It would be nice if someone would occasionally go down to a McDonald's, get the latest copy of their "Nutrition Facts" bulletin and update the data set MCDONALD.SYS with any revised information. The data set does not currently contain material on the salads, breakfast foods, or muffin/Danish foods. McDonald's also provided the following "Recommended Daily Values" information, which you may wish to use for your analysis.
