When you eat just ONE single menu item at McDonald’s, even a “healthy” item like their Premium Southwest Grilled Chicken Salad, you’re really eating ingredients like powdered cellulose, soybean oil, autolyzed yeast extract, and high fructose corn syrup – and that doesn’t even include the dressing that’s loaded with more soybean oil and refined sugars. They also serve organic milk and don’t use GMO ingredients overseas – all while serving us GMOs here in the States. What they’re serving in other countries isn’t perfect, but it’s better. Instead of frying their food in partially hydrogenated oils laced with dimethylpolysiloxane like they do in the U.S., they use a non-hydrogenated vegetable oil blend instead. aren’t used over there at all, such as TBHQ, BHA, propyl gallate, azodicarbonamide, sodium phosphate and artificial colors. If you compare their ingredients with what they serve in London, you’ll see that many of the food additives used in the U.S. I know this because McDonald’s is already doing it for our friends overseas.
The problem is that millions are still eating there and consuming several questionable food additives that McDonald’s could remove entirely if they really wanted to. So, they need to do a lot more than just add kale to their menu before I’d ever eat there. You know the saying, “You can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig”. I LOVE kale, and I hope they don’t find a way to ruin it. McDonald’s even said they might add kale to their menu, by putting it in salads or in a smoothie. They also are finally listening to us, and will stop using chickens that are injected with growth-promoting antibiotics, along with dairy products raised with the growth hormone rbST but they still are using a lot of factory farmed meat and the beef is still raised with antibiotics. McDonald’s announced recently that they are going through some major menu changes, and will be nixing some unnecessary ingredients. What I found funny about their report is that while they eat there, they won’t admit it to their friends because they consider the food there so low quality.Īlthough most of us realize their food isn’t healthy and McDonald’s reports that their sales are struggling – they continue to feed thousands of Americans, day in and day out and that’s why it’s so important for you to share this information with all your friends and family members.ĭo the people that eat at McDonald’s realize how many questionable chemicals they are eating in one meal? Someone recently asked me what I think the worst ingredients are at McDonald’s and my first thought was… “Um, where do I start?!” The 37-page ingredient list for McDonald’s reads like an encyclopedia of nutrition-less, additive-filled, processed food. It should be pretty obvious that I don’t eat at McDonald’s (and many of you may not either) but I still have family members and friends that eat there on a regular basis (and I can guess you probably do too!).Īccording to a recent Morgan Stanley report, young adults eat at McDonald’s more than any other restaurant.
