Nagel Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I was working night shifts when I went on a job in Texas for a couple of weeks and there was nowhere else to go except McDonalds to get some food around midnight. I definitely felt ill after that. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medusa Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 If I have more than a couple of days without a decent salad or mountain of steamed or stir fried vegetables I start to feel really rough. If someone was to tell me that I had to eat McDonalds for a week I'd be exploring all the unusual bits of menu that would break up the monotony, like porridge and salads.

It would be in bun with a little egg on top if they still do. The Mac's main website is well bizarre. No prices and, er, just bizzare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was some veggie guy or something. I eat meat, but, I'm really not joking on this thread - I do feel some of the sentiments in that film maybe correct.

I definitely felt ill after that. Ugh. must have been a small town. it's true Mcdonalds are more depressing in the US though than they are elsewhere. Outside the US, they still have the glamour of being 'aspirational'. You don't see bunches of high school kids in the US in Mcdonalds having a fast-food meal and thinking they've hit the consumerist jackpot like you will in poorer countries. Maybe in the 1950s, but not now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bizzle Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I love the taste of it but only have it probably once a year, as every time I have it I can't digest it and swear off it for good. Eating it all week? Brave, heroic and probably stupid. Is your skin grey and are you able to stand for more than a minute at a time? I used to feel like that everytime I had one of their meals. It was enough to put me off. I have not been in their for over 7 years or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
