This is just one reason why I haven’t eaten at McDonalds in over 15 years.

I’m not surprised either. If you were the president of McDonald’s, wouldn’t you want to cut down on losses due to food spoilage too? Your average consumer doesn’t care about preservatives so much, after all. Even if it does goodness knows what to your body.

However, it’s quite a leap to then pin preservatives on our obesity problem because they “don’t break down.” You mean it doesn’t have anything to do with calories? Seriously, now? I’ve seen lots of people lose weight eating fast food, and I’ve seen lots of people lose weight that they accumulated by eating fast food…AND, I’ve seen people get fat eating healthy, too! It’s all about calories in vs. calories out, and turning this whole issue with preservatives into a weight loss scheme smells fishy to me. The rest of her points are valid, but that last one irked me a little.

Sadly, it doesn’t surprise me. (Actually I think I’m a little more surprised that that lady has held on to these things for so long!) But it does make me feel good that I don’t eat fast food.

Whoa. That’s just NASTY! We rarely eat fast food, but we DO eat it. Hmmm…
