There is a New Secret Ingredient in Your Burgers: Wood Pulp.

[jeff of pa]

On Monday, Quartz published an article by Devin Cohen titled, There is a Secret Ingredient in Your Burgers: Wood Pulp. Given the headline and people’s already present suspicion regarding all of the shady and potentially dangerous ingredients hidden in food items, the article gained a lot of traction. In subsequent days, most journalists and bloggers have focused on the dangers of this additive (unclear) and whether or not it is pervasive throughout the food chain as opposed to just fast food (it appears to be).

the only things I ever eat at Mick-D's is their Burgers & fries,
\although they tasted OK to me

when I have a choice I prefer Burger Kings.

Mcdoogles burgers are a bit more Pressed then BK's like they are trying to squeeze the juice out,
& Mickeey'D's Fries are thinner & Harder then I like also.

as for content I only go By what I read, but to be Honest...
they can't scare me. they could add Dog , rat or Cat & If I'm hungry, i'll still stop.

If it were really Dangerous, they would Not risk the Law suits.

I doubt we'll ever see their sign say

Cellulose has been used in food for years. Trees are just one of many plants it is made from. Like your grated Parmesan cheese that comes in the shaker jar? You can enjoy that convenience because of powdered cellulose. Like your light and airy ice cream and whipped toppings? Thank cellulose. The list goes on and on.
