How about a Frankenstein burger? You don't get a discount on your food if it's only 51% actual food.

    This is all very interesting, but the reason I am here is because I know what is in the food and I still eat it because guess what, its delicious. I am the one that watch super size me, and went to McDonalds right after that, honestly. If it taste good, I don't care what they put in it. But I am learning to eat these things in moderation.

    well I have a much weaker stomach than you lol. Fast food is addictive. I have to stay away from it or I get into a cycle of cravings. Other food doesn't make me feel that way. I've gone from eating it three meals a day to about once a week, and now it makes me very sick to my stomach almost immediately.

    Me too!! The closing shot of the fries made me sooo hungry!! haha

    I find that if I am craving fast food, sometimes ketchup will do the trick... or a pickle... those are both my favorire parts of the McDonalds hamburger, and it re-creates the ketchup/pickle flavor on the hamburger... hahaha

    This is weird and not always handy, but I brush my teeth when I get a craving for something on the not-so-good-for-me list.

    The hardest part for me is "What do I do with all this information?" It's not just fast food. It's all food that doesn't come from your own yard or someone else's. So you're pretty much doomed to just deal with it. Just thought I'd post it, the gross factor may be enough to turn you off one Big Mac today anyway.
