I'm really wondering where you live that you encounter all these problems and see the need to constantly post rants. Peoples' taste varies on food, but none of those problems exist here. Regarding the breakfasts, McD is probably the safest place I can go in terms of food hygiene.
I live in America. I used to live in Europe but move back about 8 years ago. It’s the top story on Drudge, and based on the comments at the CNBC link, I am not alone in my evaluation. If my opinion is a “rant”, then so is your critique of mine. This forum is all about news stories, threads about culture, music, entertainment, sports, the economy, politics, etc. Once posted, people give their opinion and comment on the subject matter. Perhaps you missed that trend.
That's crazy. Where do you live?
With regard to breakfast, I'm surrounded by dozens of diners and other independently owned family-style restaurants that make a great breakfast. McDonalds is a last resort. Maybe if I'm driving cross-country, I'll stop in for an Egg McMuffin at an interstate rest stop if there are no other options. Otherwise, I would hardly consider them a viable breakfast restaurant.
