If McDonald's food is unhealthy, why does it continue to rise in popularity around the world?

It's bizarre how fancy McDonald's is in places like Japan & South Korea compared to the U.S.

Because 90% of people are really, really terrible at caring for their health.

Because other countries actually put in effort of using quality ingredients, while the U.S. just serves dogshit in a bun. Last time I went I just felt fucking sad. I miss those big chicken wraps they used to sell. It was the only thing tolerable. Snack wraps are unwilling and over priced, and they took away the best flavors.

Because McD doesn't only sell fried food now.

It's not even the unhealthy part. There's better tasting alternatives, but McDonald's will always have a line. People are just programmed to eat that shit.

This

we have a difficult time thinking of alternatives because we see this so often.

there are thousands of burger chains but the vast majority go to mcdicks and get the same thing they always get

they don't want to think
and they don't like change

What the fuck are you talking about? It failed in Vietnam and some other Asian countries.

Even on countries where McDonald's food is shit people keep going. On Argentina it became like a symbol for idiots, as 20 years before it was the big deal. Now people go just to pay the worst burger the could get for the highest price. It's shit
