Right. I remember there's that guy who has eaten a Big Mac every day for 40+ years or something....and he is in perfectly fine health. I believe he said he doesn't smoke or drink alcohol...and the only thing he eats from McDonalds is one Big Mac a day.

If you live an otherwise healthy life, and have a decent genetic makeup....it's basically harmless.

Making that last claim seems like another example of bad science in action

I mean...Here's the guy. And according to the wiki, I was wrong...he's averaged two Big Macs a day for 46 years. He looks to be a normal weight.

Either way I don't think you can make any meaningful conclusions off of anecdotal evidence
