Question

Whats healthier some type or burger from mcdonalds or a mcdonalds salad?

Answer 1

McDonalds has been trying to make some healthier options, especially with the pressure about child obesity in this country. I have tried their Asian salad, though , and it has greatly imporoved. It used to be gross, but now, they're packaged fresh daily! Very healthy romaine and greens, not cheapo iceberg lettuce. Fresh-tasting mandarin oranges, yummy toasted almonds, snap peas, shredded carrots, and a low-fat ginger dressing! It's excellent, and about as nutritious as a subway snadwhich, provided you choose the grilled chicken over the crispy. Very healthy choice, definitely healthier than a burger there!

Answer 2

Really, nothing there is healthy at all. They say now that they are banning Trans-fats from their menus, but that's still not going to be doing a whole lot.

Obviously, the salad will be healthier than a grease-slathered, heart attack on a bun, but neither of them are what you would find in a hospital cafeteria.

If you can, skip both of them and prepare your own food fresh as much as possible.

Answer 3

I would say the salad is healthier, but by the time you get the salad dressing on it, a hamburger may be healthier.  It all depends if you put salad dressing on it and if you do, what type of salad dressing.

Answer 4

Salad with lite dressing and broiled chicken.
