Lord of The Curry Posted March 18, 2007 Report Posted March 18, 2007 I'll start us off. Back in the day I'd hear stories that the packaging company that McDonalds has contracted was called "100% Beef". Somebody also told me when I was a kid that for every Pop-Tart I ate I'd lose a day off my life.

foleyfanforever88 Posted March 18, 2007 Report Posted March 18, 2007 Swallow cum and it stays in you for a number of years.
Big Ol' Smitty Posted March 18, 2007 Report Posted March 18, 2007 McDonald's is the leading US buyer of cow eyes. They hold the burgers together. McDonald's shakes (the old, good ones) contain lots of wood pulp.
CanadianGuitarist Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Mountain Dew lowers your sperm count. The version I heard was that it shrunk your balls.
yankovic fan Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 My high school had the Mountain Dew urban legend about Surge. And the dumbshits thought it was true. I literally heard a girl recounting a story of unprotected sex. Me, being Mr. Paranoid that always wraps, says "Um, you aren't worried about getting knocked up?" and she says "oh no its ok, he drank a surge first." Mikey on the Life Ceral box died is always a fun story.

Dobbs 3K Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Wow, soda as a contraceptive. Kids really are idiots. What I've heard about Mountain Dew is that there is a dye in it that really can lower your sperm count, but you have to drink huge quantities of it to actually have an effect...like, more than a dozen cans a day for an extended period of time. Not sure if that's even true, but it makes more sense. My favorite urban legend is the one about Rod Stewart (or any famous British rock star) passing out backstage before a show, having his stomach pumped, and a quart of semen being removed. Either that or the "fun house" with all the trap doors and different levels that no one ever made it through, that was supposed to be in Chicago (or any other major US city).
Gary Floyd Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Cliche, but the whole pop rocks and coke thing. Also, I remember when I was a teenager, that several kids were convinced that cafeteria burgers come from horses, which is the stupidest urban legend I've ever heard in my life. Then again I did live in Southern Ohio...
alfdogg Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 I've read stories in the past about people, usually athletes, drinking two cans of energy soda and then keeling over and dying. Are these just isolated incidents?
Gary Floyd Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Don't know about that, but I've heard stories about energy drinks make people constipated.
vivalaultra Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Don't know about that, but I've heard stories about energy drinks make people constipated. I can say from first-hand experience that there's truth to that...or maybe I just have a fucked-up intestinal system.
Guest kresh Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 i heard a story, about a dude, he put his penis in a girl's ass, pulled it out and it had shit on it, so he puked on her back.... and she started rubbing it around cuz she thought he jizzed on her ©bash

Special K Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 I dunno about current energy drinks, but ephedra was all kinds of fucked up. Should have never been passed by the FDA. In terms of urban legends... OK, KFC and most chicken growers clip chickens' beaks right? I'll believe that. I have a Norwegian friend who believes that KFC has engineered chickens who have no beaks or feet. Just globs of meat sitting in a box. EDIT: I do wonder what happens to the rest of chickens processed for wings. Little tiny chicken breasts? Probably what goes into a McNugget.

I have a Norwegian friend who believes that KFC has engineered chickens who have no beaks or feet. Just globs of meat sitting in a box. I've seen videos with chickens that are used by KFC and their beaks and toes are clipped. They are also genetically modified to the point that they can't stand because of the weight of their breast meat. I don't think they are capable of growing feathers either, but that I'm not positive about.
Special K Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Really? If so to tell/show. Not that the cruelty would be unbelievable. foie gras anybody? Tastes great. "Genetically modified" is pretty much bull though, as far as I know. Domestic turkeys have tigglebiddies as opposed to their wild brethren. "Genetically modified?" No, they were bred to have big breast meat.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 I've seen videos with chickens that are used by KFC and their beaks and toes are clipped. The beaks gets clipped so not to peck other chickens, or something like that. Not too sure about the toes, but I'd believe it. They are also genetically modified to the point that they can't stand because of the weight of their breast meat. I don't think they are capable of growing feathers either, but that I'm not positive about. I read a while back about chickens in Israel that were featherless. Here's a quick Google from Harper's. Sadly, I was already beaten to the punch as to why these birds were naked. Israeli scientists unveiled their new genetically modified featherless chickens, which are supposed to be cheaper to kill, as they need not be plucked, though the naked birds have been unable to mate, because the males cannot flap their wings, and they are vulnerable to mosquito attacks and disease, and they fall down stunned if they happen to wander out into the sunlight.

Neither did the Rod Stewart thing; but that was funny. Take it to the CS, Kresh.
Dobbs 3K Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 I forgot I was posting in the Food folder To redeem myself, how about the one where the McDonald's ball pits in the play area are breeding grounds for rattle snakes that will bite your children and kill them with venomous poison?

Domestic turkeys have tigglebiddies as opposed to their wild brethren. "Genetically modified?" No, they were bred to have big breast meat. Yeah, this is pretty much true. 99% of the turkeys used in the US are this breed that is too fat and lazy to move or mate. They have to be artificially inseminated (Worst job in the world? I vote yes.) I learned this at a local foods conference I went to with my lady, who is a health nut.

Big Ol' Smitty Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 I pretty much dozed through the speeches. The food was kickass though. I had bison.
Guest Eagle Man Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 I wouldn't want to eat something infused with Psycho Power.

Not sure if that's even true, but it makes more sense. It's yellow 5, and it's in a shit load of other products too. But like you said, it's not gonna do anything to you unless you're just cramming your body with yellow-5. And even then I don't know that it's actually harmful.
