Makes me wonder where in the continental US is furthest from a McDonalds. Looks like some random field in...Wyoming? I don't know US states. Surprised about a lot of the South West though, I thought the desert there would be a lot less inhabited.

Also makes me think about Bigfoot sightings. Look at all these McDonalds. Where's Mr Foot meant to be hiding when he's probably no more than an hour away from Maccas at any given time?

Surely the furthest from a McDonalds have to be in either Yellowstone or the Grand Canyon, right? Like there's so many McDonalds' in America that you'd have to go to a national park to find someplace that didn't have one.

I just assume that Americans have McDonalds and KFC and stuff located in the visitor's centre in all their national parks, and if not, they would certainly have some on the highways going past them.

Probably Alaska but that feels like cheating
