I don't know how a person can eat Bob Evans Caramel Banana Pecan Cream Stacked and Stuffed Hotcakes, for breakfast. @1540 cals. Who do they sell this shit to?
I like Americans on the whole, I hate American chocolate, Dong finds it like dog chocolate, I find it like the 'chocolate flavoured candy' cheap kids sweets are made from.
McDonald's is ruining the physical health of people in every nation. That's sad. I know they're not solely responsible but Americans are known for their fast food ways and i'm embarrassed we've encouraged other cultures to indulge.
The American food industry has a responsibility to take a look at what people are eating in nations that don't have an obesity problem, that have low rates of cancer and heart disease, and that have overall good health. Then it should make those choices available to Americans.
Credit to McD's; they're trying to make amends for that over here. A McDonald's menu in the UK is actually relatively healthy now and contains just as much 'good' food as it does junk food. Of course, they can't force people to eat the salads and whatnot, but I'm not sure it's their fault what consumers choose to eat if they offer a range of foods.
Sadly, people are lazy and what food ASAP. Fast food chains are simply the result of good business sense. McDonald's has very much grown a conscience in the UK over the past few years, I can't say if it's the same anywhere else in the world.
