You mean you serve your own drinks?
They do that in most places down here too...With the exception of McDonalds - But If I'm buying fastfood, i'll be using the drive-thru - I only eat that sick shit for convenience (im fuking lazy) and somewhat for price....

I'm not really too suprised to be honest, I used to work in burger king. the ice holder there was open all day (the lid was never used) Ice was only changed once the ice had run out (maybe only once or twice a day). So that same ice was collecting bacteria thoughout the day.
On your comment trip... At BK I used to get bollocked for "topping up" the drinks (adding aditional topups to the drinks to fill up the cups once the S/R/L button had been pressed. The rest of the cup should be filled up with ice. However on average the machine would only spit out half a cup of liquid (coke/fanta or whatever) into the cup, the rest was expected to be ice!

wtf at Micky D's here you serve your own drinks. The only place that they give you your drink is Chick-Fil-A, but they are all christians so they are uber clean happy:
Also you are right, germs are everywhere and they cannot be avoided. It helps not to think about it lol.

That's nice and all, but it's not like everyone who drinks a tasty beverage from a fast food restaurant will get sick.
99% of all bacteria on this planet cause no diseases or illnesses in humans. It's only that 1% that cause problems, also keep in mind everything has plenty of germs on it, I bet you could find some fecal coliform on your keyboard, remote, mp3 player, you could find a lot of bacteria on things.
It's always important to keep things like this in perspective.
