Duel Flashback:
McDonald's

Six months and millions of Big Macs ago, we served up a Duel on the world's most popular restaurant, McDonald's <% if gsSubBrand = "aolsnapshot" then Response.Write("(NYSE: MCD)") else Response.Write("(NYSE: MCD)") end if %>. Chris Rugaber (TMF RFK) saw merit in the company's restructuring. Rick Munarriz (TMF Edible) just got indigestion.

Our Foolish voters correctly sided with Chris. The stock has risen 17% since then as Rick proved to be a pretty inept Hamburglar. (But before we hand out the W's, there was a mistake in last week's Flashback results. The Gap Duel voting actually ended in a tie. So, we giveth the W this week and taketh away the last.)

Victory? Chris and our Voting Fools. Congrats!
