So i have noticed this and its bewildering

people go into mcds and get food and then go back to their cars in the car park bit and eat their food staring forwards like mentalists


wtf is this about? They cant sit down in comfort and warm and eat and not stink up their cars?

I have never seen people do this but maybe they just want to eat their food and listen to the radio or something rather than sit in a noisy restaurant :shrug:

LT is talking about people who go into the restaurant to order food, then leave and sit in the car and eat it..

next time you visit McDs have a look in the car park, its revolting, windows all steamed up, cramped and staring ahead like lunatics stuffing burgers into their gaping mouths with the food all perched on their dash making marks and the like

oh, yeah it's weird then, because then you can just do the drive thru if you are going to eat in your car anyway ;)

I see people doing this sort of thing. They stop outside of a takeaway shop then take it into their car to eat it :omgno:

i hate the smell in McDonalds restaurants, to the point it almost makes me want to puke when I enter. I don't have this issue in any other fast food restaurant .... maybe that's why they do it?

well that cant be it as it is entirely unsuitable for eating a fast food meal and that is why they have wide and spacious tables and chairs so you can eat in warmth and comfort

Cars are warmer than McDonalds with those bloody doors opening and closing every 2 minutes :nono:

Eating in the car sounds better and cleaner since some people don’t clean after themselves.

Im not taking about drive thru traffic, its people going in to the restaurant and then repairing to their car as the drive thru traffic goes out another exit and the surely no one would drive back round and park and eat - that is WORSE!

Hmmm...

- Hard cheap seats, kids running about and their parents swearing at them, mouthy cackling teenagers...

vs - Soft seats, your own music, not having to deal with other people

:think:


The real question should be; why would anyone want to sit IN a McDonalds :worry:

Oh do your McDonalds have those little ipads by the kids party section to keep kids entertained. Ugh it turns my stomach when I see little 4 year olds eating, hands in mouth, up their nose and then playing on the touch screen tablet, it's so gross

We have those touch screens for orders as well but there's a section as well where they hold kids birthday parties with kid table and chairs and those ipads with games on in there

It's a 40 mile round trip for me to go to McDonalds. I make great hamburgers at home. And I don't have to sit in the car to eat them.

LOL eating miccy d's in the car is superb :) not having to deal with awful customer noise & people bumping into you etc
relax in car and stuff your face lovely jubberly that way we can drip secret sauce down ourselves without anyone noticing..

PS LT your post describing people in the car's makes me worry that you are a car park stalker! perhaps you should spend more time INSIDE instead of spying on the people in their cars ;)

Actually, the last time we went to KFC we deliberately parked right next to the drive through ordering point, facing it, so that we would be staring right at everyone as they ordered [emoji23].

no

no one is allowed to eat anything in my car as any normal person would dictate

..the only thing I would probably ever have at McDonalds would be a milkshake, which I probably would take out to drink, walking around...in general though, I’m quite OCD about in-car eating and wouldn’t want anyone to eat a meal in my car because it leaves it smelling stale..
