    would you like fries with that?

    Even in Aspen, Colorado you can get a Big Mac and a heart attack.

    McDonald's is taking over. It's horrible. Even in China, the obesity rates have been going up like whoa -- huge contributing factor? Fast food.

    Now's the time to fight back ... by not visiting McDonalds. Thankfully, I know a lot of members here who hate McDonalds and refuse to purchase anything from them. Well done. Let's keep it up.

    If there's one thing I'd like to see before I die, it's to see McDonalds go out of business.

    Yea Fast Food is the starter of having low minimal wage skills. By getting everything in a factory, and only hiring people to do things that are simple to do(cashier, packing up a sandwich..etc) as well as having disposables, there was no need to pay high for any well Cook. This started all the other fast food chains and the way of working in which today, if you arent specialized in something that is hard to do and get, you get minimal wage or less. Therefore i despise fast food as not only did it make people obese(although that IS their own fault), it also changed the way people economically did things. Read the book "Fast Food Nation"...its a good book.

    Omg, scary clown.

    My sociology Professor likes to rant and rave about the McDonaldization of our society. I don't particularly care though, which is odd since I greatly dislike Walmart and the two companies share a lot in common. *shrugs*

    Well lets say you wanted to be a cook, back then before the McDonalization, its prolly a pretty decent job. Now because everyone can fill in the roles with little to no experience, theres no need to hire a cook that could leave you if they dont like it. Just get a few ppl to make sandwiches, some to do cashier work, and etc...basically make the jobs in there REPLACEABLE. Anyone can do it, if you dont like it get lost so we can hire another. No need for the restaruant to die because the cook doesnt like it there anymore. Also they dumped tableware and the sort and resorted to sandwiches which can be dumped. They introduced the concept of efficiency, where they can cut costs and not hiring a cook is one of them. Minimal wage now, is no longer, anything minimal. I am sure most people dont care, but the poor people of the society ladder would.

    Let's all watch Super Size Me!

    I prefer Burger King to McDonalds, because they cook their burgers in a healthier way, but I can't even eat Burger King too much anymore. Slimy greasy burgers and slimy greasy fries just don't appeal to me anymore. Now resturaunt fries, that's a different story... :<3:

    I don't eat at fast food places unless I'm going on a long car trip. The older I get, the more I realize how gross it is.

    I prefer Burger King to McDonald's. The stuff in McD's looks and tastes poorly and cheaply made. Though BK is not much healthier.
