McDonalds...and the new nutritional info

Yes I knew, the info is on their website. It's just like everything else. moderation. Don't make it your daily routine. Once in awhile, when just the smell of the guy's fries in the next cubicle makes you want to eat your keyboard, or steal his! LOL but never get the large and yes share.

I found I like sweet potato fries better than regular ones, with lots of pepper.

I think Burger King is the worse. Have you seen that Breakfast sandwich that has 3 kinds of meat, cheese and eggs. It has mega amounts of carbs, fat and calories.

If you want to check out most fast food and restaurant nutritional information go to:

McDonalds, Burger King, and many other fast and not-so-fast foods have had their nutritional foods listed on the back sides of the tray covers for several years. Calorie Fat & Carb Counterhas been publishing for several years (I have the 2005 edition) that lists even more nutritional information. You can eat fast food and lose weight — share the fries, don't order soft drinks, and hold the special sauces. And take the stairs whenever you can (if you are able to).

yep they do run high in the carbs,, which is why it's better to stick to there salad choices. would be nicer if all fast food places did this. As 99% of them do run a lot higher in the carbs than many think.

I haven't eaten at McDonald's since I saw that Morgan Spurlock movie Supersize Me…glad to see they are being more pro-active and sharing the nutritional info about their food. Even though I don't eat there any longer I still miss a quarter pounder w/cheese every now and then lol.

omg! I have not seen this myself yet but wow! That's wild! Definately a way to discourage me from eattng out so much, not that I do much anyhow but still. Thanks for the info! Sheila

My friend brought her lunch from McDonald's to my house the other day to visit on her lunch break. That was my first look at the new labels. I'm glad they put them on there but horrified at the amount of carbs.

I am on AOL and lately they have been listing the high calorie count in chain restaurants all over the country. I was amazed that one dessert from Chilli's had over 1400 calories in it. I can just imagine the carbs since it used real sugar.

Isn't that something? I know I was shocked to find out about the calories and carbs and fat in fast food. If you really want to be 'enlightened' check out Calorie King.com… you'll never eat fast food again from ANYWHERE LOL

I just check out that site lots of info in it thanks
