Welcome to the McWallmart thorn tree

JackIrons-wow thats a blast from the past.

How arrogant to judge the way others travel. I, personally, do not visit McDonald's even in the States, but if that's what you or any one else chooses to do, that's up to you.
If you're not interested in the posting, skip it - just don't judge it!

I tell ya what...
I had been in mexico for well over a month, shoestring, the last week of it in boca del ciela, in a hammock on the beach at a palapa that only served rice, beans, fish and beer. And i dont eat seafood.
After a long day of travel we ended up in mazatenego Guate.
There was a mcdonalds there, and me and the swiss girl i was traveling with went there for dinner.

It was one of the best meals of my trip... It was awesome.
The quarter pounder with cheese was grilled perfect, the bun was toasted just right. No pickles, just like i orderd. The fries were golden, and i drenched them in hienz ketchup. The coke tasted exactly like mcdonalds coke should, the straw was even nice and wide. It was perfect. We even had soft serve ice cream.

Till this day it was the best mcdonalds i have ever had. And i often tell the fuctards at the one next to me...

'Ive had better mcdonalds in mazatenego!!!!!!!!!!11!'

as the screw up my order, again.

jackirons,

Bless you and your thorntree profile. Bless you and your sense of humor. May our paths cross some day somewhere. Laugh and the world laughs with you! Beautiful poetry.

i occasionally take people from the villages into guatemala city to a doctor or to the hospital (in the rented car i get so much grief about). i usually buy them lunch while in town. they are ALWAYS excited to go to pollo campero. the food is good, the place is clean, service is excellent and they are treated with respect. many u.s. franchises could learn from them.

Jack-

Maybe the company of the Swiss girl made it taste better?

tim - she sure made the room seem like less of a dump...
