An EXCELLENT point that is the main reason, before I heard about
the McLibel case at all, why I refuse to go to Mcdonalds: I do not
believe in throwing away perfectly "good" (if you can call the
junk they sell as food good) food.

Waste is criminal, especially when people are starving everywhere.
Even Mom wouldn't let you leave the table until the plate was clean,
and yet for some reason we totally ignore the mass amounts of food
thrown out by restaurants. It's truely appalling.
