Wow, Maybe this has been going on for a while, I don't know... I don't frequent Mcdonald's all that often. But yesterday, I took my kids to the good old golden arches for lunch!

As we're eating and laughing and just enjoying lunch together, I noticed the nutritional information label posted (in LARGE PRINT, I might add) right smack dab on the side of my fries.

Ok, I agree that it is completely MY responsibility and my choice when ordering whether or not I want to "supersize" my meal. But really, do I need to read mid-way through lunch that I've just injested my entire caloric allottment for the day in ONE sitting!!

I mean YES, I should have been the responsible consumer and asked for a nutritional guide BEFORE ordering. But, let's be realistic here... I KNOW IT'S NOT GOOD FOR ME! But, for the love of Pete, Don't ruin my junk food fest by plastering the actual stats on my quarter pounder with cheese!

I know, I know, they are doing it so they can promote a healthier image and they are pretending that they care about my arteries by telling me my supersize fries have 30 grams of fat. OR maybe they did it so Mr. and Mrs. Obese can't sue for eating a Big Mac every day of their life.

Anyway, it was a total BUZZKILL for me. I enjoy being blissfully ignorant while consuming my junk food!

then again--maybe that's the point!
