Live Fast [Food] Die Young!
Man, what have I been eating!?
I don't really eat fast food that often but then there are times when I eat it almost everyday.
This morning, with a craving for McMuffins (2 for the price of 1), I decided to look up the nutritional information. First I stopped off to see what JitB has contained within the mini packages of goodness. One word - Geez-us! I always thought of Jack in the Box the "healthier" of them all.
Bacon 'n' Cheese Ciabatta Burger:
* Calories: 1120
* Fat: 76g
That's 117% of your daily fat intake and 56% of your calories. That's without soda a fries (I never get either).
With a regular soda and large fries (you know you get them!)
Large fries:
* Calories: 530
* Fat: 25
Soda 20oz (Coke):
* Calories: 170
* Fat: 0
2x Ketchup
* Calories: 20
* Fat: 0
Totaled that's:
* Calories: 1840
* Fat: 101
That's 155% of your daily fat intake and 92% of your calories. Fuck me, now wonder the only people you see in fast food places are chubbers!
Granted, this is the worst of the worst but you know, some folk out there order x2 of this.
I had a Big Mac the other day, it I quite enjoyed it. It was the first time I've had one in about 5 years and will be the last for a good number to come.
