They are in the UK, the mcdonalds.co.uk says the ingredients of the fries are "Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Sunflower, Rapeseed), Dextrose (only added at beginning of season). Prepared in the restaurants using a non-hydrogenated vegetable oil. Salt is added after cooking".

[SnowyWhite]

Today:

Green tea
Raisin Wheats with Alpro soya light
Green tea
Sliced pepper and cucumber with reduced fat houmous
Mug of miso Soup
Left over veg curry with boiled rice.

Lots of water throughout the day.

It's interesting, you'd think these big chains would be consistent with their recipes. I didn't even think of that.

It's interesting, you'd think these big chains would be consistent with their recipes. I didn't even think of that.

They are strange and adjust the flavourings of their 'common' items to local tastes and flavours. The dextrose is added when the natural sugar that has been bred into the spud is at it's lowest.
McDonalds is consistant with their recipes being the same all over the country served.
Coca cola in the UK is shipped from anywhere in Europe, sometimes depends on the shop owners nationality. I knew someone who went hyper from turkish and German coke but nothing off British.

Like me yesterday... 4:30 am is too early! Did you have to be up for something? Or just had insomnia like I do?

No, I just woke up early. I used to suffer from insomnia but it has been better after taking melatonin but I sometimes forget to take it.

[Roxy]

What did you have in your smoothie?

[Quantum Mechanic]

Today wasn't a very healthy day at all..lol I almost missed my bus and hence my appointment. Do you think if I make a PB sandwich (no jam), and put it in the fridge overnight, will it keep? (Keep in mind that I need to put the PB sandwich in a bag and take it with me to an appointment to eat maybe around noon.) I don't see myself having the time to pack lunch and then get outside in time for an appointment Thursday...

Mixed berry soy yogurt
1/2 naked juice
chocolate muffin

4 spring rolls

brown rice
quinoa
vegetable mixture in red sauce

[Roxy]

Sure, I think a PB sandwich will last a few hours. It's not like it's summer and really hot out or anything.

[Quantum Mechanic]

Cool! Thanks.

[BlackCats]

Hope you get more sleep tonight BC. I've had a really hungry day today.

I'm not so hungry today, all I have had for breakfast is a veggie bacon sandwich, one half with tomato sauce and the other half with brown sauce.

I'm going to make a roast dinner tonight - veggie sausages, roast potatoes, broccoli, carrots, peas, sweetcorn, stuffing and gravy.

I will probably have cereal and fruit (and crisps) until then.
