>Mcdouble
>At 390 calories, 23 grams of protein, 7-percent of the daily value of fiber, 20-percent of daily calcium and 19 grams of fat - with a typical price tag of about a buck - the McDouble, its advocates argue, is the most price-efficient food 'that has ever existed in human history.'
>a Mcdouble actually has nutritional values very similar to workout supplements. When your goal is to eat a lot of protein, electrolyte (table salt is an electrolyte) and calories, a McDouble is good for that.
So why don't people just bulk on mcdoubles?
>>35071965
I do, they aren't a buck in canuckistan but I probably eat 2 a day or so
because mcdonalds in australia stopped selling them for some reason
I eat McDonalds 2-3 times a week. Perfect bulking food
They aren't that cheap compared to bulk-buying regular food and the micronutrient profile is dogshit.
what? most of america managed to get bulkier thanks to mcdoubles

chicken breast
1 oz serving

26.1g of protein
yeah think i'll stick with real meat you fat piece of shit

MOMMA HAD A CHICKEN
I ate two mcdoubles and a small fry for lunch every day when I was bulking and didn't know how to cook.
2 years later and i still dont want to eat those fucking things.
also aren't wendy's burgers a better deal now that mcdoubles are no longer just a dollar?

Suck 100% of my dick.
http://www.snopes.com/business/market/allbeef.asp
"Those who continue to harbor doubts about the 100% beef claim should examine the ingredient lists on McDonald's web site. All of the chain's hamburgers are made from "100% beef patties"; furthermore, they define "beef patty" as being "100% pure USDA inspected beef; no additives, no fillers, no extenders." "
>>35071965
high sat fat content
high sodium content
7% of fiber is basically fucking nothing.
>table salt is an electrolyte
no shit, but you only want so many sodium ions.
the rest you want as potassium and calcium ions
anything more than 2,300mg sodium is detrimental
if you were bulking on these, your sat fat intake would be significantly more than 7% of your calories (i.e.to the point it would be pharmacologically detrimental), and your sodium intake would be well above that limit, unless you got ZERO sodium from the rest of your diet.
nice shill attempt, but nobody is fooled into thinking this is a well-rounded meal
>>35071965
I fuckin do nigga I ain't new to this sh*t!

>>35071981
They'll know what you mean when you order one. Pretty sure they're not $2 anymore though.
Oh fuck this thread again. McDonalds uses 75-25, not much worse than I use myself. Using a 99% dilution of ammonia is perfectly fine and kills bacteria so we don't have another Jack & The Box incident.
Stop listening to the fearmongers out there. There's a reason that dude doesn't list what chains they found those results in.
>>35072801

can't be arsed to find actual sources.
but just to prove this claim is academically accepted across the board

>Limiting the amount of saturated fats you eat to less than 7 percent of your total daily calories. That means if you need about 2,000 calories a day, less than 140 calories (or 16 grams) should come from saturated fats
http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/fat/art-20045550?pg=2
>Limit saturated fat to no more than 10 percent of your total calories. Limit to 7 percent to further reduce your risk of heart disease. Based on a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet, a 10 percent limit amounts to about 22 grams of saturated fat a day, while 7 percent is about 15 grams. Saturated fat intake counts toward your total daily allowance of fat.
to be clear: there is NO pharmacological detriment eating <7% calories from sat fat, from 7-10% affects your heart health negatively, and >10% is advised as unsafe.
you can easily get more than 22g sat fats daily bulking on mcdoubles.
shit is unhealthy as fuuuark.
also sat fats in general aren't good for cognition
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2805706/
yes you technically need saturated fats to live, but you don't need DIETARY saturated fats.
the only dietary fats that are mandatory are EFAs... the rest can be produced endogenously as needed.

Do you seriously believe the pink slime shit?
You actually believe that every meat processing facility McDonald's uses for their 35000 restaurants worldwide has one of these, even though no proof has ever surfaced from the hundreds of employees working with the machinery, all of the contractors who had to install them, the engineers who build them etc?
It's an email hoax.

Prepare for the classic: doctors don't actually know anything about nutrition, because they literally only receive 3095 seconds of education on it trust me I heard from a friend, who heard from a friend, from a friend, who read that on tumblr.
Either that or: they were paid to publish false results because they are in cahoots with the egg farmers or someshit.

Why the fuck would I get a McDouble when I could by a pack of 12 thickass pork chops for $14 at Costco? These fucking pork chops are so girthy I cut em in half to make em thin and even then they're filling. 24 goddamn delicious pork chops for $14 kicks the shit out 14 McDoubles

please promise me you will never boil any meat ever again (not even corned beef)
i would paypal you money to stop, but we all know you would just take the money and keep on living the plebeian life.
but you are losing nutrients and flavor when you boil meat (and it makes it tougher).
it is objectively the worst way to prepare meat.
there is a reason nobody has done it since the 1800's.
science became a thing, and we used that science to determine the chemical composition of delicious food.

>So why don't people just bulk on mcdoubles?
They do – some deliberately, and some less so. McDoubles are popular among triathletes for the same reason (not bulking per se, but cheap refuelling).
Believing that McDonalds patties are made of something other than meat is akin to believing that the moon landing never happened: it requires a startling degree of credulity and a near-complete lack of awareness about how the world actually works. This is the sort of discussion that I expect to see on /x/ (though, given the number of "shill" accusations ITT, there are apparently more than a few True Believers who also post here).
Remember, kids: MSG is an carcinogen, Aspartame pokes holes in your brain, and the HAARP was used for manipulating weather patterns and/or mind-control.

>Believing that McDonalds patties are made of something other than meat is akin to believing that the moon landing never happened
This is exactly their marketing thing right tho. I have never doubted they use actual animal product in their meaty bits, but they do use shit. They're trying to imply in their current advertising campaign that they use prime cuts and so on but they absolutely don't. And they're attempting to polarise any talk about the quality (which doesn't happen irl btw) into this weird either you believe they use top quality ingredients or you think it's something to do with labs or aliens or something.
