Poll: Do you eat McDonalds?

[floppylobster]

A few years ago a lot of McDonalds food issues were exposed through the documentary Supersize Me. After that McDonalds took a huge hit in business, but since then they've slowly recovered. So. do you still eat it?

As for me, I stopped eating it maybe 8 eight years ago but if I'm in a foreign country I will occasionally still eat fries or an apple pie because I know what I'm getting. (I swore off their 'meat' for life).

 

[Tiger Sora]

almost been 3 years since I've been there. Been tempted to go back, but I know I'll just get sick again. My resolve must stand firm that I shall never eat there again.

 

[strum4h]

Yes because it is convenient. Plus you say that you 'know what you are getting' and that you swore off their 'meat' for life. Super Size Me showed that the fries are the most chock full of the worst preservatives and junk. Think about that next time you are chomping those down.

 

[Queen Michael]

I don't eat their food because of environmental issues, health issues and taste issues.

 

[SmilingWorlock]

Only when I travel, because along ther german highways everything else is expensive. I mean REALLY expensive. McDonalds isn't cheap either, and you get either sick or hungry again after like half an hour. But 10$ per serving of fries on the other places, it's still "worth" it.

Edit: I have never seen SuperSize Me. Just SuperSize Me WITH WISHKEY.

Not for years, no. I'd rather go to a restaurant if I'm that hungry and lazy to cook. It's not because of the food quality (never saw Super size Me) but I just don't really like the taste that much and some stuff makes me ill. I like and sometimes buy their milkshakes though.

 

[Mr Thin]

Yes, because it's absolutely fantastic and I love it.

All I got from Super Size Me is that if you eat loads of calories and don't exercise, you'll get fat. Truly ground-breaking stuff, right there.

 

[DefunctTheory]

Chicken Nuggets are far too tasty to deny based on such a petty thing like 'health.'

As for Super Size Me... that documentary is so ridiculously contested that it's results are next to useless.

 

[Zeriah]

No never, to me it just tastes bad (always has). If I am forced to eat fast food it will usually be Kebabs, Indian food, pizza or KFC

I've been to McDonalds a few times, but I still don't know what a "supersize" is! D:

Do they just double your portions or give you bigger burgers or something?

Anyways, yeah, I go there on occasion. The food there tastes pretty good, and I'm sure the handful of McDonalds burgers I eat in a year is inconsequential compared to my regular diet choices.

 

[orangeapples]

Not regularly, but sometimes I just feel like being lazy XP

When I do go it tends to be for breakfast, but I've recently found out I'm not bad at cooking breakfast. When my friends go, sure I'll go. We never really crave McDonald's, but it is more of a case that we know it is there.

 

[andreas3K]

Cheeseburgers are fucking delicious. OMNOMNOM. But I have plenty of food at home and the nearest McDonalds is pretty far, so I can't be bothered.

 

[Kolby Jack]

Usually only when i go through an Airport. I like their food, but I prefer other chains to them (Whataburger, In n' Out, Taco Bell, and Jack in the Box are my top 4). And I get pretty sick of people talking about how bad the food is at [insert food chain here]. Yea, it's bad for you, that's why you don't eat it every day! Make a sandwich or something; nobody is forcing you to eat the stuff.

EDIT: Also, Supersize Me is such a stupid movie. Yea, I suppose if I were eating a healthy vegetarian diet for years and then ate absolutely nothing but McDonald's food for a month I'd get pretty fucking sick too. In science, that's called "contaminating the results." Not that it was a proper experiment anyway, what with only one already "contaminated" specimen who couldn't even stomach his first quarter-pounder. Nothing pisses me off more than poor science.

 

[Tdc2182]

Well, I actually enjoy there food. So yes, I still eat McDonalds.

Also, I'm not a complete idiot who can actually control my eating habits. That's a pretty big bonus when it comes too fast food.

Seriously, "Unhealthy" people ruined my favorite breakfast cereal of all

I don't care if my shit was midnight black. That cereal was amazing.

Fuck them if they try to take away my Micky D's

 

[BanicRhys]

I generally have fast food once a week, I only have McDonalds when there isn't a Hungry Jacks nearby, because as you know, the burgers are better at Hungry Jacks.

 

[katsumoto03]

I eat the fries maybe once or twice a month. Nothing else.

 

[deserteagleeye]

Been 2 years since I had any McDonalds. Why would I bother if I live next to a Burger King and a Little Caesars? That stuff is fucking delicious.
