    And yet I still see queues stretching round their drive through. I don’t understand who is still paying so much for lower quality food.

    Maybe parents whose kids see mcds as their treat?

      If my kid ever sees McDonald’s as a “treat,” I’ve failed them.

        What should be a “treat” based on your views? Just wondering not judging or anything.

          If you tell your kid McD is something special then whenever you pass a McD it will feel a craving and want it. This is how brand obedient consumers are made. If instead you let them have McD for a week or two they will see the food for what it is.

          Fsst food chains hate this simple trick
