But yeah, that article is classic trolling -- let's make these perfectly fine ingredients sound scary. FoodBabe would be proud of Ms. Breyer.
I was thoroughly expecting the source to be FoodBabe.com.

chef of 10 years... dont think people realize there are for sure some iffy ethical choices being made in the kitchen... some cooks are just *kitten* and sometimes when backed up there isnt grade a by the code cleanliness going on.0 -
Yes, it's two different threads under one title.0 -

I agree though this is everywhere not just McDonalds0 -
Yeah. It's always odd to me that people single out fast food restaurants when it comes to unethical kitchen choices.singingflutelady wrote: »

If you're that worried about someone spitting in your food, why would you go out to eat anywhere?0 -

That's why I asked. I was genuinely just curious, i wasnt making a joke . I don't go to McDonalds often so didn't realize you could order breakfast meats all day. ( I don't eat meat so I guess I really never thought about it )0 -

Thanks @diannethegeek thanks for finding the source of this train of thought what was published over 4 years ago. It is amazing how LCHF options have changed at even a place like McDonalds in the last 6 months even.
Being able to eat more or less LCHF at McDonald's is something I just learned recently when I needed LCHF options when traveling after learning of the option on MFP.

I do like that you can get the Egg McMuffin all day now. 300 calories and decent macros when I'm not home and can't stop for something else.0 -
Yeah I got flamed for that too.. lol.
Which I still don't understand.0 -
I love eggs so that makes me happy. Tim Hortons doesn't offer breakfast all day so when I am craving a fast food egg sandwich I used to go to subway0

My son asks for a McDonald's breakfast sandwich sometimes, he also likes the egg and sausage muffin. I may have to take him at night and check this out
I personally don't go to McDonalds often at all. I like the burger king veggie burger much better so I go there when I want fast food . I don't think McDonald's has veggie burgers ?!0 -
I don't think. I can't eat red meat, veggies, seeds or spices (amongst a lot of other things for medical reasons) so I don't often eat at McDonalds except for the odd mcnugget or mcmuffin. I prefer the ultimate chicken sandwich with the chicken breast (I think that's what it is called) at Wendy's.0
-
McDonalds doesn't have any veggie burgers in the US currently AFAIK. I wish they'd bring the ones they sell in India stateside, they sound pretty good.
The sausage mcmuffin is tastier to me, but is quite a bit higher calories so at that point I'd usually rather have a small cheeseburger. I haven't had the BK veggie burgers, may try sometime. The closest BK to me is a pain to get to even though it's less than a mile...too many left turns.0 -
I don't get any ads. Where are they? I am not a premium member.0

Next time you pass the BK , definitely stop and try the veggie burger! It really is tasty ! They put lettuce, pickles, onions, and mayo on it . now that I'm talking about it, I want one for dinner !0 -

Oh man:( sorry to hear you habe many food sensitivities. I'm sure that does make eating fast food hard. I have never tasted a chicken sandwich but my family loves them ! I knew what Wendy's sandwich you where talking about right away!0 -

I have Crohn's disease so I can only eat stuff easy to digest basically. I mean I can eat it but I'd regret it for days

That place is absolutely freaking disgusting I would rather go to a Chinese buffet and pig out on crab legs. And really people can't make a hamburger themselves these days0

No onion rings? In NZ the BK veggie burger is basically a Whopper with Cheese, but with onion rings instead of the meat. It's awesome. McD's do a salad burger (not listed on the menu so you have to know to ask for it). It's lame. The only thing it has going for it is that it uses the mayo they use in the chicken burgers. Though some restaurants will do it, some won't. Some just give you the option of getting a menu burger without the meat.0 -
I'd love it if they brought some of these Indian items to the US. They look very tasty to me.

Yep, much envy. Checking NZ McD's online menu, there's naught in the way of veggie burgers or wraps listed, so perhaps they've stopped again. We do have the aforementioned Creme Egg McFlurries though, and these: https://mcdonalds.co.nz/menu/loaded-fries-guacamole-and-salsa (there's bacon and cheese too).0 -
Man I could tear up a Big Mac... But that's what got me here
Cadbury anything... Not for me. Hate those things!!0 -
