Lunch today; What was I thinking.
I was in a hurry to get to work today so I drove through McD's for lunch. I got 2 double cheese burgers and a large fri (We have pop for free at work). It was less than $4 and I was feeling pretty good about my choices.
When I'm finishing up, I notice that the fri box has the nutritional information on it.  hmmm, those fri's have a lot of fat... So I start adding things up: Calories: 1960 Cals from Fat: 696 RDA % fat: 117% RDA % sodium: 119% Thant was just my lunch. And I'm not even full... Just thought I'd share...

I rarely go to McD's. I stopped getting fries years ago just because they are so greasy (but yummy). When I go I get a doublequarter pounder with cheese.

The movie Supersize Me was quite informative.

Don't feel too bad, I just eat 12 Rheas Hot Links. The fat content per link is about 90% - each link weighs about 1/4lb. The upside, thats the fat that will 'flow' right through ya!
I should remain regular for another week or so...

Ditto What Trekkor said. Rent "Supersize Me", and then be sure to watch the extras. You'll think twice before you ever eat another Micky D's fry.

Hey! That's one of our clients you're bustin' on! Lay off man! They're just. . . filling a need. You know? Like mortgage lenders pushing subprime. It's not their fault!

I eat a Big Mac about 4 times a year. Thats about enough to satisfy the need yet retain most of my "girlish figure" so to speak...
Other than that its In n Out, Burger King or best of all a home made burger on the BBQ out back!

What the heck, we are all going to die. A fat McDonald meal once in a while won´t matter. The trick is to keep the total yearly amount of calories at a reasonable level.
