A constant queue of cars at MacDonalds - Am I missing out on something?

I go in McBumholes as rarely as I can but I freely admit that If I do eat there it's usually in a morning for a double sausage and egg McMuffin with hash brown and cup of tea.

I get a stack of napkins and place one on the tray. I then take a pork burger out of the bun and lay it on the napkin. So rack side is covered. I then press the palm of my hand down onto the burger and the napkins soon become saturated with greasy fat! I repeat with the other burger and then the hash brown. By the time I have finished there are 5-6 fat stained napkins plus my hand needs a wipe with a clean napkin so that's at least 6 in total!

I've had people ask why do I do it. I think the answer is pretty obvious without explanation but I get a few "it's a part of the flavour" remarks. Really ? : / ...I usually ask them no cheese slice as I think my fishing waders melted and dyed yellow and salted would probably be as convincing a slice of cheese as that stuff.

Fast food joints, particularly McGreasehole strategically place their outlets carefully in places like motorway service stations or an A road in the middle of nowhere. Food malls and on high sreets. Clever marketing and cheap gimmicky toys for the youngsters with the crappy meal and a 'healthy' bag of carrot sticks and sliced apple to appease their parents. Lol. The fuckin' carrot sticks and sliced apple are coated with MSG preservatives salt and sugar and citric acid to stop apples turning brown.

i try and go as seldom as possible an I probably go half a dozen times a year and 3-4 of those times is for hunger and convenience of location when there's fuck all else options available. The other two because I fancy going, usually in a morning to soak up a bit of ale, and if I'm hungry I'll have a porridge pot as well.

Try squeezing the fatty shit out of the burgers and you'll be amazed how much oozes out.

One opened in my town about 4 months ago, they still have long queues every day without fail? I always notice how hard the youngsters work in there, it's all go.
It's also shit food
 
I always find it amusing when people slag off big fast food joints.
The very fact they are so successful means most people don't agree with you.

As for the quality of the food. Whilst it might not be the healthiest if eaten often, there is no way people would go back time and time again if it was "shit".

Take McDonalds beef burgers. I constantly see posts on how "shit" they are.
While they might not be to everybody's "taste", the actual meat quality is actually the very best.
Before you think i'm a fanboy, i rarely buy anything from them other than their sausage McMuffins every now and then. If push comes to shove burger wise, i prefer Burger King or Five Guys.

The reason i know so much about their meat is that i have done a lot of research. I've always been into home BBQing, so already have a keen interest. I mainly grind and cook my own burgers. I'm also researching for an upcoming business venture.
I know they buy two cuts of meat that are sold exclusively to them. It gives the burgers a certain taste and texture. It isn't pumped full of anything. It really is only seasoned with salt/pepper. The fat is there to gave taste.
If you ever bothered to eat a plain Pattie from all the main burger joints, you would be surprised how tasty and juicy they are in comparison.

I do think they then ruin them with the toppings and the type of bun. But that's down to personal preference not the quality.

The outrage is it being marketed as a treat (either subconsciously or not) I'll serve you shit food at relatively extortionate prices and your kids will love you more. It is travel food that hit on kids, like little chef mainlining 3 day old sausage into the arms of our children
