@KinOfCain: You're... Brilliant! I'll save thousands on cages if I just chop--- I mean... If the legs of all my calves were to disappear as if... By accident.
Shame that cheese looks like that yellow plastic Americans call cheese. A good burger deserves cheddar at the very minimum. Something like that cries out for stilton though.
@coyote1284: P.E.T.U.: Yep, the McD's coffee story always takes the heat as a frivolous, silly law suit but once you get into the facts it actually made sense.
McDs used to keep their coffee much higher. Their argument was that people in the drive thru wanted the coffee hot when they got where they were going (really?). The woman didn't just spill coffee on herself and go "shit thats hot" she suffered 3rd degree burns which required skin grafts.
@#c15021278: I agree. The stigma that came along with this lawsuit is really silly, and I'm glad more people are becoming aware of the facts rather than parroting what they heard.
Here's the good news. Our bodies break the stuff that we eat down into it's constituent parts, the body does not know or care if the dead cow parts that you put in your body came from McDonalds or if it is grade beef tenderloin. As long as the nutrients are there, and you burn as many calories as you eat, you'll be fine.
after having worked at Macca's in my teenage years, I'm always happy to eat there. People bitch and moan, but the ingredients are always fresh and you always know what you're getting. it's perfectly possible to eat healthy there. McChickens especially are yummmmmmmm & reasonably healthy at the same time.
Of course, I'm in Australia. It would not surprise me if U.S. Maccas was unhealthier. Most things are :P
@freakout: I had an opportunity to visit Brisbane years ago, and I can confirm that the McDs in Oz do serve a much better version of food. Likewise, Domino's Pizza was actually edible. I guess they are afraid to serve bad food to ex-cons ;-)
@freakout: Actually the Chicken sandwhiches at McD's are one of the worst things on the menu. It's mainly the mayo they put on the thing. If you get the chicken + Fries + drinks your sitting either really close to 1000 or over a 1000 calories...but don't get me wrong I'm still going to eat there =P
Here is a list of what they have and the calories behind it.
@dimsum4u: the Aussie McChicken provides 41% of your daily protein needs, 31% of the sodium and only 13% of the saturated fat (27% total). Really, it's fairly well balanced if you have that and an orange juice or something for lunch.
you're right, though, the fries will totally ruin any attempt at being healthy. pdf link: [mcdonalds.com.au]

But if I ever eat at McDonalds I would just ask for the Angus Deluxe with no cheese, nor fries, nor drink, and maybe an iced mocha.

Yeah, I don't know about your Big Macs, but ours come with a side of lard.
Sweet, delicious, all American lard.
