McDonald’s CEO eats his own burger!

[DynoSoarUs]

This reminds me of the episode of the Simpsons when Mr. Burns eats and spits out the 3-eyed fish.

As a child that grew up with happy memories at McDonald’s, I’m now horrified by the sky high prices and the horrible quality of their food. I miss those super crunchy fries from the 70s that I had as a kid. None of the present fast food joints make fries like that anymore.

Is that all he ate? He, at the very least, could have taken a decent sized bite.

Tells you something when the CEO of a fast food restaurant reluctantly takes a nibble of the food that has made him rich.

There was a piece on NPR a couple of years ago about those Lunchables. One of the big wigs of the parent company, which I believe is a cigarette conglomerate, won’t let their own kids eat them.

Well shit howdy, all they need is to post film of the (donnydickheadorangeman feeding the Olympic hockey team in the ShiteHouse) and all will be well. Kee-ryest (did I sound 'Murrican there?) I should be in marketing. Well, at least, to quote Mel Brooks, Moichandising, moichandising).

I could do so as a side gig whilst in retirement. What say you, denizens of BARF? Say what you will, my feelings will not be hurt. Hmm, I guess I am particularly bored this evening!

So you admit to eating yogurt? I guess no one could Torquemada of it.

An Instagram info graphic described McDonalds as “poison disguised as food”.
I’d say that’s pretty true.
America lives on salt fat and sugar and McDonalds exploits this to the max.

McDonald's isn't great but it's hardly "poison disguised as food" lol

Whatever afterlife Ray Kroc achieved, I hope he spends it for eternity with the inside of his mouth feeling greasy and his gut giving him warnings. For eternity.

So true... it's merely garbage disguised as food.

I'm eating a sausage mcmuffin right now. I've already died twice in the first 3 bites.

I like Sausage McMuffins. And the McGriddles.

Ever since they went to fresh Quarter Pounders, I stopped eating those. The frozen one just tasted better.

Now I'll just go with a Big Mac. I never ate a Big Mac until after the Quarter Pounder change. Big Macs are pretty tasty.

They all moved away from Beef Tallow in their fryers to maybe just as bad partially hydrogenated vegetable oils.

You actually think industrial lubricants are better for you than tallow? No wonder Americans diets are so messed up. Look up what has to be done to make canola (rapeseed) edible. Edible does not mean healthy. Rapeseed was originally used to lubricate industrial machinery.

To me eating McDonalds is like smoking.
You can get away with it for a while but each slowly shortens your life.

And they both design their products to be addictive.
The Happy Meal works on young children to develop a craving much like Juul did with their flavored vape products.

And they both design their products to be addictive.

Adding sugar (dextrose) to the salt they put on the fries and claiming it's for "color" is certainly a sign of ill intent.

Dude won't be allowed in Dutch Goose, no question.

I tried a mcgriddle once. It was too sweet for me.

Ya'all realize that the Big Mac Index is the measure of all world wide currencies purchasing power parity???

And my dirty little secret is that periodically, I get a Big Mac attack. But nothing to do with foreign exchange.

Mc Donald's used to serve fresh cut fries, yes fried in beef tallow. These were the best. Nowadays, of course, the American palate is so dumbed down by frozen products, that fresh fries and potato chips are denigrated by many. See post #11.

 

[Rtmac]

It takes some effort to fuck-up a fried potato.

Used to love MickeyDs as a kid up through the 80s, then something changed in the late 80s and every time I ate one of their burgers I'd get severe stomach cramps. Last time I got anything from McDonald's was 2001, in Beijing; I got coffee.
