Which is your dirty secret?
Mines a Zinger tower burger no fries and no drink but do like a McFlurry now and then

@BoredToday haven't you heard of moderation? Nobody is posting on here that they regularly eat at McDs etc.

I have a balanced and overall quite healthy diet. I don't smoke. Don't drink a lot. I enjoy an occasional meal from a fast food outlet. It's not going to kill me!

Rather be fat than be a gigantic bellend like bored. Maybe all the unnecessary anger and bile inside them over things that don’t affect them will kill them off come middle age.

Big Tasty is McDonalds best burger but it’s only a special.

Burger King XL double bacon cheeseburger is a beast, but their fries suck.

KFC is ok, but gravy is the only acceptable side. It’s a little pot of flavoury goodness

BoredToday "This type of food is disgusting - a pile of munure has more nutrients. Too many fat people because of this crap being readily available."

Well, actually McDonald's in particular has extremely high quality ingredients in their food ...

if you're having (say) a grilled chicken salad, chips and milk.

You're having better qaulity food than perhaps, a Chicken salad, crisps and milk from a supermarket...

And BoredToday I guess you never eat any form of processed food,a and only partake in organic, responsibly sourced fare?

Exactly
Processed food causes cancer
Make your own food
Healthy and no risk of becoming a fat ass

CatFaceCats · 15/07/2019 16:58

Oh just go away, you’re clearly bored today!
We love a family feast bucket here - Pepsi, gravy, corn and now a side of mash. Popcorn chicken for kids.
I will go change into my stretchy bottoms and then no-one wants dinner. I think I love KFC as it’s not local so a pain to get to (we don’t get any fancy food delivery service where I am!) so when we do get one, I really appreciate it!

CatFaceCats · 15/07/2019 16:58

Oh, and I’m 37 and weigh 9st.

Gooigi · 15/07/2019 17:03

I love KFC chicken fillets but the chips are a bit shit. Still haven't forgiven Mcdonalds for getting rid of the BBQ chicken burger.

All the Bug Macs in the world can't be worse for your insides than the stick up BoredToday's arse.

"Well you'll clearly a gigantic fat bell end.
Enjoy your heart attack."

OMG, can you see into my room?? Grin

No-one is going to have a heart attack from the occasional MaccyDs... do stop being so bloody dramatic... Hmm

BoredToday · 15/07/2019 17:05

Feeding your kids crap - Great!!
What's your height?
No point staying weight if there isn't weight or dress size for comparisons!

mushroomwall · 15/07/2019 17:07

Burger King whopper tastes homemade. It's my airport treat

CatFaceCats · 15/07/2019 17:11

My goodness, you are silly today aren’t you Hmm

TrendyNorthLondonTeen · 15/07/2019 17:14

@BoredToday u ok hun??

CaptainHammer · 15/07/2019 17:18

BoredToday is clearly bored today

Yabbers · 15/07/2019 17:26

Love a Burger King burger but hate their fries.

Love MdC fries, not a fan of their burgers.

KFC =Kentucky Fried Crap.

00100001 · 15/07/2019 17:46

"Feeding your kids crap - Great!!"

Please do share your weekly menu for you and your kids, as you seem to be so much better at eating than the rest of us....

BoredToday · 15/07/2019 17:54

Hi, I'm OK
But I can't believe so many people still eat this rubbish
The more it is normalised, the more people will see no harm in eating it
It's as good as poison
Fast food joints need to be boycotted
But I have perhaps been too invested in this, if people want to eat crap then that's up to them
Also, I do have an issue with obese / fat people - burden on resources

00100001 · 15/07/2019 18:01

You are misinformed.
What is awful about eating a grilled chicken salad, carrot sticks and a bottle of water?

NiceRadFem · 15/07/2019 18:09

I like the wrap of the day and the Frappuccino imitation at mcD. Am I sad?

VetOnCall · 15/07/2019 18:10

Always McDonald's for me, haven't been to BK or KFC in years. I'm in Canada and was overjoyed to discover that McD's do their hot fudge sundaes here, I was gutted when they discontinued them in the UK Grin I probably go just for one of those once a month. If I'm having food it's always a Big Mac, medium fries and a Sprite, probably once every 3-4 months.

For the food police records, I'm 37, 5'7, 8st 10ish, eat healthily most of the time and do a shit ton of hiking, running and rock climbing every week but still love an occasional McD's so 😛

ChihuahuaMummy1 · 15/07/2019 18:28

Still haven't forgiven KFC for discontinuing their sour cream and chive dip 🤬

3luckystars · 15/07/2019 19:18

I wrote to mc donalds about the hot fudge sundae, maybe I should start a petition about it.

They are still using the same sauce on coffees so why did they stop? It was THE BEST thing on the menu.

CigarsofthePharoahs · 15/07/2019 19:57

Burger King - bacon double cheeseburger meal.
McD - depends if they've got any interesting seasonal things. If not, big Mac.
KFC - nah, their chips are terrible.
