I always thought that I had understood them up until the point in which I actually worked at one. The way the conduct themselves, from the inside out really is like no other fast food restraunt, really it's quite amazing. I'm not sure anyone can really appreciate it though =S oh well.

You can't slam a whole company just because some people are too irresponsible to manage their own diets. Should we hate Crisco because if you eat nothing but Crisco, you'll blow up like a balloon?

I try and eat healthy as much as I can, but living on a college campus with a mandatory meal plan, the meals get a little repetitive and boring, and aren't always that great for you. But it is nice to every once and a while go out and get something quick and cheap when you don't have a lot of time. It may not be great, but everything in moderation, And its better than skipping meals because you don't have the time to eat all day. What's so wrong with getting a little unhealthy food sometimes.

Normally people say that the clown and all that are the reason so many children are pulled in, but once you take the clown away it's labeled as "stealth." People eat there because they are lazy and don't give a hoot about their health. It's convenient and edible enough to make it a preferable option to people. If you hate McDonalds don't just blame the corporation, but blame all the people who give them their money. PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, PEOPLE!

When you are busy, and you need a quick bite to eat, and you don't want to gamble about what you are getting, then going to McDonald's is often a good idea. Is it healthy to eat there? no, of course not. But there are far worse problems then eating non-healthy food (e.g. not eating any food). McDonald's is consistent, food that is served quick.

It's a company. If people don't like it, they can stop eating there. Did anyone ever FORCE you to eat a BigMac? Mcdo actually tries out different styles of restaurants all over the world. I saw an interesting program about it on the Travel channel, or maybe the Food channel not too long ago. They have a drive-thru for snow skis in Finland, I think. And a very chic one in the middle of Rome! Why not? They may want to upgrade their image in a few years... Wow, why all the mcdo hate? It's a company.
