Eating At McDonald's Almost Costs As Much As Filling Up Your Gas Tank. We Used To Be A Proper Country.

... those fries tho ...

Nowadays, I keep hearing "microplastics" in the back of my mind :) ... I try to minimize my visits there ...
If you're worried about microplatics, then you'd better avoid bottled water, canned goods (the linings are plastic), reheating your food in plastic/styrofoam containers, etc.
Microplastics are everywhere, and there are already a bunch of them in your body.
Go ahead and enjoy your fries, Bruh.

    I rarely eat there anymore. If I do, it is breakfast. I sometimes get it for me and my little bro if I am going to my parents in the AM. I spend $10 but I am only getting 4 items. I remember when breakfast used to cost $6 for the two of us. A friend and I went a few weeks ago for a lunch break and between the two of us, we spent damn near $20 and hardly got any food. WTF happened? This is probably way worse in the heart of Cali. I can't even imagine the prices.

    I know we ain't ever getting back to these prices and you just know back then, the food was healthier too. As time goes on, it gets more unhealthy and more expensive. They use to fry their fries in beef fat, not vegetable oils. No wonder they tasted better when I was a kid!

    McDonald's beef fat fries>>>>>>>>>>>>
    We could've still had the OG delicious fries, but some vegans sued McDonald's for using animal fat in their fries & hash browns.
    Vegans ruin everything.
