As has been said I think it is a matter of circumstance. Especially when travelling, often Macca's is one of the few places with cleanish toilets,baby change, parking and eftpos. Yes there are roadhouses, but you should see the rubbish they dish up for twice the price.
As for the Mc Muffin. Well break it down. An english muffin, an egg, bacon and cheese. All ingredients which you would probably feed yourself and your child at home. The ingredients are fine (well maybe not the plastic cheese). Even my MIL who is anti fast food, thinks a McMuffin is acceptable food.
It can be so hard not to judge though. I used to see it in food courts all the time when I was back in Melbourne. Kids eating a happy meal, when there were so many other choices. I then find out for myself though, that the other choices are so expensive and they refuse to sell you kiddie serve. Only yesterday I bought DD2 a plate of Japanese noodles. $7.50 plus a drink, so just under $10 Maccas is not stupid, they provide food the kids will eat at a very good price. If only other food providers would learn from that and offer half serves at half price.
