Good luck to you-—you will be a big hit for folks that enjoy eating.

That video made me hungry.

Poutine Mac.

I’d hit it.

But what does this have to do with Ted Cruz winning on the first ballot?

[grey_whiskers]

Less product going out for the same money, like cereal boxes shrinking.

Or like Ted Cruz!

Nine times out of ten, a quarter-pounder with cheese is what I get when I order a quarter-pounder without cheese. What is that so hard? I always ask myself.

[boop]

Aw man they have the metric system over there. They don't know what the **** a quarter pounder is.

Now what do they call a Whopper?

[boop]

If ONLY I could have a taste of anything on that menu!

I bet everything was delicious.

I remember getting two hamburgers, fries and a Coke — and change back from $1.

Long, long ago.

Big Mac Monday, $2.19 each.

Two Months ago they were $1.99 on Big Mac Moinday.

They must look at you and think, this person is Cheese Worthy.

Consider it a compliment. LOL

Check out the big brain on boop.

[dhs12345]

Yup. And probably an inch bigger in diameter.

Smaller burger with a larger price - McDonalds truly is tone deaf. The fact is McDonalds has become too expensive for what you get and the competition is killing them.

[1Old Pro]

Yep, the only way for McDonalds to save the day is to go to a $4.99 meal - change back from your $5. Provide a Big Mac, Fries, soda and cookie and do it quick and they might get back some business.
