> Yup -- another business trick is in McDonalds -- the company that supplies the beef in Ireland is called "100% Irish Beef" and thus they put that on the packaging even if the beef doesn't come from Ireland. This isn't true, it's an urban myth. The original myth was actually that a company called "100% beef" was a company owned by McDonalds, and this is simply a variant. See: https://www.mcdonalds.com/gb/en-gb/help/faq/18916-is-beef-a-company-owned-by-mcdonalds-and-therefore-your-beef-products-are-not-actually-beef.html https://www.mcdonalds.com/gb/en-gb/help/faq/18916-is-beef-a-... McDonalds Sourcing Statement - "We work with over 23,000 British and Irish farmers to source our ingredients. Our beef, eggs and milk all come from UK farms." > I've seen this don't with the equivalent of "100% recyclable" as the name of the company to pass the product off as environmental. Can you give a source for a company using this? I can't find anything about it online and suspect it's just an urban myth like the first one.
