    Guess you haven't figured out how the Ads work...

    Adverts are based on your browsing history. Either stop searching for fast food or get an ad block extension.

    Thanks. I am at McDonalds about every day since it fits my macros and do not see those ads.

    MFP doesn't get a lot of control over their ads. They're based in browsing history and some basic algorithms to figure out what might fit you.

    I would take your McD's ads any day over the stupid waist trainers ads I'm seeing now.o

    PS there's nothing wrong with fast food if it fits your goals. Plenty of people here still fit it into their lives.

    I used to get toilet papers ads anytime I opened a juice cleanse post. I miss those.

    I see the fit tea one a lot.

    Right now, I have the ASPCA at the top and a Verizon ad on the side.

    Lol! I get the Spanish ads all the time. I do have the Duolingo language learning app on my phone. Maybe it thinks I need real world practice?

    They just started all day McMuffins in Australia. I'm annoyed. All I want is to be able to get a cheeseburger before 10:30am. Is that too much to ask???
