Default What's in fast food burgers?

Seems every time I ate a burger there I get heartburn. However when I
eat an expensive restaurant burger I don't seem to have any problem.

atmosphere? You eat slower when at a restaurant rather than a fast food
place?

Good point, there's that. There's also the obligatory French fries
and soda pop that generally accompany fast food burgers. At better
restaurants, the fries are usually steak cut, so less grease, and the
burgers are made from less fatty ground beef. High fat content,
combined with large meal size can promote gastric reflux.
Also, at an "expensive restaurant," the burgers do not come pre-
dressed with ketchup, mustard, pickles and onions, all of which can
cause heartburn, and which might not be added by the customer if (s)he
had the choice.

A lot of acid reflux and heartburn, especially, comes from fat
content. The supermarket burgers probably are from fattier cuts of
meat.

All preground meat contains mystery meat... fast food mystery meat is
simply of the Hitchcockian genre.
