A nice boost to the economy for the area. It will give burger king and whataburger a little competition. It’s also created some much needed employment for the area.

Hey Walnut Hill am very proud to say that I am 12 years WalMart free. I refuse to spend any of my hard earned money for anything at WallyWorld they dont sell anything I will every need. Kmart is my store and some others ya know people freak out when you say you don’t go to Wally World. What do you the same things I did before there was ever such a thing here in our county. JUST SAY NO LOL

Chrome
My children are not fat, I am talking about American children, which are
all of our responsibility. It is a fact that I guess you didn’t hear, just how
fat ( your words) American children are and how many have sugar diabetes, add, adhd , MSG problems, I didn’t even mention trans fat, that have given so many health issues. I was not even talking about fat, I was talking about health. There are so many issues surrounding fast food for our children (american children) they are just too numerious to mention. I guess with all your name calling you have some kind of vested interest in this Mc Donald. I am glad
that you or your family have some job prospects or what ever your reason
is, no hurt to you or your family way intended. Please when we are talking
about the good of children and communities lets try to be civil.

There are always alternatives when you go to any resturant. Today I had the salad, good choice, very fresh. nice atmosphere and no guilt..Try it for a change. When you get your child a happy meals try the apple fries and low fat milk for the little ones, they think its a treat and it serves as a fast and good alternative to canned ravioli or spagetti. I am glad they are here… Welcome McDonalds..

Nobody eats healthy anymore. You have no idea what is in the meat you buy the canned veggies, or any other thing you buy. It is always fix it in a minute or so and get out of the kitchen these days. If anyone takes more than 30 minutes to cook a real meal it would surprise me these days. Give the kids all the junk food they want and then you don’t have to worry about cooking food for them. Has anyone noticed how big the kids are today. What causes that to happen. Cuold it be something in our food doing that and the FDA has approved it as safe. When you buy a fryer at the store it weighs about 4 1/2 to 5 pounds. That is a hen not a fryer. They pump the juice to them to get them to grow off faster to make more money faster and they don’t care what your kids eat or you. Wal-Mart has 12% solution added to their so called fresh beef and pork. Ask them why they do that. I can tell you the reason it is a perserative to keep the meat looking fresh longer. Beef will only stay bright red for 2 days pork for 3 days without something to make stay pretty for a week or two. I happen to know this because I am and old meat cutter from the years way back when you could not add anything to your meats to make it stay fresh looking. Ask someone at Wal-mart to cut you a steak and see what they tell you. They don’t know how to cut meat it come from some plant miles away from here already packaged and ready to put out in the case. Thye are just stock people not meat cutters. Sad isn’t it when you know the truth about it.

I’m glad Flomaton finally got a new place to eat. They really need the business and the job opportunities. I do not live there but I use to and visit there often.

Chrome, I think what Kay was saying is that maybe our community should invest in something other than another fast food joint to stimulate our economy. And for you to say that you go eat a hamburger to enjoy yourself is a little sad when there are so many other healthy things you can do to enjoy yourself… like go for a walk or ride a bike. You may think that eating a cheeseburger and french fries “feels good” now but when you’re having a heart attack and in agonizing pain, the five minutes of “feel good” time you spent stuffing your face will not be on your mind.
