A Tick For Macca's, But Is Your Ticker The Winner?

February marks the anniversary of the award by the Heart Foundation of its prized tick endorsement to McDonald's for nine reduced energy, fat and salt meals. One of these is a hamburger, salad with Italian dressing and an orange juice which has 61 per cent fewer kilojoules and 37 per cent less saturated fat than what the foundation obliquely refers to as a "popular McDonald's medium meal" - hamburger, fries and Coke.
