McDonald's answers the uncomfortable questions about its food.

Hooked, you and I are going to have to settle for a Big Mac for now until we can get some satisfaction elsewhere.

How about trying on the costume, I'm still looking for a sidekick after the failure of the HOF experiment.

Don't believe him Hooked. Look at the size 8 feet, it's Papa but the only thing telling me maybe it's not is his dick is blue and much much smaller!

McDee's jokes aside, you can't tell me this doesn't look good and taste good

I ate a Big Mac every day for a year and lived to tell the tale. I couldn't afford groceries when I worked there for $2.15/hr so I survived on their food.

I still enjoy it every once in a while, 40 years later.

Sounds like fun.

McDonald's also plans to host “Make Friends with McCafé," which will include free samples, musical performances, and "spontaneous comedy experiences" in cities across the country.

I suspect the free coffee for the next 2 weeks are for the McDonald's in the USA. I'm only guessing because McDonald's in Canada already gave us free coffee for the last week of February until something like March 2nd.

It was a great promotion on McDonald's part. A lot of us who had doubts about McD's coffee found it to be really quite good. Now I much prefer it to Timmies...

McDonald's testing automated cashiers ...that won't demand $15 per hour

McDonald's testing automated cashiers ...that won't demand $15 per hour

Still think that strike was a good idea?
Regardless of where you are in the United States, if you stop into a McDonald's you know what to expect.

The buildings look fairly similar, the staff will be dressed in pretty much the same attire, and you'll be offered the chance to buy food that will make you spend the next four hours either sleeping or moaning as you regret your purchase. However, one location is very different. It's in Romeoville IL, and it's next door to what's known as the "McDonald's Innovation Center."

There, new products, procedures, and equipment are tested before it rolls out to the rest of the country.
'What kind of equipment,' you ask? This kind:




Behold McDonald's new automated cashiers. According to a variety of sources over on , the new machines are currently being tested and could soon roll out nationwide. The kiosks would presumably be quick, efficient, require new "green" and "teal" checkboxes on the employee diversity forms, and would never, ever, demand $15 per hour.

Contrary to what striking fast food workers may like to believe, McDonald's exits solely to turn a profit. It's not a charity, and it's not there to "provide" them with jobs. So, if it's facing a future where it's going to have to pay $15 an hour for completely unskilled labor, it's going to find a cheaper alternative.

That may be why McDonald's, and other fast food restaurants, have been using similar touchscreen systems throughout Europe for the last few years.
, increased pressure to hike the wages of easily replaceable fast food employees would end one of two ways: either McDonald's would be forced to raise its prices to unsustainable levels or the company would find a way to operate with fewer people. Since the former would destroy the business, the latter was always the obvious outcome.

...Oh, and by the way, if you're among those making the argument that this was "always going to happen anyway," what you're really arguing is: "these employees were always going to be rendered unnecessary because they're easily replaced by inexpensive machines." If that’s what you believe, you're making the case that they were never worth $15/hr. in the first place.
