There's a new website www.makeupyourownmind.co.uk which is an attempt by McD in the UK to become more transparent about its' operations.

Basically you can log onto it, ask any question about the company or procedures and they'll actually offer the answer.

Like many others I scoffed and referred to it as a PR stunt that would achieve Sweet FA, but looking at it, it just seems to be working and some of the questions that are being asked are frankly disturbing.

"Do you spit in your food" was one of the first questions asked.

"Did you used to fund the IRA?"

"Didn't you put mayo in the shakes once?"

The scariest part is that all these questions were serious!
