“Unmasking the Most Overrated Fast Foods: What Fans Don’t Want You to Know!”
However, marketing has always been an incredibly important component of the expenses of any fast-food chain. For example, McDonald’s invested 1.9 billion U.S. dollars in advertising in the United States in 2022, according to Statista, thereby becoming one of the leaders in advertising costs among American companies.
So, yes – when buying almost any fast food from a popular chain, we pay not only for the food, but also for the advertising.
I don’t know if this is just a regional thing, but my area suddenly has two Nashville Hot Chicken places in every d**n shopping center and they are all mid, at best.
McDonald’s. It’s not cheap. It’s not fast. It’s not good. Whatever I want that McDonalds sells, someone has a better one. And it probably costs about the same or less.
Dunkin. I’m a New Englander so we have them eeeeeeeverywhere. I want to love them. I really do. But the food they have is pretty terrible not to mention the coffee.
So please feel free to read this selection to the end and maybe add your own comments – after all, as the ancient Romans wisely said (while eating antique fast food with bread soaked in wine), “truth is born in debate.”
