The fast-food giant said during the company’s Investor Day presentation Sept. 23 that it is launching the McDonald’s Media Network, a new advertising business that will allow other companies to place ads across McDonald’s digital platforms and restaurant screens.
McDonald’s began testing the idea in August 2026 at 450 company-owned U.S. restaurants, the chain said during the presentation. This does not include franchisees which are independently owned and operated.
The pilot features advertising from other companies on digital drive-thru menu boards after customers place their orders.
Between this, dynamic pricing, and the god awful food and service, there is no reason to keep eating this trash.
Ignoring McDonald’s entirely, what chain restaurant doesn’t have meat on the menu?
There is Slutty Vegan as one I’m aware of because of the memorable name. Only a few locations but spread out.
I assume there aren’t many vegan/vegetarian chains with a lot of locations because I couldn’t find any with more than a dozen locstions, but they do exist.
Note: I eat meat and also enjoy a lot of meatless meals.
You cut out a lot of unethical businesses.
