In Australia, fast food is rather limited, unlike America. We have McDonalds, Burger King/Hungry Jacks, and KFC as the main ones, but we also have Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and a few more, but nope...we don't have Carl's Jr, Hardees, Wendys and all that other American stuff, though. Does that mean Australians are more selective about what we eat?


We have wendy's in australia (unless you aren't talking about the ise cream shops). I didn't think there was a Taco Bell in Australia, though.

We have Wendy's Ice Cream but not Wendy's Hamburgers like in America. And yes, there is a Taco Bell in Australia, there's one in Sydney where I live. I just ate there earlier today.

I haven't gone to McDonald's or Burger King in years. I strictly go to Wendy's where they cook the burgers right on the spot. They are always really hot.

Wendy's, "Richman's Fast Food" lol

I recently found out something about McD...

but since I don't know how much of it is FUD, I won't say a thing... at least not until I find some proof... a word of advice though... if you are not 100% sure about the meat in your burger, don't even touch it...

I ate in different parts of the world..
I must say the best meal was in the far east. They also have a fast food called beef bowl which is very good, quick, and relatively priced right.

Australia, I ate at the sizzler, mc d's, chips, ect.

And there wasnt a place i went that didnt have either KFC, mc d's, pizza hut, or some fast food. Now im stuck eating this stuff again which is oka. I enjoy it all the same but japan had the best meal for me..

McDonald's obesity suit thrown out
Thursday, September 4, 2003 Posted: 9:25 PM EDT (0125 GMT)


 
McDonald's says its food "can fit into a healthy, well-balanced diet."


NEW YORK (CNN) -- A federal judge Thursday threw out a class-action lawsuit by two Bronx teenagers claiming McDonald's used false advertising and that the chain's food made them fat and contributed to their health problems.

The plaintiffs' lawyers claimed unknown ingredients and processing made foods such as french fries, Chicken McNuggets and Filet-O-Fish sandwiches damaging to consumers' health.

"The plaintiffs have made no explicit allegations that they witnessed any particular deceptive advertisement, and they have not provided McDonald's with enough information to determine whether its products are the cause of the alleged injuries," said U.S. District Court Judge Robert Sweet.

"Finally, the one advertisement which plaintiffs implicitly allege to have caused their injuries is objectively non-deceptive."

Sweet ruled the plaintiffs could not re-file the lawsuit.

In January, the judge dismissed the first version of the suit, saying the plaintiffs failed to show McDonald's food was "dangerous in any way other than that which was open and obvious to a reasonable consumer."

But Sweet allowed the plaintiffs' attorneys file again after they revised the suit to try to establish the existence of dangers "not commonly well known."

Sweet said in his first ruling that McDonald's cannot be blamed by consumers who choose to eat there.

"If a person knows or should know that eating copious orders of super-sized McDonald's products is unhealthy and may result in weight gain," Sweet wrote in January, "it is not the place of the law to protect them from their own excesses."

"We trusted that common sense would prevail in this case, and it did," McDonald's spokeswoman Lisa Howard said in a statement released from the company's Oak Brook, Illinois, headquarters.

"Today's dismissal is further recognition that the courtroom is not the appropriate forum to address this important issue.

"McDonald's food can fit into a healthy, well-balanced diet based upon the choice and variety available on our menu."

The company said more than 20 million people eat at McDonald's in the United States every day.

"I think you should contact my lawyer. He has my reaction," Roberta Pelman, mother of plaintiff Ashley Pelman, told CNN. The plaintiffs' lawyer, Samuel Hirsch, said he had no comment.
