    McDonalds.

    It's a name widely recognised the world over. Some love it, some fear it, some loathe it. Some would hold their wedding there if they could. Some probably have. Others are more likely to try to burn the place down, or at least smack it up a bit.

    So what's your view on this 'wonderful' franchise? Do you enjoy dining there now and then? Do you avoid the food as if it were laced with arsenic? Do you equate the owners with tyrants, and thus boycott the restaurants until your anti-globalization protests are taken into account? Do you like to dress up as Ronald McDonald and whip your little brother/sister with a sock filled with chicken fat? Do you care?

    Do tell.

    I can eat McDonalds every once and a while but most if it is really gross.

    Wendy's is the best "fast food" chain I think. THey use all fresh ingrediants. Plus, they have great salads and a fruit bowl now too! Healthy alternatives are very important to me.

    I like to indulge in fast food once in awhile. However, when I do it is usually chili from Wendys. Sadly, I have a friend who is a former Wendy's employee, and despite what he has told me, I still continue to eat there.

    what has he told you?

    I worked there for a while and unless certain chains are not following the rules, there shouldn't be a problem. The one I worked at was super strict and I'd eat there anyday.

    I know about the whole "burnt meat in chili" thing. Our rule was that if a pattie got cooked so that it did not touch the outside of the bun, it would be used for chili. But never if it was crunchy or black- that was thrown away. Most of our chili meat was cooked up fresh at night and then frozen right away to keep it fresh.

    I will eat there rarely. I would eat more but I used to work for them and the way they treat staff is inhumane but I do like the food from time to time (like, once every 3 months!). If I go to a fast food place, it would usually be Burger King because the quality of the food is 10 times better than McShit. You people in the US don't have it but Greggs bakers is the best by far. And they've only taken over the UK and not the world ... yet!

    I eat there occasionally. I haven't seen "Supersize Me" but I would imagine that if you ate ANYTHING morning, noon and night....it would eventually kill you. Fast food was not meant to be consumed in that quantity.

    I own Super Size Me. It really made me think but that said, I would still eat there occationally because having every once in a while won't cause any long term health damage. I used to be able to eat it at least once a week but after watching that, I can't eat it nearly as often. But when I worked there, I ate it almost every day I worked there (2 or 3 days a week) until I realised I'd put on 2 stone in weight after 6 months.

    the only things I like there are their fruit thing and hashbrowns oh and the breakfast sandwich thing they have there without the meat. But if I eat there I feel gross and greasy and like my clothes fit tight for a few days so I avoid it.
