The world's most well-known fast food corporation is in damage control mode after an internal resource that the company created for its employees embarrassingly advised them to stop eating its own food offerings. CNN reports that the McDonald's corporation officially shut down its so-called "McResource Line" after an official nutrition guide posted on the site warned McDonald's employees that eating a burger, fries and a Coke -- the staple meal at McDonald's -- is an "unhealthy choice" when it comes to food.

All fast food chains are almost same, nothing special! But i doubt any one of these beat local specialities of Pakistan! Around the world, these fast foods are the cheapest everyone can afford it. But its not the case for Pakistan market, where these are considered posh eatery which they certainly not!
