I think a lot of their revenue comes from travelers who are unsure what to eat/where to go in an unfamiliar environment. With the old train station Mc D, you know pretty much exactly what you will get and how long it will take. It's about standardization, predictably and in a sense reliability that the brand brings.

It's popular because it's convenient and consistent. But it's designed that way.
Think of just their basic burgers, high in salt, fat, and sugar, with a strong hint of sour from pickles and mustard.

I noticed that about mcdicks, they really emphasize the sweet and sour combos, layered onto the high salt and fat.

Working in the restaurant industry you learn that you aren't making food to be 'healthy' you're making food to taste good.

a mcdouble used to be 1 dollar 10 years ago. It should be a 1.25 now counting for inflation but it rose way past that for some reason. I'd say your right and the current mcdicks is a rip. I only ever go if I'm craving a quarter pounder anymore, and that's like once every 3 months.

Do people still pretend they hate fast food?

Growing up, the cool kids used to like to say how they never watched TV. Then it was “I would NEVER shop at WalMart”.

Now everyone including these same people are glued to their phone screens and getting daily packages from Amazon kek. They are good consoomers and just focus on bullshit race/LGBTQ issues to look and feel unique and an activist. They get to enjoy the worldly comforts of capitalist consoomerism while pretending they are enlightened.

>nutrient void shit
I dont understand why people who dont understand food post on /ck/. The actual problem with McDonalds is sodium and (as of late) price. This isn't the early 1990's, McDonalds pumps their food with vitamins precisely so it has nutritional value beyond being a hunk of dubious protein sandwiched between molded white bread. I'm talking vitamin K, vitamin B, potassium, calcium, etc.

Its ridiculous that mcchicken is $1.89 and the mcdouble is $2.50 or so. Inflation is the wrong way to say the rich is still getting richer every day. What happen when burger flippers get 15 + an hour the customer pay the price. Anywho mcdicks is not worth it anymore when you can pay just a little more to eat at a local place.
