McDonald's is back with supersized sodas

Good grief, if they don't want it ,don't order it, these nazi food police need to take their agenda back home.

Thank you for making me pay for two diet soda's that are basically no calories instead of one at a great consumer price savings. As if the government is charging enough on gas for my car, now you want me to pay more for my soda's. What's next?

this comment is to beansprout who knows nothing about starbucks at all and probably cant afford to go there either. Keep your mouth shut.

This is absurd. Americans, I being one, are forever shifting the blame. I'm fat because of McDonald's, they say. Not because I sit on my rear watching TV, swilling coke from the bucket, and stuffing my face with lard-coated french fries.

Many of you seem to believe that the government has no right to regulate products (gargantuan sodas, cigarettes, liquor, etc.) that have been linked to health hazards.
Obesity is the fastest growing health hazard in the U.S. and preventable complications arising from it are rapidly becoming one of the leading causes of death.
If you choose to eat foods that contain more cholesterol, calories, or sodium than you should ingest in a single day, you should NOT expect me as a taxpayer to pick up your hospital tabs when you end up with diabetes or a heart attack!!

I have the ice tea w/ lemon wedges. No sugar or sweeteners. No problem.

They need to get a grip and stop blaming MC D's for people being fat its not thier fault. I'm glad that thier big soda's are back. Good For MC D's

Okay, here is my issue with this whole thing.. If you are so concerned with your health, then what the heck are you doing at McDonalds?! It is not McDonalds responsibility to monitor your eating habits, it yours! This is just one more way that the American public is trying to make someone else responsible for their actions. It makes me sick! I know that if I go eat fast food or drink sodas that I am loading up on fat, calories, and all sorts of crap thats bad for me. I choose not care, it is each persons individual responsibility to take care of themselves. So McD's, bring on the Hugo... I know what I'm getting myself into.

Ronald Mc Donald is definitely going to hell for this one.

its about time
how dare anyone cave to the nazis who want to limit people's choices or prescribe behaviour

I'M glad we are finally being told what we are drinking and putting into our bodies. I heard of a man who almost lived off soft drinks - drank them constantly all day long - the Big litter sizes - and he almost died because his body got no nurishment.
Anyways, soft drinks do not quinch thirst - they only make you more thirsty. Water is what the body needs and craves when thirsty.

Who says you have to get caffienated, carbonated soda?

In our country, the land of freedom, we have free choice in all things legal. Why is everyone so willing to give up their freedoms? If you dont want it, dont buy it.

What is wrong with a 42 ounce drink at McDonalds? anyone should know if the cup is filled with ice,you probably won't get more than 10-15 ounces !! Think

Once you remove the Ice, you end up with a 12 oz drink

I like super Sized unsweet tea with lemon. Is that bad for me. If you get a medium and get five refills you might as well get a big drink. What's the big damn deal. I say give the public what they want.

Ever hear of DIET soda? May not be good for you but it's low on calories.

I am an adult, once in a blue moon I need a little extra food, because i missed a meal. I know when I am hungry, but I also know what foods like this can do to me, but i have control. I am far from being overweight and I am mad I can't super size it when I'm really am hungry. I weight 124, 5'3 , 4 kids- one 6 months ago~ so why can't I Super~Size ? It's my choice and shouldn't have to say no~ ps done the whole buy an extra small fry- its actually alot more food wise if you buy one large fry and an extra small fry to make up the size difference ~more then one supersize fry. So did the taking of the supersize resolve it- or make it worse for people who have to have more but really can't afford (healthwise) to get two fries and an extra burger?

Eventhough they claim and sell it as a 42 oz. beverage its really only about a 20-24 oz. beverage because they always load it with ice and leave the top inch of beverage out. Even when ordering it with light ice it still is only about a 28-30 oz. And if its socially irresponsible to sell anything that is bad for anyone then there would be no businesses in existance anymore due to the fact that NOTHING is good for us anymore. LOL

me and my mum share the mcd's big soda and dad and bro share there.
2 soda's for 4 people.

better then the reg price.

and besides i don't like pop that much i rather drink tea r jucie.

let other pepole have there chice and leave them alone!!

i already have enough people telling me what to do!!!
