Bruh get one of those insulated bags that the doordash people use. Order the food in the drive through, put it in the insulated bag, close the lid. Then drive home and have your food at the kitchen table with a metal knife and fork like a civilized person. You won't get crumbs and sauce on the carpet of your car. You'll have an actual table to put your plate on. You can watch TV if you want. You can have a soda from the fridge at home instead of spending all that money on the McDonald's sprite. You can sit down with your family and talk about your day.

For me, that would be some very cold food by the time I got to eat it.

I always put my phone on my steering wheel and watch tv. I’m a stay at home dad, my kids know all about my day haha.

If I'm eating McDonalds, it's because my hunger got the better of me on my 6th trip to the hardware store that day and I said "fuck it". I want to get my food, get in my car, and finish driving to the hardware store while eating so I can buy a single bolt, and drive back home to finish whatever project I'm working on. No, I'm not going to have a nice sit down meal with my non-existant family. That's not what McDonalds is for.

I mean, I think mcdonalds food is already shitty as hell, but why let it get even shittier by letting the moisture parts seep into the dry, the moisture parts dry out, and the meat parts get cold? Insulated bags keep food sort of hot/cold, but the only correct way to eat food is at the moment it is done. Otherwise it just gets nasty. I don't care how you reheat your fries, ninja air idiots, they aren't anywhere close to fresh. Repeat ad nauseam for everything else.

Also, if you're eating a mcdonalds burger with a fork and knife, your life has gone off the deep end. Or fries, if you're already eating a burger.
