Why do people still keep complaining that McDonalds is bad for you? What about KFC and Hungry Jacks/Burger King? Is it because McDonalds is a successful business and others don’t like to see them succeed?

They have done everything they can to bring in a healthy diet- yogurts, salads, wraps, cooking in better vegetable oils etc.

Why s there still whingeing? If people think it is bad then don’t eat it. Don’t keep going on about it. It is not like you are forced to eat there.

Most simply put, it is because McDonald's is the biggest and most successful. They're an easy target to make an example out of. However, I agree that they have taken great strides to making their menu more healthy.
The deal is, the USA as a whole is overweight. Mainly it is due to our lifestyle and eating habits, but nobody wants to say that, they want to blame someone. McDonald and all other fast food joints are easy targets. The truth is that it is still the buyers decision on what they want to eat. They know its unhealthy, yet they still buy it.
What else is interesting is that the real culprits are actually sit-down restaurants. Look at their nutritional values, and you'll think twice before eating there again. But, it's just easier to blame McDonald's, so in the true spirit of American media, the easiest target is the culprit.
If people want to lose weight, they should stop eating out every meal and start to take control of their own diet, not their favorite joints menu.

ITA i think everybody by now knows that fast food can be bad for u if u eat it a lot, but why is McDonald's the main one that is targeted all fast food can be bad for u not just McDonald's actually i noticed that with weight watcher points McDonald's is actually pretty low for fast food points, a big mac being 13 points while a triple whopper at burger king is 31 points, the point is McDonald's ain't the only fast food place out there and yes fast food can be bad for u but if only if u eat TOO MUCH of it, i ate fast food while on a diet and still lost weight so it can't be that bad, like u said no one is forced to eat there

Basically, they are all fast food companies selling crap food. KFC may cop it because they were te original.

Also, all that money you spend at any of them ends up outside your local community. Whereas if you spend stuff at the local hamburger shop, it is usually own by a local person, who usually buys their stuff from other local suppliers. So all the profits are staying local and going into other businesses.

You're absolutely right. All the fast food places are bad for you - even if they have tried to add healthy selections to their menus. It's just easier to blame someone else, rather than taking responsibility. And - we will never lose hope that one day, the things that taste good, will also be good for us!!

Because people need someone to point their fingers at because they're overweight.

It is just as simple as not eating it. I myself used to work at McDonalds and all I ever had from there is their iced coffee's.
