As the concise toilet graffiti reminds us: ‘The human body takes 24 hours to turn good food into shit. McDonald’s can do it in five minutes.’

McDonald’s loses lawsuit against chef Jamie Oliver, who proved that the food they sell is unfit for human consumption because it is highly toxic.

Chef Jamie Oliver

Chef Jamie Oliver won a lawsuit against the world’s largest fast-food chain. Oliver demonstrates how hamburgers are made.

According to Oliver, fatty cuts of meat are ‘washed’ with ammonium hydroxide and then used to fill the hamburger patties. Even before this process, the TV presenter says, this meat was unfit for human consumption.

Dog Food

Oliver, a radical activist chef taking on the food industry, says:

‘We are talking about meat that is sold as dog food and then served to humans. Aside from the quality of the meat, ammonium hydroxide is harmful to health.’ Oliver calls it ‘the pink slime process.’

Child Cruelty

What sane person would put a piece of meat soaked in ammonium hydroxide into a child’s mouth?

In another initiative, Oliver demonstrated how chicken nuggets are made: After the ‘best parts’ are selected, the rest- fat, skin, cartilage, eyes, bones, head, feet- is subjected to a mechanical separation process called ‘Canica’

This is a euphemism used by food engineers. This blood-pink paste, which is deodorized, bleached, refreshed, and re-colored, is then coated in flour and deep-fried.

Unfit for human consumption

It is typically fried in partially hydrogenated oils—in other words, toxic substances.

The food industry uses ammonium hydroxide as an antimicrobial agent, allowing McDonald’s to use meat in its hamburgers that is unfit for human consumption.

Legal?

Even more alarming, however, is the fact that these ammonium-hydrogen-based substances are considered ‘legal components of the production process’ in the global food industry, with the approval of health authorities.

Consequently, consumers will never know what substances are in their food. Please stop giving this fake food to your children.

NOTE: Jamie Oliver launched a highly publicised campaign against the fast-food chain’s use of “pink slime” (a processed beef trimmings product treated with ammonium hydroxide), which successfully pressured McDonald’s into changing its recipe in 2011. However, this was a public advocacy campaign rather than a lawsuit, and McDonald’s never actually sued Oliver as part of this dispute. Send us your comments
