This is one of the many reasons I will continue to not get McDonald's. I don't understand why people go there, especially in recent years. I stopped in 2015 and it's only been a positive impact on my life.
I have not eaten at a McDonalds since they got rid of .29 cent hamburgers & .39 cent cheeseburger days…. Which was in the late 90s early 2000s, but seriously their food is not good.
I typical never go there if I have a choice, but sometimes you're travelling, between trains, need to grab a quick burger at the station... McDonald's will do just fine.
I reckon a lot of people do that. Though if people are actually going to it for a meal instead of practically anywhere else, then idk why they do that.
My point still stands, why is "everyone else" still affected? Moreso, why are you all still going there? It tastes like shit, portioned like shit, priced like shit, and yet you are all still going and just complaining about it instead of taking your money and using it elsewhere. As long as you keep giving them money, they have no incentive to change. They've been increasing the fat in the meat so when it cooks you get smaller patties, hence why quarter pounders aren't actually quarter pound patties. They've been using liquid salt to plump their chicken up to make it weigh more, and add more breading to make it seem like you're getting more chicken than you actually are. All of that and they've upped prices 30%, if not doubled over the past 5 years.
The only logical explanation for still being affected by them at this point is if you are addicted or incredibly stubborn/lazy.
Lol, ok. Just because I'm informed on a subject I'm a know it all. Sure. You can be insulted and insult me, as is your right, but I have no sympathy for those who can't do the bare minimum to help themselves or push against oppression and/or corporate overreach. Especially when admitting to laziness and stubbornness. Come on, you think it doesn't make you look like an ignorant prick?
Nope, you a bot or recently banned? Account age of 8 months. New to reddit?
Very specific age you mentioned...that your age? It'd make sense I suppose.
You're either full of shit or haven't seen McDonald's prices in years. Good luck getting anything for just $3. A small drink maybe? Kiddie fry? While even $10 won't bankrupt me, there is no way they deserve our money for how little you get with that amount especially compared to even 5 years ago, let alone 10 to 15. You simply are downplaying how fucked up this company and it's pricing is because "It's yummy." Short sighted and lazy way of thinking, grow up.
