A day in the 'burbs...

... gave us a chance to stop at McDonald's and relive our child-hood "Happy Meal" memories. Still nervous from all of those "Super Size Me" revelations, we were surprised by which menu items were the biggest killers calorie-wise. The biggest surprise came when comparing nutritional values for the Big Mac and the Premium Chicken Club sandwiches...

  • Big Mac (pictured) - 540 calories (better than we imagined)

  • Premium Grilled Chicken Club Sandwich - 530 calories (thought it would be lower...)

  • Premium Crispy Chicken Club Sandwich - 630 calories (Whoa!)

So if you're having a 'Mac Attack' and think the safer path is the Chicken, just go with your gut.

Yes, Super Size Me did kill the Big Mac attacks for awhile, but then you forget and go for the gold again! Did Jude take you to the mcdonald's with the baby grand on the 2nd floor? I've got a picture of that somewhere.....
