Don’t they now serve salads??
Oh, yes, they serve salads. The last time I got a “salad shaker” it consisted of iceberg lettuce, a few shriveled carrots, and three croutons, all for some inscrutable reason packed into what looked like a drink cup.
I don’t eat meat, so for me McDonalds means eating a fries (ignoring the rendered beef flavoring), salad, or one of their delicious fruit and yogurt parfaits, which are jam-packed with sugar. Yum.
They’ve been serving “healty” stuff here in BC (and probably elsewhere in Canada, as Canada is the testing grounds for all the big food corporations like McDonalds, Pepsi/Coke, etc) for some time, including chicken caeser salads and various chicken/veggie wraps. Don’t know if it’s trickled down to everywhere in the States yet.
Also, I read once that the “99 billion served” thing is intentionally stuck like that, because the average person can read “99 billion” easier than “100 billion” while driving by.
Call me disgusting, but I love the McRib.
They never have them around here, but periodically have them where I meet my ex to exchange the kids.
Always get one when they have them there.
And french fries are best without salt. The salt you get the from the ketchup is plenty. Never understood how people could actually put MORE salt on McDonald’s fries. Ick.
Odinoneeye, you’re disgusting.
What’s more, you’re disgusting in a way that seems outrageously anachronistic from where I’m sitting.
I remember McRibs-- the messiest McDonald’s offering ever. The last time I saw one was in 1982, when they were being test-marketed here. For some reason, if you bought one, you got a free HOT SHOTS® chemical handwarmer bundled with it. (I’m not kidding about that.)
I believe there were cases of diabetes induced just from smelling those things. Mmmmm… Barbeque syrup.
