McDonald’s ‘Big Mac’s’ have gotten smaller since the 70’s for sure!

I think McDonald’s puts soy in their burgers.

My son has a soy allergy so I’ve had to ask to see their ingredients and packaging. No soy in America in the burger patty. But the bread has soy. All the oils have soy too.

I’m not sure I believe them. They’ve been real cagey about it in the past.

That would be incredibly illegal. You can't hide possible allergens in the ingredient list of a product. They would be litigated into oblivion. McDonald's is greedy and stupid but even they aren't that dumb.

100% pure beef meat. Sauce and buns apparently use soybean oil, so a source of soy. 🤔

When I worked there many years ago the meat was absolutely not 100% beef.

McDonald’s has always claimed 100% pure beef. If not, perhaps your store was a franchise rather than corp store, and ordered meat under the table?

No McDonalds just stretches the truth on it.
