talk me out of a big mac for lunch today

[Anonymous]

I LOVE Big Mac. Go get it!

Think of the hundreds of ingredients going into the Big Mac.

It should be just like 4, plus a few for the sauce, plus 10 or less for the bun.

Think of how many different cows are in that burger. It's not just one single cow. And it's not even three. More.

Did that work?

This is what I consider. If I still must have a burger I go to BTS instead or WF. Those options are somewhat healthier. If I must get something from mcDonalds, I'll get pancackes or an egg mcmuffin. May not completely be healthy, but at least there's not 100 meat fillers and cows involved and I always feel full and satisfied.

I spent a summer at a teenager working at McD's. You couldn't pay me enough to eat a Big Mac.

Recently I happened to be at a McD's late in the evening, and got their egg mcmuffin, and it was gross, and I felt like crap afterward.

if, on the other hand, you feel fine after a Big Mac, then I guess just go ahead.

You'll regret it later when you're on the toilet trying to defacate the poison that ripped your gut to shreds. If you're lucky you won't have blood in your diarrhea

McDonald's uses 100%beef - there are no fillers.

So they say. Why does it not taste or look like a homemade burger?

Too late, I know, but eating beef causes 15% of all human caused greenhouse gases.

Skip that sucker and help slow climate change!

Because McDonalds doesn't put green peppers in their burgers!

I don't have an issue with the beef part of a big mac. It's the sauce, extra bun and toppings that are the problem, and to a lesser extent the fried-in-its-own-fat thing.

Just for giggles I looked up the nutrition information on McDonald's website.
Calories / grams of fat / grams of carbs / grams of protein:

Just the meat patty, lettuce and onions: 190 / 12 / 3 / 15 - not half bad for a fast-food lunch!
Add a bun: 400 / 15 / 42 / 22
Add cheese and big mac sauce: 540 / 28 / 46 / 25

So I know what I'll do next time I'm craving a big mac: order one without cheese, toss 2 of the 3 bun sections, scrape off half the sauce, and eat the rest as an open-faced sandwich. Reasonable lunch calories and it cures the craving.

Oh, and skip the fries. Medium fries has 340 calories and 16 grams of fat.

Sorry about your eating disorder.
