Comments on Update: Ohhh, It Was Just a Metaphor

huh, i thought they had phased out beef in favor of post-consumer waste. so much easier to bulldoze than fallen cattle.

echo!

I prefer the 28% beef from Dick's.

Dick's is great, but global warming friendly Beefalo from our area is even Better!

Is that banksy?

Isn't the big mac at least 60% bun? And surely the tomatoes-sauce-lettuce-cheese-pickles-onions takes up some volume? In addition to the shit.

Nothing like fresh organic tomatoes, some local lettuce, organic pickles, and other fine ingredients to change your mind ...

good reporting miss morgan

slow news day.

Yes, Will. We get it.

Hippie.

Wow look at the dumb masses, liking beef and cheap food. Sure are dumb.

And that sign? Well it's illogical as hell. Wow, the masses are so dumb....

More likely 99% beef 1% pathogenic bacteria.

I want to know what Jay thinks.

Since when is "The Man" a Mexican worker with a minimum wage painting job?

I wouldn't eat cows if they weren't so damn tasty.

Beefalo is tastier.

“What kind of bold claim is it that you actually make a beef food out of beef?”

My sister-in-law once worked for an ad agency that represented one of the smaller national burger chains; the first campaign she worked on for them was for a newly-launched burger. When she was told that her "100% real beef" ad was a no-go, she was stunned to be told that her follow-up idea using the phrase "real meat" or "100% real meat" was also a no-go because, well, the burgers weren't.

Pray tell oh anonymous one... which smaller national burger chain?

It's not so much a bold claim as a best defnse is a good offense type strategy, because they fear people supsect them of.. see @18.

I forget it was McDonalds, I think it was them, I saw somebody advertising about ten years ago that they were using Real Cheese and my first, gut reaction is, my gawd, they've found a way to make a plastic cheese food but copyright a name that makes you think they're not using a plastic cheese food.

@19: can't say, but its initials are DQ. Oh, wait...
