If you read his web site about the movie, you see this point:


3) No excuses: he had to eat every item on the menu at least once


So he did eat the items you mention, if they were available where he
was. The point wasn't, "can you generate a healty meal there?" You
probably can, but what are vast vast vast majority of people at
McDonalds ordering? The same kind of stuff that wrecked him. Go stand in
line, report back how many people were getting salads and yogurt vs. Big
Macs and fries.
