 
**** it, I think it's time for some Milton Jones.

I’ll never forget the last words my old grandad said to me before he kicked the bucket.

He said “Son, let’s see how far I can kick this bucket....."

About a month before he died, my grandfather, we covered his back full of lard – after that he went downhill very quickly.

If you're being chased by a police dog, try not to go through a tunnel, then on to a little see-saw, then jump through a hoop of fire. They're trained for that!

My dad said he was just going to pop upstairs, so he went upstairs and popped.

My wife... its difficult to say what she does... she sells seashells on the seashore.

I lost my job as a cricket commentator for saying “I don’t want to bore you with the details”.

Old ladies in wheelchairs with blankets over their legs, I don’t think so…retired mermaids.

The worst job I ever had was as a forensicologist for the United Nations. One time I thought I'd come across the mass grave of a thousand snowmen, but it turns out it was just a field of carrots.

The firemen were going to go on strike, but a poll was taken and they all fell through a hole in the floor.

Do like Milton Jones
Went to see him while at Edinburgh Festival with Askew and the ladies. At the start he asked the audience where he should set the story he was going to improvise through the show. Required swift thinking and loud mouths...so the show was duly set in Hull !
