Solid writeup on this from Kevin Pang on the Trib's food blog.
Also, and this will come as no surprise to anyone, here are the dirty details:
NUTRITIONAL FACTS
Big Mac: 540 cal, 29 g fat, 1040 mg sodium
Angus Deluxe: 750 cal, 39 g fat, 1700 mg sodium
Mushroom & Swiss: 770 cal, 40 g fat, 1170 mg sodium
Bacon & Cheese: 790 cal, 39 g fat, 2070 mg sodium
To get me to eat something with those values it had better be the fruit of knowledge.
I wish to gain carnal knowledge of the bacon and cheese.
I had the Angus bacon and cheese the other day. I wasn't that impressed. It wasn't as good as others I've had elsewhere.
If I want a big, greasy restaurant-style burger, I'll go to a restaurant or at least the gyro place on Division. If I go to McDonald's for a burger, it's because I want the specific plasticine variety they've been serving since I was born.
That calorie count info is truly sickening. Time to get back to the gym!
True, there's no substitute for a couple McDonlad's double cheeseburgers if that's what you're after.
