More nutritional advice from McDonalds

What does the fast food giant have to say about healthy eating?

This final note today, in which the McDonalds website puts its foot firmly in the corporate mouth.

We’ve told you in the past about how the employee hotline, called McResouces, has suggested workers apply for food stamps to help ends meet. Here’s another one, discovered today by CNBC.

The site advises on nutrition as well and says, “Although not impossible, it is more of a challenge to eat healthy when going to a fast food place,” accompanied by a picture of what looks a whole lot like a Big Mac and fries labeled, “unhealthy choice.”
