I didn’t understand how McDonald’s is still in business until last week when a coworker said that it makes her feel good, like physically good. So I guess all of the salt and sugar they put in the food actually feels good for most people. It makes me feel disgusting, along with a strong sense of self-loathing over my choice to eat there. So, I haven’t been to McDonald’s in years. But there’s always a line of cars waiting at the drive through and a full parking lot.
i mean, mcdonalds does taste good and tasty food makes you feel good, but it doesn’t taste that good and i can make very comparably enjoyable food at home with not much effort for cheaper.
I think those people just haven’t realized how easy basic cooking is.
Your body needs 3 major things to continue short term functioning.
Water.
Calories, preferably sugar, fat, and protein, in that order.
Salt.
Filling those needs is challenging to a species that hasn’t discovered nitrogen fertilizer. Fast food typically dehydrates their burgers, so you serve it alongside a soda and double down on the calories.
Brainwashing? Because after just a single hamburger, as small as it is vs how big I am, I feel like total garbage after. No other burger joint makes me feel like I overate when eating the biggest thing they sell; let alone the smallest.
home cooking based, it astounds me that fast food places and restaurants stay afloat outside of food deserts.
eating out is such a violently bougie habit

It tastes disgusting to me. Maybe because I mostly eat at home.
McDonald’s isn’t still in business because of any aspect of their food. They are still in business because it is a real estate company.
Being a real estate company doesn’t get people to eat your food. If nobody ate their food they would cease to sell more real estate.

Right? That’s how I feel too. I can feel the impurities in my veins and it’s disgusting.
When I didn’t have a working dishwasher eating out was way more appealing because in addition to no prep, it meant no dishes.
