It's sad. My wife had an online lesson with a Ukrainian lady which had to stop due to missiles.
Can you imagine living and working in that situation?
No demonstrating about Russia aggression though.
Just Palestine?

There are three reasons for not eating a McDonalds cheeseburger:
1). Vegan;
2), Vegetarian;
3). Food snobbery (if you're not vegan or vegetarian, they're quite tasty!)
.......oh, and sorry, I forgot -
4). Ronald McDonald is a rapacious capitalist ruthlessly making money off the backs of the downtrodden proletariat!
I'm not a food snob, I just find them disgusting.
5) The most important reason. There is more nutrition in a freshly turned out cowpat than a McDonalds Cheeseburger. Here is a list of reasons why most people feel a little sick after eating one:
INGREDIENTS
Enriched Flour (Wheat Flour, Malted Barley Flour, Niacin, Iron, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Water, Sugar, Yeast, Soybean Oil, Contains 2% or Less: Salt, Wheat Gluten, Potato Flour, May Contain One or More Dough Conditioners (DATEM, Ascorbic Acid, Mono and Diglycerides, Enzymes), Calcium Propionate (Preservative). onions. 100% Pure USDA Inspected Beef; No Fillers, No Extenders.

Weirdly I hardly ever think of McDonalds until someone goes on about how awful they are, then I really fancy a Big Mac.
So is it bread, beef or cheese that you find disgusting (you can ask them to leave out the relish)? The individual ingredients are perfectly OK - ordinary white bread rolls, standard sliced cheese as you'd buy in any supermarket (OK, it's not the super crumbly extra mature cheddar but it's still cheese which tastes cheesy) and (in the UK) 100% British beef.
Delicious; I particularly like the addition of a little Turmeric. I do wonder why you added in 'natural flavors [sic]' twice - was there a point there? Five separate mentions of salt seem to be part of an effort to show things in a bad light too, eh?
Still, a distinct lack of organic pulses and gluten-free muesli, I grant you.
At last! - an honest man free of foodie pretentions!
It’s not clear but each full stop in the ingredients list signals the end of a sentence of ingredients for each element of the cheese burger. First sentence is the bun and so on. Enjoy!
Would prefer another shovelful of monosodium glutamate, but all in all, yep, I'll enjoy!

I don't know what they put in the sausage to make it so tasty in the suasage and egg muffin, but it is a guilty pleasure of mine every couple of months.
I don't mind the fillet of fish either every now and again.
Both without the plastic cheese though.
Especially the polysorbate 80 which is a hydrophilic nonionic surfactant. It is utilised as a surfactant in soaps and cosmetics and also as a lubricant in eye drops.Would prefer another shovelful of monosodium glutamate, but all in all, yep, I'll enjoy!
Yum yum yummy in your tummy! 🫢
I take it you absolutely dread the idea of eating margarine then!
Anyway, I don't want to derail this very important thread on Ukraine, so goodnight!
Russia has issued a warrant for the arrest of Yulia Navalny.
I still can’t believe that her husband made the decision to return, when he could have been more effective alive in exile.
He must have been convinced that another Salisbury was an inevitability.

Ukraine Is Mobilizing More Propeller Planes To Shoot Down Russian Drones, World War I Style
Ukraine is desperate to shoot down the dozens of Russian surveillance drones that wing over Ukrainian cities and bases with near impunity every day.

I also like the sausage and egg mcmuffin.

Maybe due to the activists who are part of our population.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine is such a horrific event. Yet several posters see fit to use this thread to discuss food, cooking and ingredients. Shame on you!
My sentiments entirely.
