OK, here is what you do?.

Take your notebook and log every time you eat at Mcd?s Burgerfling any Fastfood joint?

Date what you had, and tape your receipt to the page, Make sure you get a receipt.

Then when they find you dead with McD?s crud lined in your arteries after you just passed away from a major heart attack, your friend/family can sue the crap out of em?

I swear they should pass out a couple of aspirin or at least ask you if you want aspirin with your super size? I use to eat at these places in my teen age and 20?s. But no longer can do it. It?s cheaper just to go out to safeway and buy some fruit? Taste better too.
 
I wish i could get fat.. i can eat 50 nuggest and wont gain weight 😉

50 nuggets + bbq ribs + stakes + beer = good super bowl party!

Do yourselves a favor and go to Wendy's instead. $8 will buy you 40 pieces of their nuggets and it tastes more like real chicken. Plus, their sauces are better!

That guy's a jerk. Fast food wasn't really ever meant to be eaten 3x a day. And furthermore, most college food is probably just as bad...pizza, burgers, wings. And lots of students eat that stuff all year long, so I guess we're all splotchy and 250 pounds with liver problems too huh? OK, we might have liver problems but that's from binge drinking =p Seriously, the reason why people probably don't get that sick at college either is because occasionally they probably have enough sense to eat a regular meal with enough veggies and stuff.

Why doesn't he go after the hot dog stands in New York City and see what happens after 1 month of eating only fried donuts in the morning from the donut carts and 3 hot dogs for lunch and 3 hot dogs for dinner? Idiot. I'd bet he'd deteriorate just as badly, if not worse.

I have a hunch that if this idiot had just not supersized everything, eaten a side salad along with dinner and lunch, and taken centrum daily, he'd probably have been fine. In fact, probably if he had just supersized, but drank lemonade for lunch, and diet coke for dinner in the supersizing, then substituted a salad for the fries(I think mcdonald's allows this now) he'd have been perfectly healthy. Or something close to healthy.

Maybe I should eat at Red Lobster twice a day and see what happens when you eat shrimp and lobster for a month. My cholesterol would probably go through the roof. But that proves nothing because only a moron would think eating 60 times a month at red lobster could be healthy.

If you eat fresh fish every day you will get much healthier (unless the fish is full of polutants). Fish is about the healthiest protein source available, so if you shelled out a ton of money at Red Lobster (or actually went to a GOOD seafood place, or cooked it yourself) for shrimp and lobster, and maybe salad, you would probably lose weight and feel better (there is even supposed to a natural antidepressant in fish protein).

It's not only the meat but also its preparation. Frying up a burger at mcdonalds is a whole lot different than putting a burger or steak on the bbq, or cooking up some chicken on a forman's grill (nice little grease trap takes away alot of bad stuff).

The point is that fast food lobbyists go on tv and say their stuff is nutritious, when it is obviously some of the unhealthiest dietary choices around.

That being said, if there is one day to be absolutely unhealthy, it's superbowl sunday... yyuuummm chicken mcnuggets, beer, and a grill outside, now that's superbowl living.
 
Sorry, but thats not hot.

Paying the same price for 10 less nuggets......... shame on you

It's not about blindly going after quantity... i'd rather have 40 higher-quality nuggets for the price of 50 crappier nuggets.

I don't know about Red Lobster, most of their stuff is deep fried. Even the stuff that is not is usually very oily. As for Shrimp and Lobster, the reason he used it in his example is because those meats have the highest amount of cholesterol of any meat. You may lose weight if you eat steamed shrimp with cocktail sauce all the time, but your cholesterol will still shoot up. You really have to eat your fish at nicer Portugese, Spanish or Italian restaurants or cook it yourself; and limit your consumption of shellfish.

Just as getting fake flowers from a gas station is better than an arrangement from a top notch florist is better, huh? 😉

I used to say that there were two types of Chicken McNuggets.

The boot shaped white meat ones...

And the odd shaped brain meat ones.

I didn't like the dark ones too much... ... ...

but I still ate them.
 
Just reading the reviews on Amazon about the book "Fast Food Nation" are enough to make you not want to eat "fast food" anymore......

Fast Food Nation

That said: It's Pizza, Beer, mozzarella sticks, and meatballs for us this Sunday! Hey, if the Patriots win the SuperBowl, it will be worth the extra fat, cholesterol, and rat feces that I'll be eating!

Yea, the old dark meat ones were sick.. I ate them but they were hard, filled with tendons and crap you can't bite through.. I like the white meat ones a lot better. They are a little more dry (but I don't like super moist chicken, that's why I hate dark meat)..
