MAC33 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 if you google ingredients in big mac bread/bun, you will find that there are something like 40 separate ingredients in a big mac bun! as the chips are so very thin, they have much more surface area than regular sized chips so will absorb much more fat! if you must eat chips, buy wedges as they have the smallest surface area,so least fat content per weight.

Including faecal matter: Deciding to eat a fast-food hamburger means you have a pretty good chance of ingesting some fecal matter. Which is just not something you, the consumer, want to consider. Most fast- food purchases are made impulsively. And technologists are working in the flavor labs to keep the burgers almost addictively delicious. But anyway, now you know.

MAC33 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 mcdonalds, hungry jacks are huge here in Australia. i eat subway, but remember their 8 wholewheat buns are actually only around 15% wholemeal, yes that's right, you are eating white bread when you buy wholewheat bread from Subway. in America they add HFC [ HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP] to Subway, which has been strongly linked to obesity. check the Subway website out for conformation, and before i forget the corn syrup they get from the corn..... well i'm sure your aware corn in the US is nearly all genetically modified.
