The other day I bought a package of Chocolate Chip Cookies at the local
McDonald's outlet (don't ask me why - I plead temporary insanity), and
I started reading the list of ingredients so thoughtfully provided on the
box to provide distraction from the food.

My question is this:  why is beef listed as one of the main ingredients
of their COOKIES?  What then are they putting in their burgers?  Cookie
dough?  How widespread is this culinary confusion?  Can't you just see it now:

  Someone walks into a McDonald's and yells "Where's the BEEF?!".

  ... and gets buried under a pile of cookies.

Seriously though, I think it's just a typo that they list "beef, fat" instead
of "beef fat" but I always did wonder why their cookies tasted funny.
If anyone outside of the Toronto area can report more evidence of this plot,
please mail me (I'll post another article if there is non-trivial response).
