The new Sriracha Chicken Sandwich is pretty great. Also its 3 dollar bagel sandwiches at breakfast right now, and they're still doing dollar any size soda.

I am 100% opposed to this movement.

A lot of poorer older people in the US depend on McDonalds for a sense of community.

And just where would you put all those people employed by Micky D's anyway?

They're the laxest employer imaginable, so for those with crazy records or spotty employment history, it's all they have.

McDonald's
...
The exception that proves the rule that free market provide high quality desirable products with a good service.

The cause of the obesity is greed and laziness. McDonald's is just an outlet for that

In moderation, fast food is not bad for you.
They have some excellent salads that I buy. Grilled chicken as a topping with their low-fat vinaigrette dressing. That is a healthy meal.

Same.  I am a fan of the Big Mac.

I want McDonalds to collapse.

And then something to rise from the ashes that is exactly the same in every way except there's no sesame seeds on any of the buns. Food allergies, man.

I've always thought the fish sandwich was pretty legit, since we're mentioning not bad items on the McDonalds menu.

I don't think it's any worse from you than any of the other burger spots, they just get singled out since they're the most successful.

McDonalds is a corporation of people who make a profit off of torturing innocent animals.  They should be put in jail.

Personally, I'm all for the slightly less draconian measure of banning the sale of fast food products (like McDonalds) to those under 18. Adults should be free to eat what they choose, even if it kills them.

You're going to hate hearing about the time I was staying at a motel for a week between my old lease starting and my new lease beginning and basically subsisted on McChickens and sausage biscuits.

What about the 5 million other fast food brands or junk food companies? I guess you could tax junk/fast food and use that to subsidize fruits and vegetables if you really want to try something. That is if you have no problem using taxation to regulate behavior. Of course we do it a lot already so probably not a big deal. I would benefit from the move so I support it.
