  • whoever typed the subtitle might want to watch it again you messed up like 10 times

  • Ammonium hydroxide can be used for cleaning, yes. But saying that a "cleaning product" is used to clean the meat slush?

    It is like saying that the street deicing chemical is used to flavor our food.

    This is yet an example of how americans in general are totally ignorant of basic chemistry and science in genera.

    How did these two get a high school diploma? Only in America...

    And later these kind of people will have power over the rest of us, passing stupid laws to protect us against our-self..

  • I am a guy that doesn't really like sweets, but, while in the Navy and being overseas, (Gulf area) I could not get enough of the Twix bars and Cola Colas there.

  • I know from personal experience that what she says is true. Cross a border and eat at a McDonald's in that country, and there's a high chance that a lot of the menu there tastes very differently than what you're used to.

    (PS.: If you're from the US, then it's going to taste better and probably going to be a lot less nasty and unhealthy no matter where you go. Sad truth.)

  • In the UK they use chicken breast

  • Oh America, why you so fat for?

  • ... basically ... basically ... basically ...basically ...basically ...basically ...

  • woooh! good job jamie :)

  • hurray for being a Canadian

  • ok no more McDonalds for me. (the clown freaked me out anyways)

  • "The other pink meat"

  • Sooo.. they are removing ammonium hydroxide, does that actually mean they will stop using the slime altogether?

  • Ah capitalism. Those pinko socialist commies in Canada and Europe... they actually eat food in their fast food!?! They NEED to dereg. and eat the same puke that a profiteer passes for nutrition, if they know what's good for them.

  • ChapterElevenStudios yep liberals would rather kill themselves using drugs unfortunately.

  • I am so glad I am Canadian

  • HOW MUCH did they pay the BITCH ?

  • Dude I usually drunk or high when I eat fast food so I don't give a fuck. If I cared I would go make my own food instead and just not buy it.

  • Comment removed

  • I dont know why this was ever legal in the first place. How about those "liberals" huh? How dare they try to stop people from eating garbage than can kill them.

  • @ChapterElevenStudios If I want to kill myself via eating crap, I have a right to do so.

  • what a dum fucking article bitch get your facts straight. keystone foods make all the burgers for mcdonalds they have like 30 processing facilities world wide. and canada has shitter food safety standards than the usda so fuck off

  • .......and they said asians ate gross things.....

  • well i'll be damned! i didn't know they stopped using this crap. the reason why i stopped going to mcdonalds is because their angus burgers smelled like ammonia. now i think i'll give them another try.

    thanks jamie oliver!

  • i hvae seen people eat worst on FEAR FACTOR

  • lol, how did I know that these clowns would turn a non-political subject into a "bash America" rant, and a call for more pointless government regulation? How typically liberal. ;)

    Wonder why in France and Germany, nearly twice as many people smoke cigarettes as Americans do? Guess we Americans just have standards, unlike those filthy Europeans.

  • HEY its a good thing we eat anything talk to me when were the only continent living because we eat ANYTHING

  • Jamie Oliver has a enough of a reputation to have this in effect. Hes the host of two or three very popular television series and is well know across the board for his health and fine dining meals. Hes actually a celebrity of sorts do to some connection with some other famous people, whom I'm not sure of.

  • People are still going to mcdonalds and eating that shit still! I guess they didn't get the memo or they just don't care! They said they are not using the pink slime no more, but what other chemicals are they using in their food other than the pink slime. I'm pretty sure there are more chemical shit they are using in their foods and still not telling the american people!

  • I think I'm gonna throw up.

  • I hate it when people are like thumbs up if you are listening to this in 2012. its Like NO I'm listening to this in 1500 B.C. on my IStone.

    P.S. I think I have eaten my last bowl of chicken nuggets...

  • looks more like strawberry ice cream lol

  • 0:52 Jamie Oliver, " Look At Me NOw "

  • @recheveste31

    Yeah he's a massive attention whore but I kinda like him. xD

  • Ana, you can come and stay at my place in Canada any time you want. We have McDonald's right across the street :)

  • knew it .

  • wake up guys this is the same as all burgers just minus the fine grinding. also 40% of most hamburgers from small family restaurants are made from beef hearts. trust me, i make it every day.

  • @itchynoob What's wrong with beef hearts? o.O The only thing I mind are the eyes and the hooves. Take those out and eat everything else :D Organs won't do you any harm! xD

  • @Alguien208 You do realize everyone is against you, dumbfuck.

  • HAHA I is in Canada LOL :D

  • Dammit why do I keep accidentally clicking on these "young turks" morons?

  • @WalterLiddy probably because you have shitty fine motor skills.

  • yeah i dont touch anything thats processed , can only be what you wouldnt want to eat since its flavored to taste good, so can only assume its adulterated and apart of some chemical warfare organization who hate you for having to get your consent first, don't buy into it buy real meat

  • She goes to Europe and eats in a McDonals...

    So tipically american...

  • @Alguien208 Are you fucking stupid?

  • @Sneezlebob No. And you? (Yes).

  • @Alguien208 If you came to America (US), wouldn't you want familiar food every now and then?

  • @HetTerZiele No, unless I go there to live. If I go to another country for tourism, or even temporary, I use to eat food from that country. It's just pathetic to go somewhere for some weeks, and not enjoying the place you're visiting.

    No wonder americans have fame of not appreciating other cultures and being so self-centered.

  • @Alguien208 Did you seriously just write that last bit? Now who is being the condescending one? America was built off of immigrants, and I wouldn't go so far as to say fast food is "American" food. So what she got a hamburger? Not like she camped out in McDonald's the whole time. Oh wait... what's that? A McDonald's in Europe? Well hot damn, that's also European fast food now isn't it?

  • @Alguien208 You're unable to spell properly.

    So typically American  =P

  • @Alguien208 Typically*

  • @Alguien208

    Come on... You go to Europe and you wouldn't eat at McDonalds just out of curiousity?

    Just once... I'm pretty sure in most European countries you can even get a beer @ McDonalds.. Definitely in Germany/Holland...

  • @Alguien208 Not typical in my household. I can not remember the last time I ate at McDonald's plus I do not watch a lot of TV. Not everyone in this country is lost.

  • @Alguien208 My dear, it's because Americans don't appreciate good and healthy food :p

  • @Alguien208 dude you don't know how big the difference really is. she's pointing out that fast food joints in Europe have higher standards and thus higher quality products due to better food regulation. FDA sucks, more so then EU food regulators, this much is obvious

  • @Alguien208 Alright, if you're going to criticize Americans, learn to spell, please. I don't understand it - don't you see the red dots under your words?

  • @Alguien208 : Typical European to import American fast food chains, give them their business, then bash someone b/c they're American for eating at the same place.

  • Thier captions are wrong :P

  • ... I got here from iJustine....

  • This is why European small is a 30 inch waist and american small is 42inch lol :p

  • @yeovildancer since when is 30 small? I am 236 lbs and my waist is 32

  • @BerriesMcGOO because 30/28 is the smallest size waist you can get before its classed as children's wear, top heavy? lol xD

  • @yeovildancer no not really, my legs don't fit either. Im not fat but I know of plenty of people that wear 24-28 waist

  • @BerriesMcGOO 110? :D don't know my waistline. I don't eat meat or anything- I'm vegan.

  • does anyone remember that spongebob episode when they were turning shit into crabby patties, they warned us lol

  • @edspacely92

    IKR

  • Gee thanks, now im going to be eating "a ton of bacteria"

  • odds and ends of cow parts.... would like some cow penis

  • the burgers are not made that away,i worked at meat plant in the early 2000s.it was very clean,but i dont eat thier burgers any more ,its the taste,grease,salt just too much

  • mcDonald's in portugal is so good. :D

  • you are what you eat.

  • hommis and veggie bean dip or Mcdonald's value meal

    shit flavored chocolate or chocolate flavored shit

    ........you decide

  • The pink slime is what gives many items on the McDonald's menu, their distinctive taste. They tried this back in the 80's with Coca-Cola. They tried to mess with the formula, but the people rose up and made their voices heard. I suspect the same thing will happen here. Bring back the slime!

  • that looks like strawberry ice cream

  • so true usa are fat fucks dont rage im from the usa im only telling the truth

  • I no longer find this gross after finding out about human fece buger meat in Japan!

  • And we wonder why we have the highest cancer rate in the world...

  • actually in England we have 99p burgers and there still 100% beef, so that is piss poor and this is why we need regulation. because if they can manage to make it just as cheaply here or almost as cheaply because 99p is more than 99c .

  • Pretty sad richest country in the world in certain terms and we have no restrictions on our food like other countries. She said some countries have signs saying "no u.s meat here", wow!

  • @david3iie Emphasis on rich...it's all about money. As a whole this country doesn't care about the well being of its citizens.

  • If youre in America, you dont have to worry about starving to death- nah, we have mounds and mounds of cheap ass disgusting shit you can eat instead! Dont blame us if you turn out to be eating ammonium hydroxide or other household cleaning chemicals though. What the fuck does the FDA even do?

  • Stupid American's.. Mcdonald's burgers are made out of 100% beef!

  • @Patrioten1913 yes in the rest of the world they are because we have regulations on what you can do to our food. Sorry Americans my fellow here seems to be somewhat of an idiot and didn't get the point of the video.

  • Comment removed

  • Homemade meal with good organic produce every day <3

    I dont even let my kid eat non-organic its much more important for him them an old pthalat,lead gasoline,aspartame,flouride damaged guy like me :p

  • @jsgdk Oh, so you're gay?

  • jamieee!

  • Just wait until the Soylent Green Mcdonalds Opens!! lol. Ughh

  • It still tastes AWESOME!!!! NOM NOM NOM!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • i dont care it tastes good lol

  • @mhfutotalmaster would you eat my shit if it had sprinkles and and sugar on it?

  • @AndriusFalkauskas Astronauts do every day asshole. You eat organic vegetables? Guess what fucktard, you're eating cow poop.

  • @AndriusFalkauskas What colour sprinkles?

  • I had McDonalds today.

  • who cares. you are already eating mcdonalds.

  • The captions are horribly off. Pink slime is read as kinks line.. Really?

  • This meat is used in the food that your kids eat in school & the school boards have stated on record that they will not stop feeding this to our children in school lunches

  • I will always be a loyal Mcdonalds customer! <3

  • this titles misleading

  • I don't know about you guys but seeing the pink slime makes me want some whipped jello

  • Every time I click a link and it's TheYoungTurks, I die a little inside.

  • No more Wendy's Double Stacks for me. McDonalds lost me when I watched the cashier dig crud out of the tread of her shoe with her finger and wipe it off on the counter. I can only guess what they put in hot dogs.

  • this shit may seem nastey but its fine the shit tastes good and they put this shit in it to protect us from bacteria so fuck you guys

  • @xxRANDOMxASITxGETSxx usually i'd agree with you, but they lost me at ammonia

  • @jabooper you make a good point i either missed that or didnt get that far. however we have been eating this stuff for years and we are well aware that it is bad for you regardless of us knowing of this slime.

  • PINK SLIME includes boogers

  • you know mcdonalds was like oh shit they found us out. They publicly say they discontinue ammonia hydrates and switch to something that is chemically the same.

  • why the hell would someone go to a different country and eat mcdonalds

  • @itisCasper she dident specifically go there to eat it -_- she just said while she was there she had it...

  • @itisCasper She wasn't even stating that she went to another country and ate McDonalds. She was stating that in other countries the standards for McDonalds are higher. Infact that standard is general food production is higher anywhere else than it is in the US. Idiot.

  • @itisCasper Cause its actualy all real beef not just a company named all real beef selling slop

  • @itisCasper becouse buying a Big Mack from a hot girl with a brittish accent makes it taste better :-p *Vah-ery regal

  • @itisCasper Many places in Europe (at least Italy & Spain) close around noon thru early afternoon -- if you didn't know this beforehand you might be forced to patronize the only place that's open. Happened to us in Assisi several yrs ago, got there around 1:30pm with some very hungry kids, so had to go to McD's. McD's is very expensive in Europe too compared to here, and they've got a different menu.

  • @itisCasper People do...especially those who are homesick.

  • @itisCasper this is why i eat the 11 euro hamburgers, they use real meat.

  • @itisCasper Try LIVING in a foreign country for an extended period of time (and I mean a country significantly different from your own) - you'd be surprised what you crave after a year!

  • @itisCasper I'm guessing you've never traveled outside the US. I never eat McD's in the States (too many other healthier and tastier options), but when you're in a foreign country, McDonald's becomes much more attractive. Biggest plus is that you know what you're getting and that you won't get ripped off because you're a foreigner; on top of that, it's clean and they usually have free Wi-Fi.

    In fact, it's more mind-boggling that anybody in the STATES would eat at McD's.

  • @itisCasper japanese mcdonalds is supposedly amazing..

  • @itisCasper

    In-N-Out burger is sooo much better.

  • @itisCasper McDonald's is good in Germany 

  • THIS VIDEO SUCKS HAHAHA

  • Don't really see that much wrong with it. If you go to maccas, don't expect to get a 5 star treatment and it is still meat either way. It's actually a lot more efficient to eat the whole animal than to kill a few more of them just because someone doesn't like the way it looks.

  • There are 7 billion people to feed in the world. Anything that creates efficiency, while still providing at least basic nutrition is a step forward to being able to achieve that. Yes, it looks nasty in it's uncooked state, but so does every other meat product.

  • @robinvan1983 I live in Norway which has plenty protectionist policies towards our farmers and so forth. And to say the EU does not have protectionist policies is laughable. Have you seen how they treat imports from africa and south america in perticular? Have you not seen the support given to farmers in the EU?

  • @Xebioz i was talking within the EU not on a global scale. within the EU you don't have 2 or 3 cops dominating the whole European market. it maintains a diverse market which prevents large coporations to dominate markets.

  • @robinvan1983 Well, protectionism usually deals with trade relations with different entities (countries, 'unions' (like the EU) or continents). Just because there is no protectionism towards domestic production (why on earth would there be? That's just counter-productive for everyone) it's still protectionism. You don't see the EU as a faction or country, you see it more as a club with no enforced rules or conduct. That is wrong, as it's pretty much like the US federal government towards states

  • @Xebioz have you just randomly replied to my comments or have you actually read them? I never stated EU has no enforced rules. I have stated that the EU internal economy is more competitive based than the US one as the US economy leans more to a few larger corporations that dominate the market.

  • @robinvan1983 I talk about protectionism and you respond that this doesn't happen within the EU, i then respond to you by saying that the EU does have protectionist policies (protectionism has nothing to do with the market share of firms (How many there are) only that those outside the jurisdiction of the domestic authorities). I also explain that you have to treat the EU as a country in this case as the trade rules are similar. To this you say that I haven't read your comments. What did I miss?

  • @Xebioz To clarify (something messed up my protectionism explanation) Protectionism does not deal with market share, but with discriminating against FOREIGN TRADE. If you didn't want to talk about this issue, then why did you start responding to my comment on Protectionism?

  • @Xebioz Really? Ever wondered why EU stops Big Mergers in certain industries? Cause that was the point i was making all along

  • @robinvan1983 They stop big mergers to avoid monopoly market shares (every country has this so why is EU relevant?). And by the way, you responded to my comment first, which is why it might have been misleading for me (as if you read your comment over again it's not clear that you don't have a direct reply to my comment). Still don't see how stopping big mergers have anything to do with protectionism though. Protectionism is not about protecting certain companies (thats corporatism) (part 1)

  • @Xebioz Protectionism is about protecting domestic industries over that of foreign industries (through quotas and tariff's etc.). The EU definately does this so I don't see how anything you've said thus far have anything to do with Protectionist policies... And if it doesn't have anything to do with that, why reply to my comment about it? And saying that they're for mergers only mean they will create an oligopolistic market rather than monopolistic, as they still oppose foreign trade...

  • @Xebioz well you use the word protectionism for anything that isn't 100% free market. A subsidy isn't always protectionism. and if you don't see why don't stopping big mergers have anything to do with protectionism then you don't know economy. cause i explained it already

  • @robinvan1983 Seriously? Subsidies for all domestic production is not protectionism? I think it's time to stop this as you clearly can't see open protectionism in the market. If promoting your own local businesses by making their costs go down artificially how exactly is that not protectionism? Maybe you don't like the label (as many europeans I talk to this about don't), but if you don't like being against international trade maybe you should consider who you vote for. And protectionism (pt 1)

  • @Xebioz Has nothing to do with how free market something is, it's about promoting domestic business over that of foreign competitors, and subsidies for domestic, quotas and tarriff's for external business are signs of protectionism. Tell me one case where promoting domestic businesses with a subsidy and therefore lowering their prices artificially is not protectionism...

  • @Xebioz Subsidies does not mean Lowering prices.Most public transport is (partly) subsidized and the government uses the subsidy to demand safety regulations, on time quota's and availability. Other subsidies are there to promote new feasible technologies or starter subsidies to new small businesses, other subsidies are there to promote ecological awareness by making new waste management affordable and other promote disabled workers to be hired

  • that way is cook it longer.

  • This is what you Americans eat? This slop! And you love it?? You people have no standards when it comes to food. Britain isnt too far off.

    Why would you want to eat food that tastes and looks like dogshit?!

  • It's pink because it's raw.

    I sure wouldn't pay a buck nine for anything.

  • Wtf it's the blood? Is peeps be retarded?

  • It's efficient. And she says they only cut the ammonia. The mechanical separation is still present. I don't see what's wrong with the process, it's not a big deal it just looks gross. So does Mexican food.

  • Comment removed

  • 1.39 double cheese burgers in canada

  • she's hot

  • it looks like an epic meal time soft serve >:D

  • How about you stop using meat that is not meant to be eaten??? How about Americans, we not be so blind and see that this is all about profits... its not about cleaning meat.. They are shaving meat off the bone... this is not normal.. the meat is highly infested so to make it edible this is what they do??? Hello! This is not even reat meat they are given to us..its a meat product..

  • @conniewalker79 because its america, derp you guys have reputations around the world for being arrogant and blind for a buck

  • Fuck your AD shit.

  • I'll still stuff my fat face with a juicy Mc chicken and double cheeseburger with extra mustard and pickles after smoking a joint of OG chem dog.

  • ...Wait, so the 100% beef double quarter pounder isn't beef at all?!

    What the fuck?!

  • Yuck
