Randaconda, does your brain have some kind of countdown built into it where you forget to act like a minimally creepy poster and just go full weirdo? At least tag that poo poo

Solice Kirsk posted:I was greatly disappointed in the Mexican food I found in Arizona. I thought all of it was going to be great since it was so close, but it's just like everywhere else where 90% of the restaurants are mediocre, but the good 10% are really good. Where did you look? Filibertos is kinda mediocre, but there's lots of great hole in the wall stands. Most of them 24 hours too. Also Chino Bandido is great. Mexican Chinese food. Good poo poo.

Soon enough the lovely health-care system that they built will be killing the boomers, but they'll still blame it on millennials. At least in America. Success!

I would love to go on vacation, but I need money for that. I am curious how promiscuous millennials are killing McDonald's though

Do they expect people to eat at McDs everyday? Or every time they want fast food?

The MSJ posted:Do they expect people to eat at McDs everyday? Or every time they want fast food? Yep! McDonalds grew into a national fast food brand much earlier and faster than its current biggest competitors, and the big reason people visit chains and franchises is consistency. You go to McDonalds or Burger King or Chipotle, you know exactly what food you’re getting no matter how big or small or isolated the town is. Back in the 80s and 90s, McDonalds could very well be the safe and comfortable option in an unfamiliar place. But now those slots are being overtaken by fast food and especially fast casual chains like Chipotle that make much better food. McDonalds never really found a way to improve on its quality, so now they’re struggling to keep up with a generation that prefers their food to actually taste good.

They are both terrible but if I was going to have to eat at one or the other I’d pick McDonalds for its salty goodness.

Back in the 80s and 90s, McDonalds could very well be the safe and comfortable option in an unfamiliar place. There's also the factor that it's our parents that grew up on McD's in the 60's and 70's, and it wasn't quite as ubiquitous as it is now. It was safe for them, and when they were everywhere, it was safe to take us there in the 80's and 90's.

It's also worth mentioning that the Yelp/TripAdvisor/etc. phenomenon, for all its faults, can at least be credited with making it easier for folks to find fare a cut above fast food.

I went to MCD few weeks ago, and I guess they started using "real" beef? Like, it was almost a real burger. Ironically, I didn't care for it. If I had wanted something like that, I'd have gone to Hardys.

Oh absolutely. McD's is great when you've been driving for 8 hours straight and you just want to eat something and fall out, but when I have some time I'd rather eat something "better." It drove me nuts when I went to Hawaii with my parents and nine out of ten meals involved a chain restaurant. When they decided we would go eat at The Outback, I asked why, and the response was "that way we know it's good."

Like, the number of "bad" restaurants that didn't meet AT LEAST Outback's standards I've ever been to is like...3? edit: also it's Hawaii there's so many good restaurants and I want to beat up your parents

If you are traveling across the world on business trips, and arrive late in the afternoon or at early night, McD is godsend because the product is everywhere of even(ish) quality, the place accepts credit card, there is no waiting in table or finding someone who cares and the staff, regardless of the language barrier will understand "Big Mac and coke". Eating local is for the days after arrival when you have time to scout around and ask locals for recommendations.

Except we have the internet so you can ask locals days in advance, there are probably dedicated communities for it. Even here on SA we've got a whole thread for it plus one or two dedicated to single cities, if not more.
