    Of course they’re free to not join, but I struggle to understand how McDonalds can be the cheapest alternative? I don’t think it is at all here in Sweden at least, not even close.

      Yup. As a French dude I don’t see how what they say is true. Typical teenager bullshit to me. You can get much better food for less. On top of the list, students have access to unviersity restaurant where based on income you can pay 1 to 3.30 euros for a complete meal.

      I guess these guys also spend a lot on bars in the evening.

        Yeah, didn’t give any money to McDonalds in years, but it’s not because I’m boycotting. It’s just bad,and there are better alternatives everywhere

        Yup. Local street food has always been cheaper than McDonald‘s. There might be exceptions to the rule but generally speaking theres a local restaurant nearby that‘s cheaper and serves better food than any big American fast food chain. Some people just have bad habits.
