After Armageddon, the only thing left will be McDonald's buns and cockroaches. The buns will eat the cockroaches.

The fact that it tastes like sh*t is another debate.

Can't believe this FF chain lasted into the 90's.
 
As for McD, if you take out the ketchup (that's where a lot of sugar lies) whenever possible, some of it is quite pleasant to the tastebuds

:lol
 
Actually, whet I did appreciate at McD is that they toast the buns (not the case at BK or other burger joints, from my experience)

I had one of those on my way to Gencon back in 2006. I was quite impressed by how mediocre it was. How do you f**k up steak?? That greasy mess sat in my stomach like a rock. Never again.

The 90s? We still have a Wimpy in my home town, and it's normally quite busy. Our local McD's just closed down.

^^^ There's still a few Wimpy's about it seems. They used to be better than McD's IIRC.

When I was a teenager I ate stacks of McD's burgers. Every Saturday me and my mate would go into town, visit Our Price and pick up an album or two, then go for a burger. My standard order was THREE cheeseburgers, large fries and an apple pie. I'm suprise as never fat, or mad as a cow.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

I thought they got bought out by Burger King... and disappeared afterwards
 
Haven't seen any in my UK trips since the last two decades (York, Lincoln, Hull, Canterbury or London) ... probably better that way.
 
They were really disgusting in the 80's... But hey, this is UK food after all.
 
I used to do the same: head downtown Toronto, do all the record shops on the Yonge strip upwards (comparing prices), eat a Fire Pit Burger (the mega stuff with fries and onion rings, than head back down buying the albums before getting to the station and still grab another before going back home

The fact that there is one in every Walmart should be enough of a warning.

Because it belongs to Donald Trump; that's why it is called McDonald's Wink. And nothing healthy can come from this guy.
