The claim that McDonald's uses human meat is a false and long-debunked hoax. Recent rumors originated from a satirical website, Huzlers.com, back in 2014. The site is known for creating fake news stories as pranks. There is no credible evidence to support the claim. https://apnews.com/article/archive-fact-checking-9233643423 https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2024/oct/02/instagram-posts/that-burger-is-safe-to-eat-human-remains-were-not/ https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/food-and-drink/news/those-human-meat-found-in-mcdonald-s-factory-stories-and-facebook-posts-are-a-hoax-obviously-9784592.html https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/12/30/fact-check-false-claim-mcdonalds-and-human-meat/9044539002/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/swap-meat/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1850494593055268993
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
