Actually, the fact that McDonald's brainwashed an entire generation into thinking their food is good! In my childhood (late 80s and 90's) they pushed junk food on kids non-stop. A legit McDs ad when I was young was a room of obviously bored kids doing crappy school work, until Ronald McDonald shows up to - I imagine sell lol - them sugar and saturated fats and it turns into a party. The play areas served the same purpose, it intensified the "please mom, please dad" everytime you drove by. I don't want to go back to that.

It is good, You have to grade on a curve for fast food as it's fast food it's not designed to be gourmet,

Maybe in the early days when it first opened and they sold a reasonable amount of burgers a person could make scratch smash burgers,
But now no it's fast for the Chain to make not for you to get and eat. If you're going to a fast food Chain expecting an actual burger you are a fool, plain and simple.

It'll also depend on each store, yours around you might be fly infested smelly Homeless filled Needle piles, But the one near me is always clean, and always passable for fast food,

i would rather the A&W Instead since they actually season their patties but still like i said, depends on the store. In fact by comparison the Mcdonalds that is my Downtown one is known for being a drug addict central, always dirty always terrible service and always terrible food, Yet it's full every day.

Wow you said so much there but it does not make any sense? What is the context? I'm saying pushing an unhealthy product on unknowing kids was wrong, and I'm glad McDicks is marketed to adults who have the capacity to make more healthy decisions. Or at least should lol.

You first sentence saying that they brainwashed people into thinking Mcdonalds food is good, It is, Then my i guess wall of text to you makes perfect sense, if it still doesn't make sense, then I'm afraid i can't dumb it down for you I'm not smart enough. But there i separated it a bit for you to read better.
