                           WHY SHOULD WE HATE MCDONALDS


     Our wonderful government, aided and abetted by the liberal press and the health care nuts has, for many years demonized that evil, omnipresent and powerful company known as McDonalds. The complaint against them, they are the principal cause of obesity of the masses. The sedentary ones who stuff themselves with greasy and sugary treats apparently are blameless.

     For reasons that elude me, POTUS and his wife as well as the US congress are obsessed with fat  and strike out against it wherever they can. In spite of their efforts,
McDonalds ( and other fast food outlets ) seem to be thriving. How can that be ?

   We wonder  what can be wrong with top grade beef, chicken and pork,often with lettuce and tomatoes on a first class bun. The french fries might be a bit suspect but they are so good ( yummy ). A small order, split two ways keeps the dreaded calorie count at a reasonable level. One may even order salad if one so desires. This is all served quickly at a reasonable price. They even have a slightly smaller hamburger for only $1.00. And look out, Starbucks, a fine cup of coffee for $0.50 !

     Is it any surprise that there are many thousands of McDs all over the world ? These are mostly privately owned but closely supervised franchises. If you have not done so, I suggest that you give them try

If I didn't know better I would think you owned stock in McDonalds.

I have to disagree with most of your post but particularly with the top grade beef and chicken part. Read "Eating Animals" and get back to me. McDonalds is not even mentioned but I believe it would change your mind about the animal products we are presented with.

Great to see a new post!!

I'm with Amy - glad to see a new post, but I personally hate McDonalds (their french fries are good - but how can they screw up something as simple as a hamburger?)
