Another reason NOT to eat fast food!

Not for the weak stomach!!

Ok, we know the health reasons as to why we shouldn't eat fast food but have you thought of this?

Today I grabbed a grilled chicken sandwich from McDonald's because I forgot to pack my lunch. Because of a recent lifestyle change in diet I only eat the meat, no bread, but today I was going to eat it ALL. I didn't order french fries or a drink, just the sandwich and I was hungry so I was going all in.

I get back to my desk at work and pull my sandwich box from the obviously kid targeted Shrek bag. Oh the sweet smell of fast food! I clear my area so that my focus is on this grilled chicken sandwich that I am about to devour. I pull back the top of the box and immediately notice the lady bug that is crawling on my sandwich bun. Ok, so I won't be eating the bun. My mind quickly remembers an incident from last summer at THIS SAME MCDONALDS. I had ordered a chocolate dipped ice cream cone through the drive thru and as I drove off I went to take a lick and noticed a hair sticking out of my ice cream. Just the thought of hair in my food makes me gag and this hair was embedded in the ice cream. Was it in the machine or chocolate coating? Either way...GROSS!!!

So, back to lunch. I decide to go ahead and eat the grilled chicken part since it was steaming hot (which in itself is unusual for McDonalds). Surely the ladybug hadn't touched it. I found a little bit of salad in the fridge to eat with it so that I would not starve to death. haha! As I begin eating I decide to google "why not eat fast food?" Check out the links below. Needless to say I did NOT finish the grilled chicken. All of a sudden I'm not very hungry.
