Is anyone really impressed anymore?

"OH....89 BILLION SOLD"
"Alright, I'll have one."

How insecure is this company....

I'd like to meet the chairman of mcdonalds just once

What do you mean? As long as I can remember they've displayed they're sign as over 99 billion served. It hasn't increased....

...But I suppose they could still be taking a count.

I believe one of their longrange corprate physco babble goals is to have a MacD within 5 minutes of every person in the world. So they are pretty much bent on world domination.

McDonalds burgers taste horrible. The cheapest food I'll ever eat is Burger King, although, depending on the conditions of the Burger King you go to, mainly the ownership since it's franchised, it can also be pretty nasty. But the one by my house is good. mmmmmmm, whopper....

According to one statistic, on average an American child eats at McDonald's two times a week. Now how scary is that?

Sound hard to believe? Ponder for a moment the number of school systems who can no longer afford to run school lunch programs, so now they either contract with a fast food company to cater the lunches two days a week, or worse yet, dispense with their lunch programs all together and install food courts, just like the malls. Now what really annoys me about that is that the schools rarely get any money from this - in fact, they often have to pay the restraunt chain to come in.

Where the hell did you guys come up with the information that the total served was around 89 billion. The signs read, "Over 99 Billion Served" when I was 15 years old and living half a continent away, I'm now 23. Officially, McDonalds stopped the count at least 5 years ago and switched to, "Billions and Billions served."

The fast food wars are not nearly as horrifying as the cola wars.

"In the future, the most popular drink will not be coffee or tea, it will be soft drinks. Our soft drinks."

North American children on average consume more soft drinks than milk, and Coca Cola/Pepsi Cola are consumed in just about every country in the world. For almost every burger served in a fast food restauraunt, a soft drink is consumed, plus they are bought in corner stores, supermarkets etc..
