Because of their Dollar Menu (which doesn’t feature any of their recently added healthy menu items), sales at McDonald’s have risen sharply over the last three years. In the article, a McDonald’s rep calls the Egg McMuffin “a very nutritious sandwich”. I like me some McMuffin, but if you look at its nutrition info (22% of your daily saturated fat and 77% of your daily cholesterol…and a McMuffin isn’t that big), it’s hard to imagine the circumstances under which you could call it “very nutritious”.
