Conspiracy Theories

[Slsheeba567]

So I was just browsing around on the Internet, not looking for anything specific when I came across a comment that said McDonald’s is made from the flesh of children, then I discovered the movie Soylent Green, and it’s all gone downhill from there, and I’m afraid to eat anything from fear it is made from human flesh disguised as meat. I feel like I’m going crazy and I’m so so scared that we are currently living in Soylent Green, and I just wish I never stumbled across that comment in the first place. I feel like a paranoid wreck now. I hate conspiracy theories.

I know once you fixate on something its hard
But really, do try to think logically here

Mcdonalds meat is not made from human flesh

I stumbled on this and was intrigued. I too have heard people say that flesh, babies, dogs, etc are all used in our fast foods. Sometimes, just sometimes, conspiracy theories are made up rubbish, by very bored people, or folks with an axe to grind. If you watch YouTube there are many videos that show how the food is made. I was impressed about their chicken nuggets, they show from start to finish, and they use fresh, white meat chicken, with no fillers, and not a lot of junk. Now granted they may not be the healthiest things to eat but once I saw the video I had a craving for some.

I have a really big thing for conspiracy theories, I'm a bit obsessed with them. But this isn't one of them. I know for a fact that big chains (not the little greasy spoons and one off ratburger stalls) like McDs are really heavily audited these days. There's just noooo way.

CTs are almost always a load of baloney, usually concocted by smart alecs with nothing better to do, in pursuit of their proverbial 'fifteen minutes of fame'!!

I never take them seriously without knowing the full facts in advance.

I couldn't agree more... more often than not, these snake-oil salesman aka authors of these conspiracy theories are only in it to make some easy cash out of people's fears and ignorance. CT's can also be very damaging physically and mentally for yourself and others.

The McDonalds thing started from a spoof article. Google 'Huzlers and McDonalds'. Unfortunately, people reproduced the article without linking to the original source which led to some people thinking it was real.

No need to ditch the Big Mac cocker, it contains beef, not child (or horse).

Ah, I see it's an old post, but it still stands because it shows how gullible people can be.

That said, Elvis is alive and working in Tesco!

I thought he worked down the chip shop?

He was working down the chip shop, but he left because the owners have suspicious minds and they thought he was nicking chip oil for his quiff. He works in Tesco now - way down at the back of the store in goods in.

Yes they should have linked the original source. Now lots of people are really feared of eating nuggets from McDonalds
