You certainly gave the impression of someone salivating at the thought of eating a whopper. I thought someone who could afford luxury skin care products would want to eat something much healthier....Why spend £50 on a pot of skin cream, when you've got grease all over your chops from a dirty burger? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care about eating healthily. I eat foods I want to eat. I'd rather have a cottage pie over a salad any day. If I fancy a whopper, I will have a whopper. I have been known to swallow a whopper in my time. Burger King is a High Street staple. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have what you want, but I very much doubt that the hordes sat in a Burger King will be thinking about going to a poncy apothecary for a skin care regimen. There's definitely something lacking credibility here.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meadowhall has a McDonald's, Primark and Poundland but also has a L'Occitane En Provence, Breightling, Kurt Geiger etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron99 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 (edited) Aren't the days of the large fast food chains numbered with people now being able to order from them online from the likes of Deliveroo & Just Eat, as suggested night after night in the tv ads? The fast food chains with their expensive city centre sites will soon go the way of the major pub chains & start closing sites when the Gen Z's get a few more years on their backs & the next generation prefer to eat their Macca D's in the comfort of their homes, just as the big brewers prefer you to drink at home so they don't have the expense & hastle of expensive overheads. Why pay for rent & exorbitant taxes for a city centre site & hope customers drop in, when you can supply the public via Internet orders from a warehouse hub with cooking facilities on the outskirts of a town & also be in close proximity to other conurbations?

Certainly not in the last 50 years. Edited January 17 by PapaLazarou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weren't there a few stall up in the late 90's (but hardly a market), before all the cobbles went down that the likes of M&S, Clinton's, WH Smith complained about, stating the stalls were dragging the image of Fargate down?
