    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.

    I refuse to eat in Mc Donalds - globalising, abusing, capitalist pigs!

    And the 'food' is crap as well.

    I truly dislike McDonald's, it is one of the few things that I won't eat unless starving (and at 195 lbs I am drought and famine-resistant so starving means like 3 days without food).

    I have eaten Mexican food in a place where the guard was armed, I've eaten C Rations and MREs and once I had to eat untoasted Eggos (surely the hardest thing to get down, if you don't believe me try to eat a thawed Eggo waffle without toasting or otherwise cooking it), I've eaten pizza that spent the night on my dashboard and was heated on my truck motor, but McDonald's truly is horrible. I'll eat BK, Wendy's, Taco Bell, Der Wienerschnitzel, Jack-in-the-Box, Carl's Jr, Sonic, KFC, Dairy Queen, you-name-it.

    Not Mickey Ds. Even their commercials are bad.

    Gah!

    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.
