Get Fish Oil HERE!

[Nelson Montana]

There's another thread on this. I wanted to add that McDonalds has some of the most stringent cleanliness standards in the industry. Once again, this isn't an endorsement. I just shows that with a little effort, good diet choices can be made anywhere.

Here are the stats for the Filet o' Fish. It's cod, which is an oily fish high in DHA and Omega 3's. (Most Americans prefer white fish like flounder and sole).

http://www.dietbites.com/Foods-Nutrition-Index/fast-food-nutrition-facts-mcdonalds-24.html

Out of the 18 grams of fat, only 4 grams are saturated and only one gram of trans fat. (Lost likely from the tarter sauce which can be removed). Plus 15 grams of protein. Ya know, that's not bad. Again, not to be eaten every day, but not bad at all. And pretty tasty too.

 

[GUARDIAN]

Tell me the super sized fries are great for me!

Hmmmm....I could go for some right now. Hot and fresh out of the oil.

 

[jon1320]

I haven't hit up a MickyD's in atleast 2 years..
But if I'm ever in a crunch I might have to see whassup with that fish.
Cool info NM, thx.

 

[hurricane]

yummy and wash it down with a nice mcfluffy =]

 

[Nelson Montana]

Fries? Mc Fluffy's? You guys really have no self control do you?

BTW: Here's something that is sold as a bodybuilding food. It contains hydrogenated palm oil. And cost twice as much. Compare the stats and tell me what makes it so much better.

I assumed you were kidding. Ah, a piece of white bread now and then won't kill you.

Good shit there Nelson. I'm not a big fan of Mcdonalds but thats extremely interesting about the fish. I'll be getting the fish instead of that dollar cheeseburger from now on .

You've always been a great help to the board and I've learned alot from you. Just wanted to say thanks my nig.

to bad it's fried
cod and flounder are one of the lowest fat fishes
cod fillets only have about 2% fat


so supect from those 18 grams of fat maybe 2 grams are from the cod itself
the rest is from the heated oil they fry it in.

your better off to just get cod from the store and grill it in a pan it.

yes nelson cod is a good source of dha and omega's
but go to the food index and see how much of the actual fat in that fried cod fillet is from the cod ,not very much.

so the assumtion that it is " healthy fat " becuase it's in a fish sandwich
is not correct when less then even 2 grams of it is healthy fats
http://calorielab.com/search/?search_input=cod

sorry nelson but you slipped on this one 2 grams of healthy and 16 grams of oil from the deep fryer is hardly the source of omega 3's bodybuilder need

But they use canola oil so even that isn't bad. Yes, high temp from frying isn't great for triglyceride levels. (Then again, I remember listening to a 100 year old woman speaking about how she ate fried chicken almost every day). And cod is an oily fish so I'm going to say the % must be higher since the trans fat is only one gram.

Of course, home cooking is best. The point was just that there are times we all need food to be convenient and what is thought to be great, may not be so great, and what is often thought to be bad, may not be so bad.

cod is not oily
http://calorielab.com/search/?search_input=cod
not even one gram of fat is from the 3 oz fillet

17 grams of heated oil and 1 gram from the cod
i'll pass on that one

I seriously doubt a 100 yr old women ate fried chicken everyday ,people often say that kinda stuff and over exaggerate

 

[khemix]

I'm still gonna get me a fish oil samich tomorrow .

Much like chicken, it depends on if it's the darker or lighter meat. (You may have noticed that cod has both).

Of course people exaggerate but what agenda does an old woman have? I think the point is, so many of these issues are genetic and being fanatical isn't going to make much of a difference.

it's a fillet sandwich ,cod does not work the same way as chicken
the highest fat content in the cod is the liver.the rest of the fish is very lean and white.
cod has a sligh darker area and thats usually when some skin gets in the fillet

not that I am saying its bad to eat cod
I am saying you are misrepresenting cod as a " high oil fatty fish"
when its actually not.
Theirfore making people assume that the fish sandwich has a high "good " fat content when it's actaully very low.

17 grams of fried oil to get 1 gram of fish fat ?

you mentioned the gentic issue? a old lady?
bodybuilders most using steroids risk the dangerous of heart problems and serious health issues when our hdl/ldl ratio is out of wack.
no need in running around suggesting to guys to go to fast food chains and eat a buncha fried foods,or rely on them as a source of EFA'S and Omega 3's

your looked up to as a guru nelson, that means someone has already read this thread and decided hey " nelson says it's ok" and they are gonna shove fried fish sandwiches down thier hatch like no tomarrow ,then sneaking in fries and other stuff.

I think you're missing the point bro. I never suggested going to fast food chains. I was making a point about food stats.

And if anyone thinks because one food has decent stats that think it's okay to sneak in fries or other crap, what can I tell you bro? I, nor anyone else, can stop people from making ridiculous assumptions. This is part of my argument against the argument against Mc Donalds. When people whine that the portions are too big or that they sell ice cream it makes me want to smack them in the head. No one is forcing them to eat it. But if you're on the run, yeah, there's not much difference between a hamburger and a protein bar.

Not to get off topic bro you struck a nerve here. Greenpeace is hardly the gauge I would use for righteousness.

They tried to stop Norman Bourlaug, a man who has saved millions of lives. http://www.agbioworld.org/biotech-info/topics/borlaug/greatest.html


Why? Because he developed a method to feed the world but it just wasn't organic enough for the Greenpeace people. They are against using insecticides on food to third world countries which spares millions of pounds of grain from infestation. They'd rather have people starve so they can feel noble.

I keep an eye on all these do-gooder organizations, It's all about ego. It's all about their belief being superior. What? They don't want McDonolds using farm land to grow soy because the workers aren't making enough money? At least they're employed and probably glad to be so. But the do-gooders sit in their ivory towers and bitch about humanity and complain about everything and instead, the land goes to waste and nobody works.

Sorry for the rant. But it really irks me when people get in the way of others trying to be productive for their own personal agenda. It's no different than the law makers who will throw your ass in jail so they can be the champion of anti drug use. Fuck the facts, they're being pious! I hate that shit.

So not only is mcdonalds making america fat one child at a time, they are destroying the rainforest in the process.

I knew mcdonalds was up to no good when they were setting up shop in russia taking the currency and trading it in for diamonds through the govt.
War diamonds out of africa that people were being slaughtered over the smuggled on the black market into russia.

 

[OMEGA]

sorry to barge in on you post it not you or your ideas it strictly Mc D Nelson


there is more about Mc D'd though


REALLY these mammoth corps would salt the earth and move to another planet and do it their too.\ if they could

Its about FORCING a re-writing of business rules

there is nothing Free about Free market when freedom and sustainability is not ingrained for the FREEDOM of the future

Man, the level of paranoia is a little off the chart. All I wanted to do is eat a fucking filet o fish sandwich and suddenly I'm supporting thieves and murderers. Next thing you know Ronald McDonald is going to be accused of plotting 9/11.

wow I need to read and here more on this.............


Also the whole "freedom" of the Russian Economy was set up by a Stanford Think tank and of course.

As a Harvard Professor said: "all this led too was the "gangsterism" of that market."


Freedom will never come from the Free Hand of the market, saving this planet wont either...........

it will come form the blood , sacrifice and tears of the working class who rise up. ( democratically)

I doubt their is even any FISH in that fucking sandwich prob some by product from crap they sweep up off the floor in the soya factories!
If their is fish it prob has no fish oil in it , mcdonalds has it squeezed out to sell to another company!

 

[LiquidPhire]

Wait.. what are you trying to say Nelly?

Those big macs I'm eating everyday are not good?

What about the 660 mg of salt?

 

[Nelson Montana]

Most MRP's contain about 400 mgs. Not a problem unless you have high BP.

Again, this is not meant to be something you eat every day.

best post EVER or at least in a long time lollololo

 

[702daswoll1]

660mg salt is not that much really considering the source.

Hey Nelson, Im now a religous user of Flax. I have leaned up alot since I started throwing a couple caps in each shake.. The shit ups your metabolism somehow.

 

[buftup]

Good to know bro. Thanks for looking out.
