    All I know is the Wendy's Bacon Mushroom Melt from about 10 years ago was the greatest fast food burger ever.  Back when they had the square patty and the mushrooms weren't sitting in the cheese sauce.  The one they came out with last year wasn't even close.

    I've never experienced the feeling of nausea or heard of anyone eating McDs and throwing up so once I saw that I knew it was a BS show. 

    Yea, maybe he over-ate and threw up like any other food but not because it was specifically McDs. 

    McDs gets such bad press just because they are one of the biggest or is the biggest/most popular fast food company.  McDs is far from the worst fast food company when it comes to nutrition.

    Some Americans are simply stupid when it comes to certain things like love building up companies and then they love destroying them.  I don't really see other countries doing that but Americans seem to love to sabotage their own.

    Haven't been in a McDonald's since that movie, and never will eat McD's, Wendy's or BK again in my life. People don't realize that all the cheap foods they put in their bodies will end up costing them much more in medical bills down the road.

    If you watched the movie it was after eating McD's and only McD's for several weeks his body started shutting down.

    That guy was eating like 4 times his daily intake of calories and not exercising. It's not like it was McDonalds fault for that.

     

    Taco Bell tacos can't be that bad. I had some the other day and survived.

    If you eat hot dogs and burgers and frozen foods at home there's not gonna be much of a difference.  It's not only McDs, it can also happen at home.  Which is called unhealthy eating.

    Taco Bell tacos can't be that bad. I had some the other day and survived.

    If the meat in the chicken burrito is actually solid chicken then that would be as good as any meal you can get elsewhere if you hold the sour cream, guac, and refrieds.

    I was at Chipotle- some guy ordered a salad- guac- yes, sour cream- yes.     Some people actually think eating a salad is healthy even when it's covered in guac and sour cream.  The salad had to be over 1000 calories even if the menu said otherwise.   .  The serving size looked double the menu calorie count size.

    False.

    He was not eating well over the normal average daily intake.

    While the calorie totals weren't disclosed, from what the movie shows, the whole point was to replace his regular meals with McDonald's meals (three square).

    If an above average calorie intake occurs, that should be expected for you, him and anyone else who eats there as a natural consequence of replacing a meal with a McDonald's meal. So the point of his body getting thrown into a flux, and what was really shutting down, is still legitimate.

    Anyone have a 'vomit head' emoticon.

    I could only imagine how long, where and through what means those mushrooms made it from the ground to your burger. It's probably a horror show of the highest order (and that doesn't even touch on the patty).

    From what I remember, I saw him eating like two combos in his car like he just stole it from someone and trying to destroy evidence by eating it. 

    I remember thinking to myself that this is ridiculous, he is eating more than one combo meal in a sitting.   That's easily 1500 plus calories a sitting.   That would be like 4000-5000 calories in a day if he ate like that for all 3 meals.  That's over a pound in calories he is eating in a day. 

    Looked like he was in a buffet marathon.  It was a ridiculous movie that was obviously made to prove their point at all costs.

    Scal, I make it a habit of not criticizing people about their eating habits, not cool.

    They want to eat well but don't know how and were not fortunate enough to grow up under strict eating guidlines. They just need a subtle push in the right direction.

    Do you know anyone that eats McDs everyday, every meal?

    What difference would that be if you eat at the same steak house, olive garden, red lobster, etc etc everyday, every meal?    Not much if you ask me.  If anything sit down restaurants are over-proportioned which means you are usually eating more fat and calories than at McDs.

    Search, it's not necessarily like that.   Most people can tell you how to eat right but they either have no discipline to do so or choose not to.

    People enjoy food.  People want to live a litte.

    Topped off with a 32-oz non-diet coke--no ice--for 99 cents, and a hot fudge sundae.  A great meal for $7.
