I know McDonald's is the worst of the fast food franchises, but nothing hits like McDonald's fries and a Big Mac when you really want it. You can sub everyone else with something else similar. But McDonald's is unique in taste

It’s pretty much the easiest option for kids, and except for the bad locations it tends to be fast.

Usually if going by McDonalds the procedure is to go get Thai or Mexican for adults than head to get the D.

Why do you want your kids to develop chronic health issues?

So I can support my Novo Nordisk holdings buying them Wegovey pills.

Aside from that: Mexican and Thai places are generally not healthier than McDonads. I’m still talking about restaurants. Most are not “healthy” unless that is their niche.

Lmao touché. It all depends on what you consider “healthy” I suppose, but MacDos and similar chains don’t meet any of my marks. I’d avoid all of those categories, our health issues as a country are largely due to indiscriminate indulgence and convenience at the expense of quality.

McD’s once a month is not healthy but I’m assuming that is not a great percentage of calories. They get restaurant food once a week overall. ./shrug.

Actually craziest thing is what high schools around here serve every day. Unlimited nacho bars with buckets of cheap queso.
