I still eat there every now and then but not anything like I used to. I was working as a temp in Macy's a couple of years back and they have a McDonalds in the store so I would get lunch there sometimes, especially with the employee discount. I started to notice that once I was done eating it, my body would feel like it was spinning. I never had that reaction before and it happened more than once. I found out I was having Salt Rushes & I never knew they existed. I stopped going there for a while but I've gone back on occasion and if I do, I tend to get the salads or maybe Chicken Selects. But I did have an Angus burger, the Mushroom and Swiss and it was pretty darn good. I still love the Double Quarter Pounder w/Cheese but God knows when I'm going back there to have that again.

i dont eat it anymore nor my kids!! since they heard there was potato starch or something in the milkshakes, plus jamie oliver did his thing on telly about whats in a chicken nugget - not nice very disgusting!


since i went organic i cant stomach anything thats shite or tastes bland, cant eat at takeaways anymore although i do sometimes order chinese but have a lot to drink (alcohol) with it.

I dont even eat processed packaged bread anymore its disgusting!

even all my meat is organic.

I remember the first macdonalds opening in my area of london and it was considered a treat to go there. now all my generation have grown up lard arses eating junk instead of real food.

Have to say though it takes a few years for the smell to stop making you fancy a burger. Now it smells greasy to me, its a bit like smokin you have to get over the habit of that kinds food.

i think macdonalds is a dying fad thats run its sorry arse course. I dont know many people who encourage their kids eating it its a bit like coke too. They constantly advertise directly to kids and try to look all healthy, its all a bit of a leap too far too late.

Kids are better educated now about nutrician. sorrry i cant spell!!


sorry i know i sound boring!!! lol

I had managed to stay outta Mickey D's for almost 10 years until a friend mentioned their Big 'n Tasty burger and how good it was like 5 years ago. Every time I'd pass McDonald's I'd think of the Big 'n Tasty. It took me 5 years but I finally tried it and now I'm hooked. I prolly have a Big 'n Tasty meal 2-3 times a month. I really need to stop though.

It be calling me, like a crack pipe.

SCNDLS said:

They can be addicting as hell. I'm sure that's what led to my belly looking like a Big Mac.

purplecam said:

Alright, Pookie.

SCNDLS said:

Thanks. It is what it is right now.

I heard a rumor several years ago about McDonald's hamburgers that was of course completely untrue but it caused me not to eat them for like 15 years. I Now I will eat an occasional Bi Mac (ketchup only, which seems to drive them nuts). Whoppers are better!

GottaLetitgo said:

Now THAT's my burger right there! Double Whopper with Cheese

i always preferred burger king chicken royale!


stop it you people im gettin hungry!

I still crave McDonalds specifically, and not any other fast food. But I rarely enjoy a quarter pounder anymore. They taste like they're a month old.

I usually only get an order of fries or the occasional filet-o-fish. They have a new iced-coffee I am a big fan off!

omg the vanilla and the caramel one are sooooo good

they're the best thing about mcdonald's right now

Funny there is a McDonalds thread going right now, the owner of all 6 McDonalds in Santa Barbara, died last week at the age of 93. He is credited as the inventor of the "Egg McMuffin" there is a plaque in the McDonalds on state street, crediting him for inventing it in that restaurant in the early 70's, and McDonalds chains added it to there regular menu in 1973.

I always ask for a large regular flavor, sucker is huge and only two bucks!!!

I need to stop being lazy then

G for me. The only thing I like at McDonald's now are their greasy fries and their shamrock shake that they have for St. Patty's Day.

psychodelicide said:

omg yes. i totally missed the shamrock shakes this year. i was so pissed off.

Nasty said:

I hate when that happens!

psychodelicide said:

yeah. i'll just get three next year instead of my usual one. one for interest

SCNDLS said:

You wanna talk about crack in food....those damn Chalupa's from Taco Bell have me in cold sweats at night I NEED IT!!!



I rarely eat Micky D's IF i'm starving and that is the only thing around at the moment then 'yes' and the only thing I eat from there is the fish!

Nasty said:

That's a good idea.

purplecam said:

Big Macs are okay... I'll eat one every once in a while. Usually I'll have the Quarter Pounder with Cheese, and if I'm really hungry, I'll make it a Double QPC.

Angus Burgers aren't available at locations here in Seattle, apparently.

Other than the above... sometimes I'll order the double cheeseburger. (I was glad when they made that a regular menu item, although in hindsight, I suspect it was always available upon request.) And when I was Catholic, I'd order the Filet-O-Fish on Fridays during Lent.

syble said:

Fuck that shit. Of course they advertise to kids. It lies with the parents to say "No McD's today." Everything's good in moderation.

Plus, I used to eat McDonald's quite often (probably about once a week, in my pre-teen to early teen years) and I'm still skinny as a rail. What might give someone a heart attack might be good to someone else.
