I tried going as long as I could without McDonald's. I made it to almost 2 months. There is a tendency to rely on McDonald's because it's there. The food tastes good, but it isn't good for you.
Baseball was my weakness. I took an afternoon to go see the Cubs (half-price ticket day). I succumbed to the McDonald's across the street from Wrigley Field.
Nothing is truly evil (except for high-fructose corn syrup), but moderation is key. Still, I had a Quarter-Pounder with no cheese, fries, and a milk. By most people's McD's standards, not a bad meal health-wise.
I still want to go a year without McDonald's. As weird as it sounds, except for road trips and baseball, I could do it now.
BTW, Cubs lost badly 8-0 to Pittsburgh.
