QuoteOne thing that really pisses me off about McDonalds...
Dammit. I want some ketchup. Unless you specifically ask for it in the drive through, you don't get it. They do not ask if you want ketchup. And let's say I've gotten my fat ass a Super Sized Fries with a Big Mac (maybe a Diet Coke to show that I am health conscious), I ask for some ketchup, and they give me two packages. TWO! For a super sized fries? And a Big Mac?
ANd, they get mad because I don't want all those pickles and Onions and tomatoes or mustard to interfere with the great taste of cow carcass. SUre, I could go to Burger King or Carl's Junior and get it my way, but McDonald's is closer. So they have me pull up to wait while they get around to making it.
And they'll still skimp on the ketchup.
Not at the McDonald's near my office here. The last bunch of times I was there, they threw in plenty of ketchups, sometimes as many as five or six! I throw the extras into a big jar we have for related condiments here in the office.
I wouldn't be so sure that the bid delay making your special burger is due to them making it so much as gathering all the staff around to hawk big LOOGIES onto it... I'd check under the bun if I were you...

McDonalds is JUNK food. It's actually low quality junk food.
Eating junk food makes you feel like junk.
If you are really hung over, feeling like junk is an improvement.
There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't.

I'd say fast food companies are running scared, its starting to look like fast foods will be the next tobacco in this country. McDonalds is simply setting the scene so that they will someday be able to show their efforts at reducing caloric intake by their customers.
On the flip side, I've always thought a great argument for fast food making people obese would go something like this:
Show some evidence that obesity is genetic
Bring a little psychological evidence proving lack of will power
Then correlate that with the fact that McDonalds "temps" customers by asking if they'd prefer super sizing their meal.
Conclusion: a person that's genetically predisposed to obesity, lacking will power, cannot refuse McDonalds offer, as such their are fat b/c of McDonalds.
It sounds farfetched but people that smoked for 30+ years are getting monetary compensation for basically the same thing.

Quotemaybe a Diet Coke to show that I am health conscious
I order Diet Coke with a Big Mac (well, not a Big Mac b/c I don't eat McD's - Double Whopper w/cheese) simply because I can't stand all the syrup and sugar in regular flavored soda. It is an abomination that some places won't serve Diet Dew but they serve that nasty-ass Code Red shit.
QuoteThe elimination of the 7-ounce “Supersize” carton of fries is part of a switch from five size options down to three; the biggest will now be the 6-ounce “large” fries
Does that mean that the cost will go down too???
I may disagree with what you have to say, but I shall defend to the death your right to say it.

Oh Tuna, the only reason my hubby and I even tolerate Mcdonalds in the first place is because they have a play area for tht ball of energy we call our 3 year old. He digs on that stuff so much. I took him there the other day, and they had the play-area closed for some one day class on "important Mcdonalds stuff" My boy was pretty angry, and he was bitching them out when we pulled through the drive thru. "because of your silly class, I can't play with my friends!!" The guy handed him 2 cookies and apologized- French Fry Solution, just get 2 of those mcvalue orders of fries, and you are almost there for $1.98-Caress

Hell, I went to McD's for the first time in over a year a few weeks ago when I was in Los Angeles.....and ordered a combo that came with large fries....and holy shit! That box needed a friggin' bag of its own! And that wasn't even the Super Size! There's something like 600 calories and nearly half the RDA of fat in just that box of death! There was more in the fries than in the burger!
It's gotten out of hand...and I think they are only doing something about it because they fear the potential lawsuits in the future(similar to the tobacco companies)...but I see it as a good thing. If you want more fries, buy two!
I do McD's about once a year...then after I eat it, I feel like shit a couple hours later...then I don't eat there again for another year or so until I forget how bad it was the last time..

every now and then i have the urge for a couple of cheese burgers...well with a drink its cheaper to get the combo...the look on the cashiers face as i reach in the bag and hand back their fries is priceless...i honestly dont want the smell even in my car because i know if i take them i'll eat 1 (or 10 or possiblly the whole bag) #$*#$ and people say crack is addictive...
