1.Trans Fats
McDonald's uses trans fats in their burgers, shakes, fries and breakfast foods. These oils cause artery damage, cholesterol, and DNA damage. McDonald's uses hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils in your food, causing weight gain, which then causes a whole host of other problems. McDonald's continues to do this, knowing the damage these substances cause.
2.Putty
No, this putty is not a toy in a Happy Meal, it's what McDonald's put in your food. Dimethylpolysiloxane is a big word for the silicone that is used in Silly Putty, and in the food that you consume at McDonald's. If you knew that would you voluntarily eat it?
3.Petroleum
Petroleum has a host of great uses in this world, but it's not something that you should be eating. Tertiary butyhydroquinone, or TBHQ, is a petroleum derived product that McDonald's puts in your food and lists on the ingredients on their website. Chicken McNuggets with a heaping of Vaseline, yum!
4.Salads Sprayed With Chemicals
McDonald's salads seem like a healthy choice, right? Their lettuce seems fresh and crisp, but do you know why it stays so crisp. Chemicals. McDonald's spreays it's salads with a chemical specifically designed to keep lettuce crisp. It's good for the lettuce, not so good for your body or your health.
5.Employees Work On Christmas Day
McDonald's is open on Christmas Day and therefore employees, who would much rather be home eating with their families and opening presents, are forced to stand behind the counter at their local McDonald's. While it may seem that some unfortunate people might need a place to eat, a soup kitchen is probably healthier.
6.They Support Destruction Of Rainforests
McDonald's allegedly uses soybeans, that are harvested from endangered areas of the rainforest, to feed their chickens that they then serve you. Fox News reported on Greenpeace's findings, making it public knowledge and McDonald's said they would no longer do it, however no further information can be found on whether this happened or not.
7.High Fat Low Nutritional Value
There is more sugar in their foods than found in candy. Unhealthy, bleached white bread used in all of their sandwiches convert directly into sugar in the body, spiking blood sugar and causing an insulin rush. The result weight gain, obesity, type 2 Diabetes, heart disease and more and this doesn't even cover their shakes and cookies.

8.Promotes Obesity
McDonald's refused to acknowledge its contribution to the obesity of children in the world. Blaming the parents, and everything else, the company will not take any responsibility for marketing to children and then serving them food that makes them overweight and unhealthy. It's the children who nag their parents to take them to McDonald's and the company knows it.
9.Burgers Will Never Rot
What does it tell you about a burger if ten and twenty years later it never rots? How many preservatives do you think are in that burger to have it last that long? While the burger may live on and on into the next century, you, unfortunately, will expire much sooner than your expiration date from eating this food.

10.Fries fried in Beef Extract Flavored Oil
Vegetarians think they can safely eat McDonald's fries. Well, think again. The oil they use is flavored with beef extract. There is actually no need for this flavoring, but it is used nonetheless, without divulging this information to unsuspecting customers, some of whom are vegetarians and would be very unhappy to find out what they're eating.
11.Promotes Endothelial Dysfunction
The processed fats that McDonald's uses in their food creates endothelial dysfunction. This dysfunction can lead to erectile dysfunction in men. Along with that, these fats are proven to be fatal for the heart, causing all sorts of cardiac problems as well. All this from eating McDonald's just twice a week.

12.Pink Slime Burgers
By now most of you have probably heard about the pink slime the use as burgers at McDonald's. In case you forgot, or never heard, the meat, on the bones of carcasses, that butchers would throw out or that would be used for dog food, is spun off the bone and then washed in ammonia.
