I work on Naval Station Norfolk. On base, we have a McDonald’s and a Wendy’s. I quit the McD’s due to the service.

They closed their drive thru and inside you wait up to 5 minutes to get your order.

At the Wendy’s, if inside you place your order and barely have time to get the ice in you drink cup before they have it ready. And the drive thru moves fast.

And for anyone wanting to get their geek on, some food for thought (heh heh) from 2023...

Content and Availability of Minerals in Plant-Based Burgers Compared with a Meat Burger

...In summary, except for soy and mycoprotein burgers, the total iron and zinc contents of the plant-based burgers were significantly lower than those from the beef. Likewise, zinc bioavailability was significantly lower from plant-based burgers, while iron bioavailability was comparable between the meat-containing and the meat-substituted burgers. Thus, individuals consuming plant-based diets need to be aware not only of the foods that are rich in iron and zinc, but also of the foods to eat in conjunction to maximise mineral bioavailability. Only the mycoprotein-based burger showed comparable zinc bioavailability to beef, and thus it could be suitable alternative to a traditional meat-containing burger. Future studies should now investigate the nutritional and health effects of meat substitutes.

What a misery. Just eat yer beef.

The current burgers are already meat free, but no one wants the McVomit.

No, they’re confident that you and I can fight the Russians. And fund the war, as well.

McRib!!! I don’t know what it is, or what animal it came from, or if it even came from an earth animal, but I like the flavor!

(I eat McDonald’s, I just don’t tell anyone, right?)

Yep. It’s coming. Or already here. As Gates has noted, introducing ‘vaccines’ into our food supply is a fine, fine way to “overcome vaccine hesitancy...”.

Interesting abstract. Burgers were sourced from a major supermarket in the UK.

McDonald’s has a place in the food landscape. There have been exactly two edible items from their menu, in my experience/opinion: first, their ‘Big Breakfast’, consisting of scrambled eggs, a sausage patty, hash browns, and an English muffin; secondly, their chicken sandwich (don’t know if still on the menu...), simple, on a whole-wheat roll. These items, back 20 years ago when I was on the road alot, were reliably tasty, CHEAP, and widely available. Many mornings waking up in unfamiliar towns in the lowest priced motel available, a good day started out with that breakfast, some coffee, some OJ. All before sunrise, and it’d keep me going for the entire day alot of the time. At today’s prices, I’d be packing my own food...

If you want a burger, order a burger. If you want grass clipping posing as a burger, order a plant sandwich.

“customers did not want fake meat”

Businesses stay in business by giving customers what they want. Customers can always go to a competitor.
