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...
Please educate us

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.

actualy you know 5 guys was on Dr Oz yesterday as one of the lowest calorie burgers, and suprisingly lower fat also, you can get. about 3/4 of a big mac has. its not the amopunt of fat that makes them good but the type of beef they use, the way there cooked and the amount of toppings you can pick from.

Awsome, I'll show this to the wife and she won't be able to complain about my low fat and calorie bacon double cheese burgers anymore!
