The truth about McDonalds

The truth about McDonalds
                 A personal experience I could share about the fast food industry is that I used to be a number one fan about eating this food and taking my kids to McDonalds .After reading about how the hamburgers are made and what really a hamburgers contains I don’t think I would ever eat another hamburger .I knew that the McDonalds food was bad but I did not know all the things that are hidden and the consumers don’t know .It is not only the trans fat tat is bad is the way McDonalds food is assembled. I also thought that the chicken nuggets were a healthy choice. I used to take my kids to eat and play there but I also learned in my class how the chicken nuggets are made. I learned that this is not a healthy choice either .The chickens are raised with a lot of chemicals which is really bad and that’s what I was feeding my children. I am really glad we studied this topic in class and it made me aware of the things that I was  eating and feeding my children .I hope more and more people can get informed about what’s  really behind the golden arches .It’s not happiness it’s something that would affect us or our kids in the future.

  1. Wow - this is a stunning response. Your reaction seems swift and admirable. I'm amazed that you feel so strongly about this, but also very impressed by the power of your newfound conviction.

    As we've read with the Kessler, it's clear that fast food creates a lot of sensations in the body - some cravings, and some pleasures, too. But the health consequences are one thing, and the "process" of making fast food meat another. I hope that you find a way to enjoy an "organic" burger from time to time: I know you can get some of those choices from Chipolte and Steak Shack (though I'd confirm this rumor first, I haven't checked on this).
