MODERATORS
This post is more to engage the community on the evolving culture around fast food. Go to odd burger for vegan meals instead it’s Canadian.
Why does anyone here care? We are all boycotting rotten Ronnie’s are we not?
I mean, you could be boycotting only American-owned locations, or not paying attention to ownership at all, as much as location of production.
I don't give a damn about McDonald's but I would give this a try just out of curiosity. I have been vegetarian for 15 years and it is comforting knowing that you have at least something to eat no matter where you go.
Yes it is processed crap, but I eat processed crap to simulate meat anyways.
I thought they would use the mcplant name?
it's all highly processed crap. Less fecal material than the meat, but still unhealthy.
I'm sure they'll add fecal material to it...they have standards to uphold after all.
Yes because regular burgers aren’t processed crap…
I think their comment meant to imply everything from McDs is processed crap
You would infer that by reading the comment.
Last time I ate Mcdicks is in 2016 and only because it was the only place I could get something to eat in the town I was on a job for the weekend. It was disgusting.
The time before that was in 2004, again in desperation after a night shift and it was the only 24 hour place in a different town.
Fuck 'em.
Some gas stations have premade sandwiches and the like. Still probably processed crap but anything is better than McDonald's
For buying food at one of my last jobs, I had a choice between fast food and the save-on-foods food bar. Once I started getting sandwiches for less money that were healthier, more filling, tasted better, and were CHEAPER from save-on-foods there was no going back for me.
Yeah, that wasn't the case. And I will eat a gas station tuna sandwich before mcdicks.
1998...I was driving for 8 hours, absolutely starved. Pulled into a McDonalds in Virginia and saw a >300lb woman eating while seated on two chairs and lost my appetite.
2 chairs would be more like 400+
It was a worse version of Jabba the Hut. Frankly, the greasy odor of those places is intolerable.
Speaking of, heard the swamps of dagoba story?
Fucking hell
"it’s a celebration of bold flavor"
I'm guessing they chose to celebrate rather than including it.
When has fast food bold flavor actually had bold flavor? Onion powder and salt.
