For stupid people that don't think all that crust and cheese are high in carbs and calories, it must be really difficult. Why else would the nanny-staters implement regulations as ridiculous as this?
This would only make sense to those people who think McDonald's is a health food store.
It appears “Obama” is becoming the word that can be used to really make a point. Like one commenter above says, “Go Obama yourself”. I find that funny because yesterday one of my friends came over with her grandson who “accidently” fell into my pool. She was yelling at him to get out and I was laughing and told him he was acting just like Obama. He’s 9. He jumped out and told me NO WAY. I’M NOT AN OBAMA, HE TALKS TO MUCH AND DOESN’T DO WHAT PEOPLE SAY.
Pretty smart for 9.
Actually, I think it would be nice to be able to compare. Determine which pizza in the area is healthiest. I’m trying to make my own low carb crust, but haven’t gotten the formula right yet.
I thought the chicken selects were a relatively healthy choice at McDonalds and I was letting my son have them. Then they finally put a nutrition label on them and I realized one serving was 6 grams of trans fat. So I stopped.
Since that time McDonalds here has changed the grease they fry them in, and they are now 0 grams of trans fat (in this area, not sure if it is nation wide yet. Last I read Mcdonalds was implementing this gradually). Now I let him have them again.
I like nutrition labels. It’s a one time cost for a restaurant. It doesn’t deprive consumers of choice, but allows for an informed choice.
And given our nation’s obesity/diabetes epidemics and the way healthcare costs are breaking the nation, it’s one of the simplist and least offensive things government can do.
