Still, unless I am in area where there is nothing else available, I avoid chain restaurants.
The very last place I would go anywhere in the world would be a McDonalds in any case. I don't eat it at home even.
But if u r in a another country where yr grasp of the language isnt up to par, OR the local health standards may be below par, ( Insert Mexico here ), finding a "local Burger King or Colonel Sanders can save the day AND your health.
When you step into a MCDonalds, you know exactly what you are getting whether it's in mid - town Mahhatan, or Mexico City, or Sevilla, Spain.
There is an obsetity problem. Marketing and product development needs to be colorful and responsible (one mark here) and resposible. I am done complaining about McDonalds. They have done nothing to appeal to me.
