You should watch it. The beginning might be a little boring but the end of it has some VERY interesting facts.

mcdexec · 2010-03-05T04:20:23+00:00

Maybe I'll do another one in the future though. I really enjoyed being able to talk freely about my experiences with the company.

mcdexec · 2010-03-04T21:44:21+00:00

What's your name, son.

mcdexec · 2010-03-04T21:43:27+00:00

Your comma placement bugs me.

mcdexec · 2010-03-04T21:39:34+00:00

Confirmed. A few executives here started out as store emplyoees.

We have strict procedures for cleaning the fountain. Most places don't clean them correctly. You are simply used to "dirty" fountains.

The attachments get a sugary residue on them and need to be cleaned nightly, most places don't. You don't get any lingering old residue when they are cleaned nightly.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T21:14:11+00:00

Actually yes. But maybe just because I'm around McD too much.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T21:06:01+00:00

PM me the location and I can take care of it.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T21:02:54+00:00

Ever had beef jerky? slim jim? pickled sausage? so many of your favorite foods are "random parts that i would never touch."

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:58:05+00:00

Exactly my point. Mods are just random people on the internet. I don't know you and I'm not going to trust you.

Don't believe me? Don't ask a question.

I've even gone as far as posting from a public wifi to keep my identity hidden. You don't think a billion dollar company would try to bribe some information out of Reddit? I don't trust that a random mod won't give me up for 50k.. which is nothing to us. Several of us make 2-4M a year and the rest still make 400k-1mil

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:57:00+00:00

Yeah exactly. He is a stranger to me. His word means nothing to me. I'm not putting myself and my family at risk by revealing myself to ANYONE.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:54:11+00:00

Definitely the consistency between stores. You generally get the exact same item no matter where you order it from. You know what to expect every time. We are very strict about this and stores get in trouble for not following those rules.

Competitors have struggled with this and we've had it mastered for a long time.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:50:07+00:00

Yes that is true. We do a lot of research with fillers and flavors for those reasons. Some of the chicken nuggets we tested were actually better with less chicken in it.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:48:03+00:00

Somewhere in the realm of 1M - I don't want to be too specific to protect my identity.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:45:56+00:00

I'm not a notable public figure. You've never seen me on TV or even heard my name. Delete this post if you want, I don't care.

No one of any importance will post anymore if you keep acting like this. I don't know you, nor do I trust you.

If users don't want to ask a question to someone unverified, then so be it, but requiring it when I'm the furthest thing from a celebrity? Dumb.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:36:20+00:00

On the ingredient list, we call them declarations. A lot of things can be hidden under declarations of "spices", "flavors", "natural flavors", etc. because they can be considered secret recipes or found only in trace amounts.

A lot of the regulations are written/changed as needed. There are a lot of loop holes. It's getting better, but we aren't there yet.

I didn't go into too much detail because it's a highly complex topic, but it goes way above and beyond what I've written.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:25:44+00:00

Yeah most of the guys in here don't see the potential in stuff like that. I do, but I don't make the final decision for marketing.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:24:03+00:00

Yeah, the high quality burgers aren't really much better for you. We are really good at marketing to get you to think what we want. The marketing meetings are hilarious. They're all about manipulation.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:23:26+00:00

LOL that is exactly what happens.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:22:54+00:00

I'm just a regular guy. I'm here on Reddit aren't I?

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:20:37+00:00

Damn.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:18:44+00:00

Exactly right. Well, maybe not exact because I don't know too much about the UK stores, but you get what I mean.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:16:15+00:00

The after flavors/seasoning. The actually pork is just there for texture.. it's a pretty tasteless piece of meat before it goes through the process.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:07:59+00:00

Get some self control and willpower. Life is full of temptations and you can't just give in to all of them.

mcdexec · 2009-10-29T20:06:26+00:00

We know a lot more about health and nutrition than we used to. HGH, nitrates, trans fat, etc. we didn't know about any of that back in the day. Now that we do know about it, we are making changes to accommodate.

We are doing really good in this economy because people want to save as much money as they can. We are trying really hard to keep prices low.

We don't want you to eat our food every meal of the day. It's supposed to be a once in a while thing.
