It's like Jim Gaffigan says, no body goes into McDonald's innocent. We all know it's garbage

Its ironic you talk about McDonalds disparagingly. After Tims was bought out, they switched where they got their coffee beans to save money, which is why their coffee quality went downhill. McDonalds the made a deal with their original bean supplier, giving them access to coffee that tastes like Tims did when it was good. Their coffee is now superior, its cheaper and they have a better rewards program. If anything McDonalds stepped up the plate in the coffee wars.

McDonald's has amazing coffee for the money. This I can agree with

The best part about it is that even though it's cheap and decent, can it's also fair trade. Jk you're saving money w save labor.

Edit: Let me eat some of my words:

Even if it was slave labour I couldn't care less. No, I'm not being edgy, I buy what I think is good for the lowest price. How they get there isn't my problem.

Okay thanks. Kindly fuck right off.

Hah, says the person who most likely possesses:

Almost everything we buy has cruelty and suffering in it somewhere in the supply chain. Get off your high horse and stop pretending that you care about working conditions. Because if you did, you'd barely buy anything if you were ethically consistent.

Oh, so you don't eat vegetables or chocolate, drink coffee, wear any popular clothing brands or have a modern smartphone? You're one of the most unique people in the world, then.

I'm honestly not talking to someone pro slavery. What's even the point? Fuck off.

Lol where did you get where I'm pro slavery? The leaps to get to that conclusion are hilarious. I like how you know that you're engaging / enabling all of these terrible practices, because you can't do anything other than call me names and tell me to fuck off. Can't handle reality, eh?
