A Western Australian reflects on growing up in country WA at a time when fast food chains had little presence, saying the area did not even have a McDonald's for years. They credit that upbringing with never developing a fast food habit, and note that Melbourne, where alternatives abound, offers plenty of better food options. The observation has struck a chord with others weighing nostalgia, diet and the spread of global chains.
Why now: Nostalgia for a pre-chain childhood and debate over fast food's spread resonate with people reflecting on diet and change.

- I'm kinda glad I grew up in country WA in a era when there were few fast food chains (we didn't even have McDonald's there for years); never got into the fast food chain habit. And in Melbourne there are plenty of better alternatives. # food https://www.… · timrichards@aus.social · 6
