McDonalds Salads

[kags]

Why?

[treaclefight]

indeed

[coggles]

They put them in deeds? Treacle, I suppose your the lady to ask.

[Greedyfly]

Because 'fat' people keep sueing them for making people fat - so they are trying to promote a healthier company

I put on weight and I've eaten McDonald's twice, I wonder if I'd have a good case.

Regardless what condition your suitcase is in, you shouldn't be eating MacCrap any way !

[Jenny Tools]

Sorry ;-}

I went to a concert at Wembley Arena last week, My boyfriend had McDonalds, and I'm on a diet so couldnt eat anything. It was great that they did a salad so i could eat at the same time and place as him. I didnt have the dressing so the calories were fine! my complaint though, is that a salad costs �3.50 in mcDonalds, whereas an entire meal (burger and chips) + drink costs about the same price. You shouldnt have to pay extra money for a salad.... Bring on the complaints about McDonalds being a fast food outlet who dont have to cater for salad eaters, hence cost, and how I should have prepared myself something or eaten somewhere else...i think its good that McDonalds are catering for people who go with their kids/boyfriend etc who dont want to eat burgers...

They are more fattening than the burgers and not as nice. It's just so they can answer back to the healthy living brigade that they offer alternative choices. McChicken sandwiches are their most healthy 'burger' type thingy.

From where do you get your info, secretspirit? As for the McChicken Sandwich being the "healthiest" burger, both hamburgers and cheeseburgers contain fewer calories. As for salads being "more fattening than burgers"...


Quarter Pounder with Cheese: 516.0 KC (13.3g saturated fat);

Bacon McDouble with Cheese: 478.0 KC (11.4g saturated fat);

Big Mac: 493.0 KC (9.8g saturated fat);

Double Cheeseburger: 438.0 KC (11.7g saturated fat);

McChicken Premier: 474.0 KC (3.5g saturated fat);

Vegetable Deluxe: 418.0 KC (3.6g saturated fat);


Grilled Chicken Ranch Salad with Dressing: 396.0 KC (8.0g saturated fat);

Just a thought. Do any of the people who condemn MacDonalds ever eat chocolate?

[brawburd]

McChicken has lowest saturated fat, and I think that's where the claim of it being healthier comes from. 8g saturated fat in a sald is high, obviously from the dressing which you can chuck - but �3.50?!

[apricot]

Why eat McDonalds at all when you could eat good food?

[secretspirit]

(Reply to IndieSinger) I judge it by weightwatchers points, which are calculated using both calories and saturated fat. Using those McChicken sandwich comes out at lowest points i.e. healthiest. I'm not convinced that the McChicken Premier which you mention is the standard one.
