Mega Mac Makes Me Sick

McDonald's never the best food to eat when you're sick, but when mom called to ask what to get for dinner from Mcdonalds (specifically), it's not like I have a choice right!

So I ordered a very conservative serving of 1 McSpicy burger and 1 Apple Pie, considering the fries becomes soft and mashy when you tapao.

When I got home, on the table was 1 MEGAMAC set meal completed with apple pie and milo drink. *turns left....* and my brother is gorging down a DOUBLE McSpicy..

Tamade. He ate my burger... but it's technically not even what I ordered.

I figured there would be some trouble finishing everything, so I ate the apple pie first since it's probably the most tasty. And to cut things short, I finished 3/4 of the burger, half the fries and ALL of the drink just to wash it all down. It felt incredibly sick to swallow so much food. But not to finish as much as I did would make myself guilty for wastage.

Finishing the burger is equivalent to running the 2.4km during IPPT. The final 200m is the killer and you just want to give up, much like the final 3 bites of the burger. And when you finish the 2.4km, you just feel like vomitting. Exactly how I felt after finishing the food.

If you remember the latest advert on the MegaMac, the slogan was 'You deserve a MegaMac!'.

Like what the hell right, marketing fast food as some comfort food? So you think people will choose to stuff themselves with MegaMac instead of other comfort food around?

I also think it's highly unethical to market such hideous stuff on TV. Kids who couldn't think for themselves will end up having McDonalds to prove to people they can finish the Mega burgers, as a sense of achievement. We all know how competitive kids are in Singapore. At least thats how I see it.

After tonight, I do not see myself having another Mega burger in the near future.

Seriously.
