McDonalds mainly offers Meat

McDonalds mainly offers Meat on bread with a tiny bit of lettuce, pickles and tomatoes. That's not that different from meals athletes normally eat. Remember, some of them NEED 5000-10000 calories a day. You can't get that many calories eating celery. Calorie dense foods are neccessary. And no one gets sick from McDonalds food. They have strong quality control and an extreemely consistent product. The real problem healthwise is that most people who eat McDonalds sit on the couch all day or otherwise do not burn the amount of calories they consume.

Read the article again. The largest amount of dead dolphins happened in the 2 months of the year before the spill.

Let's not forget that there are many times more people looking for any dead or sick animals/sealife than before the spill. Basic logic says that if you look twice as much, you find twice as much.

As for corexit, it is 0-1-1-0 on hazmat. You can put it on your skin and it doesn't do anything to you but strip the oils out of your skin. You can drink it, but I wouldn't.

It was the same dispersant used on the largest oil spill in the Gulf, Ixtoc in 1979. Yes, check it out - BP spill isn't the largest in the Gulf of Mexico. Just 2 years after Ixtoc, researchers could not document any negative effects.

Just like with these dolphins - that they cannot link to the spill through any evidence.

Commercial fishermen are getting excellent harvests from the Gulf. The 6 - 9 month break from fishing has done more benefit than the BP spill did in damage.
