            @Miss B: If they cared about their customers why not promote a purely salad based meal deal instead of this $5.95 bigmac meal with an extra cheeseburger which is 1300 calories? Fast food needs to be shut down. It is a health risk to the public.

          okay..but most of the time and cases it's cause people eat rubbish all the time and don't work it off.

          dont give them any more further excuses for their laziness.

          Totally. I go to my doctor and he tells me I have diabetes. I said “I know, it runs in the family”. He says, “nobody runs in your family!”

        No it's not lack of self control, it's the food choices Australians are being presented which is the issue. The food the fast food restaurants offer are all highly refined, processed, calorie dense and contains very little fibre, vitamins and minerals. The poor person eating this food will consume 1000 calories and still be hungry. It is like alcohol, the worse to drink is whisky which is very high in alcohol and causes many problems for people, then you have a less dilute source of alcohol which has some benefits such as wine, then you have beer, then you have light beer which if people decided to use as their alcohol source would not become a problem as the volume they would have to drink would be too great for them to become a drunkard or develop an alcohol problem.

        It is the same with food, people need to eat plant based whole foods that are not calorie dense. Eat potatoes, Corn, brown rice and you can not get fat off these foods as they fill the stomach before you consume excess calories. The foods are full of vitamins and minerals and will improve your health. Avoid all fast food, meat, eggs, dairy, processed foods and anything with added oils and fat.

        Just like drinking a quart of whisky is more enjoyable than drinking a quart of light beer, one poses very little problems while the other will destroy you and it's exactly the same with food, consume natural calorie dilute food that fills your stomach. Please listen people, 75% of Australians are overweight or obese. Heart disease and obesity related illness are the main causes of death in our country, please to the OP and others who post these fast food specials stop posting them as you are contributing to the early deaths of millions of people.

        • +2

          So it's all good if you're not on track to being obese yeah? All in moderation right, as others have mentioned it only becomes a problem when people go out of control with these foods

          • @pln: No, nobody should ever eat these foods. The foods cause lipotoxicity in the person. There are many monkeys in Asia who were normal weight and were given as much as they wanted on their normal diet and never became overweight but when fed junk food they became horridly obese.

            You can see here how fat monkeys become when given junk food https://www.dogonews.com/2017/5/27/thailands-famous-macaque-… people have a brain large enough to know not to eat these foods but some people it is very small and others with the influence of media convince them it's ok to eat these foods, it is not. Do not ever eat it.

        lack of self control is.

        Most of the population is stressed from over work and lack of sleep and self-control behaves like a finite quantity - if you are stressed and overworked it is very difficult to make good decisions.

    • +3

      Cheeseburgers are the solution

    • Bigger problem is macas meat taste. The sugar, and flavours in the bun masks how bad it tastes… try a macas patty just by itself and see if you can keep it down.

    • +4

      I lost a whole lot of weight on a calorie controlled diet while still eating maccas. Mostly because mcdonalds is usually incredibly accurate on the amount of calories in their food (unlike a regular restaurant or cooking at home), so I never went over my limit.

      I've since put back on that weight (and more) because I pay zero attention to what I eat and don't exercise. That's what really causes obesity.

      • I've done the same. I was on 2-5(fast two days) diet and on my fasting days, I could have a filet of fish from maccas for lunch as part of my strict calorie controlled diet for that day. Worked perfectly fine

      • Try 8-16 fasting, you'll lose 10% of your body weight in a month.

    • I don't have a problem with it… 🤔

  • +11

    • +17

      Mine's ready now…

      Actually I can get it for lunch today basically. 3 for $3 meal and a $3 McClassics burger.

      • $3 McClassic burger + free drink from student edge + free fries from survey, do this twice.

        • Only if they don't count the latter two as part of the "one offer only" policy :(.

          • @aileron: $3 McClassic + student edge drink then $3 McClassic+ survey fries, you stills get small McClassic meal + McClassic burger for $6

      • But that's $0.05 more.

        • +2

          but this way you get it now :)

          If you buy it with your 28 Degrees card and have price protection, you could claim the 5 cents back in 36 days time.

      • +1

        It's Not KOSHER to mix Milk+Meat

        • +2

          Put the cheese to the side and have it an hour later after the meat. Plus I don’t think the meat is kosher in the first place. Oy Vey!

          • @Lizard Spock: Cheese has already merged w/ the meat
            (To fact-check take along a magnifier)

            I wonder if Macca-Meat is Kosher in .IL?

            • +2

              @IVI: Probs not. Apparently Israel is one of the least religious countries in the word

              • @Lizard Spock: Likely so… but that wouldn't stop any number of Orthodox organisations there (incl'g powerful political parties) from insisting that a[n int'l] co. pay for Inspection services, to insure Kosher food meets their standards.

                "When I was a lad…" [in another land], many, many food products carried small symbols indicating that one or more of the several Kosher certification companies had inspected the makers' facilities, etc. (perhaps regularly) to do the same.

                Of course, such services aren't free… So, a small portion of each such product's price would go to the certifying co's.

                It's not -totally- unlike a business paying "protection" to a gang, except the amounts paid (per shelf-item) was very small, rather than a huge one… and makers only need to "pay up" if they want to enable observant Jews to buy their food products. Beside being optional, Certifying co. services provide an inspection service, that could possibly turn-up useful info useful to product makers.

                (It's a business decision whether or not to participate).

                More recently, I see more Halal symbols than Kosher in AU.

                (In fairness, I don't buy a very wide range of products, & I'm pretty sure, that SA has more Muslims than Jews…?)

    • +7

      $5.95 is too much for a Big Mac, Cheeseburger, Small Fries and Small Drink?

      IMO that's an incredible deal. Big Mac meals are around the $10 mark normally.

      • -8

        Yup…

        • First, Macca's lawyers don't let OzB use their logo image (How stingy is that?)

        • Red Meat's LESS healthy than White

        • White BunBread's less so than, eg, Coles 7-seed bread: $3 f 800g

        (That's ONLY way I'm a "White Supremist" ;~)

        • Fries have grease/oil [any Trans Fat?]

        (Nudge 'em to replace pot. w/ salad + olive oil)

        • Sugary drinks ADD UP to incr Diabetes & Obesity

        • Cost-Compare it to a Home-Made sandwich, you designed yourself

        • You're more independent (in mind & what you decide to eat) with DIY food

        YMMV [eg, w/ your DNA & biome]

        …Other than these, I guess Maccas provides kids jobs [& free Macca food?], but so does Subway…

    We are brainwashed from a young age that McDonalds is a treat - I'm not sure why - perhaps it hails from a time when there were few other options, such as a greasy fish n chip shop.

      Checked all the ingredients in your weekly groceries lately? You will find almost all of this in there too.

      Just remember, Macca's is the ONLY establishment that lists EVERY ingredient. No other fast food place does OR restaurant. At least you know what you're getting. Too bad I can't see how much sugar is in my favoruite Thai, Indian or Asian restaurant. Taste so good, I wonder why. Every dish probably has 8 teaspoons of sugar not to mention all the crap. We'll never know though.

      Next time you're in the supermarket, check one thing for me. Sugar content. Every 4g is 1 teaspoon. You will find that what you think was healthy, is not.

        "Just remember, Macca's is the ONLY establishment that lists EVERY ingredient. No other fast food place does OR restaurant."

        ….and they're all crap!

        I must be missing your point, I'm trying to steer people to the multitude of real burger places out there vs Macca's crap, you're banging on about sugar in supermarket food.

        Different debate dude!

        • What makes your "real burger places" real? Where's their ingredient lists?

          Fair point on the sugar, it was an added extra. Didn't think that would blow your mind, but it did.

          • -3

            @RocketSwitch: I'm not going to try and defend the burgers I eat. To me it's not a debate. If you want to eat Macca's poopoo, it's all yours chief!

            The negs I got for my above comment show the crowd has spoken.

            Poopoo burgers for all!

        • +1

          do you think a real burger place wil have ingredients any different to this? Im sure a quality burger join will use mayo with preservatives, buns with fortified vitamins or cheese with emulsifiers or sauces with a lot of sugar, oil and artificial colours. Im not saying burgers are healthy; all mcdonald food is unlikely to be particularly healthy but mcdonalds isnt the exception. All processed and even restaurant food is far less quality and healthy than what you make at home because their incentive is to make food that tastes good.
