Study: One In 10 Think Partner Eating McDonald’s Without Them Is As Bad As Cheating

To all you folks sneaking behind your partners back and hooking up with Ronald McDonald, consider this your warning. You might be one burger away from a breakup. A new study has found one in 10 adults consider their partner eating a McDonald's meal without them to be as bad as cheating.

The poll was taken across the pond in the United Kingdom where the fast-food restaurant was shut down during the quarantine and where their love of McDonald’s is apparently next level. It’s reopened now and one in five said their first taste of a Big Mac after the lockdown was better than a pay raise. And the thirst gets even more real than that. An astounding 16% said sinking their teeth into a burger was on a par with their birth of their first child, and 13% said it was better than their wedding day. Should have gotten it catered by McDonald’s I guess.

And the idea of a second lockdown without fast food is simply unthinkable for most. Nearly half the survey said they’d rather give up booze than Big Macs and 10% said they would prefer to kiss their phone goodbye.

Because honestly, what’s the point of drinking and having a phone if you can’t get drunk and have someone deliver you a bag of burgs.
