Salads are one of the better things you can get at mcdonalds but they still contain sugar (why do you need sugar in a salad?) and if you get a chicken salad the chicken they put in is pretty bad for you too. I won't even get started on the chicken nuggets... |

Yeah they contain sugar but you can find sugar in almost anything unless they are made with splenda or something. Personally, I'm not concerned about sugar as much as salt. Sugar may rott your teeth, but salt will harm your heart. I brush my teeth two to three times a day and have had no cavities and drink maybe one can of pop a day, cookies ever so often, or ice cream...so I think i'm (and other people) are okay with some sugar. Yeah I was surprised on the amount of sodium in their nuggets (1125mg I believe) and fat (25g)...but I maybe have them...two or three times a year so...I think i'm okay there too haha. |

i LOVE their chicken nuggets. once a year i used to indulge in a 20 pc. pack with sweet and sour and honey mustard sauces.
i haven't done this for a while tho... kinda still afraid after the whole DC experience. might've just been the restaurant and not the food in general, i eat pretty healthy so it shouldn't hurt me that bad in theory. |

| I don't think eating fast food occasionally is that bad. It's when you eat it alot that it becomes a problem. Fast food gets such a bad rap, but there are healthier alternatives, whether it's at McDonalds, or at Subway (which is probably the healthiest i'de say, even though i'm not a fan). Home cooking is good, but not everyone has the time to make something all of the time. I live at home with my rents still, so they do most of the cooking. I stick to TV Dinners, sandwiches, cafes or fast food. Probably the worst fast food is Burger King, Hardees (the worst), KFC and White Castle. But Steak & Shake is probably the worst..most unhealthy resturaunt you can go to. Ate their once...refuse to again. |

| Mc Dicks is only good for nuggets with SS sauce or BLT bagel, even that I only eat like 5 times a year. OMGIMGONNADIE:rolleyes: |

| Steak & Shake is the worst. I suppose you live in FL, as well. If you're in need for late-night food, seek a pizzeria, town diner, Denny's, or IHop. In dire emergencies, go to a convenience store and buy a huge snack. Over there, you'll know they have decent food that won't kill ya. |

I hear ya on that and congrats on the change! I was in the same boat. Fast food overall is bad, empty cals......
I just learned how to prepare fast and quick meals at the casa.
I can cook, but more of a quick meal. Bought a George Forman Grill and bought boneless chicken breasts at the store in bulk. Mmmmmm mmm good and with a salad of any type greens on the side.
Just watched the pounds slide off. Now when I smell Mcdonalds, my nose turns up. |

I'm a huge fan of their chips as well, not sure why, but everything else is pretty terrible. If I'm gonna eat fast food I usually grab KFC (their popcorn chicken is like an explosion of awsomeness in your mouth). |
