This appears to be just long enough for my brain to forget that they don't taste nearly as good as they look (and look nothing like the pictures), and leave me feeling ###### afterwards. If I drank coffee, I imagine the same would apply. McDonalds isn't in the business of selling food remember, they're selling <i>convenience.</i>

Heh you're so close.
McDonalds sells food, it's not fast food, it's a restaurant. It only becomes convenience once you use the drive-thru, because it's convenient for you. When I worked for McDonalds my manager actually used that to reply to a letter of complaint.
Tangential to the OP, speaking of bizarre 'legal'ese on the internet...
Here's what I wonder...
Guy 1: Yeah that's a great game, makes me want to play it right now. Guy 2: I'd play it but I lost my CD. Guy 1: Just go get a crack for it jeez. Op: <b>NO TALKING ABOUT CD CRACKS RRAARGHABLARGH</b> Guy 1 and Guy 2 get IP banned forever.
Yeah, and this forum is one of those.... I've only heard two explanations for this moronic, knee-jerk behavior. One is that there's a 'legal implication' and the whole forum could get shut down forever and the owners sued for billions of dollars if you use the word 'crack' in a post. And the second is that they're terrified the site will instantly turn into some sort of maligned warez-sharing piracy front.
Yet that's never happened. Ever. Come to think of it I don't even think anyone's ever been prosecuted under the DMCA for cracks in the first place. It's honestly almost like <i>Reefer Madness</i> for computer nerds - overblown hyperbolic rhetoric.

Fast Food used to be when they had a pile of burgers made sitting under a heat lamp and would whip them into a bag for you - but now all the food is pretty much made to order...
