McDonalds.....Don't Eat the Food!

[dave1949]

Avoiding fats, sugars and such isn't equivalent to good nutrition. Whatever is left after eliminating or reducing those things is where the nutrition needs to be.

Lists of chemical ingredients aren't proof of nutrition that the body can use well.

Brin, no use they don't know how to interpret it as it relates to nutrition.

Don - Moss must be thinking it is just all about calories...and fat....I mean even McDonald's warned their employees not to make a steady diet of their food...they did not tell them to scrape off mayo and throw away buns...they said eat other healthy food...Just Wow !

Moss...It only takes about one week...Just try eating a salad with no dressing at all...You know what ..? all of a sudden you begin to really taste all of the great vegetables not covered up by chemicals...the same goes for everything else you eat...Whatever vegetable ..it does not need all the sauces and dressings....These are the chemical laden prepared foods that are killing folks and making them obese....

What I sense here is a bunch of grumpy old men with bad cholesterol numbers who probably didn't take care of themselves in their earlier lives and may now have some hostility towards folks that can eat stuff that they can no longer eat. Or, perhaps, some good guys that have genetic heart trouble that was out of their control from birth that want to open some folks eyes to heart disease. Either way, you can still eat fairly healthy at fast food places if you put some effort into it.

I eat about 19-20 meals per week. 7-8 are meatless. 7 are chicken or fish. And 4-5 are pork or beef. A lot of fruits, nuts and vegetables. About 18-24 cookies per week(depending on size of cookie) and about a gallon and a half of 2% milk. And the occasional root beer float. Maybe two beers per week on the weekend. 5 of those meals are at fast food places on average. And as stated, my numbers have come down to what they are supposed to be. Take it or leave it. I'm going to lunch. :licking:

I eat a lot of raw veggies with no dressing at dinner. They are quite tasty.

For that matter, I over consumed raw broccoli and cauliflower during the super bowl and paid the price.... slept on the couch for a few hours.

I love both of those...and so you know Moss my Cholesterol is 153 HDL - 56, LDL 84, VLDL 13 and triglycerides are 66....I have already stated my wife and I were High School Sweethearts and in the last 50+ yrs. can count the times we've eaten fast food on our fingers and toes...and we have never eaten processed foods...neither of us was raised on it....

Raw veggies are good but you really should wear something during dinner......:laughing:
