    You buy O'briens and take it over to the lads in Maccers.


    Or the only other kinda sorta option that isnt great and over no nuitritional benefit is you eat the salad without the dressing, but theres no protein or anything to benefit you, other than knocking you your cal-content for the day a few notches.

    3 or 4 plain hamburgers, throw them all into the one bun (dispose of the rest) and chomp on down.

    I remember when I was in Paris after my LC they were selling burgers for 75c in MaccyD's!! That was just TOO good to pass up.


    Ah... how much actual meat is in a maccers hamburger? Its all ground up fats etc isn't it?

    250kcal, 14g protein, 30g carbs, 8g fat. I would imagine a high proportion of the carbs are contained in the bun.

    Throw away the bun, throw in another burger or two and you've a decent enoguh meal there.

    The nutritional info for McDonalds food is also on the back of the sheet on the tray you get when you eat in. I had a Big Tasty last night and I think it was 890 calories but it wasn't very "tasty" at all. A Double Quarter Pounder has less calories but more protein and is nicer.

    The grilled chicken caesar salad in McD's is actually really tasty. Can't remember the exact calories, but it was less than 300 AFAIK. The caesar dressing is Paul Newman's light caesar and is yum. I know it's not as healthy as a salad you'd make yourself, but tastes pretty fresh for a 'bought salad' and is a pretty good alternative to a burger.

    I always have chicken, lettuce and tomato on brown bread in O'Briens. Don't like mayo anyway so it's not an issue for me.
