OT - mgoblog referenced in article about Ohio

I saw this posted by multiple friends from Ohio yesterday and noticed that it had a lot of views.

However, I'm still not convinced.

A few things:

  1. Skyline Chili is amazing.
  2. Buckeyes (the candy) are actually really good.
  3. I live in Ohio.
  4. Charles Woodson (and many other Michigan sports legends) is from Ohio.
  5. MGrowOld lives in Ohio.

I'd like to think that when you put all these things together, that upgrades Ohio's status a little bit from "worst state ever," but that university in Columbus is really hurting the state's value.

The bottom line is that companies like McDonalds and Skyline produce the best and most efficiently made products in their field, which is why they make the money they do. When you're talking about making a better product, a lot more goes into "better" than saying you can make your family a delicious set of burgers in tiny batches.

I do think the taste is better at McDonalds compared to the places they compete with. Other than the Wendy's Bacon Portabella Melt, I'd take several McDonalds burgers over any other burger I can get at a drive-thru in the midwest.
