I worked at McD’s in high school (which is why I haven’t set foot in one in twenty years) and had a roommate who managed one a few years after, which was about the time they started their race to the bottom on food quality.
Glad to see they still use the metal canisters for the soda (milkshake mix did come in plastic at the time). Those fuckers were hard to move though. Need some upper body strength which as a cyclist I did not have.
