HOLEEE CRAP. McDonalds nutritional information
GAAAAAH
I resisted getting McDonalds for lunch today, along with the rest of my office. Go me.
My usual:
Quarter Pounder with Cheese
French Fries
Chocolate shake
These add up to:
1,770 mg of sodium
1,660 calories
70 grams of fat
No wonder I never eat for the rest of the day when I have McDonalds. I mean I KNEW it was bad. But this is crazy. I don't even eat HALF of those fat grams in one day!
Go ahead, you want to add up your usual meals. You know you wanna.

Re: HOLEEE CRAP. McDonalds nutritional information
OMG that's my fave meal at McD's too- though I don't always get the shake. That probably helps....um...a little. 
I have to check on the chicken fingers!!
And yes- go you!!!  It is sooo hard to resist when everyone else is getting it. I can imagine how tough it would be if I had a chance to go to All American in Massapequa. I can NEVER say no!! Good thing I've never seen their nutritional info posted anywhere!

Re: HOLEEE CRAP. McDonalds nutritional information
The Quarter Pounder box actually has the information right on it. That's how we found out - then I went to the site.
I could have two pints of ice cream and still not reach those figures.
Heeeey... that's an idea!

Twice, no less. Someone came in with it and then another person went out to get more.
However, there IS a box of munchkins no less than 10 feet from me.
This place is not good for people on a diet!!

Re: HOLEEE CRAP. McDonalds nutritional information
is it bad that i just read that list and it says "Bacon egg & cheese biscuit" (regular size biscuit)
and underneath it says "Bacon egg & cheese biscuit" (large size biscuit)
and my first reaction was "OMG! there's a LARGE sized biscuit for bacon egg & cheese.....why have i never been offered this before!!?!?!?"

Re: HOLEEE CRAP. McDonalds nutritional information
Ok so I decided to change from the double quarter pounder with fries and soda to a chicken bacon ranch salad. I thought it was a little better than before.
 I just learned that the salad with dressing works out to be the same as the double and fries!
Thats it! I give up on all fast food.
Thanks for the post

Dressing is a killer. It makes salads some of the most fattening things on any resaturant's menu.
Thats why I always ask for it on the side and only put a teeny amount.

Re: HOLEEE CRAP. McDonalds nutritional information
I think that putting McDonalds and nutritional information in the same sentence is just rather silly. Greenie, I expect better from you!
That being said, give this Passover deserter a Big Mac with EXTRA SPECIAL SAUCE!!!!

I do the same but I dip, I don't pour. And I try not to choose anything that's creamy.

PIMP!!!
Tricia - Kudos to you for resisting temptation. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have had that kind of restraint - twice no less.

Re: HOLEEE CRAP. McDonalds nutritional information
My coworkers are evil.
They just came back with Carvel.
I resisted. I don't know how the hell I did it.
I'm going to be so frustrated by the time I get to the restaurant with my friend tonight for dinner, I'm going straight to dessert.
