I LOVE Jack Honey. I JUST said that in an earlier post. :-) McDonalds USED to have good fries until they changed them. Plus they cook them in beef fat. That must be the appeal to some. I prefer making my own fries. I also prefer making my own burger. It is tough to find a really really good burger these days. Many places fall short.  

  People seem to ordering coronas and Stellas. I personally do like Stella.

There are so many better options out there to grab a quick bite at now. But , but, I am guilty of late night , 2AM or later drive through snacking on Big Macs. Haha I ate those puppies after a night of fun and drinking like they were going out of style! Now you can't pay me to eat one.    
     
    Buds? Yes they were a staple at the college parties. Haha now I pass on the Bud. Better things to drink.
McDonald's has the best fries universally (though I prefer 5 guys and Fuddruckers) and is the most convenient. Almost as convenient as liquor stores...but I guess it depends on where you live, lol.  They had their best years recently from a financial standpoint....I mean people have got to be pretending cause many a times I go the drive thru it stays crowded!  
   
 The 2 for $2.50 deal and 2 for $5 can't be beat! 5 guys and SHAKE SHACK is waaaaay overpriced, imo! Only fast casual not overprice imo is Chipotle at $6.75 for a filling burrito and Lilttle Ceasars with $5 large pizzas.  
   
   
 Millennials includes the younger folks born until 2000....I'm like they ain't drinking bud light at the keggers? In my day it was natural light and bud light kegs. What...they playing beer pong with craft brews now, lol?  
   
   
 I'm beyond college and all I usually drink is natural lights/ice and Miller lite. I don't understand anything else when you just want to get buzzed and/or drunk....but maybe's that's me. Plus I find liquor too dehydrating to really get into it. But when I do drink liquor I love Jack Daniels Tennese Honey in a glass and other liquors I'm good with the house mixed with soda.

And younger hobbyist too?

no...it's not sexual!!! I'm talking Mickey D's! They say only 20% of millennials have ever tried a big mac. I'm older than 25 but younger than 35 aka a millennial and I first had big macs while in elementary school along with Arch Deluxes in the 90's

And in college I definitely had Budweiser....but 44% of millennials never had it??!?!

 

granted, after Trump winning I think polls are lies.....and the fact that everyone is a food snob now in days because of social media in which people never had fast food and only drinks craft beers all weekend, lol!!! Since this place is relatively anonymous....figured I check here for some reality.

I have had Big Macs, Arch Deluxes and Budweiser

I don't drink beer and a Big Mac has no appeal to me either!  LOL!  I have had fast food though and plenty of cabernet :-)

But not a huge fan of Mickey D's. A happy meal when I was younger but if I had to eat a Big Mac I would have to throw it up right afters... Lol

I think McDonald's isn't food, it's poison.  I really don't get anybody eating there when there are so many nicer options.  Maybe that makes me a snob.  I can kind of see it for eating on the road because it's everywhere and predictable.  Some like predictable, I don't.

Surgeon general doesn't have a label on McDonald's, lol. Beef, bread, cheese, lettuce & special sauce seems safe...& Potatoes. In terms of weight loss cutting out Chipotle was the best idea I ever had, haha.  

Most millenials think calories don't count...So Not much I can say to my fellow people even on that level.  

People are going to Mickey D's... People be fronting & humble bragging online, lol. I'm like where are people go to for breakfast on the way to work or school!?!? Shit be a time crunch for most.

 
But I doubt in high school and/or college you never ate there. I'm sure you are just old enough to have hung out at the mall as a teen & early 20s before online shopping took over the youth.

Last time at McDonald's too? I think the food issue is in perception. They did an experiment in the link below that proves my case, lol.

New school social media got people flexing for the Instagram with drink, food, experiences etc, lol. Which on an unrelated note Instagram is worse than porn in the depiction of women imo....I gotta watch porn to find real looking women online. Everyone looks like Kim Kardashian regardless of race...It's crazy!

....it was brought to me/bought for me (like "hey I'm going to McDonald's do you want something").  
I haven't been in a drive through of one or inside of one since 2015.
But yeah no Big Mac since about 2008 ... I really only eat their Filet -o- Fish & Cheese or Artisan Grilled Chicken or have a McCafe Caramel Frappe.

McD's is as addictive, and just about as nutritious as crack.

Protein, fat, carbs & French fries are a good source of fiber. Grab a $1 side salad....100% balanced meal. Perception...People complain about health then complain about taste...Goal post always moves, lol. People must wear brown bags over their heads a lot...Cause it's still in business and I never seen a drive thru location close since I've been alive!  

I've seen Roy Rogers, Hardee's, and jack in the box close up in 90s in Maryland....But never ever McDonald's.

I come from the land of in-n-out and coronas! Even as a kid me and my siblings weren't big on McDonald's. Carl's Jr star nuggets all the way lol Big macs always looked gross to me, and still do so I may never have one.  

As far as Budweiser goes, well my best friend was the beer drinker and she only drank Corona so when I'd want one that's what was offered. I prefer red stripe or Stella for taste now if I do have a beer. I'm not a big beer drinker, but next time I grab one maybe I'll say "make it a bud" ;)

I would love to try in-n-out....seen the pics on social media many of times. I'm from the 410....land of chain restaurants for us suburbanites growing up Minus lake trout places, crab places, couple deli's, and pit beef places.

If you ever go to the west coast don't miss it. And get animal style fries! Ha. Now I'm homesick. :(

I don't know what the big thing is about lake trout here! My friends love it. I tried it and hated it. Maybe it's the name that tricked my mind into believing it's a gross fish? Whatever the case, I'm not a fan. Love the crab though!

Going to Vegas Saturday and it will be on my list of thing to do!

but I don't think a Big Mac would fit in my mouth! Hehe

also, I don't like beer so no to the Budweiser, but I do like Hard Apple Cider ;-)

Mickey's malt liquor?

Inebriated college girls will eat and drink anything you put in front of them.

I've had a Big Mac on a few occasions & am not adverse to a few Budweisers in the right setting.
