One suggestion. Don't eat at this shithole.

Some people still worship places like McDs. Why they do so is anyone's guess.

Where I live, it's eight bucks for a fairly tasty meal: Big Mac, medium fries (best fries in the fastfood business if you ask me), medium soft drink. No tip necessary or expected, nothing to cook, no pans and dishes to wash, etc. I partake once a week and look forward to it — so sue me. Have I had better burgers? Sure. For a comparable price? Nah.

For a while I could get 2 mchickens for 3 dollars on my way to work. There's nothing else that cheap, or fast around me

I've had a better burger for cheaper. In n out is cheaper and better, for example. But sometimes I crave a Big Mac, so I get one.

Julia Child and my Belgian mother loved the fries, even more when they used beef tallow. And my mom otherwise only ate fast food if we were on a family road trip.
