McDonalds puts sugar in their french fries, I recently
head on NPR. Apparently
their sales increased slightly when they started doing that. It's consistent
with their tendency to limit our diet to salt, fat, and sugar. In reality, I
guess we do it to ourselves, since we don't have to eat there. The only meal I
occasionally take at the Golden Arches, is breakfast, since they do, oddly
enough, have pretty passable coffee.
McDonald's ALSO adds a "beef extract" to their fries!
Some Hindus and vegetarians were quite upset to find out.
But the McDonald's spokesperson said, "We NEVER said that our fries were
vegetable."
