McDonald's big drinks are back

Super-sizing is back -- for drinks, anyway. Fifteen months after McDonald's stopped offering "super-sized" portions of french fries and soft drinks, its Chicago area restaurants are selling the extra-large 42 ounce sodas again. Getting rid of 42-ounce drinks was a key part of McDonald's highly touted March 2004 rollback of super-sizing that coincided with the release of "Super Size Me," a documentary alleging bad health effects from an all-McDonald's diet. A 42-ounce Coke contains 410 calories. [Sun-Times]
