This is the absolute worst thing you can order at McDonald’s
Okay, let’s be honest: nobody goes to McDonald’s to eat something nice and healthy. Whether you go for a simple burger or the Big Tasty, it’s all bad. Yes, even those salads they have aren’t exactly very healthy. Unless you order it without dressing, by the way. Then it’s not too bad. But there is one item on the menu that really isn’t an option, calorie-wise.
Or, well, you should absolutely decide for yourself what you do and don’t eat. But if you want to watch your figure a little and still end up at McDonald’s… You should absolutely not eat this.
No dessert for me
The McFlurry is the gigantic culprit. What a betrayal. You think you’ll finish off your McDonald’s meal with a dessert… And that is precisely the item you would be better off leaving alone. Why? Because of the calories and the high fat content. One McFlurry contains around 31% of your recommended daily intake.
Sugar is where the McFlurry really goes wrong. No joke: one McFlurry contains almost twice the recommended daily amount of sugar. Hoooly shitballs. I’ll skip it for now. Until we can order the pink McFlurry here…
Gastronomic McFlurry
And are you now thinking, how do you make a McFlurry yourself, but with a somewhat gastronomic twist? Top pastry chef Hidde de Brabander (formerly employed by Michelin-starred restaurants such as De Librije and Parkheuvel) shows you how; you can see that here.
