Regardless, I was very sick and don't even want to venture a guess as to what was in that Shamrock Shake, but it was bad enough to turn me off "fast food" of the drive-thru variety forever.
I feel you. I feel the same way about Taco Bell. Other people who ate it was fine but ever since that New Years Eve that I violently vomited while eating it...never again. Just the utter smell of it puts me off so I wouldn't even go in there to go the bathroom. I'd rather hold it.
Same thing with McDonald's. I had the runs one day from the nuggets and I can't go to the bathroom there either.

Every once in a while it's an ok go-to but mostly if I want a quick and easy I'm buying a sub from somewhere..
I can't take it either unless I lived in California (they have In N Out Burger for example). The taste of it has really changed. Pizza Hut used to be good but I think they changed their ingredients because I don't know how they call that food anymore.
I also notice everytime I eat Popeye's I get a headache. I don't know why. Even Arby's makes me feel ill enough to not tolerate it and I used to love their roast beef.
I'm definitely not a vegan by any means so my diet isn't that great but fast food is probably the worst thing you can eat. Some people can handle it though.
One problem is I have a close friend who LOVES going out to eat at fast food joints because it's cheap and he doesn't cook much. Literally, everyday, sometimes, twice a day he will go out to eat. Surprisingly, he isn't too overweight because of it. So every time I hang out with him, we usually go to a cheap fast food joint. We hang out maybe 2 or 3 times a week.
I think the fast food is making me sick though. I notice when I don't eat it for a few days, my stomach feels less bloated and my nose doesn't itch as much. And I also feel like I have more energy and more alert.
Then stop eating it, you know your body better than anyone here.
To begin with, I practically lived on junk food for years. I could eat McDonald's twice a day with no problem. It was a "fine food" in my opinion in my younger days.
In more recent years, I still might have a burger once a week. But I've grown to appreciate healthier foods, taste-wise.
Friday after work I stopped at the drive thru and picked up a Big Mac meal. It was okay but not amazing since I wasn't completely in the mood for it. After an hour or so my stomach felt a little upset. I decided to take a walk, after which I felt much better. Maybe I wasn't really in the MOOD for a burger, but I might have eaten it just because it had been a while and was probably lingering in the back of my mind. I have definitely enjoyed McD's lately whenever I've eaten there and been in the mood recently.
So, can a "less healthy" food than what you are used to actually cause a slightly upset stomach?
I cant eat fast food like I could years ago. I enjoy it every once in awhile but less and less as time goes on.. I don't know if it makes me sick but it does tend to sit inside like a rock and gives me a very heavy feeling..
My body just doesn't process the junk like it used to, MacDonald's seems to be the worse..

Yeh , I think all the salt catches up with me these days.
Occasionally I like it.
I rarely eat fast food any more...and yes, it does seem to make me feel sort of sick when I eat it.
