Large companies have been the subject of rumors that they substitute unusual or unethical substances in their products, usually to decrease costs. McDonaldโ€™s is not immune to such claims. McDonaldโ€™s has been accused of using everything from worms to cow eyeballs in its burgers. Dating far back to at least 1978, there have been rumors that McDonaldโ€™s restaurants use earthworms in their hamburgers.

The fact that McDonaldโ€™s uses cow eyeballs and worm fillers does not stop them from legally using the claim that they served 100% beef. McDonaldโ€™s has assured its consumers that its product contains 100% beef. They are allowed to do this because McDonaldโ€™s buys their โ€œbeefโ€ from a company called โ€œ100% Beef Company,โ€ making it possible for McDonaldโ€™s to call beef byproducts and soy products โ€œ100% beef.โ€

McDonaldโ€™s then ships the beef to their grinding facility in Oak Brook, Illinois where they then take the ground worm filler and add it to their โ€œ100% beef patties.โ€

McDonaldโ€™s serves billions of people around the world every year. This allows them to produce a higher profit margin by increasing the amount of patties that can be made, by increasing their product load with the worm filler. The worm filler is ground and packaged in a facility next to McDonaldโ€™s corporate headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois.

The employees must sign a confidentiality waiver to never discuss the ingredients of the McDonaldโ€™s food products or face termination and legal repercussions. However many employees have stepped up over the years with the truth and have created a huge controversy over the quality of food that the company produces.

McDonaldโ€™s has also been accused of using mutant laboratory meat, and pig fat their milkshakes and ice cream. Considering that one quarter of Americans eat McDonaldโ€™s every single day, although nutritionists recommend you do so only once a month, they are doing so unaware of the products they are putting into their body. If everybody truly knew what they were consuming, they definitely would not be eating this.๏ปฟ
