No. They do have some healthier options but mostly it’s all garbage.

Read “Fast Food Nation” for a read look into just how bad it is. Fast food chains cause problems that go way beyond unhealthy food.

No, but everyone deserves a good fat snack now and then, and yes they love money too.

Answer by ucsdbaby123
i dont even think i’ve heard a commercial for “healthy food” at any restaurant period, whether it be fast food or a sit down restaurant…cept maybe subway. i dont think its healthy at all, but sometimes you crave it and it satisfies your stomach. its nice sometimes not to care about what you eat =)

Answer by questionable
just stuff. but changes are being made slowly…very slowly? In actuality they only give us what we want. Supply and demand.

No fast food chains have never served good food and they never will! If you want to learn a lot about their food! Rent or buy the movie Fast Food Nation you will discover so much about fast food chains! What’s worse is there are billions of people eating this crap everyday! Even the salads have tons of sugar and salt!!

No sorry

Answer by tara
no- its all a marketing scam

Answer by bridgette c
Deceiving my butt, they have all of the nutritional info on everything they serve. It’s your choice to eat where you eat. That’s the problem with people…….they always blame the other guy. Do research about it and you would learn the only healthy thing they have is water. It’s all about choices.

No they aren’t healthy in the least, not unless you stick with the salads and the grilled chicken.

Nope

Answer by tiffanybriana
Yes and no, I work and McD’s and they are making things healthIER. Let me explain. We DO have healthy foods, the salads are very good for you, but the ranch dressing is fattening, get one that is low fat, like the vinigarette. The apples are good for you and the caramel that goes with it is only a half a gram of fat. But the fruit and walnut salads, the fruit is good and the yogurt is low fat but a packet of candied walnuts has like 13 grams of fat. The same with the sandwiches, things can be MUCH lower in fat if you just get them without the mayonaise, ranch sauce, or any other kind of sauce for that matter. We do have LIGHT mayo packets that you can use instead. Even the ice cream is made with low fat mix, just don’t get toppings on it. So really it’s up to you to pay attention and try to eat healthy, the alternatives are out there.
