        I really don’t get the appeal. It’s the nastiest fast food, period. It doesn’t taste like food at all.

              always had the consistantly cleanest of anywhere I would stop on the road. Could be bad but generally that seemed to be from someone really recent.

            Cheap? no.

            Fast? not particularly

            Consistent? Not true. Sometimes they manage to get the patty in the bun.

            also clean bathrooms on the road.

            Very no. Haven’t you heard of hotels? Just walk in and ask where the restroom is. Whoever you ask is just gonna assume you’re staying there.

            Hell, even if they know you’re not staying there, if you don’t look like there’s at least an 80% chance you’re going to both smoke crack and shit on the floor in there, whoever you ask isn’t paid enough to care. And anyway, if you’re going to both smoke crack and shit on the floor in there, that’s what Starbucks is for.

              Im just giving my experiences and hotels are not common on the road in between cities. You have a point on cheap which has reduced my fast food consumption by like 99%. Inflation has greatly improved my diet as it seemed to hit the cheapest stuff most heavily so the healthy and better choices while still more expensive, are not that much more relative to years back.

          Maybe this is different because I’m not in the US.

          But the McDonalds here is tiny.

          Like I pay ten bucks for a burger half the size of what you’d get at any other place.

            Here in the US everything I’ve ever gotten from McDonald’s looks worse than its equivalent elsewhere. The burgers are always more smashed and soggy than the burgers anywhere else. The fries are always more limp than fries anywhere else.
