Yep... that is the question.

I don't very often but occasionally if we are out with the family we do get a meal or snack there. The number seems to fluctuate a lot depending on what we do in a year. I would guess maybe 3 times a year maybe.

It's not my favorite fast food place but sometimes it is what is convenient (i.e. open past 4 pm on a Sunday if we are travelling) and affordable (a rival chain costs much more).

When I was single I liked McDonalds over the other burger places in town not because they tasted better but because they deliberately hired the mentally handicapped and seemed to treat those individuals well.

Given my druthers though when I was single I would go to Pizza Hut, or Wendy's for their salad bar (do they still have those? oh man you wouldn't believe how expensive salad bars are over here in those restaurants that do have them) or this sub place that served these new-fangled thick drinks called smoothies....

Given my druthers now I'd rather go to my local pub and have steak, baked potatoes, onion rings, and salad.

Back to the topic (sorry I hijacked) I don't think having a few Mcdonalds or similar type burger meals per year is going to harm you. I do find as I've gotten older my taste for them is quite diminished, and I am gratified when my children rave about dh's and mine home grilled burgers and say they're better than Mc Ds. :)
