Your Big Mac.....

From BioScience......

A Big Mac meal --- burger, fries, and coffee contains about 20 different plant species with origins all over the world.

I feel like a world traveler already.

So you're saying that the carbon footprint of a Big Mac (the fuel, packaging, etc. required to get all those components to the US and then to all the retail chains) is larger than your belly will be after you eat a few of them?

I'm just wondering if you really order coffee with your Big Mac meal??? :-)

Well no mention of carbon footprint; we call all do better consuming locally grown goodies :-)

and actually I rarely get anything other than fries at McDonald's the Big Mac Meal was as described in the article :-)
