There’s anti-American sentiment at home too
As on old fart living down under, I am not anti American. I am anti current American government and toxic big corporation. Hating McDonald’s does not equal broadly hating the American people.
Thanks friend! I promise there are still some good ones left here 🥲
Could have something to do with it costing as much as a sit down restaurant used to while tasting like it came from back water gas stations.
‘Anti-American sentiment’…
You stupid fuckers, the bigger problem is the Anti-McDonalds sentiment that’s everywhere, because your food is shit, your prices are outrageous, your restaurants are fake and ugly, and you don’t give a flying fuck about your customers or your employees!
I like to get my burgers and milkshakes from the small, locally-owned, independent, place near where I live. It is real food, cheaper than mcdonalds, a much wider selection, and just as fast. It is also a cozy, relaxed, and welcoming environment; rather than sterile, corporate, hostile, and rushed.
Shouldn’t have supported nazis
Wait, nobody ever told me about the ‘find out’ phase.
If this had been made clear I would never have fucked around!?!
Maybe we should look at their corporate donations and tell them to go fuck themselves when we see who they donated to.
Yup. Am canukian, avoiding American however and wherever possible. Including McDonald’s
I grew up with and worked at McDs in high school and college. It used to be a family place (play places, fun colors) it used to be a friendly place (you could have birthdays there, cashiers were nice, you’d run into people you know), it used to have prices that were reasonable/cheap.
It is none of those things anymore. Why on earth would I go there when there’s a burger place right across the road thar costs maybe $1 or $2 more and is actually good?
I think that has to do with them not being able to advertise to children anymore
Boo-fuckin-hoo. You vote and support like a fucking idiot then you should suffer the consequences.
Maybe they shouldn’t have let a fascist use their brand image to appear similar to the working class?
They’ve had a fucking decade to distance themselves from trump, but they loved having him serve their trash in the White House…
Now they’re shocked people don’t like fascists?
Someone on Lemmy mentioned that he eats McD’s on the regs mainly because he’s less likely to get poisoned. If there’s millions burgers at the ready, more chance of catching a good one than a bad one
For a while I practically lived off $5 at mcdicks. I would get 2 double cheese burgers, 2 mcchickens, and a large drink. $1 each. That’s was 10 years ago.
Then they started giving away free food just for using the app.
Then they had really good deals on the app.
Then they got rid of the dollar menu.
Then the only way to get cheap food was through the app.
Now even the prices and “deals” from the app are a scam for such shit food.
Now I make my own smash burgers in cast iron that are so much better you can’t even compare them to McShit and still cost half the price.
Quick tip that you may or may not remember. The “diced onion” is actually dried onion flakes, they dump them into a bucket and fill the bucket with water. You can do the same thing with onion flakes and a bowl in your kitchen, and that avoids having to cut fresh onions.
Have you seen the price of McDonalds recently? I’d rather miss a meal than get scammed like that. Fuck them.
Well, McDonald’s let Trump do a photo op there. Oh well.
You can bet McDonald’s is doing horribly whenever they bring out a limited product or do a celebrity deal.
They’ve done mcrib, celeb deal, Minecraft movie promo, and now chicken strips are back.
Yeah. Red flags. They’re desperate.
Their current ‘2nd item for $1’ is an ok deal right now. But this makes me think that won’t last.
2 sausage muffins and 2 hash browns for like $7. Throw some hot picante salsa on there and you have deal. Without that deal? It’s like $13.
Yeah but how many years ago was it that an order of hash browns used to have two?? They’re just “giving a deal” on what used to be the baseline.
Oh I’m not disagreeing. It’s shit.
But even without the has browns, two sausage muffins for ~$3.50 is solid. It’s what I expect.
Sadly it’s the bottom barrel best deal going.
That actually is solid, I might even consider it as that was my go to breakfast item back in the day!
Yep! Adding a hashbriwn to each for ~$2.50 + $1.00 more is what makes it ~$7.
And for two sausage, hash brown, spicy salsa and cheese muffins? I mean damn.
But yeahz seeing all these promos makes me know this is in the cutting block.
You can bet McDonald’s is doing horribly whenever they bring out a limited product or do a celebrity deal.
Is this an American thing? In Japan and Singapore, they have seasonal limited specials every month or so. It’s not really a “when they’re doing badly” kinda thing.
I think the McRib is just dependent on pork prices.
Nope.
Sure, blame anyone but yourself, Ronnie.
I can only speak for myself, but the reason I don’t eat at McDonald’s is because their food is just very low quality. Their coffee is good, but everything else is just crap.
If I have a good session in the gym, I’ll hit McDonald’s for a couple mcdoubles and a coke. Shit hits so hard post-workout
Finally when we cut quality so much it hurts the amount of quantity you can sell. This is what people talk about when they say balance too bad piece of shit greedy pigs cant comprehend this humanity.
