Here is the article:

The sad part - some children actually liked the slime! (they mentioned no exact percentage, methinks that sentence was included solely as a "Fair and Balanced" rejoinder...)

Accroding to the article it's not just Mcdonald's.

With the U.S.D.A.’s stamp of approval, the company’s processed beef has become a mainstay in America’s hamburgers. McDonald’s, Burger King and other fast-food giants use it as a component in ground beef, as do grocery chains. The federal school lunch program used an estimated 5.5 million pounds of the processed beef last year alone.

I find it interesting that its use in school lunch programs doesn't seem to bother anyone.

Indeed, it's used by BK, other fast food, grocery stores and school cafeterias. It's just easier to pick on McD. It's kind of like picking on Walmart. Easy target.

Anyway, McD's burgers weren't ever that good in my generation anyway. I still enjoy their chicken though now that they've improved it.

The McDonalds in my neighborhood is owned by the corporation and not a franchise, and it makes all the difference. Everything that I've had there is hot, fresh, and doesn't have the construction problems that you find in other stores. Everything looks like it does in the commercials.

And their supply comes from the same distributor.
