McDonald's Breakfast Menu: Unhealthiest Morning Options

The McDonald's menu is full of items both healthy and unhealthy, and nowhere is that disparity more glaringly obvious than their breakfast menu. Everyone looks for something different for their first meal of the day, and whether it's a fruit parfait or a big plate of pancakes and eggs, McDonald's delivers. But don't think for one minute that just because it's breakfast doesn't mean it's not that bad for you. Here are the six unhealthiest breakfast options on the McDonald's menu, from a calorie standpoint.
