Woman gound dead IN a machind that process Mc Donalds food.

Ok there goes my plans for taking my son and his friends next week. Just the thoughts this has brought to me head. What machine? How did she get into it? They left so many questions un answered. What does this make you think about eating at Mcdonalds in the next few weeks?

"Its Web site says the company supplies McDonald's and developed the sauce for the restaurant's Big Mac in the 1960s."

What the hell. Isn't the "special sauce" just Thousand Island dressing?

I wouldn't think too much of this. Yeah, it's an unpleasant thought, but I think it would be highly unlikely that any form of contamination could occur. And it doesn't even mention the manner of death. Hell, she could have just keeled over of a heart attack and pitched into the machine while the machine was turned off.

There are plenty of other reasons to steer clear of McDonald's, or fast food in general, aside from this story. Although their new Angus burgers are pretty damned good...

  I always knew there was something familiar about their meat.

Has anybody tried the McJackson burger ?

It's a big piece of meat between two little buns...

I try not to eat at McDonald's much anyway and rarely let my kids have it. Wouldn't worry about this incident though. I am sure the whole area was shut down and fully sanitized before they would resume. Not only that it would be under investigation before the machine could be used again anyway. I thought the story about the 3 accused of letting rats bite and chew off the toes of a 6 week old baby (it was a link on the news site when I read McDonald's story) was so completely disturbing that I completely blanked out what I read about McDonalds for a minute. Sick people out there

I haven't eaten at McDonald's for years; not since the company claimed it had switched to vegetable oil for all of its cooking but didn't mention that its french fries were cooked with beef tallow.

How strange...I just saw in a local (South African) newspaper about a similar incident in a meat processing near my town. This time it was a man and the machine was turned on.

Very bizarre and grotesque coincidence...

There's a newly-opened Mc Donald near my house and I think it's better not to go there. Thanks for the info.

Sounds awful. I always preferred vegetarian burgers in any case. Poor woman (or man) as the case might be.
