    That's not a good enough reason. Who isn't discriminant against African American Folk?

    Is that valid?

    Thanks for the numbers, though most of the money still doesn't go into the food, which is what we're suposed to be paying for. And 6 billion dolars in one year is still quite a lot of wasted paper, plastic, carton and lies, in my opinion. Also, I'm aware that most things we buy have a marketing budget, I just don't happen to agree with marketing, the way it is done today at least, advertizing a product is ok, doing it with tons of trees and polluting things isn't.

    hahaha
    you should boycott mcdonalds for the sake of your own health. How the hell do they manage to get trans fats in their burgers? Its sick to see how careless they are about the millions of peoples who eat their garbage.

    that goes for just about any fast food restaurant as well

    If you believe them they will be carbon neutral by 2010 or 2020 (can't remember).
    Perhaps most of their money does not go into food, this does not mean the food is not of sufficient quality.
    They ram that message down our throats IMO
    http://www.mcdonalds.co.uk/pages/companyinfo/foodquality.html
    If not can you show me why not?


    I know what you mean about marketing, it does indeed suck.
    But singling out McDs is kinda gay IMO.
    All the myriad of pointless packaging swamps anything McDs manage to produce and atleast they have plans to reduce this.
    Unlike the millions of little things that pass us by on a daily basis.

    We're in a thread about McD's, so I talk about them, and not all the other companies and organizations that act similarly. As for the quality of the food, anything that can't keep me full for more than 1h and a half isn't good enough for me.

    Fair enough.

    It is not designed to make you full.

    It is fast food not a replacement for dinner.

    I swear this is like beating a dead horse. When has Mickey D's every claimed that it's food is nutritious? Shit when has McD's every pulled a gun to your head and told you to order and eat? If you don't like their food DON'T EAT THERE! It's that simple, the best way to show you distaste of a company is to not spend your money there. Btw the food a McDs is cheap as shit, what are you really expecting to get out of it? Ever hear the phrase you get what you pay for?!

    Amen. I'm so sick of people acting like fast food is the root of obesity, when it's really PEOPLE THAT EAT IT. When fast food places do switch to the gun-to-the-head policy then it'll be their fault.

    :cheers2: I'm right there with ya, man. Other people don't like certain restaurants or whatever and think that just because they don't like a certain food, everyone else shouldn't either, which is just plain retarded. Or, as you said, they'll claim it's not nutritious, whereas no fast food restaurant has ever said they were.

    The only retarded people are the ones who think that someone has to eat or not eat something because you do or don't. Let people worry about what they want to shove down their throat, they have to deal with it, not you. I eat from McDonalds, Burger King, Lil Caesars, Wendy's, Taco Bell, and many other fast food restaurants and I'm healthy. It's all about moderation, but like I said, stop worrying some much about what others eat or don't eat. I just got done eating some McDonald's over half an hour ago. :eek:

    Erm, McDs do.
    They post the nutrional content of their food and the purity of their products.
    The prime meat they use and the fresh produce they use.
    All pointing to a great nutrional value and the premier quality of their food.
    Point to their food being bad for the amount you pay.


    You are right though, they don''t hold a gun to your head.

    I wish you would spend more than 45 seconds to form your opinions.
