Actually, McDonald's now uses vegetable oil for cooking fries,
and I believe the "milk shakes" are themselves concocted from
soybean oil and various dairy by-products, with various vegetable
thickeners, etc. My comment had to do with the contribution of
saturated fats to insulin resistance. I think the meal described
here would in fact be rather low in saturates.
