    I think you must have meant "None of those matter if you only or mostly eat bad stuff like processed foods."

    ALL of them matter regardless of how healthy (or unhealthy) you eat, which was the point.

    If you eat small portions of McDonald's every day and exercise, you will be unhealthy. Which was my point.

    Eating "clean" or healthy is hitting your macros requirements and not going way over your calorie budget. If you just focus on fats and calories then sure, some of these fast foods should do in a pinch. Eat well 80-90% of the time and having any of these fast foods shouldn't hurt. This thread is making me hungry.

    A McDonalds "side salad" with 20 calories and 4 carbs, but that's not really what you mean is it? If you are talking about an item that people associate with fast food, it would probably be a small hamburger with no cheese or ketchup, just meat, buns, lettuce, onions, tomato, pickles, and mustard.

    KingCheetah must be the only fast food traveler asking this question.

    The fat f-ng lady who just went through the drive-thru and couldn't make it out of the parking lot without gobbling down her Ultimate Cheeseburger sure the hell isn't.

    How's that small fruit cup and small side salad with no dressing from Chik-Fil-A holding over your appetite there? lol

    There are pretty healthy people that eat McDonalds regularly.

    They do sponsor the U.S. Olympic team.

    regularly?

    I don't know anyone healthy that eats there regularly, unless by healthy you mean 'not fat'.

    There was recently an article on a guy who eats like 10 Big Macs a week, and is in good health.

    Hard for you to measure health of another individual, beyond what they look like.

    If there's an article about him, then it's rather likely he's an exception. Also, just because some ppl are thin doesn't necessarily mean they are healthy.

    True & True, though the article was in regards to him eating 1 or 2 Big Macs every day, which in itself is an exception.

    So short of being told what somebody's health is, we can only go based on what we see. We generally are making assumptions about people's health, rather than what the actual truth may be.
