But it's great when you just have like 2 euro's in your wallet , and you're really in need of a McFlurry or something.

Maybe cold beer is better?

I don't support the fast food industry. I just want it to die off and then maybe normal restaurants will lower their prices. I always like to eat in chinese restaurants. They are my favorite. The food is great and plentyful and the cost is tiny(like 7$-9$ CND). Why would I consider paying the same for crap like McDonalds?

Dont like it. It has less to do with their food than with principles (*looks for principles*). They are getting smaller and smaller for the same money(because apparently 60% of americans cant stop themselves at 1 mcdonalds meal), contain more and more calories everyday and and are usually packed with 12year-olds trying to impress their first gf by buying her a chickenburger and fries. Would you girls be impressed?

Apart from really hungry people who cant even speak because they salivate so much.

BTW, did you know that a mcdonalds average meal with a chicken hamburger, salad, fries and a coke contains approx 1600 calories?

And that an average male needs 2500 cal, and an average female 2000 cal a day.

So if youre getting 2 meals you are waaay over your daily intake and therefore getting fat.

I concur! Although the Chinese food in America seems just as bad for you as the McDonald's.

I beg your pardon? They must different kind of chinese people in America because here the chinese food(from restaurants) is better then any native restaurant.

Most Chinese restaurants where I'm from are owned by Koreans and it's very greasy food.

I usually just stick to Dim Sum or just go with authentic Korean or Japanese food when I have an oriental fix.

I dislike the food in McDonalds. But I do think that as a business, it is a great one - you see, I admire success, wherever it's to be found.

My views exactly. The food is not your first choice, but you recognize the name, and you may choose it over an unknown place, in a pinch. Obviously many people do like McDonalds, as evidenced by expanding waistlines, and the increasing number of their stores.

Weird. I thought there was less grease then most restaurants. Plain rice and some duck or pork, no grease on any of them. Also vegetable and noodle soup, still no grease.

I am aware of those bad chinese food places though from the american movies, I agree those look sick, but they kind of fast foody as well, especially the takeouts. We don't have any of those where I live.
