I am frankly ashamed to say it, but here in China, I need to get one at least once a week....

In my home country, I never go, even though they have some good salads with roasted chicken breast.

Twice a year about, but I buy coffee there a lot. When ever I eat McDonalds I walk away hungry, and it used to be so expensive in China.

I don't trust Micky D's in America so why would I trust it in China?

Some years ago McD's in my country was terrible. The packaging tasted better than the burger! When they were forced to make the big changes to the meat quality in Australia all the McDonald's refrigerated warehouses were left with millions of plastic and cardboard burger meat patties. Some brilliant marketing guy came up with the idea that instead of using these tasteless patties as landfill they should be shipped to China. That's what they are still serving up in China. How do I know? The one day I went to McDonald's was the day I made that discovery and have decided to share the secret with you! Don't thank me now.....thank me after your McD's meal - and don't forget to ask for your toy!

In the States I never eat at McDonalds. Since being in China, I'll go there occasionally. Usually it's with Chinese friends who want to eat there.

I haven't been to McDonald's in China because there isn't one in this city. However, I have gone to a KFC, where I bought fries and chicken nuggets. They were just like from home. I don't like eating fast food so I probably won't eat there very often.

 I had McD's in China, I was determined to eat only Chinese, but on this day I got lost and figured what the he**, I had taken pictures of the place, so I had the Big Mac meal,,thought it was just like home,,altho always thought a law suit should be raised as to the advertised word "Big".,,, I had to ask to get a menu with this on it, the other stuff was not like home,, McKitty on flat bread, flat cat served single or stack, Poodle and Noodles, BBQ Beagle

I find KFC here too crappy to stomach....I miss Church's chicken.

This should raise your apetite, yes robots and touchscreens are the future of healthy living and universal income for your medical bills. i guess you cell phone keypad is dirtier than a public toilet would be throwing gas on the fire to mention, oh well.

Stiggs:

I used to worry about that sort of thing, especially when I first went to China.

 

Then I realised pretty much every restaurant I went to and loved would be closed down by the clean police back home - getting friendly with some of the staff and hanging out drinking beer with them was an eye opener -  and not long after that I met a guy who was a chef in several western countries who told me there's no such thing as a totally clean kitchen anywhere in the world and if you knew what goes on in them you'd never eat in a restaurant again. Yet I almost never got sick.

 

Here's a fun fact. If we hadn't spent most of our lives being exposed to the faeces etc on door handles, phones, elevator buttons, ATM machines, shopping carts, money etc we'd probably puke ourselves to death. 

 

The fact that we don't means that our immune systems built up a tolerance to it. We eat shit from the day we're born, literally and figuratively so now we're used it.
