[Lifestyle] My ‘naked’ McDonald’s order is ‘irritating’ but also delicious and healthy

[Desire-]

 

Kristy Hawk, a po[CENSORED]r low-carb foodie and influencer took to her Facebook page recently to share exactly how she orders McDonald’s.

But her ‘irritating’ order has left the internet scratching its collective head, mainly due to one glaringly obvious omission… there’s no bun.

The low-carb McDonald’s Quarter Pounder order 

As someone who practices the keto diet, Kristy’s burger looks drastically different to your regular carb-laden Quarter Pounder.

Thanks to a few cheeky changes and substitutions, she creates a filling meal that satisfies her fast-food cravings, without compromising her strict diet. 

She explains, “I don’t get McDonald’s often but when I do, I order this to keep it low carb.”

Kristy adds that she likes to order it on the kiosk inside as “it’s just easier that way and they seem to get it right every time when I do.”

The order in question is as follows:

Double quarter pounder with cheese

No bun

No mustard 

No onions 

No ketchup

Regular mayo

Light lettuce

Pickles

She then shared a photo of her ‘naked’ burger, where all the fillings are seen piled high on a bed of shredded lettuce. 

“I love your choice of a fast food low-carb meal!”

While some of the 5.4k comments applauded Kristy’s creation, saying it’s a great low-carb option in a pinch, others couldn’t wrap their minds around the concept of a bunless Quarter Pounder, or even the fact someone so health conscious would go to Maccas in the first place. 

“This is exactly what my McDonald’s orders look like when I go! I’m glad I’m not the ONLY one!!” one person wrote. “Great when you’re craving a burger but you don’t want the carbs,” they added.

Another said: “I love your choice of a fast food low-carb meal. When you’re on the go it can be hard to get something on the ‘healthier’ side but this is a win in my book!”
