    I’ve always considered McD’s to be the bottom of the barrel as far as fast food.

        When it was cheap it was just cheap garbage that destroys the planet. Now it’s expensive garbage that destroys the planet.

      Which country are you from?

      Here in Italy McDonald’s is top quality; probably the best American fast food.

          I know. That’s why I said that’s super good for that horrible category. KFC is dirty and oily, Burger King is shit-tier both in speed and cleanliness, even though I think their hamburgers are the best

        McDonalds is easily the worst fast food out there, except for their breakfast, which is surprisingly decent. Their burgers are the worst in the biz.

        If you think McDonalds represents the best, you should try Culver’s.

          We don’t have Culver’s in Italy, that’s why I specified that.

          And McDonald’s is different in Italy, both in their menu and the quality of the ingredients they use.

              Yes, I tried it in the US and it was way worse. I’m not saying that the Italian one is delicious, but it’s still better than all the rest.

              We don’t have many American fast foods in Italy anyway. McDonald’s, Burger King, a few KFC’s, very few Starbuck’s’ (about ~30 in all of Italy, mainly aimed at tourists and wanna be social media influencers) and less than a dozen Five Guys.

              We also used to have some Domino’s Pizza but they all failed less than two years after they opened.

              “Perhaps Mcdonalds is better over there.”

              Seriously? The US having much worse quality food, especially fast food, is common knowledge. How are you not aware of this? American fast food chains, and also other american food products, wouldn’t sell at all outside the US if they had the same barely edible quality as they do in the US. Many things wouldn’t even be legal to sell in much of the world because many ingredients and levels of quality are banned in most other countries, especially in Europe. It’s so odd to see anyone that doesn’t know this.
