What are you talking about?

What makes it a service soup is the soup of services on the other side of the queue processor. If those components weren't services, the application would be a monolith.

Anyway, there many reasons to organize your code on services, and McDonalds is large enough for them to be perfectly valid. But if you take a closer look, those components on the article aren't the ones that do anything, they are just new queue processors that may or may not finally deliver your messages to the destination. That's an irksome architecture.
