Mcdonald's Fairfield

I hadn’t been to McDonald’s for so long. It wasn’t because I didn’t want to go. I’ve desperately wanted to go ever since I was a child. Unfortunately, as I grew up I started to learn the truth about McDonald’s. It wasn’t good for me, even though I was lovin it. I was always happy eating the happy meal, but after I learned the truth, that happiness would turn into guilt/shame as soon as the meal was over. Is it worth it to be happy from a happy meal, while knowing that same happy meal will eventually make me sad? For a while the answer to that question was “no”. It wasn’t until recently that “no” turned into a “maybe”. I was on a road trip and we decided to stop at McDonald’s. I was excited because my childhood dreams were coming true, but I was also nervous about the guilt I might feel later. I ordered large fries and a McFlurry. After having a bite of McDonald’s for the first time in years, it reminded me of why I fell in love with it in the first place. It tasted like what nostalgia would taste like if it had a taste. As the meal was coming to an end, I started to dread the possible guilt I was about to feel. I waited and waited, but it never came. I have finally found a way to eat McDonald’s guilt free! I need to only have it on special or desperate occasions...or both. I had no other choice, but to eat this delicious food. I was on a road trip for goodness sake! I was so grateful to have this great excuse that shielded me from any possible guilt I typically get from McDonald’s. McDonald’s taught me that sometimes excuses and guilt can be good. Without excuses I’d never eat at McDonald’s and without guilt I’d always eat there.

It was very nice to have the opportunity to visit a McDonald's restaurant that was totally Halal. First one I have ever been to. Great food, great customer service, great prices!!
