I thought I'd create a thread were we can get things off our chest, and finally rant about something that others may feel like ranting about too.
Todays rant is aimed at the company that I think is very deserving.

This is the company largely responsible for making America fat.
I would like to know how this company seems to get away with being the single biggest creator of litter in Britain.
Anywhere that has a McDonalds has a huge litter problem. The streets are full of Big Mac boxes, empty paper bags, food wrappers etc etc.
It's disgusing.
Yes, those that drop the litter are the main culprits, but the drive through scenario was started by McDonalds, and then came the open window / throw litter attitude by many motorists. Kids are notoriously bad for dropping litter, even within yards of a bin, and they just love the fact that when you buy a McDonalds, you not only get paper round your burger, but the burger is then in a box, the box is in a brown bag, and in the fold of the bag is a large receipt.
Does a burger really need all this packaging ?

Then we have the staff that are preparing your food.
Spotty, snotty nosed teenagers who have just left school, and have as much customer service skills as a snail.
McDonalds are exploiting our kids, by having a policy of employing young people so they can pay rediculously low wages, and our government turn a blind eye to it all.

Let's talk about the quality of the food.

The picture above is a typical bill board advertisement that McDonalds use to tempt you to buy their product.
The reality

How on earth do they get away with it?
You order food that looks great, only to receive a microwave heated, wilted salad piece of slop instead, and what do we do? ; we as a nation turn the other cheek, say thanks, and eat it anyway.
Trading standards should be constantly on their case, but for some reason they are not.

Tobacco companies are no longer allowed to sponsor events, such as the snooker tournaments etc, because the government has apparantly got our well being at the top of their agenda.
Why is it then, that fast food companies such as McDonalds, can advertise anywhere they want to, or sponsor anything they want to, yet fast food is equally responsible for thousands of deaths each year from heart attacks to over weigh issues.
There seems to be a McDonalds on every superstore car park these days, and that stupid clown is taking over the world slowly but surely.

Should they be allowed to sell junk food specifically marketed to our children with clowns ?
They are constantly giving toys away with their product, so it's plainly obvious that our children are being targeted by this company.

Is this a good thing for our kids?
Shouldn't they be at home eating healthy food and being taught about the risks junk food poses to them?
It's much easier for irresponsible parents to pick up a drive through meal and feed the kids this crap, than spend time in the kitchen preparing something healthy.
RANT OVER !
McDonalds =
