McDonalds anyone?

I've just watched a Penn & Teller Bull**** episode 804 or 805 which is all about Fast Food.
There's a great bit where they serve fast Food to some people and ask them to score it and how many calories are in it.
They then serve exactly the same food in a different way but tell them it's from a restaurant and the scores are totally different.
 
Silly thing is a lot of restaurants serve worse food, in terms of kcals and nutrient content!
 
Did you know that a big mac has a gurken in it just so it falls under the legal limit of sugar percentage content to not be classed as a dessert.

Really? I'm suppose to be confusing a hell of a lot calories on order from the doctor, I might stock up on Big Macs. :)
 
Gherkins are great. Should always be in burgers or even meat sandwiches. Also mandatory in tuna Mayo.

It's also just a silly myth, how can anyone fall for it. Just think about it for two seconds.

McDonalds in UK seem to have limited menus nowadays. When specials come out throughout the year its a Quarter pounder Deluxe or something or another with bacon, a US 'state' special burger for a week.
I had a wasabi double fillet-o-fish burger in Hong Kong. It was actually quite nice.

I usually have a Big mac or hamburger, but the delis are sometimes okay.
The Chicken sandwich is vile though. (The KFC zinger is superior :D)

Oh, and they should bring back Root beer!
 
I work at McDonalds.

I can tell you after 8 hours of pulling Macs, pickles are the last thing you wanna be smelling (doesn't leave your hands for ages!)
