It's been a while since my last instructable. Anyways, I been trying to eat healthier, and I know many of you are thinking "then don't eat at McDonald's" but like most Americans McDonald's has us trapped by cheap, fatty, and salty foods. I have been to the MceDonald's website and they actually have a nice MealBuilder there that tells you all ingredients, calories, carbohydrates, and let's you custom build a healthier meal. I highly recommend it.

Ordering

Okay it's not the healthiest, but it's better than hamburger and fries.
