zeitgeist57 Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Is it just me, or has the quality and healthiness(word?) of McDonalds food gotten significantly better over the past few years? Items I've enjoyed, and make me eat McDonalds at least 3 meals a week now: Fruit and yogurt parfait Asian Salad Southwest salad SNACK WRAPS (they are the bomb!) fruit and Walnut snack pack Plus, everything is dirty cheap. 2 snack wraps fill me up, and cost less than $3. Anyone else agree, or am I way off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 They definately have more healthy choices. Its just that those who need to make those choices..typically don't. Me included.. Mchicken + Doublecheese = $2 and I'm happy (and fat ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Gotta disagree here. I used to love McDonalds as a kid and as a young adult. Alot. I can hardly stomach any of their food anymore. Their wraps I tried, since I do enjoy the chicken wraps from Sonic, and was very disappointed. I bought two and decided to save one for later. I cannot even describe what their "chicken" turned into. The coffee is bitter and acidic and I can only assume some people think it's good because they've gotten used to from not having known any better. Ever let your nuggets (one of the few things I did still like from them, not anymore) get a little cool or, heaven forbid, cold? Take a bite of one. Really taste it and look at it (the part still in your hand ). Does it appear to be any real chicken you've ever had? I had one of their new bacon ranch burger things here recently. Against my better judgement, I ordered one since the gf HAD to have a fish sandwich from mcd's. The 2 pieces of bacon that were on there didnt' even add up to one whole piece. The burger was a mess and really was terrible and horribly overpriced. Their fries (something mcd's is known for) were cold and disgusting. This was after an incredibly long wait 10-15min with only one other customer. I will say that this McD's is always a loooonnngggg wait no matter the time or crowd. 5 times now I've had to wait at least that long and you can't leave the line once you're in unless you have a truck and no employee cars are blocking. (This Mcd is in Delaware. They f'n suck) I guess I shouldn't complain. At least they get my order correct every other time. Sorry for the long rant as this personal Mcd's ban is a very fresh one for me. Salads, "healthy" wraps wraps, "fresh" fruit, etc. is a sham and is used only to draw attention away from the rest of the menu and the fast food critics. In summary: You can dress a fat, balding, cock-eyed bitch in the sexiest victoria secrets has to offer and she's still a fat, balding, cock-eyed bitch that nobody but Dr. Rick would want. ( Sorry, buddy, owed you one.lol ) Ricer summary: You can put a big funkin wing on your stock auto 1987 civic and it's still.... you know what... it makes a fuckin jet plane. Go give a shot.

l36tols1 Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Yeah I only go to McDonalds for the breakfast.. Last time I ate one of their hamburgers I threw it up 15 minutes later All the salads and wraps stated in the oringinal post I can make at home in 10 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 The Golden Arches have been good for a few months now for me. I usually eat lunch there 1-3 times per month. Usually when I travel. I just get an urge for a Quarter Pounder with Cheese and can't hold it off. Many times it comes out looking just like the photos. Sounds crazy I know. BK is the worst for me.

baron_ Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Gotta disagree here. +1 for this man When i was little...you could go to McDonalds and get a fish or chicken meal and actually see that you were eating fish or chicken The fish patty was in the shape of *gasp* a filet Now, if i'm forced to eat the square that they give...i make damned sure that I don't make the mistake of looking at what's going in my mouth Wendy's FTW even burger king.....just not mcdonalds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cptn janks Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 the southwest "salad" has 400 calories in it. compare that to a big mac which has only 140 calories more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmw330is Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 I'm not sure that its entirely possible to eat healthy fast food, but i have noticed that since they changed over their oil the fries are considerably shittier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mensan Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Anyone remember when some McDonalds had pizza? No, but I remember commercial. They stopped serving it when they stopped using styrofoam containers. They still had them when I lived in the middle east. Apparently Arabs don't give a shit about the styrofoam.

akaRED Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 I guess after the "Its your fault im fat because i choose to eat your food" Law suit, they wanted to add some Healthy items to the menu? Dont know though, i always grab the bigmac :nod: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87GT Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Their pizza was great. Remember when they had those mini corn dogs? I hate McD's anymore. Their food makes my stomach hurt. Wendys has better tasting food anyways. Nothing like going to wendys for a Jr bacon cheese, side salad, baked potato, mandrine orange cup, and a frosty for only $5.

The Pikey Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Bring back deep fried apple pie, that is all. Damn straight! I guess idiots couldn't read the warning on the box: Filling is a few degrees hotter than molten lava. Side complaint: Taco Bell's quality has become much worse, the more it has become popular. I remember when the ground beef looked like beef. Now it looks like orange dog food, and tastes funny:confused: Scott Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
