Please.

We know McDonald's thinks it's the best at advertising and getting people to buy products... but they really want people to think there's something healthy about this new salad they're hawking?

From the ad...

wow, McDonald's® has really done it with their new Fruit & Walnut Salad. it's just what a girl wants. a heavenly combination of fresh, crisp apples...juicy, seedless grapes...creamy, low-fat yogurt and sweet candied walnuts. and the best part? it's perfect for breakfast, lunch or snacktime, so i can get a "fruit buzz"...whenever. finally, fresh fruit is at McDonald's! i don't think it gets any better than that.

This new fruit and walnut sallad promises one thing: 310 calories and 38 net carbs.

That's more calories than their small french fry and 10 more carbs, to boot!

And who in their right mind wants to eat a 'healthy' fruit salad with candied walnuts?

I think there's more to clowning around at McDonalds than the man with the floppy red shoes.

Having finally seen 'Supersize Me' recently I can safely say I will NEVER go near McDonalds again.... the bloodwork of the presenter was truly appalling and yet so many people seem to think they can eat that sort of crap day in and day out....

At least on this WOE I am enjoying cooking meals for me - and I know EXACTLY what is in every mouthful.
