What I don't get is why mcdonalds, with all their clout, doesn't make value meals that are good for your health at the same time. People are lazy, so if you allow them to be lazy and eat healthy food at the same time, there must be a goldmine of potential revenue there. McDonalds could create a market for healthy fast food and dominate it for decades to come, but they just sit there like couch potatoes.
Typical innovator's dilemma I suppose.
- waterlesscloud 16y agoMcDonald's has tried to do this, over and over again. People make the choice for the bad food over the healthy food, even when McDonald's offers both.
- Derbasti 16y agoFat, salt and sugar make stuff taste 'good' because these were rare resources when humanity was young. This is the simple recipy of McDonalds and it is true for all food, including healthy stuff. If McDonalds were to use less fat and sugar they would have to use more delicate and more expensive ingredients to keep it yummie. Sadly, many people care more for simple and cheap (i.e. fat and sugar) than delicate and healthy (i.e. unprocessed food). Even though every doctor, cook and common sense would advise otherwise.
