They wouldn't need to add salad if their meals weren't so ridiculous.

Here, at Burger King, they do a six pack of burgers. It's literally six burgers. Wtf?

But yeah there's not really a discussion. It's like "should petrol stations start selling hydrogen" when/if hydrogen cars become more popular. Of course they will, it's what people want.

White castle sells boxes of 50 and 100 burgers.
Sure their burgers are tiny sliders, and those are meant for like bigger gatherings of folks, but what's wrong with 6 people going to burger king and buying a 6 burger pack to save some cash - since they're sold together I'm going to assume it's a cheaper deal.
Or 3 people buying it for 2 each, or any other fraction you'd like.

It comes with one fries and one coke.

I don't really care.  I just know that McDs has a damn good Ceaser salad.  Mmmm...

I agree completely.

The simple math is as follows:
More variety = More customers

I went on the McDonald's website...

Premium Caesar Salad with Crispy Chicken    330 calories
Newman's Own® Creamy Caesar Dressing    190 calories
Hamburger                                            250 calories
Cheeseburger                                            300 calories
Double Cheeseburger                                    440 calories

The chicken caesar salad has more calories than a cheeseburger, and if you want dressing, you'd be better off getting a double cheeseburger.  The salads aren't any healthier than the burgers.

that's what i was talking bout earlier

i've been watching my calorie intake (like, A LOT) so it's kind of depressing to find out that it really doesn't matter WHAT you get at a fast food place, it's all just as bad, if not worse, than the rest

Yeah, fast food isn't very healthy, even if it is cheap. The salads are the same again.

Seriously, people, if you want healthy food, make it yourself? A homemade salad from my garden takes me about...ten minutes? to make, and with a nice raspberry vinaigrette, it's much healthier and tastier. I actually think a lot of people are going to be growing their own food, at least partially.

the best kind of garden is the one you can keep in your closet

over 1/3 of the population is obese in australia, i know its the same for UK and US... so anything that can get more people eating healthy food is a good thing. For anyone that complains about the salads at fastfood places simply do what i do, order something else. Its not like they haven't taken the other stuff away they have simple offered more on their menus.
i lol'd at this the first time i saw it, and the fact that with salad dressing its got more cals then the burgers, but atleast its got the other healthy stuff, so atleast the people eating it will be healthy fat people instead of just fat people.

No it's not!
It means that you can now eat that damn double cheeseburger knowing you picked one of the mildly healthier items on the menu! >
