    Question McDonalds Vs faeces

    This is a tough one, I would imagine that McDonalds is slightly more healthier as it contains more salt which the body needs - then again I don't know for sure.

    I have not tried eating my faeces though I find it equally as appealling as a McDonalds and it's usually warmer too.

    After consuming a McDonalds I never feel full, and I feel like I have done my body a dis-service similar to the feeling I get after smoking a cigarette but in a different way. I feel my body saying to me, 'I'll keep it down this time but don't do that again please'.

    The avarage McDonalds meal costs three times that of a good healthy Thai dish, and it's huge sucess in Thailand is down to it's marketing campaign which is perfectly suited to Thai marketing in that it is witless, simple, patronising, lacks any imagination originality or style and relies mainly on an insipid plastic smile on a silly white face.

    Like tabacco lobbyists and the government ghosts behind 9/11 - they will continue to get away with feeding us shit because we are too busy complaining about it to actually do anything about it.

    The Thai's don't complain of course, it's western, Ronald has a white face and the food is sickly sweet and salty.

    However - the poo question is valid enough to justify this thread and also a poll, I genuinly believe there is very little difference.

    If you find the thought of eating your poo equally unappealing/appealing with eating McD's and yet have actually eaten McD's then the obvious question is:

    What's stopping you from eating your poo?

    You know, for comparison reasons like.

    The irony is that McDonald's in Thailand is a Thai company, McThai, owned by Thais and brought over from the US by a Thai who thought it would be a success.

    He wasn't wrong, the Thais absolutely love it!

    The funny thing is, that in every city in the world I've lived in, including beijing, Moscow and many others, everyone seems to love McD. Truly a global product appeal, like Coke and Pepsi.

    Why is it necessary for you to start such shit threads, you have been doing this for all the years that you have been here and never is one worth the reading, "What can I eat, I am starving to death", "How do I dry my good shoes after being out in the rain" such intellectual gems as that,

    If you do not like McD then why do you go there and buy it and eat it, are you so stupid that you have to have someone else tell you how to behave and how to keep from doing things that you do not want to do.?

    I'll give 2000 to watch Scampy eat your poo, and 5000 to film it and post it on youtube.

    Kill two birds with one stone. Blake 7 can eat five Big Macs, wait twelve hours, then eat his poo.

    Main thing is,
    Everyone is pissed at the USA for wanting to be the worlds policeman and wanting to keep people from doing what GWB or who ever doesn't want them to do, But still everyone wants to bad mouth McD or Burgerking or Pizza places of US origin and think that it is cool, when they don't have to eat it if they don't want to and it is none of their business if people who want to eat it do..

    I never ate my own shit, and ate only one hamburger in my all life (in a MacDo) who gave me an idea of what shit could taste.

    The funny thing is that everywhere in the world, in their homes in the cities people shit but it doesn't smell shit everywhere. But as soon as you come near a MacDo there is an horrible smell of oil and grease.

    I call it the 'KFC Factor'.

    All this type of crap, KFC, McD's, Pizza Hut etc, is exceedingly bad for you and about as nourishing as toilet water. Everybody knows that.

    However every once in a while I'll get a craving that tells me I want it. So I eat it and think it's not as good as I remember it and then feel sick and queasy and think it was disgusting and swear to never eat it again.

    And then I'll do exactly the same thing a few months later. And so on, and so on... It's like one of the secret herbs and spices in KFC is crack cocaine or sumfing.

    I think it's genetic and instinctive for us European types. Got to get some fat to make it through the next winter. Problem is we invented houses, heaters and get our food from other places in the winter these days. Result big fat fcukers who should be eating their own shit to lose weight.

    McDonald's Momentum Continues

    McDonald's is the leading global foodservice retailer with more than 30,000 local restaurants in more than 100 countries.

    I haven't been to McDonald's in about two years, but global increase in sales tells me a lot of people like it.

    McDonald's Momentum Continues

    Nov 12, 2007

    OAK BROOK, IL – McDonald’s Corporation announced today that global comparable sales rose 8.2% for the month and 7.0% for year-to-date November. Systemwide sales for McDonald’s restaurants worldwide increased 16.3% in November, or 9.6% in constant currencies.

    McDonald's Chief Executive Officer Jim Skinner said, "McDonald’s commitment to evolve the restaurant experience to achieve even greater customer relevance continues to deliver results. Again in November, each area of the world contributed to our strong top-line performance."

    In the U.S., comparable sales increased 4.4% for the month as consumers continue to enjoy McDonald’s Premium Roast coffee and breakfast menu selections, compelling Dollar Menu options and convenient restaurant operating hours.

    In Europe, positive comparable sales in every market generated a 10.8% increase for the segment in November. Germany, the U.K., and France drove the segment’s results with unique premium burger and chicken innovations and a variety of targeted promotional tie-ins.

    In Asia/Pacific, Middle East and Africa, comparable sales rose 12.0% in November, led by strong performance in Japan, Australia and China, as well as double-digit comparable sales increases in many other markets. Growing consumer appetite for meaningful value, expanded menu variety and extended hours fueled the segment’s November results.

    ^ I never said it wasn't increasing in popularity, but I find it worrying that it is. The world is being taken over by greedy billionaires who create destructive products.

    It's a very valid topic fatty; there's pages and pages of hidden info and debate on the net and a film was even made on the subject.

    You're hardly famous for your interllectual, thought provoking topics and have taken this thread as a subliminal attack on GWB.

    On the ground floor of Fortune Town there is a McDonalds and a KFC - neither supply a toilet - that space can be used to seat people = more money, this is no surprise as this is the case in many other of their 'restaurants' - I found it fustrating that there was nowhere I could have any real food, it was difficult enough finding a bottle of water - for that it was either Watsons or Tesco Lotus.

    Save it - take the kids to McDonalds.

    Exactly, there's something not right about it. I had a good friend who died in 2006 from cancer age 32... A non drinker and smoker - lived in Oxfordshire and loved his MacDonalds. Wasn't a fat guy but fast food made up half his diet from what I can remember.

    I have said before that the unseen evils of this world love the word 'Conspiricy' because it's almost fictional - but that doesn't mean that the unbelievable doesn't go on - we just accept it as the norm, we've become accustomed to it.

    If I ever had children I would educate them from as early an age as possible about the evil behind fast food.

    A man from Satchi & Satchi once admitted that McDonalds advertising is aimed at 3-5 year olds... He didn't want his face shown on Tv.

    I can also remember having my 6th birthday at a McDonalds in Portsmouth and getting a Happy Hat and a tour through the kitchen. For a short time it was my ambition to work at McDonalds - (along with being a hovercraft pilot and a stuntman) - an ambition that came true in 1990 when I got myself a job at one in Aylesbury just so I could do my own investigation and fuck everything up for them.

    I was of course fired after about 9 days having told my fellow employees my plan.

    They simply failed to see the latent talent, right? The smooth transitions from ketchup to mustard bottles, the pickle placement with dramatic flair, coaxing along that all-beef patty to its sizzled perfection.

    They can't cook with 5% of your passion.

    My hatred of the company does not stem from being fired 18 years ago so no need to seem so pleased with yourself. If you hadn't skimmed the post to get to the personal bit you'd have seen that my dislike for the company was not only established long before any employment but was my incentive for working there in the first place.

    ^ On yourself or on ladies?

    I guess it's threadworthy.
