What is the deal with kids and McDonald’s?

Come on, can’t they tell that their hamburgers consist of cardboard-grade beef? That their Mcnuggets are made from parts of chickens that you don’t even want to know about? That their fries are a nuclear bomb of sodium? Can’t they see the gastronomical disaster contained in each and every meal?

And what about the creepy clown, Ronald McDonald, always hanging around the kids? Not to mention his weird, acid-trip friends like Grimace (what the heck is that thing anyway?).

But, alas, despite my pleading for them to pick a second choice, when given the opportunity that is what they always choose. I mean, I don’t hate fast food. I’ve made it known that I have an affinity for Arby’s, I like Wendy’s fine, and I’ll even occasionally dine on the Taco Bell mystery “meat,” but McDonald’s? Yuck.

Today I ate lunch with Diana and our two kids that are sick. You can probably guess what they chose…

Oh well, at least it isn’t run by anti-gay evangelicals

I’m pretty sure that McDonald’s pays hospitals to hang golden arches mobiles in hospital nurseries. We had friends who vowed they wouldn’t let their kids even know that McDonald’s existed; we just laughed.

Exactly, Glenn. They’re everywhere!

hate on haters…….but we’d still KILL for a Chic-fil-A out west

We’re not big Chik-fil-A people, but it really has nothing to do with their beliefs. I’m just not a fan. Give me Arby’s anyday.

I’m pretty sure Chik-fil-a could donate money to to pro-serial killer groups and I’d still eat there.
