      I mean, you could be boycotting only American-owned locations, or not paying attention to ownership at all, as much as location of production.

    I don’t give a damn about McDonald’s but I would give this a try just out of curiosity. I have been vegetarian for 15 years and it is comforting knowing that you have at least something to eat no matter where you go.

    Yes it is processed crap, but I eat processed crap to simulate meat anyways.

    it’s all highly processed crap. Less fecal material than the meat, but still unhealthy.

      I’m sure they’ll add fecal material to it…they have standards to uphold after all.

    Last time I ate Mcdicks is in 2016 and only because it was the only place I could get something to eat in the town I was on a job for the weekend. It was disgusting.

    The time before that was in 2004, again in desperation after a night shift and it was the only 24 hour place in a different town.

    Fuck 'em.

      1998…I was driving for 8 hours, absolutely starved. Pulled into a McDonalds in Virginia and saw a >300lb woman eating while seated on two chairs and lost my appetite.

    “it’s a celebration of bold flavor”

    I’m guessing they chose to celebrate rather than including it.

      When has fast food bold flavor actually had bold flavor? Onion powder and salt.
