Had the Mighty Angus from the Munno Para branch. Thought they went a little light on the relish, but overall, delicious.

Lol. Good chance. Funny how Munno Para HJ's and Maccas have double lane drive throughs. Is this the case anywhere else?

I had many return trips to the Munno Para Macca's when they first started up, they were friggin hopeless, they have improved over time though. The lanes are wide so you can still overtake.

I had one a couple of weeks ago up your way SS at Renmark, as a pit-stop on the way to Mildura, and considering 30 hammered blokes lobbed up announced and all ordered large meals, they were unbelievably quick to get food out. Only one drive-thru lane, but a quality outlet. :)

At times, it can be. I find the thickshakes vary from time to time as well. Some are delicious and others taste like bathwater. I wonder where the best thickshake you can get comes from?

I reckon HJs thickshakes are a lot better than Maccas.

Had a Mighty Angus for lunch. Just about went into cardiac arrest but it was worth it. So damn fine.

Okay, how can we prove that this phenomonen is actually made with beef from Angus cattle?
We can't so don't kid yourself, it could be from a Murray Grey, Brahman, Friesan or any sort of cow so not sure how they can get away with this ploy. Once cattle are killed and hanging upside down in a slaughterhouse, they're like naked females.
Turn them upside down and they're all sisters.

We can't and it probably isn't, it would be minced in a different way and probably has less fat and preservatives in it. I've minced meat at home and the texture is far different to what you get from a shop, it is very similar to the texture of the mighty angus burger meat. I could be wrong but that's my theory.

Could this fit into the category of "false or misleading advertising" I wonder?

Haven't tried one so I'll take your word they're okay, but if you advertised something that wasn't quite as you said,and someone queried your details, I'm sure the authorities would/could ask you some questions.
Food for thought, don't you think?

With the amount of advertising. and promotion they're doing it would be a folly for McDonalds NOT to ensure the burgers are indeed from Certified Amgus stock. Here's a link for the "CAAB", who are the mob that certify that the burgers are what McDonalds claim they are...

For the record, they're fantastic !!
