Fast food places aren't "dirty." They get regular inspections and there are lots of rules and regulations about cleanliness. Workers today even have to get a food handler's certificate to work there. They usually aren't "hot" either having air conditioning and OSHA rules about such things that have to be met.
Hell, even McDonald's offers benefits today...
Flexible work schedules
401K package
Tuition assistance
Life insurance
Health insurance
A bonus plan
Family and medical leave
While these might not be as generous as some corporation with a higher level of employee skills, education, and such, they're still offering that stuff, and all without a union.
Most large corporations with a skilled workforce offer great benefits, union or not.
Unions have lost their clout because they don't do anything for workers anymore. If they did, people would be willing to join.
