McDonald's I'm Loving It? Not exactly.

Finally after weeks, days, hours, of the verbal taunting and abuse from the makers of the Big Mac, and the McRibb (which freaks me out, seriously another topic for another rant that's for sure) the most over-rated fast food joint in not only the United States, but all over the world I broke down.  I gave in.  I surrendered myself to Mayor McCheese and allowed my pallet to be assaulted by Ronald McDonald and friends. 

Now I have to admit.  There are some things at McDonalds I actually like;  Sausage McMuffins, Strawberry or Chocolate Shakes, and  I even recently tried their McClub Chicken Sandwich and was pleasantly surprised.  But outside of those treats, I loathe McDonalds.  And usually only eat there with my 5 year old daughter, which her underdeveloped pallet enjoys their cheeseburgers (no pickles or onions) and nuggets. 

So after the verbal barrage from commercials from McDonalds finally broke me down.  I liken the tactics from the Golden Arches to the torture techniques used at Guantanamo Bay.  I just tried the McDonalds McCafe Mocha Frappe.  I'm not a huge fan of coffee.  I enjoy the occasional Frap from Starbucks.  But that's about it.  I have had tried their Iced Coffee and it was barely drinkable.  Wallstreet told Starbucks to be concerned with McDonalds Java Fascination.  I'm saying it right now, after a year or two and more and more coffee themed creations, from McDonalds, Starbucks doesn't have anything to worry about.  The McCafe Mocha Frappe, wasn't terrible.  It was kind of tasty, but it can't stand toe to toe with Starbucks.  And now that I've finished up that bazillion calorie treat, I think I'm heading into a diabetic coma.  Thanks McDonalds.
