I believe that the introduction of salads and carrot sticks was subsequent to the Super Size Me film, and some commentators would suggest, actually prompted by same. A reactionary token measure in the face of bad publicity and increasing consumer awareness.

I'm a burger king fan myself, nothing better burgerwise than an extra large bacon double cheese burger. I seem to recall Mc D's being traditionally void of the bacon option on burgers. An unforgiveable omission.

Still, sorry to hear of your turn to the dark side Sticks. Coroporate clients!! Will miss your ardent defence of whatever housemate you may have chosen, if management hadn't sold their souls for an easy buck.
