I was in my local McDonalds last week and noticed that their current kids toy was a book. So, yeah, sometimes they do those there too - they are always changing what toy they give (often some movie tie in) and sometimes it's a book. The toys are basically advertising, so it depends on who McDonalds has a deal with at the moment.

Best to just get rid of all the chains and franchises all together and replace them with mom and pop shops. All chains do is mass wealth into the hands of the few.

[@ub3rfr3nzy94]

@@practicaliching2311 All Mcdonalds franchises go independant. All franchise owners join a United Mcdonalds Directorate and vote on decisions. The factories that once produced the Mcdonalds food are collectively owned by the franchise owners. Each franchise is free to set their own regional pricing, no one person can own more than one franchise. It'd be like a weird franchised cooperative. That would be a solution to companies getting too big, at least then the wealth is more evenly distributed and makes it's way back into the economy.

I tried russian version of Macdonald's during this weekend in Sain-Petersburg and was surprised that it became much tastier! French fries was fresh and delicious while previously during last years it was disgusting... Shrimp Roll was bigger then usually, taste good and the same as usually. I don't remember prices very well because I rarely eat fast food but it seems that burgers became cheaper. We bought two burgers for 300 rub ( about 5$).

[@bron-sconcess.10]

I thought the food looked good enough. The building seemed a bit dingy (floor, external, both not McDonald standard), but it was bright, cheery! Fast food isn't generally nutritious, it's high calorie snacking in an impartial space. The 🥗 helps! In London Macdonald's is like a human car park. What's more, you won't even get turfed out, if you don't buy food (even a cup of tea, buys you a table)!

[@marlenegold280]

Potatoes are a staple in Russia.

[@velfyz]

Dude, how in the world you think that new french fries are better than previous and everywhere in McDonalds. There are too soft and soggy, sometimes covered in oil too much. And the taste is completely different. Mb a bit more natural. But the overall experience is worse. Burgers are the same, that I agree with.
