Same conclusion here, you can eat much better and cheaper in some other places.

The German stores have McBeer. And the Irish ones were still using the styrofoam boxes years after McD's stopped using them in the US.

McD's is often cheaper than "real" food places around here. And there's nothing faster, short of bringing your own lunch. Most American lunch breaks are 1/2 hour, maybe an hour.

I heard even the McDonalds in Vancouver have sushi. Of course, vancouver is really Tokyo v2.0...

Huh, I fail to see what the problem is here. McDonalds have always been like this.

McDonalds has always been manipulative and sleazy. In particular, notice how obsessively they target children via advertising.

If playing the local politics to their advantage increases profits, and reduces the amount of damage their stores recieve from protesters, than the big M isn't likely to stop the franchisees from doing it.

Hmmm, McBeer.

They even have little changes in the same country. Chicago had the McJordan for a while. Also, in Iowa, and Utah, they have packaged "fry sauce," which is 1/2 mayo 1/2 ketchup. I can't stand the stuff myself, but these guys mix their own up all the time.

Hey Chrono! I'll join you for some oh so tasty sushi!

In australia, McDonalds have the McOz burger

This burger has patty, salad and beetroot.

They are not half bad

McDonalds sure does control all of their stores. They pull the "do X or we won't sell you your food" bit all the time. Why not here?

Or do you think that the stores home-bake McFalafel from scratch?

hmmm McFalafel

and I dont see what the problem is

You're nuts, FRY SAUCE RULES!! When will the rest of the world catch on? I hate leaving home, everyone looks at me funny when I ask for fry sauce.

In Picton here in Ontario nobody dares eat at McDonalds anymore. After you've finished one of their disgusting "burgers" (if that's what they really are) your stomach aches followed by a nasty yet quick trip to the crapper! Found that one out the hard way.

But in town it's a whole lot better, it's actually edible. You can almost consider their burgers food!!!

Have ou guys ever noticed that 2 minutes after you've ordered fries from McD's that they are already gross? I wish they wouldn't use shortening in their fryers. They harden if they get too cold. Bleh.

Fry sauce = Ketchup (catsup) + Mayonaise = two most fundimental ingredients in Thousand Island dressing

I like Arby Sauce on my fries from time to time or mix up Texas Pete hotsauce with Hunts Ketchup (don't like Heinz, has too much sugar and tastes like it's been candied (eYuk).

Zokes you think McD's fries are bad try Burger King's fries... horribly dry

BTW McD's changed their Frier shortening this last summer from their age old high saturated fat "beef talow" blend to something lighter
