It’s cheaper to boil a pot of pasta or make your own burger, hell, it’s cheaper to go to other restaurants. People aren’t going to McDonald’s because they are poor.
Poor people work a lot so they need readymade food and historically McDonald’s was cheap readymade food. I’m flat broke right now until payday and making my own food out of what I have in the pantry is consuming a lot of my time between shifts

Make sure you make very large portions. Cook enough pasta for 5 meals, then put 4 in the fridge. Those four reheat quickly in the microwave. Beef stew? 10 portions. Steak? 3 portions. Same for everything else, don’t just make single portions, make extra then eat it later as a quick meal. Cooking takes significantly less time this way. And is way, way faster than waiting at a McDonald’s.
I hear the argument a lot that yes, McDonald’s is bad, but it feeds poor people. That is such a lie. Even if McDonald’s were half the price, it wouldn’t beat rice and beans for example. If you have to feed 4 people at McDonald’s where i live, that’s 4 menus, equals 80 dollars. Even if you’d half that, you vould coock for them for a week if you really want to, and it’s not shit ass McDonald’s food.
Poor people? I pay 9.95 euros for fries and meat at my snackbar. I just checked in their app and I’d have to pay around about the same (depending on what meat option I pick) to have less fries and worse quality meat.
For the McDonalds I’d have to drive there, for the local option I could walk there faster than driving to the McD.
So… poor people? (But littering obviously bad)
McDonald’s is so expensive here, it’s not really poor people food, it’s lazy people food.
