Big Mac Lover

I have had the past two weeks off work and it's been terrific! Yesterday was my last day off work and I really wanted to end my vacation with a bang so I decided to get a big mac meal from McDonald's.

It's a weird and disturbing thrill of mine, but I love big macs and would eat them everyday if I didn't know it would kill me quickly. We try not to eat out, but when we do Tim does not want to go to McDonald's. So this was a treat for me. :)

I went online to see the nutritional facts for a big mac and found some very disturbing news about the big mac meal. Sad to say, this will not stop me from eating big macs but will keep me aware of what I am putting in my body.

These are the ingredients which complete the Big Mac

100% Beef Patty, Big Mac Bun, Pasteurized Process American Cheese, Big Mac Sauce, Lettuce, Pickle Slices, Onions
