In The Matrix, Neo's name has a deep origin. Neo reversed is oen, short for oenophile. Oenophiles are wine experts. Wine bottles have corks. Cork reversed spells Kroc. Ray Kroc formed the McDonald’s Corp. Kroc hired the Taylor Company. Taylor makes broken ice cream machines. Neo breaks machines.

If I bought from McDonald’s, would I be in some distant way funding someone who participated in the same acts Ray Kroc did?

So I just watched β€œThe Founder” on Netflix and he was a horrible person to say the least. He is now deceased but if I buy food from McDonald’s would it somehow get to someone who worked with him and supported him? Or are there all-new executives?

Ray Kroc, in 1954, said that "In my experience, hamburger joints are nothing but jukeboxes, pay phones, smoking rooms, and guys in leather jackets." He's saying these were seedy establishments, but what about those things (besides leather jackets) signaled shadiness?

The full quote "In my experience, hamburger joints are nothing but jukeboxes, pay phones, smoking rooms, and guys in leather jackets. I wouldn't take my wife to such a place and you wouldn't take your wife either." He was impressed with the cleanliness and the family-friendly atmosphere at the first McDonald's in San Bernardino. But what about juke boxes, pay phones, and smoking rooms would have made a restaurant seem shady? Were these attracting the criminal element? Were pay phones for making drug deals? Were smoking rooms where the gambling and the marijuana came out? Did jukeboxes bring out the satanic gyrating hips of teenage rebels?

What's so bad about jukeboxes, pay phones, and smoking rooms, I ask you!

Mr. Ray Kroc, founder of Macdonalds Restaurant, would not even recognize the filet-o-fish if he were alive today

Back in 1963, Mr. Ray Kroc opened the first Macdonalds restaurant, a family-oriented establishment selling fast, affordable and delicious foods, including the famous McBurgers, chicken nugglets, milkshakes, and of course, the great Filet-o-Fish sandwich.

The Filet was a nod to Neptune’s bounty, a hearty piece of codfish, or maybe hake, nestled in a golden brown batter, and complimented with real processed cheese, sweet pickles and filet sauce. And don’t forget the tender bun. Very few people ordered the filet in those days, since most of the teen-agers preferred the new hamburger sandwich. But there was a select fraternity of more mature diners who were loyal to filet o fish β€” especially those of us who grew up by the sea.

And like a good friend, the filet o fish stood by us in the happy times and the sad times. The Viet Nam war. The 1988 Winter Olympics. My retirement as a tugboat captain on June 26, 2014. As we changed, the filet o fish stayed the same, ever perfect, anchoring us to the sweet memories of our young years as the decades flew by into the howling vacuum of time.

Or so I thought. After my most recent experience at Macdonalds Restaurant, I am saddened to announce that if Mr Ray Kroc were alive today, he would not recognize what the filet o fish sandwich has become.
