The further away from local capitalism and neighborhood bartering you go, the worse things get. Mcdonalds doesn't care if they sell something nutritious and healthy, they just want your money... A local mom-and-pop needs your business and wants to maintain a relationship with its customer base. - The Great Awakening

As a former Chef...every single chain restaurant sells the idea of quality to the people while riding managers asses for pennies from their food and labor budgets.Meanwhile employees barely get livable wages and hours while giving many of their civil liberitys while doing so thanks to the employers employment contracts...wanna change fast food? The margins of profit available in foodservice is tiny...if 15% of a chains customers left for good many would start closing stores...change your habits and enjoy the local options available and get over the need for a drive thru.

We mostly cook our own food. You know more about it that way. In the Philippines eating out is only slightly more than making your own. Rents are cheap and so is labor. Even McDonalds is a lot cheaper. Mostly selling fried chicken, not burgers. 4 years ago it was 1 piece of chicken, 1 sm fry, 1 rice, and 1 sm drink for the equivalent of 2.25 that was their promo meal.
