back in the 70's my colleague & his wife travelled overseas regularly as she worked for Pan Am. If they thought the local food was not hygenic they had McDonalds as they knew there would not be any germs in it. Bland, yes, but germs, no.

Around the same time I had my only McDonalds burger. Normally I would not have eaten them, but we were at the club on a Sunday afternoon & the Bistro was closed so a couple of us went hunting food while the others kept drinking, and the only thing open was the golden arches. This was back in the prehistoric days before Sunday trading (no pubs, no grocery shops, no nuffin')

So we came back to the club with our burgers & found the rest of the mob eating steaks cooked by the barman.

Being broke (no ATMs in those days, either) I sat with my friends in the yard under the green corregated fibreglass roof, eating my sausage-mince burger on soft sugarybun, garnished with 1 teaspoon of chopped onion, 2 or 3 slices of dillpickle, & a wisp of lettuce under the greenish light. I can still see it. I have never forgotten the green burger.

I would have been better just buying a packets of chippies or peanuts from the barman.
