Re: McDonalds Detox

I would suggest that you not eat at McDonalds.

Re: McDonalds Detox

could be the addatives in their scrambled eggs have you seen what is in the eggs on their website?
this is the scrambled eggs.

Pasteurized whole eggs with sodium acid pyrophosphate, citric acid and monosodium phosphate (added to preserve color), nisin (preservative). Prepared with Liquid Margarine: Liquid soybean oil, water, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, salt, hydrogenated cottonseed oil, soy lecithin, mono-and diglycerides, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate (preservatives), artificial flavor, citric acid, vitamin A palmitate, beta carotene (color).

By the way you got a carb for them
and this is your sausage with another carb

It did. 4 if you count the caramel colour - that would be sweet stuff.

After reading that list of ingredients for the egg stuff - I am going to say some extra thanks for the real egg I'll scramble tomorrow. That was sure a whole truckload of transfats and preservatives.

Hope you are feeling better Hummer. You could have reacted to any of that stuff. Some people react negatively to BHA for instance

Yes I do realize why..i just find it funny that they have to make sure that people understand there are eggs in their eggs.

Though it is McD's I guess there could always be a good change there are no eggs in the eggs so they have to remind us!

Re: McDonalds Detox

DISGUSTING! I made the same mistake, thinking the eggs were really eggs, silly me. The only safe thing to order at Mc Donalds is a bottle of water or maybe a cup of coffee (who knows they probably add sugar or potato starch or something to their beans!) Stick with the bottled water LOL or stay away!!

Re: McDonalds Detox

I used to work at Hardee's in high school and college. Back then we used real eggs to make scrambled eggs and the eggs for the sandwiches. What in the world happened to cooking with real food?

To answer your last question - all of the ingredients in everything you eat have to be on the list of foods acceptable for induction - neither the eggs or sausage are legal because of the sugars, milk & other non-induction-legal ingredients. (I am assuming that you are on extended induction since that is what your profile says...if you were in/past OWL Rung 2, and had added milk on that rung, the milk would then be OK.) Hope this helps! Best wishes for continued success

Re: McDonalds Detox

I didn't plan very well for our trip down to Florida at Christmas...we stopped in at McD's, and I had the same thing - eggs and sausage. I knew the risks going in, knew the ingredients, but I didn't have anything else and we were running low on cash. I figured it'd be better then eating pancakes and biscuits.

I learned my lesson when an hour later I threw it all up on the shoulder of I-95.

Fun times...
