    i don’t see how that affects the nutrition of the beef. You can only mix so much fat in because it melts away when you fry the burger up. They aren’t using lymph nodes and such the FDA requires them to call out non meat ingredients. The beef doesn’t lose nutrients as the pieces get smaller. They weren’t using prime cuts in the 80’s, either.

      Im not a dietician or a rancher, but not all beef is created equal. Being “beef” doesnt mean every cow is the same nutritionally. Its not just a ratio of muscle to fat that affects that. What cattle are fed, how they are treated/slaughtered, how much time they roam all effects the nutrients in the meat. I guarantee all of the above are worse in the cattle McDonald’s uses, even compared to the 80’s.

        what’s available on google is not really agreeing with your proposition here outside of grain fed/grass fed, and even there the difference is slight and mcdonald’s was definitely never serving grass finished beef. Your guarantee is worthless, you’re just spreading baseless FUD. There’s plenty of real reasons Mcdonald’s sucks you don’t have to invent spurious claims about the meat.
