"We all know the answer to this question: never"
Absolute nonsense, I feel amazing after eating fast food. I generally just get a chicken sandwich or burger or snack wrap, no soda or fries, maybe a milkshake - why would I not feel great after eating protein and fat? Dairy feels great for me too. This has to be utter nocebo on part of anyone who's convinced fast food is killing them, there's no way the food itself has that effect. The demonization of fast food is nonsensical in general - a burger made at McDonald's is not nutritionally different in any significant way from one made at home.
- wjgilmore 1y agoGiven a choice between eating fast food and a home cooked meal I’ll take the latter every time. But to each their own, I’m not here to judge.
- gabrielsroka 1y agoThe hamburger bun has sugar, dextrose and maltodextrin, etc in it. When I bake bread at home, I don't add those things. The ketchup has corn syrup. These things might be small but maybe they add up. https://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en-us/product/hamburger.html#accordion-c921f9207b-item-283bee7dbd https://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en-us/product/hamburger.html#ac...
- lotsoweiners 1y agoYou bake your own burger buns?
- gabrielsroka 1y agoI've baked boules, baguettes and pretzels, but not buns (yet). I use Jim Lahey's no-knead bread recipe. Easy and delicious.
- duckmysick 1y agoNot OP but when I make burgers at home I bake my own potato buns (not necessarily on the same day). No bakery around me makes soft savory buns and the prepacked store-bought ones have this weird synthetic and stale flavor.
