Talk:McDonald's urban legends

Kangaroo meat?
That urban legend has been around since at least the 80s and has morphed. [https://www.rd.com/list/mcdonalds-rumors/#:~:text=The%20McRib%20is%20made%20with%20kangaroo%20meat&text=That%20fact%20has%20led%20people,it%20is%20in%20fact%20pork. Reader's Digest makes mention], along with many others. Include?
 * I can't find any mention of this besides the RD so it might be WP:UNDUE. Sjö (talk) 20:54, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Are McDonald’s meat really from humans?
Because when I looked it on YouTube and I watched this video, it said that they saw McDonald’s factory human body in there and they take their meat and make it as McDonald’s hamburger so my question is is McDonald’s meat really from humans because if it is I’m going to stop eating McDonald’s. I just really don’t know. 2600:8803:BC03:9800:8986:EA06:430D:9E06 (talk) 02:17, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
 * No, but the rumor seems to have been mentioned by reliable sources, so maybe it should be included in this article, see:

Never rots
I have seen mentions that McD burgers never rot, which is often explained by it being "chemical" or high in preservatives. The truth is that it dries out before it can start to rot or mould.
