      That's a very decent question. It's listed on their site but I've never seen it. Hands up if you've had occasion to eat beef soup at McDonald's, everybody.

      Group of people that ate beef soup at McDonald's and group of people that are still alive to raise their hands have no common members.

    When I recently graduated college and was living on a shoe-string budget, I used to buy 27 pieces of Chicken nuggets, freeze them, then toast and slice them with my ramen (along with other cheap veggies such as cabbage, onions and spinach). It wasn't technically eating at McDonald's but it provided cheap meat for me to feed on.

    If McDonald's really wants to improve its image, it should provide more alternative methods on how to consume its product (such as the example I listed) rather than attempt to go all the way with fine dining cuisine. Not everyone can convert their product that way.

      Several years ago, I spent a weeklong "retreat" at McDonald's corporate headquarters as part of my ad agency "partner" indoctrination. The food served onsite was fabulous, and most definitely not McDonald's. But McDecor was all McDonald's, all the time (and all original), so after several days of exposure to beautifully rendered images of McFood, I was dying for fries.

        when I was little my Aunt worked at McD's corporate HQ. They had like breakfast with Santa or some such catered thing for families with kids that she invited us to and I was super stoked about going. I was fucking pissed offwhen we got there and it was real food.

        I gotta say, the way they made banana pancakes was a revelation. (Pour the batter, set the banana slices in, flip). Still make them that way to this day.
