Yeah started boycotting them a couple years back when I started noticing their prices were fucking insanely high for absolute shit food. The garbage they pulled during COVID and greedflation just further solidified my resolve. Haven't ever missed it. Plenty of mom and pop food places Id rather support and enjoy more. There's always other food places, fast food or not.

Me who hasn't eaten any McDonalds for decades purely because it's unhealthy.
Yeah, doing my part and all that...
I've not done it cause it's bad food for shit prices. It has been a mystery, why they have been in buissnes the last 15 years.
Oh well!! So sad.
/s
This pleases me.
I hope all of these price-gouging motherfuckers see their worst sales declines since 2020. Bastards.
Oh my god ronald please shut the fuck up
Good. Keep it up!
I havenโt bought McDonaldโs since Trump won, but I still see lineups around them.
I wouldnโt buy Maccas even if they were plant-based.
They've been going downhill ever since they discontinued the McChicken Korma Naan in 1999.

It was fucking gorgeous
America side, few working class can afford buying premade food. Preparing food at home, cooking, saves money. High odds this is working in conjunction with the buy European campaign.
I'm still going to eat burger king, it still has Belgians being employed there and our minimum wage is quite high. The food is good so I support it.
It's American owned, but the business I eat at pays Belgian taxes, Belgian wages, invested in Belgian real estate, ...
I support that.
It's not the same as importing USA goods and services produced within their country.
I highly advice you people to reconsider your purchases when it's based on buying imported goods Vs foreign owned locally produced goods/services.
It's not the same thing. We WANT foreigners to pour their capital into our areas. That's good for us. Just trust me on this one.
