> That comment has absolutely nothing to do with what was suggested previously, which was: IF you are in a place with at best sketchy food choices (travelling maybe?), going into a place like McDonald's and KNOWING what you're getting could be an appealing option for many. Sure it has. Agreed, it's better to know what you are getting, but that doesn't make it a good choice in any way, and it's, in most cases, a false notion that it's the only option except for not eating. > Sure, if your alternative is: Stay at home all the time, so you never ever have to eat anywhere else, then I guess you don't need McDonald's. Only that's not how most people live. That's ignorance right there. Home cooked food doesn't mean (and I don't believe anybody thinks it does) food that has been cooked in your home. It can mean a couple of things, but all the meanings boil down to "food where you've bought some good ingredients and cooked it your self (or someone you know) and are not relying on factory prepared microwave food and the likes." And no, most people don't travel for work, except if you mean pendling. If you do travel, as in are gone from home say for a week at a time, then home cooked meals can be tough, but in that case, there are most likely a lot of better options than going to McDonalds, like going to a more health-focused chain or going to a grocery store and buying some fruits, breads and so on. Makes a perfectly good, healthy meal that's also cheaper compared to fast food chains here in Denmark anyways. For all the people pendling, which is many times more than people who travel for work, there is no excuse, you could easily have prepared home cooked box meals on sunday and not have had to think about lunch and dinner until next weekend, or simply choose a better, more health focused chain than McDonalds if you don't want good, healthy, home cooked box meals.
