The employee said in the caption that his manager told him to do this to try and “save money”, but he actually thinks he’s “trying to kill somebody.”

Chunks of coagulated milk that look similar to cottage cheese are then squeezed out of a plastic bottle and into the machine.
It’s enough to put you off buying a thick shake ever again, and the comment section reflected this sentiment…
“Why did you do it anyway?” someone asked. “That’s more insane than the GM. The stupidity.”
Then, users who claimed to work at McDonald’s entered the chat with varying opinions.
“I’ve been working at McDonald’s for almost three years, and I didn’t know about this until my manager told me a while ago. They do this so they are not wasting the product and money,” wrote one alleged employee.
“We do that but NOT when they’re that bad, just like day of, then we clean them out the same night so it never goes bad, just nothing gets wasted,” said a second.
Another TikToker commented: “This can actually kill people! There’s a thing called dairy gas allergies, and the gas comes from expiring, which is also a dairy acid allergy, which comes from expired milk again.”
Someone then admitted that they worked at Subway, and their general manager once fished out expired food from the dumpster after a food inspector made them throw it out.
“I won’t eat McDonald’s ice cream anymore because when I worked at McDonald’s the machine only got cleaned once every three months, the GM would reset the timer that tells you to clean it.”
