Fries are awful for you too. Same with coke, never drink calories outside of booze. The habit added garlic Brussels to their menu and I appreciate that
I never looked at nutrition labels for drinks until the other day. I’m glad I drink pretty much strictly water and tea now but I don’t even know how I’m alive.
I was craving a Fanta Pineapple, shit had 150% of the total recommended sugar. I used to drink multiple sodas a day when I was younger..

Those "Wow, this fast food is over X calorie" things are always so dumb, just presenting a big number with no regard for what people actually need day by day. Putting aside whether calorie counting is even wise or not, for a man, the RDA in calories is 2500. That means over 3 meals you'd want to average ~800 calories per meal. In that regard, the meal is still too much, but no one is eating the same amounts for each meal - breakfast is likely to be much smaller, and lunch probably as well. If you had a 300 cal breakfast and 700 cal lunch, then the 1500 calories that the tweet is so shocked by would be fine for an average man.
The unhealthiness comes much more from things like salt and sugar levels, calories are only really an issue if you're eating fast food for every meal.

Yeah, the grand mac meal is not even an eye popper. I'm somewhat surprised the calorie count from the burger itself is actually that low.
Though it helps that I only eat one meal a day anyway.

what the fuck
Thant's not even a lot by fast food standards. Ever seen someone eat an entire large pizza from Domino's? That's 1930 calories for a classic crust, cheese and tomato. Not even including the mandatory cookies you're legally obligated to order from them.
It's besides the point though, honestly. People don't get fat because of easy access to fast food. People get fat because they don't think about what they're eating or don't care. It's just as easy to walk into a Maccies and buy a meal that's under 600 calories as it is a meal over 1000 calories.
Also no one gets full fat coke in the UK anyways due to the sugar tax that's added on. Or if they do they are stupid, and I disapprove of them.
I used to drink around 8 cans of Dr Pepper a day. Easy.
Soda should be in the same group as tobacco tbh. Blight on society.

I've never been into full sugar drinks. Pepsi Max and Aldi sugar free energy drinks are the only ones I really drink besides, yeno, water.

Most people I know have a resting metabolic rate of less than 2000. /shrug
The burger is probably one of the healthier things you can get for fast food. As long as it’s not full of sugary BBQ sauce and fried onion rings. Regular burger is basically just meat, bread and veggies.
It’s the coke, fries etc etc. Also portion sizes. I swear a small drink is the same size as a large when I was a kid.
Generally most fast food places have a grilled chicken sandwich which is a lot better for you than a burger. Much better nutrients even if its processed fast food chicken.

Pepsi Max is something I get, especially during winter.
Got no problems with water only especially during summer, but once it's getting colder I tend to drink Pepsi Max.
- Water
- Iced Tea (unsweetened you fucking southern heathens)
- La Croix (or something like it)
- Occasional Coke Zero
- even rarer Monster Zero

I tasted Monster Zero and it disgusted me, to the point of feeling like i had to throw up if i forced myself through it. Tasted like this medicine I was on for a while, that I also absolutely hated.

I only like one of the flavors. Most are garbage.
I like that Lewis Hamilton one.
But I try not to buy Monster, because as a gamer, I need g-fuel, not monster.

By Pennywise Go To PostNever tried out the Aldi one, as I already hate the full sugar Aldi one.It's not bad, I prefer it over most since it's not overly sweet and it's got a bit of a citrus tang to it. Don't bother with their knock off red bulls though. They taste like any other red bull, shit.
