| Sethomas | I think you're onto something. We ALL want to be Sam Walton and Ray Croc or whatever his name is. Few things are more rewarding in life than an honest dollar made from an honest day of brutally assraping the international economy at every conceivable tier. | ||||

| Acidlump | I hate it when people attack large companies like McDonalds and Wal*Mart they are just jealous that they would never in their lives be able to start such a successfull business | ||||

 ok but just remember your ancestors I don't remember them eatting hamburgers also be careful I don't want you choking because you're not chewing young man plus how can you say it tastes good if you're inhaling it then you're not tasting it that's all sir.

Washing a piece of fruit takes like ten fucking seconds, you dirty liar. Same with peeling for that matter, a banana takes like five seconds to open. You know chimps in the wild don't generally eat mcdonalds. I hate smoking after I run, it makes me feel tired. Anyway, like I said, i dont care if you eat fast food I just think it's funny you make excuses for it when there's no real need to. You might as well just say, "I know I'm doing something but, but I'm going to do it anyhow" that's pretty much what the excuses are telling me anyway. Having health insurance and going to the doctors doesn't guarantee you health. |

I ride the bus to work. I walk across the street at lunch. Eating fruit takes considerably longer than eating a hamburger due to the fact that you need to peel or wash fruit. My health insurance pays the doctors' bills, and I pay for my health insurance whether I visit the doctor or not. Viva McDonalds!

It costs time and money to drive to a drive through. I don't really care how close to a mcdonalds you live it's still going to take ten-15 minutes to get there and back. There's lots of things you can make in ten or fifteen minutes. You might as well admit you guys are lazy and enjoy eatting shit, along with having bad taste. Not that I don't eat it or anything. Most food you just let simmer or cook while you wander around and do whatever anyway. Also the doctor's bills you pay for being unhealthy more than make up for it. Eatting a piece of fruit takes less time than getting a hamburger at mcdonalds(take that). Plus when you pay extra you're using money you worked to earn to pay for it. As I'm sure somebody in this thread has mentioned, and you yourself implied, time is money, money is time. Plus considering the fact it takes an amount of time off of your life, along with adding a percentage of torment and possible self-shittage towards the end, the long-term effects of it don't really balance out-- time wise nor money wise. Also by the way I don't know if you guys know this, and I kind of implied it towards the top, but your cars that you are driving around function off of gasoline this substance that burns away quite quickly and you have to refill it occasionally or your car will stop working and when you refill it you have to pay money. Just thought you guys might want to throw that into your calculations. I understand the whole convenience thing, though. It sucks having to clean up after cooking. Fast food does start to taste kind of bland though if you eat good food. It has no real flavor. Eatting good food that you cook yourself is way more rewarding, and it puts you in a better mood and makes you feel better. |

| kahljorn | I don't know why people think fast food is "Cheap". It's not. Paying five or six dollars for a meal is, contrary to popular belief, very expensive. My girlfriend and I have survived off of 20 dollars a week(three or four meals at a mcdonalds) before, and we were eatting pretty good, even if it was all fruits and vegetables. If you're making meals from scratch, you can generally make a meal big enough to serve at least two people for five dollars. | ||||

| AChimp | I ate at McDonalds today for lunch. My meal was super-sized (it ain't on the menu, but you can still get it done). It was damn tasty, cheap and I got it without standing in line for a long time. | ||||

Its one thing to say the corporate offices should take a greater role in making this info available. Its something completly different to say they are hiding the info. Quote:

McDonalds should be free to serve whatever garbage they want. The point in Super Size Me (at least partially) was that they weren't honest about just how shitty their food is, and they didn't disclose data prominently on calories, sugar, fat, etc. Consumers will ultimately change a company like McDonalds, and as you alluded to, they already have in a way (who wouldv'e thought 10 years ago that they'd be serving a veggie burger and changing where they purchase their beef from???). |

Blanco... cows=jews slaughterhouse=concentration camp ronald mcdonald=adolf hitler see the similiarities? I agree Mcdonald's is never going to go away but it never hurts to try and push them into serving healthier food such as what supersize me has done which forced mcdonald's into slashing supersize off the menu and creating fruit salad and frozen yogurt containing fake strawberries thats consistent of 50 different chemicals. yummy. |

My didn't they was a refernce to Dr. B's comment about Mcd's banning Kite flying. You posted so quickly it looked like I was respodnng to you. And I always asumed their uniformity was so a burger bought anywhere on earth at Mcd's taste exactly the ame as a burger bought at any other Mcds. Not, you know, uniforms. Yes. When I eat their paste I am making a choice. I don't dislike thier paste, although I find the meat flavoring in Burger Kings pate is more meaty. But there isn't a Burger King at my train station, and their knew terrifying add campaign gives me nightmares. "No doubt, but again, are images of Hitler neccissary?" Absolutely. The NPR hippie mentality I embrace runs like this. Everything good at all is like Jazz. Anything bad at all is like the holocaust. Mcds French fries are like Jazz. Mcds corporate policies are like the Holocaust. A cool breeze? Jazz. Me stubbing my toe? Holocaust. Here's where it gets difficut for me, personally. I don't much care for Jazz. |

| El Blanco | Hey, I don't care what the hell they call it. There is no chance in hell I'm considering anything MacDonalds puts out as "healthy". | ||||

| Miss Modular | I realize it's not McDonald's, but a bunch of Burger Kings have been closing down in my area. Maybe not everyone is taking to Fast Food anymore. :/ | ||||
