I'm really curious where you're going with this.
It isn't called 'Slightlyincrease" size.
I've heard that the serving sizes in American McDonalds are bigger than here, which is amazing because they're already pretty big.
I can't actually picture what 7oz of fries would look like (METRIC DAMMIT. LEARN IT, AMERICANS) I can picture 44 fluid oz cause I know that a forty is called a forty because its 40oz, and that a venti coffee at Starbucks is called that because its 20oz. I also seem to remember being told that a human bladder can only comfortably hold something like 28oz at a time, so 44 oz.... thats a bit much.

I've seen people buy it. Entire families, who stick 4-5 straws in it and share it.
That's almost half a pound of fries, so imagine frying up about 1/5kg of potatoes and burying them in salt.

i don't disagree, i get all kinds of "that shit will kill ya" when i go to work or school with it in hand. I try to eat less of it when its my main source of dindin, and eat things that are not terrible for you. whats really killed as of late is a white castle just opened just over a mile from my house.
I haven't gone to McDonalds since 1998.
After the extreme derailing I caused here, I was seriously craving poutine. I got some today at the Toronto Zoo, at "Coyote Jack's". Not bad. Small portions though, so a bit of a rip off, as to be expected from the zoo. Still not great, but good. It will suffice.
Oh man, its true. Montreal poutine is the best. My very first poutine was in Montreal (and my second, and my third), and every poutine since then has just been an effort to find that magic again. One place in Ottawa came damn close.
I would love to go to Montreal again some day. I was 12 or 13 last time I went, so I missed out on a lot of the best stuff. I want to go the Montreal Comedy Festival at some point in my life, and ever since I first heard of it, I've wanted to visit Jardin de Tiki.
