the numbers seem to be a bit off

12,000 in 30 years

that about 400 per year

as he doesn't eat those in sunday, which mean he heat about 400 Big Mac in span of 313 days.

thats about: 1.28 Big Mac/day, its quite low.

is that amount of Big Mac per day can really handle his daily calories needs?

Each time he said "Beef" I giggled a little. Beef. Beef. Beef. 

I didn't. :ermm:

 

yeah because corporate always telling the truth...

Pretty sure it's totally illegal to tell lies like that, and what with Americans being so litigation happy (yes, I know that was in Canada), they would be getting sued into oblivion for that ****.

People are unaware that they have long since changed their ingredients and processes, and so continue to demonise their products.

That's like $60,000 of Big Mac's... could have put that toward a house, a fancy car or two... what a waste.

 

Spending money on food is a waste? if it was smoking or something else which is non-essential I'd understand but food?

i dunno where you guys eat your Big Macs (as in, in which country), but in my country the meat is not only certified by the meat producers association but there's also national meat as well, which helps the economy; also the burgers are very delicious but depends on the franchise; certain franchises are more empties and so they have more time to better prepare the burger; others are incredible full at almost all times and so the quality decreases.

 

On Topic: you guys seem to ignore the fact that this man eats only a Big Mac per day, nothing else; that's very low on calories (the generic recommended daily dose is 2k calories for man and slight less for a woman) and it wont make you fat; the only problem is that he's not getting all the nutrients that he need with this kind of food (also the article clearly says that). Having said that last year i worked for a client for a whole week in their organization; there was nothing near to eat lunch, so i went to Macdonald's every day; after that week i was completely fed up of eating that kind of food. :x

 

Variety is great.

If the guy bought 50 bucks in ground beef once, he'd be able to make his own big macs a few times over than the same price he's paying for McDonalds to make it. He spends the same amount of big macs a month that I do in 3 months of grocery shopping. 

One of the guys at work bought this steak dinner thing in a box, and I noticed it said "100% Beef" on it. I was dubious... Upon further inspection it actually said "100% Beef Taste"

 

.. urrggggggg!

Clearly you have not visited McDonald's lately. :p

 

I kid, I kid. 

I was there Sunday -- spent a whole dollar and six cents on a chicken sandwich.

 

And you are lucky if they don't screw that up. :p

I quite enjoy McDonald's. They have turned into a great place (as long as you keep it in moderation). I'm usually there every day in the morning for just a coffee, but the new quarter pound BLT is amazing.

 

Also, here in Canada there are very strict regulations on beef, and that video is 100% true. I know someone who works at a meat processing plant that ships all their beef to McDonald's and that place is as clean as a lab.

    • Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.
    • Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
