After I've seen videos of how infrequently those machines are cleaned, and the ice machines for their drinks too, I just don't want anything from these fast food places.
Basically mold growing inside the deep to clean areas, which never get accessed, and then you trust a bunch of immature teenagers to clean to a proper specification?
Nope. End result is mold.
Same for the big metal tea dispensers. I had some very nasty looking stuff come out of one of those while filling up a cup one time and it made me never trust fast food drinks again.
I used to not think it was much of a problem, because the people running the restaurant I worked at in highschool and college put such a strong emphasis on keeping everything clean so it never even ~~croased~~ crossed my mind that things could be that bad.
When I was a teenager, we put vodka into the shamrock shake mix, because "it wasn't irish enough".
Big hit with the local teens who frequented our mall McDonalds. How we got away with no criminal charges, now that I'm thinking about it 20+ years later, I have NO idea. I was 16 at the time. I think even the shift leader was only 19. And no matter what age we were, we were still knowingly selling alcoholic drinks to minors.
The only one I ever made up an excuse for, is when this mom wanted a shake for her 7 year old. THAT one I was like "Uhhhhhh, ya know what? Our shake machine is actually broken......yep........ignore the employees behind me serving shakes from it right now."
She started yelling at me for discriminating against her, and being a lazy employee. Alright. Cool. I'll take that heat. Because even I wouldn't serve vodka to a 1st grader. As terrible of a teenager as I was, I guess I still had some limits.
