Threats • Health concerns • Public becoming more health-conscious about food • Bad publicity about McD’s and health • Super Size Me, Fast Food Nation • Competition • Competitors eating into profit margins through promotions and value pricing strategies • Smaller fast food restaurants growing in popularity (e.g., In-N-Out, Sonic)
