No brainer Expand That’s part of the problem, the stinking food must cost less than 20p a portion so the mark up is massive for the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Often wondered why famous fast food outlets aren’t in more stadia. Must be a cost of machinery vs use issue. No point in fitting a McDonald’s kitchen somewhere that’s only going to be used less than 100 times a year max (Wembley). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're virtually lava for about an hour anyway. It's not exactly haute cuisine either but it is incredibly popular up here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
