European: you guys have unlimited drinks at mcdonald's?
European 2: you guys still have self-serve?
"Free ketchup, too??"
Five guys do unlimited refills, but the cup is 5 fucking quid. Similar tale in Marugame Udon.
And that's on top of a tenner each for the burger. At least they don't police whos cup is whos.
Here in Germany some McDonalds and Burger King do have self serve drink machines with unlimited drinks, but they are not that many (I would guess 10-20%). Some other fast food chains are more likely to have them, like Subway.
One of many reasons Americans are generally fat as fuck.
yea so how about spreading awareness about health issues that arise from consuming garbage instead of trying to rip on a sick society numbnuts
your slave masters care as little about you as ours do about us
I'm not a health expert. No one should take diet advice from me. There's plenty of credible information available if they bothered to look. I don't even know what the fuck you're talking about with slave masters or what that would have to do with watching your diet so I'm not even going to try to respond to that.
right because "information is available" really solves everything. we have ads for fast food instead of how to keep your mind and body healthy but yes blame the sick society and not their "slave masters"
I didn't say it solves everything. It's the first step. After acquiring the information the next step is to exercise a modicum of self-restraint and make healthier choices. I blame the individuals because everyone is responsible for their own choices. Blaming advertising is just laziness.
im not blaming anyone you are
how is me stating a cold hard fact blaming anyone?
