some of my "just black coffee" friends tell me the same thing - mcdonalds coffee is a good combination of taste and value. they all prefer something else, but mcd ends up being the 'go to' because it's known, it's not bad, and doesn't cost too much (which, typing that out, is probably the same for many of their menu items - not 'best in class', but a decent enough product).

I'll vouch. It's cheap, black, and hot. All a proper coffee really needs to be. McDonalds is also focused on churn. Get up, say what you want, get out. None of the half-pump soy chai latte no whip cinnamon dust in the freezer for 1.5 seconds kind of wackiness. Just a blearily slurred "small coffee" will get you what you want.
