I also hope it will bring prices down at macdonaldses in comparision with other fast food restourants.

I don't think so. Their prices are more or less reasonable. The only thing is that they should bring more quality and better hygiene to their food. May be they should use more organic food instead of all those processed items. And using robots might be expensive. The cheapest versions can cost as much as a few hundred thousand USD.

Urban farming is still a dream... But. Imaging McDonald's becoming a farmer. McFarming's everywhere...

I know they try to care about "good food" because they got a lot bad press and image for their fast food. But i dont see them being too much involved. I mean when you know about pink goop, chicken nuggets made from the whole chicken, including inner organs, bones and... you dont want to think about. https://docakilah.wordpress.com/2011/05/11/can-you-guess-what-mcdonald%E2%80%99s-food-item-this-is/

McDonalds surely will always take the cheap option. Only if their image is hurt they try to change something. A little bit.
