Answer 1

mcdonalds is really bad for you

theres a movie called supersize me where a guy eats nothing but mcdonalds for a month and almost dies. fries have 20 calories per, and chicken selects have a lot since there fried, mcdonalds is okay everyonce in a while tho

Answer 2

fried food is really bad for you first of all. Its fried in oil!! THe chicken selects are fried too! Any once a week is alot of calories! They dont leave fries from day to day.. but they will use them throughout the day and then they taste old!

Answer 3

watch "supersize me" the movie, and it will all be explained to you

Answer 4

It's true in the long run. Your brother is right about that.

I wish I have a brother like yours. Can he be my brother too ?

Answer 5

Yea thats true it is bad for you but also good b/c u need a bit of everything!...no i havnt heard that they leave the fries day to day they make new ones evey day and throw away the old ones.

Answer 6

First of all, food doesn't give you cancer.

Secondly, I don't give a rip what the dietitians say, all food is bad for you...so eat what you want!

Third, they SHOULD throw their food out daily...it's a safety issue if they don't.

Fourth, if you eat in moderation, you should be good. Portion size is when people get in trouble with food.

Finally, for good measure, don't be a moron and sue McDonald's...they aren't making you go there! LOL

Answer 7

Too much of any food can be bad for you.  McDonald's eaten in moderation is fine as long as you have a relatively healthy diet and exercise.  And they do have some healthier choices available.  The food is made fresh to order, nothing sits around for more than 5 minutes let alone a whole day.

Answer 8

Just look at it this way: Going to McDonald's for a salad, is like going to a crack house for vitamins.

Answer 9

your brother is not too bright.  McDonald's is not bad for you if you do watch the amount of food you eat.  Anything you eat is fine, as long as you watch the portion sizes.  You should check out this website: www.iemily.com  it is a website for girls health, and no doubt will give you information on fast food choices... don't stress.  Just remember, anything in excess can be harmful.

Answer 10

it can be bad eating certain things with the way they are cooked

Answer 11

well u are right it is bad for you but only if you eat it all the time but if u like eat there like once in a while then u will be fine.

Answer 12

Yes, its true that mcdonalds is bad for you. once every while is okay to eat, like once a month. every saturday is bad, even the salad is bad for you. they put some chemicals that makes you obese and might get you some cancer .

Answer 13

The only bad thing about McDonald's is that the food is high in fat and salt.  They do not leave the fries out from day to day - every restaurant in the US has to follow basic food safety guidelines set forth by the government.  If you are a McDonald's franchise owner, you already dropped over $1.0M to buy the franchise and have gone through months of training, plus you footed the the cost of the restaurant.  You therefore wouldn't jeopardize your huge investment by trying to save a few dollars on fries.  And, if you have many complaints filed against you, you could lose the franchise altogether.  These owners make a lot of money on their investment, it makes no sense at all that they would do something to threaten that.

Fries and chicken selects once a week isn't bad for you, you could do a lot worse.  Round out your diet during the week with healthy foods and treat yourself that one time over the weekend.  Everything in moderation - remember that and you'll be fine.

Answer 14

It is true that some McDonalds keep stale and old fries out and you don't even know it unless you can taste it in the fries.

McDonalds is bad for you but their food is so good that you can't put it down when you first bite into it.....

Answer 15

well it is "bad" but if you are making healthier choices during the week u should be fine

Answer 16

No, that is not true. McDonald's uses fresh ingredients and they DO NOT leave their fries out for several days. Your brother is just trying to trick you.

It's okay if you eat McDonald's every Saturday, as long as it's just fries and chicken selects, and you don't eat it more than once a week. Fries and chicken contains a lot of grease and fat which is not good for you if you eat it very often. As long as you eat healthy the rest of the week, you are fine.

Answer 17

Who knows whats in mcdonalds these days..

I used to work there.. And they've improved it in Australia..

The fries are cooked when they run out..

Even the healthier options at maccas are not good for anyone..

Once a week should be fine though.. Seriously even if its not healthy it tastes good sometimes..

I prefer burger king.. the burgers are bigger, tastes better and has salad on them.. Double whopper with cheese please.. thank you

Answer 18

Like OMG, yes, I heard the same thing.  My GF tells me it well give me ED (erectile deficiency) problems! LOL!

Answer 19

There not supposed to leave the fries, but I watched a report on the Chicken Selects and they are no healthier than any other thing on the menu and they are just as un-healthy than any other thing can be.

Answer 20

fast food is never good for you-why do you think its fast?? probably twice a year or less...fast foods are never really good for you. even those salads (the dressing addds probably 200-300 calories)

Answer 21

wow ur brother needs help...hes trying to scare u...the fries are thrown away every 7 minutes cuz they are no longer good and they do not give u cancer...mcdonalds can be good 4 u if u eat the right things in moderation

Answer 22

I don't think it's bad for you to eat chicken selects and french fries, as long as you are getting proper nutrition from other foods as well. Besides, there things a lot worse that you could be eating. Chicken selects are made from the chicken breast, which is lean healthy meat. Just try to keep a balanced diet through the week, and you can easily enjoy a fast food meal on Saturday with few problems.  

You can definitely talk with your school's dietitian, who'd be able to answer your questions and give you sound advice, or your doctor.

Answer 23

I don't think once a week is any big deal. The food's fresh, it's just that it's all processed; even the fruits and vegetables are chemically treated to keep them longer. And that stuff has far more negative than positive nutrition value. It isn't good for you.
