A slow and sad death may be occurring for McDonald’s across the United States, as franchise owners say that, “Probably 30% of operators are insolvent.” The CEO is lacking consistent leadership, owners say, and his decisions are creating an ongoing “deep depression” for these restaurants, as they “jump from one failed initiate to another.

You look out of shape
I personally think McDonalds made a mistake when they implemented their McCafe and tried to compete with Starbucks. I think they made a mistake when they got away from the children’s characters (Ronald McDonald, Hamburgler, Grimace, Mayor McCheese, etc.) and the Ronald McDonald because this is what I remember when I was growing up. McDonalds was very popular with children and unfortunately most of the playgrounds are gone and the McCharacters are gone which was a very big part of McDonalds. I know their food isn’t exactly healthy but I don’t see any harm to eat there in moderation or for a kid to have an occasional happy meal.
They should have just kept their food desirable. By reducing the salt and sugars out of their products to be more socially compliant with health requirements they have killed the goose that laid the golden egg. The food tastes like cardboard now. The old oily and salty fries tasted great, because of course they were not healthy. I will say I did like that mc rib now it tastes like cardboard also. If you take the sand which home and put a pinch of sugar on either side and shake a bunch of salt on either side and pop in back in the microwave for 20 seconds it does taste like the mc rib of old. But I can’t get the fries to taste the same no matter what I do. And a lot is the economy. I know I know people say Obama has fixed the bad economy left to him, but no one I know personally has done any better the past 8 years. I think a lot of the demise of McDonald is due to the economy, but a lot is straying from what made it desirable. Cheap unhealthy and TASTY food in a fairly decent portion.
My dog will not eat McDonald’s. ..its poison
Sad, I love their coffee , hope it’s not true .
Who would have believed it but I believe they are right. McDonald’s will probably not make it. It’s a real shame that so many will be hurt if they collapse.
