There's more than one reason to NOT eat there?

[GhostTX]

Not busted yet. Just a "claim".

Seasoned Ground Beef

The bolded part is the spices.

TBH, looks like what's in McCormiks taco seasoning that you'd make at home: Beef, water, spices.

"beef", it's what's for dinner...

Reading comprehension owns you. It should be:

35% beef, with binders, extenders, preservatives, additives and other agents, its what's for dinner.

I think that's why he put "Beef" in quotations so as to be sarcastic!

Irony
Main article: Scare quotes

Another common use of quotation marks is to indicate or call attention to ironic or apologetic words:

He shared his “wisdom” with me.
The lunch lady plopped a glob of “food” onto my tray.
The person used “intellect” to speak.

To avoid the potential for confusion between ironic quotes and direct quotations, some style guides specify single quotation marks for this usage, and double quotation marks for verbatim speech.[citation needed] Quotes indicating irony, or other special use, are sometimes called scare, sneer, shock, distance, or horror quotes. They are sometimes gestured in oral speech using air quotes.
