Article doesn't mention the minimum wage hike, but nobody is going want to pay much for their awful food.

It would be cute if they added a union Fries Guy bobblehead that plays, “Ding Fries Are Done! Ding Fries Are Done!”

From college at the U of Minnesota in 1966 we could walk across the railroad tracks to the McDonalds, buy a burger, fries and a Coke for a less than a buck, and watch the rats running down the tracks while eating dinner.

a McChicken or McDouble, four-piece chicken nuggets, fries and a drink


All of which will weigh in at a whopping 6oz

Usually it's cheaper if you order off the app.

All the chains give you a discount if you do it that way.

Who cares? I’m sure it sucks just like their overpriced items.

Probably to compete with Wendy’s $5 Biggie Bag, which is a pretty good deal these days - double-stack burger, 4 chicken nuggets, small fry, drink.

Wendy’s Junior Bacon Cheeseburger is about $3.05 and it’s good. (Littleton, CO)
The crispy chicken BLT is also good and is the same price.
And a water is free.

Why am I picturing a bug patty on a no sesame bun with a side of artificial seaweed fries.

They could put holes in their burgers like White Castle.

We don’t eat that crap anyhow. We eat at home, the old fashioned way.

A large pastrami on rye with a dill pickle for about a buck.

But wait! I was told emphatically that the convenience of Fast Food will always override the price!

If what I’ve been told was true, then why would McDonald’s bother to introduce a $5 Value Meal?

McDonald’s is your kind of place
They feed you rattlesnakes

French fries between your toes
Hamburgers up your nose

The last time I went in there
They fried my underwear

McDonald’s is your kind of place

McDonald’s food is the worst. It all tastes fake. They heavily pepper their hamburgers just to make them taste like something.

There is a big markup on the ingredients to make a meal.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/priceonomics/2017/04/07/how-much-do-the-ingredients-cost-in-your-favorite-foods/?sh=7ca8725111ed

When you go to a fast food place you are actually paying for the convenience of not making it yourself. Fast food restaurants are not competing against other fast food restaurants, they are competing against the consumer deciding if the cost of a hamburger at a fast food place is worth the 30 minutes (or less) of time for them to make it at home.

I thought the description would say the TV ads will have people eating the food in a doll house in a miniature living room because the portions will be really small. Earlier, a Hot Wheels Camaro will pull up to the drive thru.

Like the old Where’s the Beef ad with the 1.5 inch patty inside a four inch bun. (Starring Clara Peller(1902-1987))
