McDonald’s restaurants are the very epitome of poor health, with their McNuggets most notably containing chemicals used in breast implants and silly putty. So why have the Olympic games officials adopted the restaurant chain as their official restaurant of the Olympics?
Considering the Olympic games represent some of the most conditioned athletes across the globe, it seems quite bizarre that the face of the entire event would be that of Ronald McDonald.
With the media frenzy surrounding the Olympic games, it’s easy to see why McDonald’s continues to be a major sponsor (dishing out cash for over 35 years). A massive marketing opportunity is presented to the company that involves aligning itself with a ‘healthy’ and fit event. In fact, McDonald’s is reaping the benefits as even some of the most decorated Olympic finalists are chomping down on their disease-linked frankenburgers. It was reported that ‘the most highly decorated Olympian’ Michael Phelps gorged himself at McDonald’s after winning a gold medal at the Olympics.
Phelps and fellow gold medalist Ricky Berens reportedly ate a toxic feast of two Quarter Pounders with cheese, one six-piece McNugget (each of which contains 7 different ingredients to compose the fake chicken ‘meat’), a medium McFlurry, and two medium french fries.

Great news for McDonald’s, bad news for viewers.
McDonald’s fast food has been linked in scientific research to depression, with those who ate fast food 51 percent more likely to be depressed than those consuming very little or none of the food.
This article first appeared at Natural Society, an excellent resource for health news and vaccine information. McDonald’s fast food has been linked in scientific research to depression, with those who ate fast food 51 percent more likely to be depressed than those consuming very little or none of the food.
McDonald’s has also been heavily criticized for including ‘pink slime’ into their products, which is essentially scrap meat drenched in ammonium hydroxide. And that’s really not the worst of it.
Taking another look at the highly popular McNuggets, it’s easy to see why McDonald’s food items contain some of the most concerning chemicals in the entire food industry. The kind that athletes and viewers looking to live a healthy lifestyle should avoid at all costs.

McNuggets contain a large list of ingredients, including autolyzed yeast extract (similar to MSG), dimethylpolysiloxane (a type of silicone being phased out as a breast implant substance due to safety concern), safflower oil (often genetically modified), and of course butylhydroquinone (derived from petroleum to ‘preserve freshness’).
So why is it that McDonald’s is the official restaurant of the Olympics? It seems that the corporation is desperate to attach to athletic events in order to push itself as a health-conscious chain, when in reality it is likely one of the largest contributors to the breeding of disease in the United States.

But of course their executive likes to think differently. In a press release on how McDonald’s ‘cares about your health’ that sought to piggyback on the success of the Olympic games, one exec states:

Customers recognize McDonald’s as a responsible, trusted brand that stays current with their lifestyles.Could it be any more obvious just how little this company actually cares about your health? McDonald’s has no place being the official restaurant of any event or organization supposedly representing the face of health and fitness across the globe.

Perhaps McDonalds is used punitively rather than voluntarily. For example, when a McChampion makes a normal, human motion, he/she is McPunished by forced entry of McDungwiches and bad-potato-emulation sticks.
It is also possible that the McDullards appearing to be consumed by champions is simply something else dressed as garbage. A dog-turd, for example, could be wrapped in McDonalds paper and people would never know something far superior was hidden inside.
What a silly post. What is it exactly in a McDonalds burger or fries that is "unhealthy"??? I suspect you are clueless and worse will refuse to even attempt an answer. Is it the bread? Maybe the hamburger. Or could it be the cheese? I know it's the pickle.
I think it's the ammonia pink-slime burgers that make them unhealthy.
If they had ammonia pink-slime burgers then you would have to prove that was unhealthy. Since they do not your statement is incorrect on it's face.
its true mcdonalds isn't healthy to eat on a daily basis however celebrating and enjoying the entertainment of McDonalds every now and then its just fine.
good on you for standing up for mcshit. i'm sure they'd stand up for you in your time of need
Hmmm. A McDonalds executive is trolling.
Who is the clown commenting as if he or she knows anything on what's nutritious .. Is it the bread? Probably .. Due to the low nutrient value of "white bread" .. Full of preservatives to store in high quantities .. Is it the meat .. Yes and probably the most disastrous to one's health .. Inhumanly slaughtered .. Sick and diseased meat sprayed and dyed in order to retain a "healthy" look before being cooked in high temperatures producing toxic carcinogenic compounds .. How about the pickles .. I could only imagine what the lowly slave labor does to the pickles ... Yeah .. And lastly Einstein .. I don't think full bred race horses ever eat something as disgusting as McDonald's .. And yet our Olympic athletes profess they eat this shit .. I dont think so ..
Incredible. You actually believe white bread is bad for you? 90% of the families in the U.S. eat white bread and we set a new record high for long life. Meat is bad? All meat, red meat or what, exactly? 98% of Americans eat meat. Most of us avoid those silly west coast la la land fads. If you don't want to eat meat by all means follow your own wishes but don't try to force your fad diet on the rest of us.
By the way, you forgot to express your incredible knowledge about the cheese. Tell us Einstein, is it safe to eat cheese or is that not in your fad diet?
Be honest. Your hatred of McDonalds has nothing to do with their food and you are unable to say what is wrong with their food. You hate McDonalds because their successful capitalist business doesn't fit your left wing agenda.
I'm impressed. The idea that "living" longer equates to good health is amusing. An extended death is not the same as living.
White bread with synthetic nutrition is not good, no matter how you try to tie it into something nonrelated.
Meat eating- Hey! I eat meat. But, I eat grass fed, locally raised beef and chicken. Not junk that is so highly processed that you do not know where on the animal it came from (pink slime, anyone). Not all animal products are the same.
Cheese! I love cheese and I even know how to make it. It starts with fresh milk and time. McDonalds does not use cheese. They use a "processed cheese food". I don't know how to make this as it starts with a chemistry set.
Some day, you might learn that there is a difference between surviving and thriving, existing and living. Until such a time (and after), I wish you well.
"Be honest. Your hatred of McDonalds has nothing to do with their food and you are unable to say what is wrong with their food. You hate McDonalds because their successful capitalist business doesn't fit your left wing agenda."
Wow, you really ARE a McDonalds executive.
I don't hate Mcdonalds and I'll admit to eating there on a rare occasion and honestly if they could prove that their food was the best that is available and was so nutritious that we would all be rushing to Macs to get healthy. What a happy world that would be. We all know, unless you've been living under a rock, that Mcdonalds is not a healthy choice
"Phelps and fellow gold medalist Ricky Berens reportedly ate a toxic feast of two Quarter Pounders . . ."
The report you cite does not mention Phelps eating the crap or being there:
"Swimmer Conor Dwyer and relay-mate Ricky Berens decided to blow up a McDonald's with a 4,610-calorie order to celebrate helping Michael Phelps win his 19th medal."
All of you are braindamaged morons of society.
Good food still tastes good when it is cold. Have you ever tried to eat cold McVomits?
Ahhh! The magic "grass fed, locally raised beef". Do you REALLY believe grass fed, locally raised beef is healthy and grain fed beef from the next state over is unhealthy??? Can you be so stupid? What you are espousing is your food biases and fads, nothing more, nothing less.
If you really believe McDonalds is not a healthy choice then prove it. What, exactly, at McDonalds is different from what we all eat at home? It's just food. Don't be sucked in by superstition that there is some "magic" grass fed foo out there.
Calm down Ronald, McDonald's is not a healthy food choice. And when did eating whole foods become a fad? I grew up in the mid west, lived on the East Coast, and now reside on the west coast. I'm all American and been everywhere like Jonny Cash. Throughout this great place we used to call America the land, the animals, and plants are being contaminated by corporations that have the bottom line to account for. Real American's!! From America(not Mexico,China, or whatever third world shit hole you come from) want the old school traditional American foods from health happy animals and plants on our dinner plates. We want English speaking people working in our stores to greet us and ask how the day is going, we want to enjoy working with OUR brothers!! We want the gangland thugs out of our kids faces. If your a white man, you need to listen to your heritage country music and dig deep in your tired soul. Our great men of this country built this place so you could prosper, not the Mexican, Asian, etc. if you disagree with what im sayin, I hope you will continue to eat the shit food that's available at places like McD's and die!!! So I can still enjoy what little good food is available. When all you little pencil dicks fags lose your corporate positions and are hiding in whatever hole you can find from the gangsters that have over run this country I'm going to be gunning you bitchs down. Cause the old school Americans are the only people who know how to make this place work the way it used to work as the power house of the world. I shit on your exhistence.
I think Ronald needs to look up the facts about Mcdonalds or most food we eat period. Watch food inc and get informed instead of being spoon fed information from people with better things to do on this post.
"Watch food inc"!!! Bwahahaha! Did you really think that was real? It was a phony, made up, cheap shot pile of BS. You need to take antio-gullible pills.
Your problem is you have been spoon fed bias and fads for so long you don't know up from down. What, exactly is wrong with hamburger??? Sure if you are into the vegetarian fad you don't like meat but if you are normal and eat meat what is wrong with hamburger? Or cheese? or bread? What??? You just don't get it do you? Someone told you McDonalds was bad and you sucked it up and now believe it. Well, put up or shut up. WHAT, exactly, is bad? And how many big macs does it take before it kills me?
Enjoy your McFood, if you feel inclined to eat that way. For the rest of you that care about these things, let your actions speak louder than your words. Consider that you should invite friends over for dinner more often, and let them TASTE how much better locally sourced, freshly prepared food really is when compared to fast food. I suspect most people know that they are eating sub-par meals, but they are considering price and convenience (short-term) over the health benefits of eating fresh/real food (long-term). Praise Bob.
Anon 6:47 is obviously a disinfo agent. Most of the fast food out there esp mcdonalds is genetically modified food. If you even want to call it food.
Because they paid the most bribes!
Can you really tell the difference between your fad locally sourced food and food from the next city over or the next county or state? Amazing! Your problem is you have been fed this BS about food so convincingly that you now have lost your ability to see reality. You are a fad food junkie and are clueless to it.
So, no takers? All you smart know it all people can't even tell me what it is in a McFood burger that is going to kill me? Come on! I challenge you. How many McFries does it take to kill me? Surely with strong convictions you seem to have you must know the answer. Prove you aren't mind numbed robots simply believing what you've been told. I find your fad diet believing GMO scare tactic spreading sub-par.
Dude, your clueless. Transfats alone will kill you. Do you not have a mother? Go ask your mom if MC'D's is a good healthy meal. Transfats is the only one im giving you for free. Your going to have to pick up a book and practice reading. Better yet, don't pick one up!! Haha!! I wish death upon you, hahaha! Never in my life have I witnessed such a dumb ass!! Hahaha!
Oh no! Say it isn't so! Trans fats will kill me. And yet I am 69 years old and have eaten margarine all my life and I'm in good health. So when do these trans fats kill me???? I think it is you who is clueless. Do you believe everything Mayor Bloomberg says? I thinkl if you really had any knowledge about food you wouldn't need to call people names. I think you fear discussing this issue because you know so little about it.
This guy is Ronald and the happy meals have gone to his head so keep eating your Mcchicken slime and we wont have to listen to your ignorant claims when your stomach and your intestines are incapable of processing this garbage. I seriously don't know anyone who would defend the fast food industry unless they had a financial interest. So congratulations! you are one of a kind. A new sub species. Do you plan on procreating?
Defend the fast food industry? Au contraire, mon frère I am debunking the crazy food fads of the perennially stupid food bigots. If the hamburger in my McDonalds is the same as the hamburger I cook at home then how is it "garbage"? Oh! That's right. You can't answer that question and yet it never even sparks a little skepticism that you have been fed BS all your life.
This discussion has been very entertaining. A hearty "Thanks" to all for your input. I would just like to share that I know how it feels to be 'toxic' with chemicals and non-food items that are used to produce many items that people eat. Some descriptors that come to mind would be 'stodgy, lethargic, fatigued, low-energy, down, compulsive' etc. And now I know how it feels to consistetly eat quality food that is free of all those chemicals and non-food products. It is like getting a whole new lease on life. I didn't change my eating habits to lose weight, though that happened and I'm thrilled. I was just convinced there had to be a better way, and I thank God I found it. It pays to know what is in the products you are putting in your body. That way you can make an informed decision about whether you want to tolerate the outcome. I don't want to live forever, I just want quality of life while I'm here.
If it helps you to believe that you were eating "toxins" but now there are no chemicals in your food then enjoy. It is amazing what your mind can be made to believe. However whatever you eat is a complex mixture of hundreds of chemicals, even those "quality" foods you think you have discovered. If your food biases make you happy then I wish you well. Who needs science and facts when you have comfortable biases to believe in.
Thanks for the well wishes Sleepy Mr. Sheeple :o)
You are welcome Mr food biases and doesn't know it.
Two Words: Gary Yourofsky. If you really want to know what is in the animal derived food you eat take a look for yourself. If you even care a little bit, the truth is extremely accessable. I don't understand how someone can own a computer with internet capabilities, and not even research, when you can just take a look. Milk has pus in it, not to mention more estrogen than soy milk does. Male baby pigs get their scrotums cut off without anasthesia. Male baby chicks go straight to the grinder while alive. If you want to know the ingredients in McDonald's food, go to Google and ask. Even if you think animals don't matter, maybe you'll care about what you are puposefully doing to your body after some serious self-education. Don't trust the words of others? Try visiting aa slaughterhouse or a refinery plant. You decide. Anyway, take a look.

Gary Yourofsky, The guy who is opposed to using animals for food, is your trusted source for what is in animal products??? Are you serious?
I know what's in McDonalds food and so does everyone. All food produced and sol in this country is required to have a label telling you what is in it. There isn't anything in McDonalds hamburger that isn't in all hamburger. There isn't anything in McDonalds bread that isn't in all the bread, and so on. It's all just food. You are either brain washed and don't know you have been sold a bunch of crap about McDonalds and other food or you are incredibly ignorant, perhaps both.
To the guy who said "What a silly post. What is it exactly in a McDonalds burger or fries that is "unhealthy"??? I suspect you are clueless and worse will refuse to even attempt an answer. Is it the bread? Maybe the hamburger. Or could it be the cheese? I know it's the pickle. "
You are believing the fallacy that all bread is the same thing. TRUE that the big mac is made up of bread, lettuce, sauce, meat, pickle, but what are these made of? They are full of genetically modified ingredients, ingredients that are banned in many countries and crazy shit you cannot even pronounce. Ingredients used in silly putty are used in chicken nuggets.
Go to McDonalds official website for your country and read the ingredients list! I dare you, you will be shocked! It is the lowest of the low. GMO grain fed meat, GMO grains, refined salt, fluoridated water, sodas, diet sodas, pink slime (google it), BPA, chips that grow no mold when left at room temperature for a year or more!
Search "The Truth About Fast Food – McDonalds" on my website to see a video breaking down the toxic ingredients in a big mac and other immoral practices by McDonalds.
What this anonymous guy doesn't realize when he says " If the hamburger in my McDonalds is the same as the hamburger I cook at home then how is it "garbage"?" is that the quality of the food he eats at home is as bad as Mcdonalds, that almost all processed foods contain the same garbage that is in McDonalds. This is true! He just thinks it is a good thing.
Dude get it through your head that not all food is of equal quality. If the burger you are eating is the same as McDonalds then you need to get a higher quality source! Grass fed is better, cattle aren't designed to eat grains! Fool.
Go to the McDonalds website and read the ingredients list. How many of them are ingredients that are often GMO? The most commonly GM crops are corn, canola, cottonseed, soy, rice, potato, tomato. Oh would you look at that McDonalds is full of that, all of the oil they cook in is GM.
"If it helps you to believe that you were eating "toxins" but now there are no chemicals in your food then enjoy. It is amazing what your mind can be made to believe. However whatever you eat is a complex mixture of hundreds of chemicals, even those "quality" foods you think you have discovered."
The foods you eat contain ingredients you cannot pronounce. Real foods contain complex chemicals yes but these are naturally occurring and have health benefits. They are called vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fat, carbohydrates, medicinal compounds, antioxidants and other beneficial constituents.
This is the Big Mac sauce ingredients "Soybean Oil, Pickle Relish (Diced Pickles, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Sugar, Vinegar, Corn Syrup, Salt, Calcium Chloride, Xanthan Gum, Potassium Sorbate
[Preservative], Spice Extractives, Polysorbate 80), Distilled Vinegar, Water, Egg Yolks, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Onion Powder, Mustard Seed, Salt, Spices,
Propylene Glycol Alginate, Sodium Benzoate (Preservative), Mustard Bran, Sugar, Garlic Powder, Vegetable Protein (Hydrolyzed Corn, Soy and Wheat), Caramel
Color, Extractives of Paprika, Soy Lecithin, Turmeric (Color), Calcium Disodium EDTA (Protect Flavor)."
Go read the rest of the Big Mac ingredients, it is horrifying. Keep in mind the most commonly GM crops are corn, canola, cottonseed, soy, wheat, rice. You think that is better than homemade organic? I don't use that stuff, do you? If you made sauce from scratch would you use those things? You wouldn't.
Still think this is healthy? "It is amazing what your mind can be made to believe." You say it best.
