McDonalds litter the worst in British streets

[Homeless Mal]

McDs may be bad by volume, but nothing is worse than a cardboard box full of chicken bones skittering around the top deck of the bus like a mad smelly Roomba.

^this

'a carton of chicken bones' would beat McDonalds for rubbish in London any day.

It's a British tradition, innit. Get a drive-thru McDonald's, sit in the car eating it, then wind down the window and chuck it all out before driving off.

I walked passed someone's parked car once, and this box came out the window. Being a helpful and not observant sort, I picked it up, thinking it was something they had accidentally dropped. When I realised it was litter, I had a tricky choice. Did I (1) put it back through their window, risking getting my head kicked in, (2) drop it again, thereby creating litter, (3) walk off with their litter and put it in a bin, looking like some sort of servile litter slave for morons. After some thought, I did 3. No easy solution.

It's about time fast food stores paid more attention to the shit their customers leave on the streets.

i was out walking yesterday bout 15 miles from nearest mc donalds in fact probably 2 miles from nearest road and there low and behold tucked in a bush was the wrappers from a happy meal ???cant believe i saw that, who the hell walks in such beautiful unspoilt areas and litter ??litter is my absolute pet hate , and fast food joints are responsible for tons of it , i laugh every saturday/sunday morn at the amount of red cabbage on the streets , why get red cabbage on a kebab if you dislike it ??

No, they need to devise a Pitta bread that doesn't fall apart as soon as you bite into it

What, so the fast food places are the ones dropping the litter everywhere?

Yeah, it's pretty rare that I say this, but I don't think we can blame this one on capitalism, folks

macdonalds are responsible for everything (joke)
i agree it people dropping the stuff , what i meant was 90 % of the litter on road sides is from fast food places . i took a photo yesterday in a country lane someone had dropped off a ton of videos old kettles toys etc , the local tip was miles nearer than the destination they chose to dump i cant understand that either , wish id found some letterheads among it id have took it all back and covered their garden
