They use them for Vermiculture. It's too expensive to add them as a filler to their beef patties.

"An Australian environmental technology company has recently introduced large-scale vermiculture to Hong Kong.The technology allows the worms to consume and convert organic materials into environmentally friendly fertilizers.McDonald's is one of the businesses that has signed up for the new scheme.As part of its waste recycling program, some of its restaurants will now separate organic waste before sending it to the plant to be eaten by worms."

In nature worms have been consuming waste and recycling for millions of years, it's just we have never seen them," said David Ellery of Sunburst Biotechnologies. "What we have done is taken that natural process and engineered it into 21st century size and efficiency to deal with a much larger problem in a more concentrated manner."
