Show your ID, and your meal will be free. I had to pay for my meal, but my wife's meal was free.
It was quick and easy. And, since McDonald's is my favorite place to eat, it gave me a good excuse to head to the nearest McDonalds, which is 24 miles from my house. We might have to go for another drive tomorrow.  |
Thank you to your wife for caring for the elderly, Rick.
I happen to be a Burger King fan myself but JUST happened to be reading an article on Covid-19 and food and thought of your post. Please see below, for what it is worth.
Is it safe to get fast food during coronavirus?
That burger and fries craving comes on strong staying at home, and watching fast food commercials between news broadcasts doesn't make it go away. (Just me?) Unfortunately, this is not the time to give into that craving. According to Dr. Desai, it's not safe to order or grab fast food with the current novel coronavirus pandemic. It's the fast food setup that's specifically higher risk for novel coronavirus spread among employees and customers.
"Drive-thru situations require that the person buying the food interact with a fast food employee directly," says Dr. Desai. "In addition, with fast food, the employee is exposed to a very high volume of individuals and is therefore at higher risk of getting exposed to the disease themselves (and therefore higher risk of spreading it)."
