At the Sanford Bernstein conference on Wednesday, Thompson noted that customers have many options at McDonald's, which has more than 34,000 locations worldwide. For example, he said someone might get a Big Mac one day and a grilled chicken salad with balsamic vinaigrette another day. Earlier in the talk, however, Thompson also said that salads make up just 2 percent to 3 percent of sales. He said there were other ways the company, which is based in Oak Brook, Ill., could incorporate fruits and vegetables into its menu, pointing to the chicken wraps it recently introduced. But going forward, "I don't see salads being a major growth driver,"
he said.
