Any McDonald's worker will tell you never to order ANYTHING from McCafe. Staff usually aren't properly trained to service and clean the machines. That means anytime you order a McCafe drink, odds are your drink is running through a ridiculously dirty machine. So, maybe avoid that from now on?

McDonald's McCafe

"I'm not sure about all places but the McDonalds I'm at now also has us cleaning the smoothie machine with glass cleaner. I work nights so unless I really hate the person coming in, I try to play it off like these machines are in their 'automatic cleaning cycles' and can't be used but really I can't morally justify serving people this (dangerously) crappy stuff. TL;DR: All McCafe beverages run through a horrifically dirty machine - we're talking 5+ inches of uncleaned, liquid bs making up its inside parts, and the smoothies have glass cleaner in them."

Did you know...

  • Does your job make you stressed? We all know that stress is psychologically bad for you, but it also has an effect on…your allergies? A Harvard Medical School study has shown that stress causes your allergies to become worse because your body's defense response loses efficacy when repeatedly triggered by stress. Then, when you really need to physically fight something off, you're less able to!
  • Have you ever told your husband something and he promptly forgets it? It's not his fault, actually. It really is because he's a man. The hippocampus (the part of the brain that deals with memory) begins to shrink with age faster in men than it does in women. That's why you can remember everything, and he can't!
  • A hearty laugh is good for the heart. Laughing can increase blood flow by 20%. Additionally, looking on the bright side can help you live longer. Studies have shown that a more optimistic outlook is linked to a healthier heart, lower blood pressure, and a lower risk for coronary artery disease.
  • Starting to feel claustrophobic? The smells of apples may help keep your claustrophobic feelings at bay according to a 1995 study by Dr. Alan Hirsch. Green apples, specifically, helped people change their perception of their space. Maybe they thought of expansive apple orchards? Cucumbers and barbecue made the feelings worse.
  • Need a quick cool down? Try drinking some hot liquid. It's true! As counterintuitive as it may seem, the heat from hot liquids will raise your body temperature. This will heat you up and cause you to sweat. The increased perspiration will wind up helping you feel cooler as it evaporates. Try it out!
