McDonald’s rolling out biggest burgers yet
Move over Big Mac. McDonald's is releasing a trio of amped-up premium burgers for a limited time.
The "Sirloin Third Pound" burgers will be made from 100 percent ground sirloin and feature patties weighing in at a third of a pound. The move comes as the chain pushes to improve perceptions about the quality of its food-- even after the chain said it would be cutting several menu items.
The new burgers will reportedly be offered in three varieties: Lettuce & Tomato, Bacon & Cheese and Steakhouse, which comes with grilled mushrooms and onions, white cheddar and peppercorn sauce.
At a third of a pound, these sirloin burgers will be the biggest beef patties on the chain's menu since the Angus Third Pounders were dropped from the menu in 2013. At the time, some analysts said the Angus burgers were too pricey for McDonald's customers. http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2015/04/08/mcdonalds-rolling-out-biggest-burgers-yet/

I have enough problems to get back down to my Air Force weight of 175Lbs that another bigger burger I don't need. Besides, MacDonald burgers always taste too salty, especially the Big Mac. We have a Jack in the Box a few blocks from us and when I want to cheat I get an Ultimate Cheeseburger and then it's back to nothing but a (fairly big) bowl or two a day of unsweetened cereal. Hey it's crazy, but it took me from 230lbs down to 185 in less then a year. Now I seem to have hit a plateau because I started eating those damned burgers again. I'll hit 175 and stay there no matter what!
Nobody need's to eat burgers that big for any reason then they can...and that's a god-damned stupid reason.
Q: DO YOU IMPORT BEEF FROM BRAZIL, FROM CLEAR-CUT RAINFORESTS? DO YOU IMPORT CHICKEN FROM CHINA?
MCDONALD'S: Most of our beef we use in our U.S. restaurants comes from the U.S, although we import a small percentage of our 100% beef from suppliers in Australia and New Zealand to supplement our U.S. purchases. These suppliers must also meet McDonalds quality and safety standards and USDA regulations. In fact, weve maintained a global policy against using beef sourced from de-forested rainforests since 1989. You can learn more about our long history of sustainable land management practices here .
All of the chicken we use in our U.S. restaurants is born and raised in the U.S. and comes from our trusted USDA-inspected American suppliers.
