All of the talk about losing weight after the holidays (see Excel Weight Loss Tracker for one) has me swinging in the other direction. They say that as a result of posting the calorie counts at restaurants (as required here in NYC), people are responding by making more responsible food choices, but I think it's safe to start eating some high fat, high calorie meals again.
So in the interest of health (or just if you want to gross yourself out), I downloaded and put the McDonald's menu choices into a spreadsheet. Actually, it was a web query, cleaned up to make it into a nice little table. Now you can see how quickly those Bacon Egg and Cheese McGriddles are killing you. Or, this could be just a blatant grab for related search engine traffic. Either way, enjoy!
To duplicate this file on your own, point your web query at: http://nutrition.mcdonalds.com/nutritionexchange/nutrition_facts.html Update 6/9/2010: Seems that McDonald's changed their page and you can no longer download the whole menu as a query.
Let the Cease & Desist letters flow.
ps- by the time you read this, my second son should be born. So the posting will slow down a bit. I've scheduled a few posts, but once those run out, my blogging will be sporadic for a while.
