I am all in favor of eating whatever you want. I was not saying don't do it. I was merely reporting what was posted about mcdonald's recently. I don't eat cool whip either -but if it is for someone else - have at it.
I have not eaten at a mcdonald's in over 15 or so years so it is not my thing in general. But I don't eat hardly any fast food except on road trips once a year that I have to take with students. I take my risks with my own cured meats.
I worked at a mcdonald's once when I was a freshman in college -I only lasted about 3 days before I quit.
