Last week I ate at McDonald's for the first time in 15 years...what an awful experience.
The chocolate shake was far to syrupy -- made we want to go home immediately and rinse with Listerine. Each fry tasted as though it was covered with 2000mg of sodium -- they should call them salt sticks with a hint of starch. The Big Mac's bread tasted like cardboard.
How is it this company is still in business?
A few days after this awful experience I had a similar meal at a different fast food establishment, and for a dollar or so more, got something that was 20 times more palatable.
I love the fries, cheeseburgers, and Filet-O-Fish sandwiches (minus cheese). They also have some great salads, and the wraps are pretty darned good too.
Not bad for the occasional quick meal maybe a couple of times a year Not something i would eat on a regular basis, too much salt and the burgers tend to get rather boring. http://cdn3.bighealthreport.com/wp-c...4/07/12345.jpg
Theres better options out there. For example here in Montreal for about the same price as a quarter pounder fries and a drink i can get a smoked meat sandwich/fries/coleslaw/pickle and a drink= http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_JUFTd9kMlP...0/P7032765.JPG
McDonalds has been attempting to improve their image, varios foolish slogans and ad campaigns, but they're failing to fix the one thing that needs fixing, the food. I do eat there at times, maybe once every 2 or 3 months, but it's not my first choice.
McDonalds, as well as other similar fast food joints varies from place to place. Some are actually very good while others make you want to throw up. It's a crapshoot.
I always order my burgers with a special requirement, like no onions for example, and you'll generally get a new fresh cooked sandwich.

No clue! I also find it gross.
But their sales are actually declining so I think people are at least considering what they put in their body.
