Title: WTF happened to the Big Mac???!!
Post by: old-school-lifter on June 27, 2018, 05:19:55 PM
so I hadn't eaten a big mac for over 25 years and last weekend ended up @ mcdonalds and my friend ordered one

the size of the Big Mac has literally shrunk to half what it was, its like a cheeseburger size now, smaller patties, buns, smaller everything

Mcdonalds is a freaking rip off

not only that, my friend said it tasted like shit

that's why I don't eat there

All places are offering smaller portions at higher prices.

Applebee’s, TGI Friday’s and Chillin all reduced their portions and increased their prices.

it's the same with everything, all the time.  corporations have to earn more and more money all the time for their shareholders.  you make more money by increasing money in and decreasing money out.  now we see a lot more decreasing money out than money going in.  soon you'll be buying q tips 1 or 2 at a time.  and they won't be cheap.

Brazilian Big Mac's meats became really thin, like 3/16 inch. They must have some special technology to make burguers that thin.

They were offering 3 different size Big Macs. One was normal size, another was smaller, and another was bigger. Maybe you ordered the small one?

I have no idea how McDonalds is still in business.  Shitty food, even worse service.

For shit's an grins I went there recently and ordered one of their "new" quarter pounders.

Still tasted like shit and there's no way that patty was even close to being a quarter of a pound even before they "cooked" it.

That disgusting, tiny quarter pounder was over $4.50 without fries or a drink.

Thanks but no.

Most terrible part about MD isn't their 'food', but the public that visits that place. Place is packed with adhd kids, neeguls, muslims, white trash and other handicapped people :-\

I wonder if anyone has actually brought a food scale with them to measure the burger? And if it's not a quarter pound can they sue??

That's BS. My one and only corporate clients (here in So.Cal) are the exclusive distributors for all of the McDonalds in the Western US and just this year, their patties went from frozen (still real) to fresh beef.

You had to ordered more than the Whopper meal. I would have laughed and gone to Chipotle or 5 Guys. Or saved my money. Here is the Burger King burger menu. Notice all the fattening "bacon this and that" burgers.

McDonalds new QP w/ cheese is real (fresh) beef now, good too.

Expensive?? You buy a QP w/ cheese, you get another for $1.00. Comes to like 6.00 for two, bring your own water or booze nips inside.
No Dindu's in this area, so only old people and white trash inside.

I wouldn't eat another one of they paid me $6.

Well, that means more healthy people---less fast food consumed. A good home cooked meal or home prepared sandwich costs less.

And $15 an hour will affect the entry level workers the most, because more automation will be involved.

Never had a big mac or a whopper. Ever. In my life. Don't eat burgers with anything other than meat, cheese ,& sauce(bbq sauce, sometimes ill put some ranch or guacamole on it in addition to the bbq)... No tomatoes, never had a tomatoes either, aside from a little chunk on a pizza or pasta sauce that i didnt notice to pick out or avoid.. And sure as fuck no lettuce. Hate the taste and even a little piece the size of finger nail clipping will fuck up a sandwich for me....plus that shit is a waste of space in my stomach...  so when I go to McD's or BK all I get are cheeseburgers.. Not even dbl cheeseburgers. Just reg cheeseburgers cuz I.want that extra bun and all the kcals in can get.

McD's chicken nuggets with honey mustard are fucken delicious though... For good reason. Look at the ingredients. There's corn syrup in them... In the fucken meat paste before their formed into "nuggets".

Meat paste + HFCS soaked & cooked in melted fat and coated in sugar paste before eaten, & people can't figure out why they're obese.

They have totally shrunk since the 80s... The large one they were selling recently (still do?) Is what it originally was more or less... Fast food has evolved and McDonalds refused to change with the times. If anything, they made it worse for themselves going with that generic starbucks look in a lot of them and shitting on their own brand identity. That stupid spurlock movie mind-fucked them as a company. They should have embraced the fact their food is unhealthy garbage in the wake of that and just went all in.

Mcdonald's old school chicken nuggets taste better than the newer ones. As did their old school apple pies.

are your serious? The Big Mac they sell to day is half the size of the BIG mac from the 70's. The recent big mac push where you could order different sizes, the large was the old regular big mac


"The big Mac has gotten smaller, by quite a bit. When the big Mac was first introduced it was made with 2 pieces of "quarter meat", as in each piece is a quarter pound before cooking. Now it is made with 2 pieces of "10-1 meat", meaning each is 1.6 ounces before cooking."
