Have you every seen the documentary about Mcdonalds called Super Size Me? the movie made me disgusted with the restaraunt. It showed me how unhealthy fast food is. The guy on the movie ate nothing but mcdonalds for like a month and it changed his life. Of course he put on way too much weight, but he depended on the fast food so much, even becoming addicted! it was like a drug to him, and he was depressed until every meal, than felt sick afterwards. People are suffering from this addiction all over the world, especially in the states but of course not from this one restaraunt.

I saw it. I think a lot of it has to do with personal choice you can't blame the fast food restaurants. No one if forcing you to eat big macs 24/7 that's your choice. I believe everything in moderation. But I do have a kind of a funny story about being addicted to fast food.
A few years ago I lived overseas and a McDonalds was right down the street. Often times I didn't feel like cooking and since it was cheap and very convenient even though there were tons of other places to eat also in waling distance and just as cheap. I would just walk down to MC'ds. For a good while I was there several times a week. I jokingly told my friends that they had to have put something in that food because I swear I was becoming addicted to it.

Haha thanks for proving my point with your story, but yes it does have to do with personal choice. sadly too many people make a poor choice when it comes to eating, hence becoming addicted.

I have always known that this food is not the best food to eat. I do eat real food at homea and do not have a problem with the food that is designed to be addictive when I do go out. I have often wondered how people could eat that stuff with a clear mind.
Best to eat food that is real, the fewer the sauces and salt the better. Good luck eating in the future.

yea i do eat fast food but only occasionally, i have heard way too many times about bad stuff happening when eating such food. Toe nails, bandaids, and rubber bands under the bun, cocroaches from taco bell, all that nasty stuff. Eating in your own home is a lot more safe and healthier.

It's not healthy for us to eat them often.
They are rubbish food. I will not eat them untill in the case of saving time.
