discodown Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I've been to all there places. Of course there are Mcdonnalds there. There's a Mcdonnalds in every corner of the world. You don't get half as many people using them in the countries I mentioned though. Most people like to know what they are putting in there mouth. Not like the ignorant Bits. As long as it tastes fattening and is ready yesterday the British would eat anything.Well lets do a little comparison Calories in a Big Mac = 490 Source Calories in a chicken korma and rice = varies from around 500 to 800 depending on how you cook it do a google search if you don't believe me Calories in a thai green curry = 562.5 Source I'm sure theres others you could find that are lower in calories and I realise i'm being a total **** but the vast majority of brits don't stuff their faces at mcdonalds all day every day and you do the majority of us a disservice by suggesting that we do. Most of us are pretty decent in our eating habits. Most of us are fairly good about what we eat and don't deserve your little rant tarring us all with the same brush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discodown Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 No. As I've said. twice.So what is Mcdonalds if it isn't fast food? Is it fine dining? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said anything about calories? Good food doesn't mean low fat. The majority of the British people are ignorant about food. That's why there are too many TV chefs and Tesco are taking our island over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmith Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 So what is Mcdonalds if it isn't fast food? Is it fine dining? It’s fast fine dining. Sometimes anyway, but on a couple of occasions I have had to wait a couple of minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comparison (and my behaving like an arse) is because you are being unfair. Most people are pretty good about food. A little misguided, a bit out of practise maybe when it comes to cooking, probably a bit far removed from the animal but generally ok about eating. Most people aren't in Mcdonalds and kfc and burger king all day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alternageek Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I think Im an odd man out, but find mcdonalds chicken nuggets to be foul. In fact, I really dont like fast food chicken. It tastes off to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodStar Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I know, it says that in the link: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/10/04/mechanically-separated-meat-chicken-mcnugget-photo_n_749893.html The story has been amended to reflect that although mass produced chicken nuggets at large may contain mechanically separated chicken, McDonald's famous McNuggets no longer do contain "mechanically separated poultry as defined by the federal government. Ah, its just that the title of your thread is 'can you guess what McDonalds food item this is?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harleyman Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Are there any other fast food chains in Sheffield or is McDonald's the only one? Reason I'm asking is because McDonald's is the only food outlet that ever comes up for discussion on these kind of threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDonalds is just generally perceived to be the worst: in terms of quality of food and atmosphere. It's the go to example, that's all. Even people who like to go there often acknowledge that it's a terrible place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
