Our City By Lauren O'Neil 725 Views

Viral video shows every inch of Toronto McDonald's covered in bags​​​​​​​

Life is excruciatingly slow right now for many Toronto residents as the COVID-19 pandemic keeps us inside, away from our friends and in some cases without work or an income.

Fortunately, there are some parts of the city where work and activity are still plentiful (aside from hospitals).

McDonald's has been has been absolutely slammed lately despite the closure of all in-person dining rooms across Ontario thanks to delivery and takeout options.

Whether through the fast food giant's own app, which lets customers order ahead for curbside pickup, or through McDelivery options such as Uber Eats and SkipTheDishes, Toronto is clearly getting its comfort food fix in these uncomfortable times.

Evidence of this can be seen not only in the hands of myriad delivery people in elevators, but inside at least one downtown Toronto restaurant itself.

Instagram user Katie Hope snapped a quick video as she walked past the infamous McDonald's location at Queen and Spadina and on Sunday night around 9 p.m., for reasons that should become obvious upon viewing said video.

The clip shows the restaurant's dining room teeming with a sea of delivery bags — every surface is covered in the company's iconic brown takeout vessels: Tables, chairs, counters, even the entire floor.

It's an almost unbelievable scene, for better or for worse, prompting thousands of people across the web to ask what in the heck is happening.

Some commenters are concerned about seeing so many bags on the floor, calling the practice dirty and gross. Others defend the scene by saying that customers aren't even allowed into the store and that the floor is likely as clean as the counters.
