As I said, I never eat at McDonalds, so I can't confirm your opinion of their produce.
Also, I rarely drink coffee, but when I do I sip it. I don't rush it to the mouth. The same with tea - a much better drink. I even warm the cup to ensure I get it hot. But, then I sip it while I do other things and thoroughly enjoy it.
You New Yorkers rush too much.
Drink Milk! As the TV ads are wont to say.

Harry,
No matter where you put that coffee it was always dangerous. I stopped for breakfast sometime ago at McDonalds and the muffins were cardboard, the meat tasteless and the coffee was a killer. Not because of the taste but because they kept it so hot that I could only drink it long after I had eaten the food. But my stomach eventually told me that the whole thing was bad for me. The reflux began to burn the throat that I depend on for a living. Since I stopped eating that junk my reflux disappeared. But hope springs eternal. Occasionally I desire the salt in the french fries and it starts all over again. They don't change the grease in the deep fryer and cooking seafood that I'm allergic to can cause all kinds of problems. "Economy of Scale" for a "one of a kind" body. As I get to the age where it is supposed to wear out for the sake of the economy and otherwise I grow much less tolerant of what you folks on the West Coast accept casually. It must be your slower life style. I eat to live not live to eat. Where we are the stress is high and the speed fast. You put garbage in and you get garbage out. Life is hard enough.
