When it comes to McDonald's, everyone seems to have an opinion about what the company needs to do differently. After turning in another quarter of sliding sales and profit, McDonald's CEO Steve Easterbrook said the chain will unveil initial details on a plan to turn around its fortunes on May 4.

Keep it simple but good.

Only hire Gays!
Serve breakfast 24 hours. Serve quality steamed buns with sandwiches and high quality meat. Use beef tallow to fry the fries.
“You are correct about the fries. In 1991, McDonalds stopped frying their fries in beef tallow. They stopped doing it to cowtow to the health nazis, and those health nazis have been proven wrong since about beef fat and heart disease.”
The health nazis wrecked McDonalds. A quarter pounder in the late seventies was heavenly, but then all the regs. McDonalds has disguised things for a long time. Now the reckoning.
LARD!!!
Sell food instead of crap!
I would love that I have looked all over Az and southern CA for just such a place.
Go to Whataburger and ask them how to make a hamburger.
Stop catering to the ghetto crowd.
Decent food at reasonable prices wins. Crappy food at more than moderate prices loses.also, the counter help needs help.
Too many items on the menu.
Go back to the basics.
I just remembered Michelle Obama endorsed them a few years ago.Kiss of death for a make money company.
There was a time when K-Mart stock was collapsing and selling below the value of its real estate holdings.
Then the price shot up to match the value.
A similar buying opportunity might come up with regard to McDonald's.
Stop running “Micky D’s” commercials.
They could make the big breakfast BIG. It is nothing when compared to Jack in the Box Jumbo Breakfast Platter with sausage and bacon and eggs and hashbrown.http://www.jackinthebox.com/food/breakfast

I agree. I hate it when businesses give themselves their own nick name
Fewer items—better tasting items—The McPig sandwich is good—add more pickles. Lower the starting wage by a dollar (make it a Training wage)
FIX YOUR MENU for 1, and remove your stupid regs about CCW. I don’t shop if I can avoid it any place that voids my 2nd Amendment CCW rights.
I don’t care if your food was fantastic, I’d still BOYCOTT you over my right to CCW.
And 39 cents Big Macs....
