Do you think McDonald's is really healthy?

You need to get the movie "Super Size Me." In this movie this guy eats nothing but McDonald's food for 30 days. I think this movie is what has changed McDonald's ways, but don't be fooled. They are still doing stuff to the food.

I'm glad they're making the effort. I don't want to discourage fast-food places from trying, because, if they could eventually start serving genuinely healthy food, I'd appreciate the convenience. Right now I have to pack snacks and meals for me and my kids every time I go out somewhere. It doesn't bother me that much, but it's time consuming, and some days it would be great to just leave the house and not have to worry about keeping the food cold until we need it. My husband likes to stop at McDs, if we're on a long road trip, and I'm glad that there's at least something I can eat there now. I think the salad dressing is ridiculously unhealthy though, so eat my salads without it.

I cant eat there at all. I read an article one time that said that they bought more cow eye balls than any other company.. Now were are they going? Just the thought of it is enough to turn my stomach.

no i dont think so

Are you kidding? Almost every food they sell has sugar or corn syrup in it. Someone even proved they put sugar in their salads at one point. Salads! Of course it all depends on how you define healthy. Some people think that as long as something is low fat it is healthy. Some think that low carb is healthy. And, I am sure McDonalds is healthier than some other fast foods out there, so it is all relative.

All I have to say about this is: How many McDonald's Bucks do you need until you can get a free angioplasty??

No way ! It's so high in fat and salt, even their LOW fat options are over 105 which is still too much........low fat is MAX 5% and under!!

well, lets see the result of studies of those who conducted to check it out.

I am not sure but it is tasty

I think it is better then it was, but healthy? Not too much.

i think they are better then some.

I don't think they're healthy overall, but they have added a few healthy items to the menu.

Wouldn't call it healthy, but it's OK as long as you don't eat it too often (same with pizza, ice cream, etc.). It's good McD's has healthier options, for those times when they're the only eating option nearby. You can get a salad or yogurt parfait and it's OK. I don't think they'll ever change from burgers and fries, that's what they're known for and people will always want those, no matter how unhealthy they are.

Its fast food... What fast food place is healthy... I think it will always be unhealthy.

I dont think it is very healthy but everyone still likes to eat there. I know I do

Some of McDonalds food is good in a pinch, but to eat it every day would probably be detrimental to your overall health, unless you just drink their orange juice and have a plain salad with no dressing.

haha, all their food is disgusting. even the salads and yogurt, is unhealthy.

no i think ...

Of course not. How can fastfood ever be healthy? Maybe just Subway.

i dont believe that mcdonalds will ever be healthy food. BUT, I do not think that most any fast food and most sit down restaurants are all that healthy either. The dirty little secret of restaurants is that even when they serve low fat or low card or low anything food they still have high levels of sodium in order to maintain the good taste of the food. Of course if you think that you are getting something good off of the "healthy" choices part of the menu you may not be worried about that but if you have high blood pressure that is a major concern. It will always be better to just prepare your own food at home from scratch. I just wish we all had the time and energy at the end of the day to do so and only ate out as a rare treat rather than a substitute for cooking
