    I used to get breakfast at McDonald’s every day before work. I’d roll up, place my order, hand them a $5 bill, and get change back. And I had a filling breakfast after it all.

    Now they want you to finance a hash brown.

    Fast food used to be cheap AND convenient. Now it’s just convenient. The fact that I can get a McDonalds meal from the drive thru for the same price as getting a pizza delivered… why would I leave my house

      They aren’t that convenient anymore, at least here. Drive thrus and counter service are glacial in most fast food places. Legit Mexican restaurants cost less than taco bell and are generally faster, just for one example.

    I bought a filet o fish recently after many years and the thing fit within the palm of my hand. It had exactly one half of a cheese slice since that was enough to cover the entire fish patty.

    Youre just picking a target that has a higher public opinion. TB for those that eat there, consider it to be a better tasting food experience which has actually gotten better over the years. Demo man might turn out to be right…

    Edit: i meant to reply to another comment but, meh

      Always boggles my mind how much people will defend fast food. Say something bad about taco bell and people will have your head on a stick, even though it’s so gross.

        Yes, I too am confused when people like different flavors than I do. How can they not be me? I’m me, they should be me, too.
