Anons eat a lot of fast food because they're usually young and poor. They find it fun to take pics of their order and make threads about it. It's also fun to pretend to be a shill for reasons not entirely clear. If you try it you'll probably get a kick out of it.

I don't see a problem with taking pics of food that has a purpose. for example, if you're showing someone how to cook, or if you have something really special that is worth photographing.

But taking pics of fast food? What's the point of that? It's not special, it's shit. Why take pictures of shit?

Maybe they do it to try and convince themselves that they're not eating dreadful swill. It's easier to choke down a shitty chicken sandwich slathered in mayo if you tell yourself it's a masterpiece of modern cuisine.

I don't even believe there's occasional fast food shilling here honestly. There are social media jobs for fast food chains, but I'm pretty sure they use the kind of social media you can actually bring up and discuss activity on openly in an actual corporate workplace e.g. Twitter and Facebook. I mean, how would that even work with 4chan?:
>Anon, I notice with your latest viral marketing campaign on 4chan we're seeing an incremental uplift of 10% among our "gas the kikes race war now" demographic.

That doesn't hold water. If that were true you'd hear people discussing fast food all the time irl and you don't. I've never heard anyone bring up or have a conversation about fastfood irl. I mean never. The only explanation is shills.

Real life isn't an internet forum with an explicitly set topic of "food" you retard. Also I have a really hard time believing you've "never heard anyone bring up or have a conversation about fastfood irl." Were you homeschooled and then immediately began working at a monastery? I can't even count the number of times people have discussed fast food at my office. I've heard people complain about Popeye's calling boneless wings "wings" when they're really just chicken nuggets. I've heard people talk about the McRib being back. I've heard people talk about how Subway doesn't do $5 footlongs anymore. Do you live in a third world country or something?

You're not schizophrenic and you're not imagining things either.

This board has more shills per capita then any other board I've been to, and yeah the mods absolutely get kickbacks for letting these viral marketing teams shill their products here every single day.

Ever wonder why those al/ck/ threads got banned? anbev shills paid off a mod and now they have a nice safe /beer/ gen to shill all their new releases.

Ever notice those taco bell threads where a guy buys the newest product and does a "product review"? You think that guy is just doing it for (you)s? He's a god damn viral marketer, this place is chock full of them.

Or how about those monster energy drink gens that were constantly babysat. I could go on and on but I think you get the point. /ck/ is shill city.

You genuinely have autism FYI.
Also, I notice real ads for fast food on other websites, yet on 4chan what I see isn't fast food ads but ads for stuff like "21 Awkward Vacation Photos That Will Make You Cringe" or "Get 9.99 Free Credits Live Webcam Sex." And 4chan advertising is dirt cheap. If fast food places wanted to advertise to you so badly they'd pay people to make shill threads, why wouldn't they bother also paying the couple of bucks required to have some over the table ads here?

Yes, and that's why McDonald's doesn't pay people to do shill threads here either. There's nothing to gain and everything to lose if a single laid off and disgruntled former corporate employee with knowledge of what their marketing department is doing goes to some news outlet about it. I'm sure they do have social media teams, but that's for shit you can actually plan around, measure performance on, and discuss openly in an office without getting in trouble for creating a hostile workplace with exposure to the sort of content that's on 4chan. Meaning shit like twitter.
