McDonald’s is already screwed (at the lower wage levels); I’ve noticed a lot less customers there over the past couple of years, and the stock price seems to bear this out. The food is too expensive, and people that loved it as teens can barely stomach it 20 years later. Today’s teens are more likely to eat tacos than Big Macs...
If McDonalds were to offer decent tacos, I'd probably buy them....and they'd probably double their business.
McD’s food is too expensive. They have a discount menu for $1.19 including a double burger. They have a sausage and egg burrito at breakfast for just over a buck.
If you want a big mac combo it can be expensive, but that’s just part of the menu.

Indeed, McD’s food literally makes us ill now. Tried once or twice over the past few years for nostalgia’s sake and GREATLY regretted it!
