McDonalds struggling

[Sk@mcfc]

There was a story years ago where someone had accidentally dropped a McDonald's burger behind the fridge and couldn't be arsed to get it. Years later the thing was retrieved and it looked no different from the day it was made. The moral from the story is don't eat their shit food it isn't good for you.

Or always keep a McDonalds burger for emergencies

Big mac and sausage & egg mcmuffin are more than acceptable.

I drove by one the other day ( breakfast time ) it was packed, two lanes of cars filtering into one

Was it the only one around for miles?

There are 12 around these parts, all within a 35-mile radius, plus a whole load of other places. Fast food saturation.

At one time the choice for a burger was the local Charcoal Pit, Wimpy or Maccies. Charcoal Pit being acceptable but all still shite.

Now you can go and get a proper big dirty cheesy oniony spicy real quality beef burger with top class brioche buns and interesting burger sauces that actually fill you up, at an array of different specialist burger places.

Whether it’s Almost Famous, Honest Burger, Burgerism… they make Maccies redundant in my world, don’t know why anyone goes there anymore, the meat in the burgers is dry, crumbly and pretty much pathetic.

Price wise not a very fair comparison tbf.

You haven't lived until you heard those great words from one room to another "Check that chip pan" :)

There was also the "last burger in Iceland' where a bloke bought one on the day they closed down their last restaurant, intending to make a museum display showing it rotting over time. To his surprise, 10 years later, it barely looked any different. It's what Michael Pollan called an 'edible food-like substance.'

McLying cunts should be done under the trade descriptions act

Not at all, the town has probably six McD’s plus countless other fast food places….. countless.

It's probably actually where the myth comes from. Mcdonald's are full of artificial ingredients but the reason for the lack of decomposition was environmental conditions. E.g he stuck it in a vacuum within a glass box.

There's enough fat and grease in Mcdonald's burgers that it simply isn't plausible that they don't decompose in an open environment.
