As always, it's the dose that makes it bad ...

Salt is what makes your nerves work, too much salt somehow makes you fat or something. I forgot the reason, but I think the amount you should have is about 500mg a day or something.

Fun fact: McDonalds big mac contains 1050mg of sodium

Salt is not bad for you, only refined sodium chloride is.

Also water makes sodium kersplode

Salt/sodium is an electrolyte, which can cause health problems if they're out-of-balance. Some salt is good (and, for the record, a certain amount is required for the proper operation of some of our bodies' systems), but too little or too much can cause circulatory collapse.

That's why McDonalds has been attempting to lower the sodium content of its fries and hamburgers; both to change their unhealthy image, and promote proper eating habits.

It took long enough for McDonald's to realise that killing your customers is a bad idea because dead customers cannot buy burgers.

salt, cholesterol and high fat foods have never been proven to be unhealthy in any way. in every study ever done if you read past any bias the results are
salt doesn't harm you in reasonable amounts.
cholesterol is only bad if small, dense LDL caused by sugar
Unsaturated AND Saturated fats do no harm to the body.

McDonalds fries kick ass though

I usually traverse about 5 miles a day on foot, also every day I get a taco bell volcano burrito (used to be a big mac but McDonalds is rebuilding the closest one and I don't want to walk in the other direction.

Salt is absolutely vital for all cooking: after a Bandit-killing-spree I always search every Barrel to find those Salt Piles.

If fat people exercised once in awhile instead of just eat all the time then they wouldn't need to worry about what they eat too much, as long as you do enough exercise within, I don't know, a month? Even casually? You wouldn't have this problem. That said people don't notice but avoiding eating fruit and veg causes it's own problems like constipation which I'd argue is even worse than being overweight because of the amount of pain it causes.

It's people just doing nothing but sitting at their computers or on their couches all day doing nothing but eating that are the real issue here, not salt or what fat content is in your food. Even someone like me who does spend a lot of time on the computer manages at least 3 hours of exercise each week.

When a burger contains 50% of your daily salt needs and twice the fat it doesnt take long to outgrow your pants and if a meal requires massive amounts of salt to make it tasty then you have to wonder just how **** it really is.

I cook my own food, so sorry, I don't really get where you're coming from :P
