For those who wonder what the big deal is about mcdonalds watch Super Size Me.

living on nothing but McDonald's for an entire month with three simple rules:

1) No options: he could only eat what was available over the counter (water included!)
2) No supersizing unless offered
3) No excuses: he had to eat every item on the menu at least once

facts
Each day, 1 in 4 Americans visits a fast food restaurant

In 1972, we spent 3 billion a year on fast food - today we spend more than 110 billion

McDonald's feeds more than 46 million people a day - more than the entire population of Spain

French fries are the most eaten vegetable in America

You would have to walk for seven hours straight to burn off a Super Sized Coke, fry and Big Mac

In the U.S., we eat more than 1,000,000 animals an hour

60 % of all Americans are either overweight or obese

One in every three children born in the year 2000 will develop diabetes in their lifetime

Left unabated, obesity will surpass smoking as the leading cause of preventable death in America

Obesity has been linked to: Hypertension, Coronary Heart Disease, Adult Onset Diabetes, Stroke, Gall Bladder Disease, Osteoarthritis, Sleep Apnea, Respiratory Problems, Endometrial, Breast, Prostate and Colon Cancers, Dyslipidemia, steatohepatitis, insulin resistance, breathlessness, Asthma, Hyperuricaemia, reproductive hormone abnormalities, polycystic ovarian syndrome, impaired fertility and lower back pain

The average child sees 10,000 TV advertisements per year

Only seven items on McDonald's entire menu contain no sugar

Willard Scott was the first Ronald McDonald - he was fired for being too fat

McDonald's distributes more toys per year than Toys-R-Us

Diabetes will cut 17-27 years off your life

McDonald's: "Any processing our foods undergo make them more dangerous than unprocessed foods"

The World Health Organization has declared obesity a global epidemic

Eating fast food may be dangerous to your health

McDonald's calls people who eat a lot of their food "Heavy Users"

McDonald's operates more than 30,000 restaurants in more then 100 countries on 6 continents

Before most children can speak they can recognize McDonald's

Surgeon General David Satcher: "Fast food is a major contributor to the obesity epidemic"

Most nutritionists recommend not eating fast food more than once a month

40% of American meals are eaten outside the home

McDonald's represents 43% of total U.S. fast food market


as you can see, its a much bigger problem than some may think.

that was a great movie. i dont know what that guy was thinking when he did that though. he went from being vegetarian to eating nothing but junky fast food. if you payed attention to the health checkups that he had. he went from having perfect health to being at risk of dying because of the effects of the food he ate had on his body.

although it is true that mcdonalds shouldnt and usually isnt part of a daily eating routine, the effects that even a little bit of it has on your body in the long run are enough to stop me from eating it.

The point was obesity and problems associated with it are killing us. Mcdonalds is the #1 producer in this epidemic. Its like glorifying heroin use, ignoring the dangers of it, and then allowing them to spend multi millions of dollars on advertising how great it is. Most high schools now have mcdonalds in them and so do walmarts, kmarts and every mall or shopping center in america. To those who take time to notice these things its like a drug dealer on every corner.

Scary sh*t. Nicely done.

I think its pointless how Mcdonalds are trying to save themselves by putting salad on the menu, barely anyone goes into a fast-food restaurant thinking about their health. I dont even think Mcdonalds taste that good... Its just meat and grease. No thank yoh..
