“Dark Nudging” sounds like a new Forbidden Jutsu that Rondald McDonald learned in order to be the Fast Food Hokage.
McKage
I just call them marketing tactics. Some worse than others
And 400 episodes later we find out that he's an alien sent to terraform earth into an energy farm.
It should be called 'dark psychology' because it's been the cornerstone of modern marketing for decades.
There is a whole side of the science of psychology not devoted to helping people, but to selling things. It's called marketing.
And though it can be clumsy and most people actually can see through their mind games. But don't think just because you see through it and are not manipulated by them, that it' snot working on others and showing up in their balance sheets.
It's quite amazing how manipulative modern marketing really is, they invest trillions into playing people like puppets.
They have been doing it for a while in all industries.
its Ronald McDonald's version of the thousand years of pain
The friction thing is so true, when I open twitch, if I get an ad before I can watch a single second of streaming I automatically close the tab 95% of the time
Same
I do the same with CZcams, if there's a long one or "1 of 2 ads" appears I'll close the video and click on it again. Usually it cancels out the ads playing again because I guess it technically had one on screen.
That being said, if they're in-video ads I just fast-forward 60 seconds, that's usually how long they last. Also when I went to type "fast-forward" it went to autocorrect as "fast-food" which I found kinda funny
use brave and/or get an adblocker and never deal with ads again. simple as that.
Install brave or uBlock Origin extension. It will block your ads
I don't know what the proper way to advertise on twitch is, cause they DO have to actually make some money to sustain the business, but goddamn have they chosen the most annoying shit so far
I love how as soon as she finishes the explination to what a dark nudge is, asmon says 'let me give you an an example' and the video is interupted by a pokemon go advert that is one of the ways youtube practically harrasses its viewers into buying a premium subscription
And boy, they've ramped up the ads in the last few years. Has it been 1 minute? Ad. Oh, did you skip ahead? Ad. Needed to rewind a bit? Ad. Paused for more than 3 seconds? Ad.
its annoying as hell, ive been paying more attention to the total amount of time in a video that is ads and on avarage your looking at about 40% of each video, it was obvious why they started putting ads in the vids though because it was exactly when they first started advertising youtube premium, from then on it was either 'pay to be uninterupted or were just going to bombard you with as many ads as we can legally get away with until you give into your anger and subscribe'
CZcams premium is the only subscription worth paying for lol. If you pay for netflix, ad free prime, hulu, whatever streaming service you have no right to bitch about youtube premium, as its way better value, irrefutably. All ads are cancer.
Time to use uBlock Origin or Brave Browser on mobile. Your time is worth more than the micro cents the CZcamsr receives from your singular view and the personal privacy invasion by advertisers.
I use brave i no longer have ads unless i use the youtube app. Which is rare.
37:18 For context, $1 in 1960 = $10.55 in 2024.
So that triple threat combo was about $5.28. Don't let inflation fool you, that's some damn good value. Nowadays, burger and fries are at least $7
The prices will drive people away faster than anything else. Fast food used to be cheap and easy. Now its expensive and easy. Im not going to go to mcdonalds and pay 20 bucks for a shitty burger and some fries. I will just make it at home.
$6 - 4x ¼# burgers
$2 - buns(4)
$.25 - condiments
$4 - fries
$2 - beverage
..$15 for 2 people to eat decent non-kangaroo meat food
Amen brother. If you live at home alone or with another person, you spend maybe $25 to get every item you'd ever want at the grocery store for a mcdonalds meals, and it lasts you for at least 3 or 4 days.
@@leighz1962 don't get me wrong I would prefer to make them but You must not live in America if you really think you can buy all that for just $15
The burgers alone is $8-$9 for 4x patties near the store I live at.
Beverages are $3 for a 3 litter soda or very sugary drink $5 for a 52 fl oz juice even more if it's something healthy.
Prices are especially bad in Canada compared to the US. Probably why obesity isn't as high lol
The fresh beef patties at the grocery store so much better and 3x the size, 6 for 8$ bread veggies.
Idk fast food is expensive with minimum wage at 15$
Some things you are not considering:
1. In a lot of other countries, there is still a lot of walking.
2. There are ingredients in US food (including food available from drive-thrus) that are illegal in other countries.
Yea cities in Europe are much more walking friendly. Just like older cities in the US. Walking makes such a difference to obesity. I see so many overweight people barely get out their cars and they park as close to a supermarket as they can because the fatter u are the less pleasant exercise is
In my experience. Fast food joints dont even cater to people walking, even from their own parking lot.
So many times ive been walking down a sidewalk and decided i wanted a thing from inside, only to realize there is a hedge row blocking my acess from the sidewalk to the front door. No one ever planned for a pedestrian, through the entire planning phase prior to building the place. There are many times that even when i park in their lot i have to traverse an obstacle course across the drive thru, around the bend, travel in a zig zag as im forced to use a handi-cap acessibility ramp. Only to turn around, imagine myself in a wheel chair and think WTF was that.
Nowadays these places are too concerned with replacing humans with robots for me to weather their 17 levels of neglect.
I view some places above others. I still visit raising canes, in and out, and chic-fil-a without much of a second thought.
many other places in the world don't place profit above all else, too. you touch upon it with the illegal ingredients: other governments make rules that put the health and wellbeing of their populace above the profit of corporations.
@@TheHoHWBand please provide some examples of the "many" other places in the world that doesn't place profit above all else? lol!
Also, the obesity rates between the US and many other western countries aren't that significant, even though people make them out to be. Obesity is a global western problem, not just a US one.
4:20 - I did the same last week. I walked in and placed an order. It took 20 minutes to get my order because the drive thru customers are the #1 priority and they will always prioritize getting them through quickly at the expense of making the IN STORE customers wait.
That's another reason why people don't go in anymore.
Yep, that's what I noticed at McDonald's and Burger King as well. Some randos will order food for an entire village at the drive thru and let you wait long enough that going there in the first place for a quick meal wasn't worth it.
And then they get half of your order of a single McMenu wrong...
Same story for food delivery drivers. Drive thru, then in store, then delivery. Its bullshit. Make the orders in the order RECIEVED. Its NOT hard (worked in both resturants and also food delivery for many years)
I just never go to fast food, unless I am with friends that want a quick bite.
But whenever I eat there, by the time I get home I'm hungry again.
Fast food burgers are nothing burgers.
I rather go to an actual restaurant, or you know cook myself.
If your going fast food during drive times 5am-2pm or 5pm-8pm then that's why. Fast food has drive times. The managers get a raise if they get green or yellow drive times.
It's always been this way. I started work at mcdonalds in 2009 and drive thru always had priority. You can thank the customers, as they have the expectation of fast service in the drive thru which is why the focus is there.
It's the seed oils. Nearly all of American fast foods are cooked in seed oils. Scientific studies shows seed oils, which are high in omega 6 fatty acids are endocannabinoids, which means they suppress your hunger hormones and give you the munchies, just like pot. It's not the way we buy food (the drive thru), but the make up of the food. Why is it that a baked potatoe is healthy, but french fries are unhealthy? It's not the potatoes, it's the soybean oil that the fries are cooked in. Fries used to be cooked in tallow (beef fat) and were much healthier.
The problem is seed oils are in pretty much everything we eat. This is why when Americans go to other countries and eat similar food, they lose weight. Or when foreigners come here and eat the "same" food as back home they start gaining weight. It's because we cook our food in vegetable oils instead of butter and tallow. Even American pork and chicken are problematic because we feed them corn and soy (and thus have a high levels of omega 6 in their fat). Cows have multiple stomachs and so can filter out the omega 6.
We've poisoned an entire generation of people. Government subsidies of corn and soybeans means the oil is absurdly cheap and thus they put it in everything. We all agree that "processed" food is bad for you. Well, what does it mean to be "processed"? It means they use vegetable/seed oils.
Thank you for pointing this out! Another big thing is our bread sucks. Besides being poor quality, everything is full of gluten which is actually quite bad for you. In Europe, they have much more restrictive food regulations, including bread without gluten. Famously, Italy is a favorite travel destination for people who are gluten free, because they can eat as much carbs and pasta and bread as they want without worrying about gluten in the food.
It is the entire process. Best to just avoid fast food. Its all junk.
Indeed. Seed oils are incredibly bad for you (not to mention they go rancid incredibly fast). Animal fats are healthier by comparison (just don't eat too much if you don't exercise).
People used to eat a bit of oil (usually animal fat) every day. Now? They guzzle seed oil like its water.
"Dual wield drive-thru" made me laugh harder than expected lmao
How did you have an expectation beforehand though? You probably laughed right as he said it 🤔
Mcdonalds is the only fast food place that has a double drive threw in my town. All other drive threws are single car entry and only 1 person can order at a time. It's extremely annoying when the fat piece of shit in front of you orders the entire menu when you just want something small and you have to wait 10 minutes because of their over eating problem. I don't eat fast food but this happens.
its duel wield but one weapon is sheathed when hitting
Dual-wield drive-thru implies the existence of two-handed drive-thru.
Power stancing drive thru
“Americans have a self control problem”… hit the nail right on the head man.
Their culture is literally about getting whatever they want, that's their "American freedom". They can't understand someone wanting less
Just watch Dashcam Videos... So much Self Control Problems ☝️🤷🙄
Every country does, but America lacks a lot of basic regulation.
Also accountability. It's not my fault I can't control myself it's evil corps
The quality of the food also plays a massive role in it. Yes there is a lack of self control and impulsiveness but you can’t gloss over the fact that the levels of fat, sugar, and salt are essentially unregulated compared to many other countries in the world. I don’t get how people can call out one problem while completely ignoring another when the two go hand in hand.
I've avoided this by being too lazy to want to go out to eat while still being dedicated to exercising and cooking my own food.
The dual lane drive thru is a blessing when there's that one person taking 10 minutes to read the menu before making their order. Because at least some of the orders are going through and stuff is getting cooked
Has little to do with drive-thru.
- food is different compared to other countries. The amount of fat, sugar and chemicals that may be banned elsewhere but not in the U.S.A.
- the food size. Our medium is your small. Your medium is our large.
- the amount of fastfood buildings and the way your cities are layed out is also a problem.
Are there countries where quantities of carbohydrates and saturated/unsaturated fats are restricted per unit of serving? If that were the case, couldn't you just eat more servings and be equally obese?
The video is an hour long and just dropped, you don't even know what the argument is.
@@kchaifley1692 yea that is what is happening i think the UK had increased obesity it just takes more time due to eu having local shops ,regulations and food culture but its happening also.
Fat is generally good for you, it's not banned in other countries. Unless you are talking about trans fat....which is also banned here.
- the main reason Americans are so fat is due to overconsumption as a whole and lack of physical exertion. Which with over consumption being at the very core of all Americans lifestyles , is it really a surprise?
True which is the reason why a lot of American products are banned from EU like chicken. Also even the olive oil that they use in USA is not actually olive oil and is quite shitty in quality if you tasted the real thing it's like night and day. So they cook things in olive oil which is by far the healthiest oil but it's not actually genuine olive oil and it just makes the good even more unhealthy.
Bro, in Europe fast food is not even cheap. At least in Denmark. Coin offers don't really even exist anymore at McDonald's here. It's literally only useful for convenience for me at this point. I can eat like three times (at least) the quantity of homemade food if I try instead of getting one fast food meal.
Fast food is getting more expensive in the UK but it’s still fairly cheap. In the past two years the price has increased a lot though.
same in Sweden. I even have a btucher contact I buy at least 50kg from each time. Straight from the knife to my freezer. Then I just buy stuff to cook with. Done this for years and it saves me cash and health ^^ plus its very good quality
@@tdoran616 in france it's the same price than an actual restaurant for lunch
@@SvenskSork damm that's actually solid advice. Maybe i should try 😊
Yeah, it's just for convenience/speed in northern Europe tbh. For the price of a ~10-12€ McDonalds menu you can just buy a bag of fries (~2-3€), a bottle of coke (~1.50€), some burger buns (~2€) and cheap meat (~4€) at your local supermarket. Based on German supermarket prices near me tho.
As a commercial real estate broker who works with developers that build drive thru's, the double drive through is also used to reduce the likelihood that a backed up line impacts street traffic for city approval.
YES Ronald Mcdonald doesnt PHYSICALLY place your car into the drivethrough and make you do anything but that is missing the point entirely lmao.
He may as well be doing that however because the decision you made was hardly your own with the amount of mental manipulation employed. Sure it doesnt work on everyone but it works on enough.
Does all this manipulation still count if it's not a business selling food? My place that replaces my car tyres has signs to draw my attention, multiple lanes to make the line not look as long, advertises sales, even gives out free coffee and water while you wait. lowers friction at every point. But for some reason I don't feel the urge to replace my tyres every time I drive by.
Maybe it is just a matter of self control because I'm not being manipulated to buy more tyres than I need.
@@adio123456789 Oh no it absolutely works with all sorts of other stuff. Casinos for instance are probably the worst place in the world for implementing subliminal things that manipulate people into spending more money.
Also I feel like tires might be a bad example just because of the demand being so much less than that of the daily demand for food but they definitely want the best advertising they can have to win you over, over their competition.
@@Skonkgasm yea sure, they want you to choose them over their competitor but they can't seem to make me buy tyres when I don't need them. But they are using the same manipulation techniques that fast food is using that is apparently making people buy food who don't need it.
“mental manipulation” is again just a term thrown in to try to push the responsibility off of the person for their poor choices and onto external factors. people hate responsibility, and will do anything, ANYTHING not to have to take responsibility for the consequences of their bad decisions. “oh it’s the manipulation! it’s not my poor impulse control, it’s allllll the evil sinister manipulation! we have no choice!”🤡🤡
own up to your shit. there isn’t any shame in admitting you’re mentally weak, what’s actually ridiculous is making up every excuse under the sun just so that you can keep your toxic ass habits with a clear conscience because “it’s not your fault”.
it IS your fault. the first step of getting out of bad habits is admitting it is up to you to choose better. you gotta have to bear some friction to achieve results, the path of least resistance will only lead you to your next quarter pounder.
I'm from Poland and here almost no one uses drive through. Everyone either walks or parks and sits down to order.
In America there is big car culture related to oil addiction and there are stupid zoning laws created to increase the price of houses.
In America it's harder to walk to restaurant/fastfood because they are farther than living spaces. Usage of car in almost mandatory.
I also thought this. If you already drove an hour through heavy traffic on your way home, the energy to cook something worth eating is rather low.
America is like 30X the size of Poland, dude.
Also, do you mean north America? North and south America? Or you mean the United States? Of which there are 50 states all bigger than Poland.
This polish person is more american than anyone else in the comments. They just get it. Car culture, distance of driving, zoning laws. It WANTS you to do it.
@@tw629108
False.
If Poland became state today it would be in the top 10 biggest.
Google USA to Poland size comparison.
McDonalds has basicly same menu in Netherlands as in the USA. However, the ingredients are controlled by the European Rules. So certain additives like corn syrop are not allowed. Also is there a cap on salt and sugar levels. Yes we have drive throughs. But McDonalds is not cheap here. Most fresh food, fruit, vegetables and even meat prices are capped so its usually a lot cheaper to make a fresh meal instead of fast food. Shame cause I like KFC XD
Yes it's very expensive here. Kinda a waste to go expecially with how many local stuff we have around.
Same in Germany. Cooking fresh/Eating fresh vegetables is waaaaay cheaper than McDonalds & stuff.
Same in Australia, though unfortunately the only products we have with regulated pricing is Eggs. Doesn't matter what brand, all Eggs cost the same price. Would be nice if that extended to other raw ingredients too, such as fruit and vegetables, but Woolworths and Coles investors keep lobbying against such ideas.
@@realkyunu100%... And tastes way better and is healthy
Capped food prices? 😬😬😬
Venezuela I hear you calling.
Do you also have those ordering terminals in the US ? (you click your order, you get a ticket, you wait for your number, you don't talk to anyone, no one verbally influences you, you just need to read).
In the Czech Republic we also have drive-throughs and we are also persuaded to use them. For example, just by the fact that there are 15 parking spaces, 5 of which are occupied by employees and there are 20 tables inside.
We do have them. Our local McDonald's just added them a few months back. I'm not a big fan but mostly because I have not quite figured out how to use them. 😅
*“Dark Nudging”* sounds like what I do when nobody’s around
I never understood why people would pay so much to eat such a shitty food like McDonald's. Especially with how their prices have skyrocketed.
It's not even fast. If I drive past the drive through I can go home and cook a tastier, healthier, cheaper meal faster.
@@sirgaz8699 🧢
Because they are addicted
Healthier and cheaper yea but lets not pretend big mac dont tastes good @@sirgaz8699
I feel like it was better before, now it's often too dry or served cold.
I used to eat fast food a lot but now my love for fast food has met the brick wall of me being cheap. It's all too expensive for what it is now. Back when double cheeseburgers were $1 it made sense. Now it makes no sense at all financially.
I remember the McDoubles being $1.00 just 11 years ago. 15 years ago they had 2 pieces of cheese on them also, haha!!
0:40 I wonder this similarly, if our “freedom” and capitalist society structure create this issue unique to America. Being free to eat and seeing low cost and large sizing as high value, we as a society engage in it. The laws don’t prevent low cost ingredients that are banned in many other countries and Americans have no self restraint in a system that gives us everything instantly (see: credit cards, social media , energy drinks, etc).
I recently was in Canada and the food difference in quality and ingredients was shocking. The candy at an event was as good as any in the US, but with no added dyes and only 3g of sugar (versus in the US Red, Yellow, etc coloring and 48g of sugar).
I have a privacy filter on my laptop that does that thing where you cant see the screen unless you are looking right at it. There is no anti-glare reason for it, as anti-glare filters are generally polarized the other direction, vertically, instead of privacy filters, which are polarized horizontally. This is definitely being done so you cant read the menu until you are right in front of it.
I’m European and my workplace is 2 minutes away from a McDonalds and it took me 6 months to visit it just once😂. When I visited the US I was blown away how many people went to the drive through, so I think it’s just something people are very used to over there.
Yeah I'd say its mainly an American cultural thing starting in the 50s and 60s with national freeways causing a huge surge in car travel, leading to the rise of drive-in diners and such where they'd bring the tray out to your car and hook it on your window, preferably by a cute girl on rollerskates. That combined with the convenience factor and everyone being in a rush all the time is what 'drives' most people to the drive thru.
Dark Nudging:
camping trip, past midnight. you and homie roll over at the same time. tips touch. dark nudging.
How the fuck is that what you think of when you hear dark nudging
@45noop a man can dream.
Well. This is america. So at least the devil could help people burn a extra 20 calories a hour.
If you were already sleeping together naked then this was no accident.
Bruh, LMAO
There are 2 major reasons I prefer to order any fast food, or coffee, from an app on my phone.
1) To avoid mix ups as much as possible.
2) To avoid holding up a line. I can sit in my car until I got my order perfect.
drive thru means not having to walk through a wall of bums to get my food
The problem is not just the food but the quality of the ingredients. A lot of American products would never be allowed in any country with reasonable quality checks. American chicken are all banned from eu for the same reason .
Even the olive oil imported to the US is a knock off which is probably quite unhealthy compared to the real thing. So even when they tell you they're cooking things on olive oil in reality this makes it even worse.
The problem isn't meat, animal fat or butter. The problem is grain, sugar and the plant oils they use.
You ban meat but let in migrants... Brilliant!
American chicken is banned as a political move, because the US had a monopoly on chicken in the mid 1900's its not strictly about quality, but its a great reason to stop. Their was some product the eu refused to export, so basically the US took it to heart and created a chicken war.
I would say sugar is the main issue, I remember going to the US as a kid and couldn't believe that everything I tried in McDonalds was sweet, even the fries.
Actually, the quality of chicken isn't the problem. The US chlorinates chicken meat before sales, as a safety measure (to prevent bacteria and other common meat issues). This is why the EU bans US chicken imports. As far as the farming practices between the ocean, the EU has some stricter regulations than the US, but overall, it's not much different (complete with both having completely bogus labelling practices).
Looking into the history of the US chicken ban is more along the line of preventing market dominance, not health and safety (as chlorinated chicken does make chicken meat safer for consumption). US import chicken would upset the local EU chicken market, so the chicken industry brought the clorinated chicken to the public eye as a scare mongering tactic to get US chicken imports banned.
I'm not shilling the US chicken market. I merely have a personal backyard flock and have learned a lot about chicken care and regulation because I keep up with news regarding avian flu.
As far as the other things talked about, I completely agree. On the olive oil topic, what most people buy in the US is either rancid oil or a mixture of cheaper oils. The real stuff is very expensive and doesn't have a very long shelf life.
the dual line thing: sometimes i have a hunch that one car will take longer to order cause they are still undecided at the speaker or have a fam of 6... then that's when the other lane comes in handy... knowing i was there after you but i ordered and got ahead of you in the queue is the best feeling.
And I love ordering through the mobile app. Bypass the line entirely, and anyone working the drive through seems super relieved they can just click a couple buttons and send me on my way
She is totally right about the menu glare reflector thing at McDonalds. My local McDonald's just got a 'upgraded redesign' and although the vast majority of the changes were interior... they got rid of the pre-menu and put the anti-glare thing up... This forces you to look at the window of the main building for their featured products, many of which are new or limited time things, more expensive than their normal combo options. I have found myself buying those things far more often than my normal things.
OH! And my TImmies (Also Canadian, here) does have pre-menus... but it is much smaller and only shows their special products.
I think a lot of it is how our cities are designed. If you're driving everywhere to get to anything, then the drive through is easier. If you don't have to do that, drive through isn't any more useful than a non-sit-down restaurant
I love how Asmon "counters" every point made by saying its just a lack of self control and pauses with a big mic drop moment as if he didn't just make that same point 10 seconds ago.
It's almost as if he can't control himself from making that point
The ironic part is that he eats the same trash that normally fat people eat. While he may eat smaller portions, im willing to bet that he also has a naturally fast metabolism, cause you know this dude aint getting any meaningful exercise with how much he streams
@@GreatRaijin he eats not great, just not very often. That's how he does it.
@@GreatRaijin What I find most ironic in this one, is that he does not exercise self-control when it comes to eating because he himself admitted once that he find eating inconvenient. And just like the woman in the video says, people try to find the path of least resistance. For Asmon eating is resistance, that's why he avoids it.
@@GreatRaijin it's not ironic, just don't order the large menu with the extra thick shake.
Asmond doesn't have the mental fortitude to clean his room, yet keeps telling people to just "not eat too much"
there isnt a person on this planet with the name asmond
Id rather be messy than obese. He might feel the same.
there’s a very clear distinction between the two, one is a matter of willpower, the other is a matter of whether you want to do it or not.
fatties hooked on mcd’s are unable to stop due to their poor impulse control. if you asked them whether they want to get fat and unhealthy, they’d say no, but they eat fast food regardless, because they cannot exercise self-control. they are fully aware that mcd’s is actively damaging to their health, they do it regardless.
Asmon on the other hand simply doesn’t care to clean, it’s not that he can’t bring himself to do it, he just doesn’t want to. him not cleaning doesn’t hurt him in any way, he very simply doesn’t want to, it’s not a matter of willpower.
put it this way: if Asmon wanted to, he would clean, but he simply doesn’t want to, so he doesn’t do it. if a fatty wanted to get healthy, they would have an extremely hard time quitting fast food, if they could even do it at all.
@@mencibenci sure_
I've seen the opposite happen where the line is long wrapping around a dutch bros or in'n'out burger and people willingly wait because the line itself shows that, "Every wants this food, therefore you gotta give it a try too." It writes its own advertising if it's always full, like a scarcity or a slot in line.
I like how its common to say this is a bad thing cause it works to well .
Korean American here who spent some of my childhood in Korea. I am also general manager of a restaurant here in US.
Drive thru culture is almost exclusively American. Most families in Korea have one vehicle, sometimes two if both parents work. It is almost unheard of for children to have their own vehicle until they move out, and even then, most don't until they are married. It is very common for them to not have their driver's license until well into 30s.
Also in US, about 60-75% of restaurant sales are drive thru.
Next focus of restaurants: online order. When people are ordering online without human interaction, they tend to order more without fearing the judgement from a person who he/she interacts with. Online order's average volume is about 25% higher than what they are in person.
So yeah, I can see how restaurants are exploiting people's impulsive behavior for profit, and it's only going to get worse with new avenue of online order.
Regarding online orders could the increase in size be related to people wanting to "get their moneys worth" when they get delivery? Or is that online order but no delivery?
@@venems24 The statistic holds in both. I'd say delivery service def take advantage of it as well with their timed offers, service fees to "make it worth the money", etc. There is reason why a lot of restaurant pushes their own apps even for non-delivery, and managers are often told by corporates to push it for this very reason.
I didn't consider the second part, that people might order more. I do that on occasion but it's not very regular because we are really trying to maximize price-to-food, while prioritising low costs.
In the Age of Abundance, those with discipline succeed the best
breaking news.... America is huge compared to south Korea in land size......
It's convenience, and how petrified people are of having a conversation outside of it being transactional. That disconnect from people is ruining social skills
As someone who has been studying behavioral science since the 90's, I'm happy to see more people educating themselves on the topic and trying to be more aware of how we, as humans, are constantly working in ways to manipulate each other. It's not just companies that do this type of stuff. But when companies do it, it effects a lot more people.
34:20 That's how they design retail shelves as well, like grocery stores especially. It's very important that someone's product is at that eyeline level in order to sell more.
Seeing all the bad drive-through ideas is actually quite insightful into how success gets filtered.
Most of the insane things in the world today are just bad ideas enroute to failure.
Problem today though is there's so many desperate investment corps keeping all the bad ideas afloat, that they cant just die off naturally.
Leaving the world littered with bad ideas that would otherwise have failed.
Big difference is that you have legal ingredience / chemical compounds etc. that are banned in Europe and other countries and it doesn't help with help. Like chemicals in bread that are banned in Europe cuz they are used in foam in beds etc. So it's not just this but chemicals and sugars used in food in US
Even if there's only one person taking orders, the dual-queue system means there's always a customer right at the voice box ready to order. Otherwise a person has to pull up to the order box, park their car, roll down the window, confirm everyone's order, make the order, put the car into drive or start it again. Pull forward, and then another car needs to pull up and start that all again.
Two order boxes means the operator takes an order and then switches to the other car after while the first station does that whole loading process and the just switches back and forward.
The only reason I use the Drive Thru here in Australia is the shear number of employees these places put on the windows. You get ultimate priority over every single patron inside the restaurant. It's significantly faster albeit BULLSHIT. It blows my mind everyone inside is treated worse.
Not all countries are so car based so you don't find yourself hitting a drive through that often. While in the states you are permanently in a car and if you want food its going to be much simpler to just do the drive through.
Yeah when I visited Amsterdam it was so amazing to be in a city where I could just walk or bike around and get to everything I needed
honestly eu is fat as fuck too. and it's mostly from culture of wanting fast and convenience rather than all these complex topics people wanna bring up. two things you can do with a car in car culture 1: buy food 2: drive somewhere to cook it.
bears will kill you fast and convenient in the woods too but i dont wanna be killed by a bear and i dont really feel like getting fat either
@@cremonstermove there then lmao
Someone who actually says it correctly 👏
1 hour of asmon talking about his favorate thing
Yeah right?!!!
If it’s a Salad Drive Thru, no one would buy anything, that’s called a U-Turn.
I'd say that's also largely because salads are not really "drive thru" food in the first place. Ever notice how almost all drive through food are things that you can eat with your hands easily? Most people don't want to get their food and then immediately pull into a parking spot, bust out the fork and salad dressing packet and do the whole salad thing in their car. They want to grab it and go and probably eat some of it while driving to the next place, to be efficient with time.
@@theSato format doesn't matter, you can make healthy food convenient.
e.g.:
make a subway sandwich on a decent bread instead of sugary bullshit they use, and don't add a crapton of high-calorie souces.
or make shwarma with the same mindset. or like anything else.
it's just not that profitable.
@@theSato People who eat salad can walk lmao.
27:40 she was demonstrating that you cannot see the screen unless you're square in front of it. it "could" have privacy film over it but it could just be LED screen design. point is, you can't see the menu until you're at the microphone to place an order. that's where all the "can i get uhhhhhhhhhhh" is from
The difficulty is not just a psychological one, it is also biological. There is a process called myelination, where the axons and dendrites of neurons form myelin around their connections that make synaptic communication faster. Think of it as electrical conduciveness, meaning the messages are met with less resistance on a biological level. Impulsive behavior is usually controled by the frontal lobe, and a lack of myelination there often leads to an increase of impulsive behaviors or thoughts.There are ways to control this, but fasinatingly, it is not just a matter of not doing it; although that is a part of the process of reversal.
Drive thrus are the worst I absolutely hate walking into a fast food and waiting 5-10 minutes with no one in front of me just to order it’s because management tells the employees to ignore the stand and focus on drive thru customers
I think one of the biggest issues with that now is that mobile orders are almost as much as the drive thru, so the in person customer is in 3rd place now
@@cremonster Yeah I noticed this too, since 2020 the walk-ins wait the longest. Plus the interiors aren't always clean or even safe. This made a lot of previous walkers like myself go to drive thru now.
@@erawanpencil Yeah i switched over to ordering in the app/website and choosing pickup. Usually by the time I place the order and drive to the location, the food is 1 minute from coming out.
Sounds like a local issue, either they need more hires or the manager is just kinda crappy.

Portions are bigger in the US than anywhere else
then order less and save money 😅
Mcdonalds burgers have been reduced in size, so you buy more.
This is a good thing. People should just control themselves
Also more "charged", i dont know how to express it but the difference between a kfc in my country (colombia) and the one i ate a couple months ago when i went to the us was wild, the one from the us felt like eating 27 spices with a mantle of grease.
I feel like that's a lie. been overseas and portions were about the same
the dual drive thru is faster because they don't have to wait long to get the next order started. When there is just a single line and the car that ordered can't move forward they can't start the next order till it does and that means the orders take longer to make.
The screen blackout is actualy an artifact of how monitors work. Most LCD monitors will shift to an odd color or to black if you look from above or below. These are basically just turned on their sides so the effect will be left and right (as you walk/drive past). Many new monitors or high end monitors don't do it as badly or at all, but why would Mcdonalds care and pay extra to avoid something so trivial.
A national burger chain here in Sweden "MAX" used to have a true dual drive thru in one place here locally, just one line on each side of the building and it was the best. Sadly because of new development in a different area pulling customers away they've had to close down one side
TLDR- I used to work for mcdons, one a 1 lane, 2 a 2 lane. One of which was terrible at it and the other got really good at it. Their DT is optimized for speed, which increases the profits and customer count. Everything is optimized for this, but DT is the main focus.
Ok, for explanation, this will be long and edited. Everything in the restaurant is designed and updated at least every 25 years to provide the smoothest and quickest experience. Friction is a very good word choice of this. From the moment you walk in, you see kiosks now. This used to be 1-3 people at an order taking station. This is to give multiple points of ordering. This is why your DT has 2 lanes. Kiosks are double sided and during busier times the register person is to help introduce customers to the kiosks and take orders at register if needed. A lot of times that person is just used to do other stuff to make the experience overall much faster.
You may see but not notice how the kitchen is set up. That is also for speed. The grill person is able to put food in and take food out of the holding cabinets while not interfering the person on table finishing the sandwiches. That person is helping build the sandwiches up to saucing and the person initiating the sandwich helps build them to the last veggie and cheese, they meet in the middle. (some stores absolutely suck at doing this) The table is set up in order of the ingredients in the best orientation for speed. The grills cook the meat both sides at a time to decrease cook time.
The DT team is alligned in a way that they can help with service in times of need up front and stay out of the way of service for when DT is busier. The drink station is a huge help, it can stage 8 drinks, 4 of which are ready to cap and serve. The fry station is perfectly set to be in the path but not in the way of the service team.
The DT lane.. this is the bread and butter of fast food. They have 2 lanes so you have a second point of order taking. It should be operated by 2 people. The front person and the one at the 2nd window handles the inside lane and the back person who takes the money in the far lane. They do this because the back person handles all the money taking and will be overloaded at times so they take the slower lanes since most everyone will default to inside lane. As a customer you have a feel of choice in lane. Thats why chic filet does it, thats why dutch bros does it and so on. When working for a single lane store, we were faster than what the DT team could get through. We had a busy weekend and used another person with a walkie talkie to take more orders behind the order taking slot. Both DT restaurants I said before do this too. You do have a speaker at Chic Filet but they usually have a couple of people with tablets able to take your order and even collect payment. This is to move the line faster. Honestly they have the best system when they can staff the store up enough. This is also why if you're going to wait for the food to be served, mcdonalds will pull you forward or park you. Preferably pull forward, its easier on customer and crew. Easier on crew means faster experience for the majority. When your restaurant does 80/20 in DT/inside, you want to keep people moving. If there was a lobby for cars this wouldnt be an issue. Since that would be a major waste of land and just silly altogether being the point is to decrease friction and increase customer count this would not work.
I can promise you that McDonalds dont have enough forethought to tint the menu so you dont see it before the speaker. It is solely because the old way would glare and blind you as a customer at certain times of the day/year. Im actually surprised they dont put money down to have a pre menu like burger king does. It would make order taking faster. Although they are more focused now on mobile order taking. You can save a regular order for you and if you order it on phone then go to your mcdonalds it will have the restaurant start it when you get close enough. They are pushing this hard on the customers, trying to do away with the need for an order taker. More points of ordering, more orders coming in. If you dont see a line, you're more likely to visit. You can also skip ahead of those others who do take a year to order, and those guys' order wont count on time until its submitted. Mcdonalds loves that for times in stores so that store cant blame the high times on old timer Bob. Old timer Bob comes in and spends a dollar on coffee every morning and maybe even a sandwich. That's a guaranteed customer.
With less people needed to take orders, that frees them up to help with making service even faster. With like a hundred menu items the store is spread out and takes time to make a fry, a flurry and a smoothie. If you have someone make a fry while you grab the smoothie and flurry it'll be quicker. Also, lets not ignore the rising wages increasing more than the price increases. Which is another thing.. the prices go up but not too fast. We did about every 6 months to a year, especially after 2012. They dont raise too much too fast or it will drive customers away. The digital menus do cut down on labor used however. When changes need to be made, someone can take a minute or two to make that change. Example: ice cream machine is down for whatever reason. Manager can go to register in a menu and hit unavailable. This will change the status on all the menu boards at the same time. They used to have to put a sticker on the menu (and take it off later) or explain it to customer as everyone has heard "our ice cream machine is actually down for now". Corporate likes to change stuff to make it modern and now that can be updated on system close and change out the menus automatically. This used to take 20 minutes or even an hour depending on the size of the change. An hour to change the menus is an hour lost by one of the priciest people on the schedule.
So while the bottom line is profit, the main focus is speed which turns to profit.
The license plate recognition may be a thing but they would rather see your app running in the background and show you a menu or suggestion based on that. That way any car you're in will still be personalized to you. They are perfecting it on the app but I'm pretty sure this is the goal.
Probably one of the best comments on YT I’ve ever read! Thank you!
I ain't reading all'at
That was both interesting and informative. Than you! :D
tell me you have a poor attention span without telling me you have a poor attention span
What's weird is in the UK, wait times in Maccy D'z are significantly longer than what they used to be in the 90's and 00's.
Gotta say, prices stop me dead in my tracks when it comes to eating fast food. I usually just get the $1 breakfast sandwich on the McDonald’s app after work and they try at the window to get me more and thru the app but those prices nah.
9:55 Same, I don't just decide on the spot "You know what I'm hungry, I'm going to order a take away", I actually decide days in advance what I'm going to order, what day and the rough time.
About the only thing I really decide impulsively on the spot is what game I feel like playing at a given moment, and maybe what *orn to watch... and even then I often think about and plan out both a hour or more ahead of time.
Just how my brain is, I don't really do much impulsively. Even my in-home food shopping is done monthly and planned out ahead of time.
The McDonalds in this video at 17:50 is in the UK and has had double lanes for years. The reason the queue was this long is because McDonalds only reopened the drivethru due to the Covid lockdowns. I remember this well because I also had to drive pass this queue at one point... Typically tho the double drivethru here is pretty fast. In fact sometimes the workers can't cope with how quick it is and they have to get you to park in the car park and bring it out to you when its ready in order to keep the line moving. The queue does sometimes back up onto the a217/road but it's never normally even remotely this long... This particular circumstance is a bit of an extreme example of long queues at Maccy Ds...
It's important as an individual to take accountability for your actions and try to exercise self-control. However when dealing with systems, you have to think systemically. The fact of the matter is Fast Food restaurants prey on your weaknesses to push addictive foods on you without consideration for your health. Saying "muh self-control" doesn't solve anything, it just removes accountability from the businesses.
In Swizerland they took out XXL Menus about 15-20 years ago, and the Price is about the same as a normal Restaurant.
Double drive thrus absolutely speeds up the process by removing the downtime from people driving away from and driving up to the ordering speaker thing
It's also about places you can walk to and areas you can walk to, fast food in local places can give more value for cheaper and it might be cheaper
Using science to prove what we already knew. Not necessarily discovering truths, but more like discovering the epistemology behind the truths. It's not difficult to push someone over the edge of a bad decision once thy are already in the drive-thru.
20:00 It happens sometimes that I got to a shop to a buy a tool. When I get there, I realize that there are like 6 different variations of the tool, in wildly different price categories. I might spend like 15-30 minutes, trying to just figure out which one is the best for me and value for money. Then I go back home without buying the tool because now I'm unsure what I needed. Then I do my research and buy the thing online.
If there were no options, I would probably had bought the tool no matter if it was a cheap chinesium version or an expensive brand one.
The craving of fast food in your head will always be better than the food you get. We all complain about how bad the food looks once we look at our order vs the pictures, so once you realize all this and remember that, their mind games will stop working.
Dual lane actually has time savings. Even with 1 person taking orders. People often look at the menu and rethink their orders. So while you are waiting for the person to get to you, you have already been looking at the menu and are ready to go.
The Wendy's in my town doesn't have a digital menu board. We (I was a shift manager there for about a year) and we would get the new panels delivered before any menu change. Then we would have to price it with by hand, which always sucked because there was never a pricing guide included so you'd have to just ring in the items at the POS. And for new items, you'd have to the buttons to show up in the system that typically happened at midnight on the launch date.
In Texas, we have the dual lane Whataburger. Its two full lanes and not one land running into the other.
The worst is at Chick Fil A where they have those people waiting with tablets before you even get in view of the menu. They expect you to already know what you want and gamble that you’re not one of those few first-time customers who will have no clue what is going on.
In Australia McDonalds has been using license plate readers and previous visit information to change digital signage since 2018
This problem isn’t exclusive to America. Other developing/developed countries like Mexico and china have a similar obesity problem.
Also Europe, especially British and Ireland.
For china not that much.

-Ads don’t affect my purchasing.
-Ads are more likely to make me feel negative towards your brand, it’s really better you don’t advertise to me to ruin what I may think about it if I found it on my own.
-Interstitials like upgrades and cross sales enrage me.
-I do like some ads, because they are entertaining. But I’m not buying something I don’t need, haven’t already made a decision, and that I haven’t rigorously researched.
More people need to spend more of their time angry. Then this shit doesn’t work.
you inadvertently just explained why advertisement exist .. :D
They create an illusion of choice, they even have a choice for those who "dont want to pick the big brands" your negative attention actually gives them more incentive to show you products you MAY not need now but remember later when you do..
Instructions unclear, always angry and just bought a sausage mcmuffin combo with a coke. Please advise.
I wish ads worked but in my life i can probably count on one hand the amount of advertisements i've seen for a product i might actually want. I get tons of advertisement for "sage accounting" because I work for tech support and often have to google issues with it, but do i ever get ads for anime and video games? nope.
Exactly. Also, why the fuck would I EVER press some random ad while browsing on the web?? Who even does that? The chances of getting your PC infected with some shit is way too high for me to ever even consider it as anything else than random malware disguised as some ad. But maybe I'm just overly cautious in that regard.
Can confirm, its standard practice to place the ordering menu and speaker on the same thing. There is no board leading up, they want you on the spot ordering impulsively.
Can definitely say, I have witnessed and experienced an interesting tactic for getting people to order bigger portions at one specific snackbar chain at least. They serve a pretty large portion of fries for the small option. It's enough for the average person to be full after eating all of that. But the staff at the booth is trained to refer to "small fries" as "kids fries". I suppose for some just that shift in wording can peer pressure someone into ordering at least the medium sized portion instead.
A small coffee in Texas is our Large here in Australia. I kept naturally ordering a “large latte” and ended up with MONSTER COFFEES. I couldn’t believe it, I expected it, but still 😂
Okay but can we talk about the friction created when McDonald's decides not to fix their milkshake and ice cream machines?
I would NEVER go through a drive-thru. That shit is wrapped around the building, I park, go in, get my food and leave and walk past the same cars i did on the way in. Drive-thur is so much slower.
Remember that vid of the counter strike developer minusing 50 from everyones ping after receiving complaints about it, then those same people saying everything dramatically improved? The way Asmon talked about the dual wield drive thru reminded me of that
“What a mystery that must be.” Lmfao
The anti-glare on the menu could be for nearby roadway users, and not the customers themselves.
Anti glare is nice 👍
Showing the last car's order is like seeing your friend's store purchases in CoD as free advertising.
The dual drive through thing is sometimes faster and sometimes slow. I think they just have one person taking orders from both lines sometimes. Generally it’s faster tho, cuz I think they have more staff inside most the time.
Every since they added these 2 lane drive thrus, I avoid drive thrus because of the social anxiety of racing the guy in the other lane and nudging my way from 2 lines to 1 in a vehicle.
Asmon saying "just stop eating food" has the same vibe as "just don't be sad" lmao
Except food has calories that actually add up to body fat... And sadness does not. It's not a physical palpable thing you can literally grab like belly fat 😂
I think he knows there is deeper issues like people who are depressed and need a constant hit of dopamine through food, drugs and other means.
At the end, he is right. Just stop eating and stop being sad. Now, are those two things hard? yes. They are.
@@jorgetinoco3574it’s the lack of empathy and acting like it’s that simple. Since he’s a skinny guy with a high metabolism he can talk shit. I guarantee you if he didn’t have a fast metabolism and gained weight easy he wouldn’t be so cocky lol.
Being sad is a feeling you largely can't control. Eating is an action you actively do. It's way easier to stop doing something than it is to stop feeling something. Just eat less food. It sounds oversimplistic, but it really is that simple.
He's right. But most people gotta find better ways to reduce their stress once they quit eating as much.
I worked at a Tim Hortons for 3 years, the 'glare film' on the menu board is literally just a window to protect the menu posters from the rain 😊
At 6:25, the sales increase was because soldiers at that time were not allowed to be in uniform off base except in their car going to or from base. So this allowed them to get McDonald's without changing. Some trivia. Always innovation on how to expand to potential customers.
Considering this man’s diet, the weekly pizza he used to eat while raiding, and the fact he has a soda in his hand nearly every stream, his complete lack of exercise, the fact he feels so comfortable calling out other people’s bad habits even with scientific evidence shoved in his face of just how much research was put in by companies to encourage this bad habits is honestly a bit ridiculous. And before anyone comes at me, No, im not fat, but i used to be and can understand the struggle.
Came here to say this. Amon clearly has a hard gainer body type and metabolism. He’s one of those people that can eat nothing but burgers, pizza, beer and soda and not gain a pound.
If he had different genetics but kept his exact same lifestyle he would be overweight, without question.
He does exercise though, he's said it on stream before. Whenever he feels bad or sick, he takes a walk or exercises.
Yeah but he's not fat. His calories in vs calorie out is balanced.
@@joshholland90 My guess is his stubbornness/adhesion to habit probably results in him eating fairly small portions and unintentionally intermittent fasting.

Your comment is ignorant because it’s clear you haven’t watched her other videos. You just immediately reacted to one video and made an assumption. She has talked about the “trash food” in other videos. She makes highly researched videos on one topic instead of several. So your concerns of her hyper fixating on just drive throughs literally only apply to this video because it part of a whole series of videos she does on the psychology of self control and how nutrition and company practices play into. Perhaps you’d learn something before just jumping to conclusions if you actually checked her channel out. You have to remember that asmon isn’t watching entire series so he makes blanket statements and y’all eat it up without critical thought. Think for yourself. Asmond literally advocates for that on the reg and it applies to shit he says too.

The video is literally about drive thru's and OP was echoing a statement made by asmond. do you lack reading comprehension skills? How bout next time instead of using my entire comment to reiterate my own points back at me, you try something original and employ some critical thought. Also by your standards why didn't you ask me questions about my point? or does that rule only apply to me cause you didn't like what I said to OP?
Sure I get the "shrug it off" attitude, but completely missing the point of the video here.
:/
Dual-lane drive thru helps on the occasion when the person next in line is indecisive and takes a long time to order and others can just take the next lane instead of having to wait.
It's not going to happen often, of course, but it is nice.
Because they often end up staggered it also lets you read the menu longer before you order. Which speeds up ordering.
The worst part are the excuses like “bad foods are cheaper and more convenient”. You can always choose the salad, or don’t have fries and a soda. It’s not like you don’t have any agency of your own.
Bad foods are cheaper, more convenient and are designed to make me enjoy eating them! 😂 At least the first part used to be true.
When my friends want to hit up McDonald's I get 6 or 9 nuggies or a burger, a diet soda and no fries. Never a problem. But yeah if I got the whole menu I'd have to starve the rest of the day to avoid hitting my calorie max.
@@ChaoticNeutralMatt Then eat smaller portions and amounts of those bad foods. You'll lose weight, be healthier and save even more money. It's a win-win-win.
@@ChaoticNeutralMatt if you only ever eat at McDonald’s. There’s pretty much at least one salad option or grilled chicken sandwich option available at nearly every fast food restaurant. You can still choose to reduce your portions.
people here including asmon forget that the modified food like fast food has salt and sugar poured into them beyond what should be normal, sugar is an addictive and salt make your more thirsty, and they make use of this. you also can't compare a burger to a fucking salad bro XD. I have self control and i dont have a car anyway so forget me with drive-through , but i understand the effect fast food and bad food has because of said addictives in them. There is a lack of self control for sure but its not just that.. Asmon is saying things without knowing all about it and people just blindingly agreeing with him without doing critical thinking for themself lol. i agree with some of his point but there's more to it than what he says. You need to see wider than just a few PoV.

IIRC they tried drive-thru in my country back in 2015, but it never took of. After Covid, food delivery became so dominant that people no longer consider drive-thru as an option. Drive-in is still popular though.

you missed the point chief. this is all about how they make people want things. Also the food itself is made to be addictive.

Fortunately for me I only get fast food maybe once every one or two months, but it can be tempting especially when you are out and about. I'm also deterred by the calorie to satisfaction ratio. One normal combo meal pretty much anywhere is more than half of a person's daily recommended intake and yet I usually still feel hungry or dissatisfied.
I pass by like 3-4 Dunkin Donuts every morning between 8:30 and 9:30 and just about every morning there is a line of cars reaching around the entire store and out into the street. There are often 8-10 cars "parked"/sitting 1/2 on the shoulder & 1/2 on the road as they wait in line for their Dunkin. That means there are about 25 people in line for the drive through all while their parking lot is basically completely empty (about 20% of the time it is empty, the rest there is 1-2 cars in customer spaces). People are really sick and it probably takes about 20-30 mins to wait in that line.
