I used to work there, and on my breaks my only option would be McDonalds food because I never remembered to bring my own food. A good analogy for McDonalds food would be Mexican water; it's poison to your body. After enough exposure to it however, your body builds up an immunity to it and you can tolerate eating it. Just like how the Mexicans can drink their water and be fine, but if I went there and drank it, I'd get really sick. My advice is if you care at all about your health, don't go to McDonalds ever again.
I used to drink at least one soda a day, nearly every day back in high school. On days when I didn't have any soda, I'd get really bad migraine headaches. Now, I don't drink any soda besides the occasional rum and coke, and I haven't had a migraine since. If you think about what you are actually putting into your body when you eat or drink stuff, it's a lot easier to stay healthy.
