When was the last time you ate at Mcdonalds? Mine's around 3 years.

10 I think. Only Fast Food I eat at unforced is Subway or Quiznos. If I do have to eat at a Burger type place, it's Wendy's.

Although I'll eat at In and Out Burger any TIME OF DAY.

I hate McDonalds.
I've always known how unhealthy it was, and never ate there frequently. It's usually about... once every three months that I eat their food, but it isn't me that buys it. Sometimes, I have almost no choice when travelling with a group.

Anyway, I avoid fast food as much as I can. I go to Subway occasionally for their meatball subs, but not often. Usually, if I want to get something to eat, I order it from actual restaurants.

Also, for the people that eat at McDonalds regularly, watch "Super Size Me". While McDonalds has gotten rid of their Super Sized meals, the message is the same. It's poison to your body.

EDIT: I forgot to mention a new McDonalds commercial I saw. They are trying to make their food seem healthy. It showed a kid enjoying McNuggets, drinking milk, and eating apple sauce. Sure, the milk and the apple sauce might be healthy (although some research debates the healthiness of dairy consumption), but, even if they're made with "100% White Meat", McNuggets are DEFINITELY NOT healthy. However, McDonalds tries to make it look like the child is eating healthily, because it's supposed to be chicken, and, while chicken is good, McNuggets are still ~25% breading and other crap. I also contest the quality of the meat used.

Seriously, seeing commercials like that aggravates me. Same with their salads. LOOK AT THE NUTRITION INFORMATON ON THE SALAD DRESSING. It's NOT healthy. Next time someone you know goes to eat at McDonalds, educate them. Please. :O

Going to MCDONALDS for HEALTHY FOOD, is like going to a CRACK DEALER for VITAMINS. It just doesn't work.

I havent eaten in McD in the US, so it's gotta be at least 5 years.

I did get into an actual McDonalds once.
I was meeting a friend and I parked in McD parking lot - got in, got a $2 shake. My friend came along, she didn't buy the shake, and got a $50 parking ticket.

I threw the shake in the trash... but my point is, the whole feel of McD here was just.. so negative and disgusting. The place was dirty and greasy, and I didn't wanna be there - and I don't think it had much to do with the bad publicity McD has been receiving..

I'd suggest against it. I traveled to a conference in Michigan a few weeks ago, and we stopped at McDonalds for breakfast. I myself just took a coffee, but apparently some kid vomitted as a conjunction of too much food and then looking at the nutrition facts/ingredients afterwards. I'd either just not eat McDonald's or stay ignorant.

I wonder who McDonald actually was, and if he wanted it to have to come to this with his fast food chain?

It has probably been a few months since I last had McDonalds. The last few times that I actually ate some I got sick and threw most of it up. My favorite burger place currently is Best Burger. Their food is a little more expensive (around $6-$8 for a good sized meal) but the quality is a lot better.

I couldn't eat chicken at McD. Especially after they started their "our chicken is now 100% chicken" campaign ;)
