Perhaps they will all close and families can make sandwiches and stop and eat at picnic tables along the way. Communicate face to face. Enjoy nature for a bit then get back on the road.

People who eat it regularly can brown bag it. Cooking, even something as simple as a sandwich can be therapeutic.

A slight trend is occurring in young women who want to stay home and be traditional 50s housewives. Not sit on the sofa spending hubby's money on Amazon. Gardening. Canning. Sewing. Child rearing. Living on a budget. Making sammiches for the family.

Back in the early 1980s I was dating a young lady who used to work at a McDonalds in Fayetteville,NC. I once asked her if any of those burgers every hit the floor before hitting the grill. She told me "all the time!" The manager there used to tell the employees "If you got time to lean you got time to clean."

McDonald’s meal deals have historically come with a drink and fries.

Poor fatties. You wanted an unreasonable minimum wage, and now your paradigm has been shafted.

I made 90 cents an hour at Mickey D’s in about 1963. We could eat just about as much as we wanted.

LOL... I can’t imagine being “angry” over the prices for this slop because I don’t eat it in the first place. But even if I did, my reaction to the prices would be a shrug and leaving the place, not anger.

I had this discussion 15 or 20 years ago with a black friend who was indignant about minimum wage for McDonald’s workers, insisting that “no one can live on that kind of money.”

I explained that there were always some jobs that were considered stepping stones for young people to get a little work experience and a good recommendation, so they could look for a better job and move up.

She remained indignant. People aren’t supposed to have to earn things. They should be able to stay low-skill forever and just be given more money, like candy.
