McDonald’s often shows you their nutritional fact charts, which is full of impressive-looking but really quite irrelevant facts & figures to make you think that McDonald’s could be part of your diet. What people don’t know is that the diet is high in fat, sugar, animal products and sodium, and low in fiber, vitamins and minerals. These “facts” are linked with cancers of the breast, bowel, and heart disease. McDonald's require that their "fresh lettuce leaf", for example, be treated with twelve different chemicals just to keep it the right color at the right crispness for the right length of time. It might as well be a bit of plastic. Most of the meat from any of the major chains has anything but a simple ingredients list. They add emulsifiers, preservatives, MSG, artificial colors, trans fats, and hidden ingredients under generic labels such as spices, or natural and artificial flavors.
