Solution

McDonaldization is the process of rationalization, albiet taken to extreme levels

Rationalization is a sociological term that simply means the substitution of logically consistent rules for traditional (or illogical) rules

One of the fundamental aspects of McDonaldization is that almost any task can (and should) be rationalized

example: the premise of fast food often turns out to be just the opposite - long waits in lines. Fast food is not necessarily good food - in fact, McDonald\'s food is extremely unhealthy and the taste is average and bland. The system of efficiently producing and distributing their food has some other consequences, namely millions of tons of trash each year (disposability) and a food cultivation system of questionable ethics
