Faux Noise Breaking News -- Domestic Terra at McDonalds
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,296155,00.html

:sarcasm:

Apparently, in a bid to sneak chemical warfare into our society, a McDonalds in Union City, GA has decided to break ranks and shun the decades old tradition of frozen burger patties in lieu of hand mixing the raw meat and forming it into patties.

Extra salt slipped into the bowl, leading a sodium-sensitive police officer to uncover the plot and arrest the employee responsible.

Beware of hand-pattied McDonald's franchises.

:sarcasm:

(First of all, WHY is this news? Secondly, does anyone believe for a minute that McDonalds is hand mixing hamburger meat in a bowl and then patting it into individual patties?)

1. Sounds like the cop has bigger issues than salt intolerance
But at least FAUX headline makes it sound as ridiculous as it truly is:

"McDonald's Worker Arrested for Serving Cop Salty Hamburger"

I'll credit them for that, when they could have said: "Domestic Terror Plot Revealed! Too Much Salt in Burger Weakens Officers Crime-Fighting Abilities"

6. how much salt would this guy have to eat to get sick and
taken to a hospital? I mean, you'd almost have to eat spoonfuls of sodium iodide to get that kind of reaction. Guess that's why we're fighting em over there.
