McDonald’s is proof of the susceptibility of most people to propaganda. I don’t understand how anyone can still eat anything there. It’s not good, it’s overpriced, it makes you feel like shit, and you’re hungry again 2 hours later. The nostalgia factor is definitely real because once a year or so someone will suggest getting it and I’ll think, hey I used to like it, and then every single time it’s incredibly subpar food that usually isn’t even made well because the staff hates their life. Stop fucking buying McDonald’s, Jesus.
It’s not just nostalgia. Parents will take kids to McDonald’s as a reward and then they get a toy and it’s very quickly ingrained in them that “McDonald’s = fun”. Where I grew up we didn’t have it so for me it was always just another place with bad food but I remember once overhearing some kids on a bus talking excitedly about going McDonald’s and what they are going to order there. It was like a special occasion for them.
Idk, it’s better than Hesburger and those were the only real fast food options till KFC and Burger King came here around 5 years ago. Sometimes you just want something you can eat quickly in the comfort of your car and drive on.
The real crime is how expensive it is compared to 5 or 10 years ago. It’s no longer significantly cheaper than a meal at a sit down restaurant.

What are you even saying? Hesburger is the only decent fast food chain. McDonalds tastes like dry clay compared to it
Pretty sure it’s mostly so 12 year old boys can go there together and eat slop that doesn’t taste of anything and feel like a grown up for an hour.
It used to actually be fast food that I can see the appeal of if you’re in a hurry, but now it’s just poor quality slow food.
