McDonald's is a real fast food restaurant chain that was first seen in the Season Eighteen episode, "Cock Magic", and first mentioned in the Season Fifteen episode "Crack Baby Athletic Association".
The logo is written as M Burgers on the front of the restaurant, although in-universe it is stated to be a McDonald's restaurant.
Background[]
Large amounts of fries from McDonald's are seen in Eric Cartman's office in "Crack Baby Athletic Association", set next to a large hot tub full of KFC gravy. The restaurant was where the boys went to lunch to discuss their excitement about the previous nights Cock Magic tournament and in obtaining a rooster of their own, later named McNuggets in honor of the menu item at the restaurant.
In "A Nightmare on Face Time", Sharon offers a frozen-solid Randy food from McDonald's, which he accepts.
In "Ass Burgers", a McDonald's executive led a group of high-ranking representatives of other American fast food chains in a mission to discover the true secret behind the success of Cartman Burger. Ultimately, they are all killed in a brawl by the drunken members of the Secret Society of Cynics.
In "The Damned", Cartman and Heidi Turner go to the restaurant while bonding over not being on social media networks any longer, due to their phones and computers being destroyed. They discover they are more alike than previously known.
Heidi and Cartman are shown at the restaurant again in "Fort Collins".
In "Basic Cable", Clark Malkinson goes into the drive thru on his way to a job and orders a value meal.
