And here you thought McDonald's was evil


My best friend since Grade 5 shared this on Facebook recently.

Well, I totally disagree. McDonald's does make you fat: pigging out makes you fat. The nearest McDonald's is 484 km from Hay River, and the people here are alarmingly fat. And your correspondent, who eats McDonald's at least once a week when I live near one, has never gained any weight by it. A cheeseburger and small fries doesn't have more calories than my regular dinner, and it's not much more expensive, either. So quit blaming McDonald's.

Anyway, this isn't the blog for my frequent rants on why overeating makes you fat. The point is this:


That's totally awesome. Now what I'd like to see next is a study of residential rents in Big Macs per month. Also, I'd really like a McDonald's cheeseburger and small fries now. Did I mention the nearest McDonald's is 484 km away? Darn you, Free Exchange! Darn you to heck!
