Fast Food Hall of Shame: McDonald's Happy Meal

For all those out there who feel that a McD's visit once in a while is not so bad for their little bodies, check out the nutritional breakdown of a cheeseburger Happy Meal with soda (yes, they have "healthier" choices, but let's face it, that's not what the kids usually want):

Calories 879
Fat 32g
Cholesterol 45mg
Protein 21g
Carbs 129g
Sugars 49g
Sodium 1195mg

Ingredients Lowlights: Easier to list Highlights: NONE!

Never mind what children's Recommended Daily Intakes are, the above amounts are 50% or greater for an ADULT"s Daily Intake--all in one, happy little meal. Nasty!
