Even more so the coffee in Accy Mcd's. I have complained to the duty manager twice in the past couple of months that there coffee is not as strong as any other Mcd's. I'm convinced the machine is faulty

Re: I'M LOVIN' IT...............not!!!
Unless you buy ethically produced meat all the time,100% or are a committed veggie or vegan you really have no soap box to stand on. No one should criticise anyone's carnivorous habits ;even veggies. It's a matter of choice, I now choose to eat meat ( I was veggie for 17 years); are you a vegetarian Lilly ?

No.I'm not a vegetarian.I don't eat a lot of meat but I'm not vegetarian.Vegetarians are strongly against the idea of slaughtering animals for food in any circumstances.As I said before,I'm not against slaughtering animals for food but this can and should be carried out in a humane way.There is no need for the barbaric cruelty practised by companies such as KFC.Why do they do the cruel things I posted in the link in my first post in this thread when it is un-necessary?I won't buy animal products that I know have not been ethically produced.I won't buy from any company that treats the animals cruelly and I won't buy battery hen's eggs as those hens are subject to un-necessary suffering too.

Of course I don't advocate animal cruelty. I just don't think there is a nice way to raise animals just so we can kill and eat them.
Which brings me on to your next point.

I notice you live in Ossy. If you would like to spend some of your time helping make the park a nice place to visit then I am sure I can sort you out with some very fresh and definitely free range eggs.

There is.They don't have to do the things they do to the animals.What I am against is dropping chickens fully conscious into scalding water and other atrocious acts carried out as detailed in this link.This link details some of the awful acts and how things could be done differently.

Re: I'M LOVIN' IT...............not!!!
The chickens are dead befor ethey go in the scalding water bath. First they are elctric shocked, then there jugulars are cut. Any movement that goes on after that is "normal" with poultry. When we have to cut the heads off chickens they really do continue moving around ALOT. However, they are indeed quite dead. Again, it's the PETA people showing still moving chickens going in the vat and saying they are fully alive and all.
The feathers won't release from the bird unless they are dead. Hence, if the birds were going in alive, it would be a machine malfunction that would be quickly corrected.

MacDonalds? What are you playing at Slinky, feeding this muck to kids? In terms of a Child's health, eating a quarter pounder with cheese is the equivalent of smoking 20 B & H in one go.
Cut the crap, before it's to late.

Re: I'M LOVIN' IT...............not!!!
So - next time - spend 15 minutes making burgers with minced beef, a little flour and a beaten egg. Fry them in a little olive oil (or grill them) and put them on warm wholemeal rolls with lettuce, tomato, relish and Light Mayonnaise and top each one with a cheddar cheese slice. Give them a milk shake each.
The toys break within a few days, or are lost, so not worth bothering about. Home made is a quarter of the cost, no petrol for the journey, takes the same amount of time as driving to and from MacDonalds and more fun if you let them help make them. I wouldn't give tuppence for a Big Mac.

Idiot " yes "
Me " well i will have that then with coke "
Idiot took money and nearly threw change at me..............." window 3 "
got home, one toy boys, one toy girls YET AGAIN.......every bloody time, but thankfully we got chicken nuggets for kids, usually they mistaken chicken nuggets for fish fingers, seen as it sounds so alike
Big MC meal consisted of a bun ( which had probably been taken out of wrapping this morning and left on side, and salad that even my mums rabbit would turn his nose up at!!!!
Good Job I wasn't eating it inside!!! cos that school girl would not have been see'ing her key pad minus the double cheese burger meal ever again.
Rant over!!!!
