Mcdonalds has real beef. However, they add flavoring to it and then have to process the hell out of it. So, yes, technically it still is beef, i doubt you can buy it anywhere.

This is a half-serious reply:

Go to a butcher's and ask for the lowest grade of beef possible.

Question, when a meat product is being "processed" at what point does it stop being meat and start being something else? For instance you can take ground beef and set it aside for a while and in no time it will compost back into a dirt like product. Is that still meat? If you take the dirt-like psuedo-meat and use it to grow corn, could the corn be said to have been beef-fed? Then you can take the corn that used to be meat and feed it to various animals and get meat products from them agian. I just had a Disney's "The Lion King" Circle of Life® moment!

But seriously, at what point does processed meat stop being meat and start being "that which was formerly meat"?

As soon as it's being digested by and/or hosting another life form?

But living things are really just microcosms of other living things. Right now there are billions of organisms digesting and breaking down our tissues, and living off of our nutrients. We are being consumed. As long as we are healthy our bodies are capable of maintaining the equilibrium. As soon as a burger comes out of the oven it starts to break down. There's really not a time in a meat animal's life when it's not being digested by another creature.

If you boil a meat apart and make a meat slurry is it still meat? If you freeze meat in liquid nitrogen and crush into power and then let it thaw again is it still meat? I wonder...

Ask a McDonalds manager to order you some. I worked there at age 16, for two weeks, and the boxes said %100 beef.

<< Perhaps you're not receiving the response you'd like because the topic is so ludicrous? You want to simulate McDonald's. Think about it.
