How Bad is “Bad” Food?

Thursday, January 26, 2012 · Posted In: Current Events, Daily Column, Economics

One of the most routinely demonized companies is McDonald’s.  The company is endlessly attacked for  providing good food at low prices.

There are two sides to this story:  “

“A teenage girl who has eaten almost nothing else apart from chicken nuggets for 15 years has been warned by doctors that the junk food is killing her.

“Stacey Irvine, 17, has been hooked on the treats since her mother bought her some at a McDonald’s restaurant when she was two.”  Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2092071/Stacey-Irvine-17-collapses-eating-McDonalds-chicken-nuggets-age-2.html#ixzz1ka6MHvSv

One wonders how bad a steady diet of Chicken McNuggets could be.  For a decade and a half, a healthy-looking young woman has been living on french fries and McNuggets.  From the look of her, more people may benefit from such a diet.

That conclusion is so obvious that one wonders if she, and many other targets for the  “McDonald’s Haters”, are invented, encouraged, and brought to national attention by the company’s skilled marketing and/or public relations department.  Such stories allow their extensive advertising campaigns to take up even more consumer brain space at low cost.   Hard to tell.

About Catholic Fundamentalism

We speak and think of God in Iron Age words. Catholic Fundamentalism redefines God for our times as The Loving Programmer.


As we understand The Loving Programmer’s power, we realize that the Fundamentalists are right—Scripture should be taken as literally as possible. If we are especially blessed in seeing the truth in Fundamentalism, it may become apparent that The Roman Catholic Church has been His chosen repository for faithful Christians since the beginning.
