Oh McDonald's you're making it way too easy to get fat! I wonder if people even thought that the day would come when you can be in a fastfood restaurant without falling in line. First came the drivethru and then delivery by calling, and now, we can order through our mobile phones! it seems like it's getting easier and easier to get the food we want without having to put too much effort into it. Oh my goodness! Mcdonalds is really making it way too easy to get fatter. Sooner or later we'll all look like the people in that Wall-E film where everyone was obese and travelled around in hovering carts. It seems like the whole world is conspiring to achieve that image. All you have to do is register through BPI and voila! you can now order your twister fries, your burgers, your soda and upsize them if you want with a few simple clicks on your mobile phone. Guess, there'll be a lot more supersized Filipinos because of this service! merry Christmas everyone! and please be advised not to eat too much or order too much unless you want to end up spending the next six months working all the fat off! Happy holidays!

McDonalds has nothing to do with obesity. They just sell the food, YOU choose to eat it. The way our bodies look is 100% up to the choices WE make. Sincerely and With Appreciation.

I agree completely, I think it may be high time to raise awareness in this world, that most of the things that happen to us, are completely under our own personal control. I read a nice quote once, that I have been happily annoying people with since....Life is 10% what happens, and 90% How we react to it. Just have to spread the word. Sincerely and With Appreciation.

true ever so true problem is, many people lack discipline when it comes to a perceived need (example: need to eat a big burger) than an actual need (eat something healthier) sigh

That's way my friends and I have banned McDonald's. I don't eat at McDonald's. I refuse. I know about all of the garbage that happens at those fast food chains, and McDonald's is the worst. My advice to anyone and everyone is don't eat at McDonald's.

No, don't eat McDonald's at all. Send them a message. Put them out of business or force them to completely change their menu. I do not eat at McDonald's, and I won't until they change their ways.

well we probably can't expect everyone to follow suit. but maybe a better advice would be for people to eat with moderation

omg...i never knew u could order food using a cell phone...maybe its just cuz my phone sucks and barely has any features lol. that along with the fact that i no longer have cable. i seem to be getting more and more out of touch these days. it sucks. anyway, back to people getting fatter...this is kind of ridiculous. i am scared to know what they will come up with next to make it easier to gain weight. in a way i am glad that i dont have all the latest technology so at least i can still do stuff manually. i mean, its not like i have problems gaining weight lol. i don't need any help from technology

just like you, i wonder what they'll come up next being fat just isn't fun i hope people realize that soon enough on a lighter note... yes technology is out to get you. ever watched terminator? since the machines have probably realized that fighting head on with humans is futile, they just decided to make it easier for us to get fat and lazy by making everything accessible.

Well, if you eat fast food with moderation you won't get fat. It's a big and common error to blame fast food restaurants for the population obesity, when the ones at fault are those ones who go too much to those restaurants instead of putting an effort in having a balanced diet, learning to cook and preparing well balanced meals at home, etc. I like going to McDonalds sometimes, but I won't feed only on their food, no matter how easy it is to do so, because I care about my body

i like mcdonalds too and even had an even greater liking to it when i was younger but as we grow older we begin to realize some things like eating healthy and having well balanced meals i probably indulge in a burger once a month can't be too lenient
