Super Size Fries/Super Size You

May 30, 2008 by Patricia Setzer in Nutrition with No Comments

McDonalds is now boasting you can super size your fries because they no longer contain Trans-Fats, trans fats or not, if you super size your fries chances are you will super size you.

Check out the oil used to cook McDonald’s fries and you will see that it may contain TBHQ(Tertiary Butylhydroquinone). TBHQ is a petroleum-derived butaine and is used either alone or in combination with the preservative-antioxidant butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and/or butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT).
