I know McDonalds is basically restructured cow vomit, but I really didn't expect these results.

Edit: New link since Yahoo decided to remove the article. http://www.nypost.com/entertainment/16393.htm

That's exactly what I would expect. I eat fast food as infrequently as possible, and when I have to, its never McDonalds. I'll go to ChickFila or something where I can identify the food I'm ingesting.

 

[SculptedCold]

That's one reason I only get fast food on the run once every month or so.

 

[Hitori]

i dont want to click on that, i like mcdonalds

 

[bobvex]

me too

 

[spaffe]

i always found mcD's bugers really disgusting but i never expected this

 

[Caelestia]

I ate way too much McDonald's while travelling on a tight budget. I had to stop because I was well on my way to becoming a fatty

 

[Melancholia]

uke: I'm glad i don't eat McDonalds... except for that evil vegeterian burger they have once every two months...

 

[bobvex]

Caelestia, is that cat sticking his toungue out at me. vbmenu_register("postmenu_2593146", true);

 

[Caelestia]

yep, bob, it does that all the time

 

[stormy]

ehh yeah its a good thing i dont eat in fast food that much any more..

He should do the same thing for Burger King, to compare the results. I'll take Burger King over McmediocreDonald's any day.

 

[Sonnenritter]

I was thinking about that the other day.. if he had five or so people in good physical condition to try different fast food chains in the same fashion that he took on McDonalds. It would make for an interesting sequel-type documentary to this.

And they should do Taco Bell too. Thats my favorite fast food. I had Taco Bell today actually.

 

[Wandrail]

If he did that those fast food chains would go nuts trying to sue him - for what I don't know, that's what crooked trial lawyers are for, but the actual results of that study would be bound to damn some of those chains. Actually, people probably wouldn't care - people drink in excess and smoke and do drugs and everyone knows its all harmful. I sometimes eat burger king because its right next door, and i've gotta say that it can't be good for you, the meat is just nothing like what healthy beef should be, its probably loaded with soy and made from god knows what parts of a cow. Chick Fil A is acceptable to me.

 

[[0hr]Sunlapse]

to be honest, ive heard all the horror stories and everything, but i don't care.... it all just tastes too damn good. whats wrong with some "meat" every once in a while?

 

[Wandrail]

Heheh. Waste not want not, I suppose.

 

[Incendiare]

Eh, it isn't news to me. You know it's trouble when something becomes very popular, McDonald's being the perfect example. Pop music, as well.

 

[Wandrail]

Funny thing is, when chain restaurants started popping up everywhere, people started eating out alot more, and there was alot of cultural fear about eating so much food prepared by strangers, or not by a family member. Turns out those fears were probably pretty well founded, though the kid flipping th eburger is probably not the culprit.

 

[xenophobe]

The only fast food I'll eat is In-n-Out Burger... They prepare their foods in your view, always wash their hands and put on fresh plastic gloves every time they move away from their "station"... they use 100% ground beef, and I order it without the bun... it comes wrapped in lettuice instead. Still, I try to avoid this whenever possible.

Well, I do eat Taco Bell ocassionally.. but I generally stay away from McDonalds, Burger King, Carls Jr, etc...
