McDonald's actually has some of the highest standards with quality (food supplies) and food safety. They have to, with the business they are in.... You should worry a lot more about what you buy at T&T or Costco...., and what you eat at some of the small restaurants...

Actually, a very good family friend is best friends with the president of a Alberta Cattle Assoc... I talked with him once, and he stated that Costco is one of the best places for consumers to get top quality beef.
I am not sure your point about Costco is valid... Just wondering, you use to work for Costco? However I can tell you I got my comments from one of the big guys in the industry.
Costco isn't cheaper in price, but you get higher grade and better cuts compared to places like safeway (local grocery stores). I myself enjoy a good cut of beef (love my striploin), and do buy from Costco.
