# Wai!
It's so bad that there is no flavour or smell what so ever.
Anything you taste is chemical additive. They're so strong in concentrate for that if you were to drop about twenty drops of each in an Olympic sized swimming pool after it circulated you have a big mac tasting and smelling pool!

EDIT: They don't treat their staff much better. Try Googling Macdonalds workers and unions and see what you get.

# It might do where you are, but not here in Oz
Here, max time from abattoir to your dinner burger is 3-6 months, depending on what freezing regime they use. We have done a couple of storage trials for Maccas where I work (not-so-secret Govt. organisation) and your frozen burgers are normally no more than 4 months of age, as after that, the fat oxidises and starts to go rancid, even at -80 degees Celsius.

# Their burgers are really lovely - and...
They will cook them rare, too!

plus - the garlic mayo they do for the chips is awesome.

# Nom nom nom
That does sound tasty indeed. I can't eat spicy food because it makes my face explode and I'm allergic to pasta, so finding good places to eat is kind of difficult. But that's awesome! My tastebuds thank you :)

# I find their garlic mayo disturbing...
... it's so much stronger than simply eating garlic that it's a little off-putting.

Fantastic burgers thou' - had one for lunch on Monday and it was first class.

# Yeah, well there's a trick to that....
The definition of 'steak' is a pretty loose one. Any piece of meat that is classed as tissue meat (i.e. not offal or 'green' meat as it can be so quaintly referred to) can fall under the nomenclature of 'steak quality'. It's essentially a nonsense word combo, as I know I've had some pretty low quality steaks in my time!
