McDonalds Boycott!

**Autumn Gust** · January 31st, 2013

Well, friends and family think I've been boycotting McDonald's ever since I read Fast Food Nation about seven years ago. However, I have a dirty little secret to confess: I go through the drive-thru about once a month for the Filet-O-Fish sandwich. And, sadly, that's the extent of my double life...

I haven't eaten in a McDonalds since about 1987. The food just grosses me out. Same goes for Burger King, KFC and all the rest. I just cook my own food.

I knew there was something with Burger King and horse meat!

I've always prepared my own lunches for work, no matter where I work, so why should the food being free encourage different behaviour? I always try to avoid packaged salads and sandwiches where possible, they are often laden with unnecessary calories and fat, so I prefer to make my own. And also, people are aware of the consequences should they eat too much fast food, it's their choice to purchase it so no I am not ashamed of being in a job that provided that service. I was raised to earn my own money and always work, there's no shame in that.

True.

I used to like Burger King but I got "the trots" after eating one of their veggie burgers. Should have gone for that flame broiled taste of real meat I guess

Hi!

Burger King - flame broiled! Uhhhhh....NO!

I tried them twice. (Just to make sure.) I can actually taste the *gas* *kerosene* ...whatever they use , in my burger! Nope!

Besides, I make the most delicious, wonderful, burgers at home!

Peace.
