I think high blood pressure is caused by the stress put on American citizens by nosy-nabobs who want to control everything we do, say, hear, and believe.
Heart disease, high blood pressure and all those types of things were around A LONG TIME before anyone ever heard of McDonalds.
But, these people are of the same mindset that blames GUNS for people killing people.

Are the Golden Arches a registered trademark?
If so, this would constitute infringement.

Brings to mind an old joke.
Lady complaining to her 'dead' husband about his smoking habit: "See, I told ya cigarettes would kill ya."
[He got hit by a tobacco truck.]

I know vegans with heart troubles, cholesterol issues, and the same odds of dying (1 in 1) as the rest of us.

And just what is it with the Left and their food-nazism all of a sudden?
Do they just see it as one more great social wrong to right with a vast expansion of government authority?
I think we all know the answer to that question.

Agreed, I am SICK of all these self appointed demigods that think Americans are to stupid to make their own decisions.
Nothing about the job the guy held (high-stress). His home life. Etc., etc.

Absurdity rules supreme!
Carbohydrates are at the root of all chronic disease, and in particular, sugar.
What carbs do is to increase inflammation through numerous modalities. The main one is the proliferation of biofilms in arteries and joints.
Fats, if anything are part of the cure, not in any way part of the cause.
While vegetables are a necessary part of our diet, a vegetarian diet is not desirable at all, especially if you wish your children to be strong and intelligent.

The group also plans to write to Washington Mayor Adrian Fenty to seek a moratorium on the construction of new fast-food restaurants in the city. The "group" should read the "communist group" wants total control over the people, as though, we are too stupid to monitor and control out own diets. That group can stuff it! Imagine the fools blaming McDonalds because someone took money out of his wallet and selected something he liked from the menu, as though it is McDonalds fault. The morons should start their own fast food chain!
Let them waste their time and money tilting at windmills. Would it not be great if everyone loved being vegetarian! Myself, I appreciate McDonalds and the varied menu they offer so I can decide what to eat, not some moronic group.

Fat free milk is grossly unhealthy.
So are salads that sit in a salad bar all day.
Chicken is cheap, but not as healthy to eat as fish or red meats. Same for turkey. Poltry has to be cooked way beyond the point that it is digestable due to the unhealthy way it is raised.
Lightly cooked meat is more healthy than heavily cooked meat. All cooked foods are harmful to proper digestion.
