Laying in a hotel room, waiting to head to the airport.
A McDonalds commercial comes on. A hip young black urban couple are getting ready to go to work. They are smartly dressed and attractive.
The man appears and from behind his back he draws out a bag from McDonalds.
She smiles.
The bag is clean, white and crisply folded over. We can tell that hot, tasty treasures are within.
And sure enough, he opens it up. He unfolds the well-wrapped and carefully packaged goodies.
It's a pair of breakfast burritos…Yay! Fluffy eggs, crispy bacon, red and green peppers sautéed only moments ago have been gently laid into a soft doughy tortilla.
They eat together and exchange knowing glances..all is good with the world today.
Thanks to McDonalds.
So, what I want to know is, how come when I order the exact same thing the bag it comes in is stained and greasy, the food appears to have been wrapped by someone who doesn't have a even number of fingers and my burrito looks and tastes like a old sweat sock full of aquarium gravel and Elmer's glue?
