It's not the reason I don't eat McDonald's food. The reason is that they always put onions in my cheeseburgers. I think I have one more reason to avoid the food.

It's not that we should be getting rid of fast food, it's that we should be regulating what goes in it. Like any other restaurant.


So, is this the new fad? Anti-preservatives?

I don't know if the fad is necessarily new, people have been saying it for a while now.

But really, I wouldn't say I'm "anti-preservatives" entirely, preservatives have their place and use, but when they're scaring off the mold, as the video says, it might be a problem.

There was a test that proved various home-grilled burgers would have the same exact effect, depending on volume. Sorry, anti fast-food crusaders, it's about volume/size, not about what the evul McDonalds puts in their food.

I'll try to find a source-link later.

McDonald's gets all the hate.

Because they have success.

They are like the Miami Heat or New York Yankees or New England Patriots of affordable food.

They prominently post nutrition facts (others hide them). They have many healthful options. Mrs. Kroc generously endowed National Public Radio which uses the money to gleefully vilify her.

Go pick on some serious bad guys, like Burger King or KFC.

I stopped eating fast food several years ago.

The hints your body gives you about the consumption of fast food when you're trying to go to the bathroom... I listen to them.

Not from McDonald's at any rate. It's not like you can't get salad, or parfait from say... EVERYWHERE ELSE! :p

A few years ago when I was in Biology, I put a McDonald's on top of a counter and let it age for a few months. So when the 3 months were done I examined the burger and nothing had happened to the burger. When my little brother got home from school I showed it to him and he proceeded to eat the burger and said it tasted fine,but was a little hard. It was probably one of the most disgusting things I've seen in my life.

I can't remember the last time I went to a McDonald's. I bet that burger will be like that in another 15 years.
