McDonald’s continues to do well in this economy although we all know fast food is not the healthiest food. I think an interesting question is whether the lower priced meals being rolled out at TGIF, Chilis, and other chain restaurants will be good (on a relative scale) for us.
Without really drilling down, I would assume that maybe the economy will finally address the portion size issue. One easy way to lower pricing would be to lower portion sizes and provide consumers with reasonably sized, simple meals at a reasonable price.
I think all of this points to how this economy (the Great Recession?) will make fundamental and long-lasting changes to our world.
