Just what we need... more obese people in the US.
------------------------------------------------------------
If you're one of those people who fights over the last french fry at the bottom of the bag, here's some good news. A new McDonald's location will soon be offering all the french fries you can eat.
The brand-new Mickey D's is coming to St. Joseph, Missouri, and the place is already being billed as "The McDonald's of the future." And bottomless fries is only one of the unusual things the restaurant's developers say the place will have.
The location will have 6,500 square feet of space, with amenities -- including table service, couches and armchairs -- and an expansive play place for kids.
It'll also come equipped with self-serve ordering kiosks, which McDonald's has been experimenting with for a while now to speed up orders and make them more customizable.
Some have raised concerns the kiosks might be a way for McDonald's to cut down on labor costs in the future. But the company building the futuristic McDonald's in Missouri says the kiosks won't affect how the joint is staffed.
The new restaurant is the latest step in a subtle reinvention McDonald's has been rolling out since new CEO Steve Easterbrook was introduced last year.
One of the company's new ideas was all-day breakfast, which saw a sizable boost in sales after it was introduced -- though franchises initially complained the more complicated menu led to slower service.
As for the new McDonald's, customers will still have to wait a couple months for the future to arrive. The new Mickey D's is set to open in July.

self serve, the hebrews will mess that up real quick

greasy fingers all over the touch screen display....

Their 'food' is already lukewarm in the beginning, plus there are many places with way better burgers.

Some days when it's late at night and I'm sitting at 7,000 calories I dream of something like this to hit my goal of 8,500 to maintain muscle mass while I cut.

if you follow Layme Norton advice, you will see that you can reverse diet from 2000 up to 8000 cals per day, and only gain minimal fat, and the cut back down on 7500 since you have now reset your metabolism

Nowhere is there worse "food".
McDonald's is the indisputable champion of edible garbage.

A piece of potato sprayed with a mixture of sugar, fat and salt, then fried and salted. Like weaponizing anthrax.
Why are we spending so much money chasing ISIS or Al Quaeda? Who is more deadly?

I would immediately sell any shares of KFC that you presently own.

TA will be here momentarily to explain how wrong you are.

The fat will get fatter. Nice.

McD's is going to embrace the new $15 minimum wage by having zero employees. It'll just be a ATM with a door: pay your way in and then the rest is self-serve with machines just cranking out the food and dumping it onto tables for the Hebrew cattle to feed. Welcome to the Progresssive Future!

They won't have greasy fingers until after they order and eat. But I bet you'll be able to find traces of feces on the touch screen

I am glad I pretty much gave up ALL fast food. Disgusting shit.
-
Unnecessary IMO because a large fry is more than enough if you are also having a burger.
-
This can't happen soon enough.
They picked a perfect city for this venture, it's not a huge population, nor tourist destination, so they have time to work out the kinks before they unleash the fry buffet nationwide. I'm excited to see the competitive pricing.

I can see the brews moving closer so they can have breakfast, lunch and dinner there.

McDonald's fries are awesome.

Yeah diabetes and heart disease!!!

How about you just have it every now and again. Can't people binge every now and again without getting fat? Genetics must be a bitch for some.

For me, I can eat it more then every now and again without getting fat.
The issue is that if I am eating clean for a while, then having greasy, disgusting fast food, I get horrible gas, I feel bloated and get diarrhea.
So, all-in-all, I just stay away from it. There is absolutely nothing appetizing about McDonalds. Ill just make my own burger!
And most of the time, your burger comes out looking like this:

You really think Americans are going binge every now and then? Being that we are the 2nd fattest country.
Also binging or cheating is not the same as gluttony.
