What do you think of mcdonalds food?

>> No.6588629

Nowadays they focus more on the aesthetic quality of their restaurants than the quality of their food. I've seen McDonald's that look like 3 star restaurants but once inside I can feel the grease and oil and memories of crawling around in an unclean play place come flooding back.

It's been so long since I've had it. Last time I ate there I felt physically depressed and got this dark dull migraine. The time before that I got a big Mac and diarrhea. Never again.

Although I suppose if I was forced to eat there I'd probably order fries and maybe a grilled chicken sandwich.

Otherwise, low quality food for low quality people.

I ate there last saturday for the first time in probably 3 years.
It was around 3pm, I hadnt done shit all day, but after eating I felt bloated, sluggish and tired.

I actually took a 2-3 hour nap because of it.

I think it tastes really good. You can't eat it (fast food in general) all the time because it will get old fast and isn't very smart, but sometimes nothing tastes better than a Big Mac some fries and a cola .

Most of the time it seems to taste like the inside of my own mouth with a little more texture. It seems as though the older I get, the faster the fix wears off and I find myself sitting in a pool of sweat and shame.

When I was really fat I'd go there semi regularly. I don't ever go there anymore.

When I began my diet I'd crave it, now it seems gross. Occasionally I'll want the mcmuffin but then I remember after I have it I feel tired and sluggish and it actually ruins my day.

I don't know wtf they put in them to make you so tired. Maybe they max out the sodium and sugar in the bun and meat? Like your body spikes insulin or something then you crash?

I guess it makes sense? Fat people love carbs and kinda need them to keep kicking their happy feels up. Fat people are more likely to eat McDs therefore make it for them.

it's refined carbs soaked with grease. when they fry things at mcdonald's, they probably don't maintain proper temperatures and the oil soaks right in. top it off with a glass of sugary orange juice and ketchup, probably close to your max daily amount of fat and sugar just from breakfast.

As a kid I thought McD's was a treat, and something special. A Big Mac was a big deal. My mother cooked almost every night, and we could afford to have steak and roast chicken at home, so we didn't go out to eat very often.

When I got out on my own I tried hitting McD's as a treat, but it didn't taste as good as I remembered it, and left me feeling sluggish and thirsty after eating. So I just stopped eating there entirely.

That was years ago. As a kid the place had some appeal, but as an adult I want nothing to do with it.

When I was a little kid I would totally have agreed with you. As an adult the only thing the Big Mac has going for it is that it's cheap. And that's not enough to get me to buy it, because I don't like the way I feel after eating it.

From what I remember, the burgers were always unsatisfying, and the fries are garbage when they get cold. I've also never been able to finish one of their drinks in what I think is a reasonable amount of time.

However, I went there a few months ago after years of generally avoiding the place on principle because it was late and I was really hungry, and I had a couple of items from their cheap menu, like a cheeseburger. I don't think I felt boated or very uncomfortable at all.

As long as I look at the food as a $3 meat-like snack, it's pretty alright, but I wouldn't go there for an actual filling meal unless I was desperate.

Actually, there's one that's just a short bike ride from where I live. I think I'll pop over there and get a snack later on today.

My Dad works at McDonalds as a manager and brought me a McDouble with some fries while he was dropping by. It didn't taste good, but it didn't taste bad either. Towards the last bite I got sick of it and didn't feel like finishing it. I felt depressed and had a headache for a bit. Same thing happens with their $1 Sweet Teas.

I enjoy it on the off occasion. Big Mac usually, maybe a McChicken or chicken nuggets. The fries are decent, but I'd never get more than a small size and even after that I still feel gross. I used to get happy meals all the time as a kid and the dollar menu made up a significant part of my diet in high school, but now I am a mostly sophisticated adult.

Loathe it except in the middle of a long, cold motorcycle ride. Nothing revives my spirit like a portion of greasy fries and a cola.

UK here.

Expensive for what you're getting. A big mac meal will cost you around £5.00 here ($8ish?)
They aren't filling and make you feel hungry and ill all at once an hour later.
I had mcdonalds about a month ago for the first time in around 4 years and it tasted bad.
Somehow dry as fuck and tasteless. I remember them tasting much better around 15 years ago.
Fries are overrated and the pop varies from each franchise. I'd had coke in some places that was like black water as they spread the syrup mix so thin.

It's a bit too expensive now.
Fine enough for exactly what it is, they're nice enough to hang out in.
But I'm in Canada and there's nothing awful in our chicken and burgers.
