[b]Usually the poorer the more fast food they eat.  Though I don’t understand it. McDonald’s felt kind of expensive to me when I went with my kids on a road trip. I hadn’t been in years before that. [/b]

Keep in mind median household income for Americans 77K for a family. That means half the country makes less. The cultural differences between families above and below the 6 figure mark is enormous. Honestly, it feels like a bigger cultural shock than going abroad. [/quote]

In the past few years, yeah, McD's has gotten very pricey for what it is. But before that, it was cheaper than buying the more expensive healthy foods in a grocery store. So, yeah, food for the poor. Wealthy people also ate McDonald's and Wendy's and whatnot and still do. However, my family eats it less because you can essentially go to a sit-down restaurant for the same/not much more than you pay at Chick Fila or McD's or Wendy's today. Burger King is still a bargain, esp with all the coupons they put out. And I've come to prefer BK's food to McD's burgers and fries; although McD's still has the best Coca Cola on EARTh![/quote]
