good point!!

this would make a good commercial, have Ronald McDonald passing out big macs to the homeless

"the most nutritious meal of the day"


and according to another thread, it will last up to a year!!

I'd rather go to In N Out or Wendy's for their burgers. But I don't eat beef anymore, only chicken or salmon xD

It doesn't really make much difference if it is 100% beef or a combination of beef and soy products, of course they are not good for you, the grease, fat and calories alone. Does this mean, no one should ever have one? I don't think so, most of us ingest things that are not good for us, but a once a month or once a week burger no matter where you get them isn't going to kill any of us. So eat your burger, I just won't eat mine from McDonalds, I settle for Burger King or In&Out when we are someplace where they have them: Which, btw we will be next Sat. as we head for our week in Sin City.

it's fast food

eat it or not eat it (choice, everthing in moderation)

i rarely eat fast food, but i do get a craving every once in a while for some greasy delicious mcdonalds, jack in the box, popeyes, etc

hell i had some random craving for some churchs chicken and honey butter buscuits the other day, i gobbled down those grease sponges and loved every minute of it

its good eating, if someone is worried about calories and whatnot then go eat some tofu and rice cakes

Read this about just ONE Double Quarter Pounder - Nutrition Facts and Analysis for McDonald's sandwich: Double Quarter Pounder&#174 with cheese

Calories - 760
Calories from fat - 432
Sodium - 1450mg
Fat - 48 grams
Cholesterol - 165 mg

So do you REALLY think this is good for you? Really?!?!?!

Do you also consider marijuana and tobacco healthy because after all, they are technically vegetables and from the earth.

Please don't use calories as a way to judge if something is healthy or not. Calories are necessary for everyone, and many people don't get enough of them. It is only in America that obesity is an epidemic as people can lack the willpower to stop shoving food in their facehole.

oh my, Church's chicken: I have only had it a couple of times, years ago, but it was so good. When we can't satisfy our longing for a good greasy meal we stop by Popeye's. Like you, we don't eat honest fast food more than once a month if that often.

I am not quite sure you are 100% right about only in America: I have visited Mexico many times and there is not shortage of overweight people there, including very young children. Many of the overweight people in American happen to be Hispanic as well. I also will add, it isn't just the food we eat, it is the lack of activity. We are probably the only country where almost every home has 2 or more cars and only a handful of major cities have good public transportation. So, we can't blame obesity on food only, though it is a part of the problem.

The bread they use for the burgers actually contains rubber that can be found in shoes, that goes same for another popular sandwich that claimed "eat fresh"! Sounds terrible, though I still eat Mcdonalds but try to avoid eating the bread now.
