Went to McDonalds today......

[devlinvelez]

Okay.....I went to McDonalds today and I have noticed that my Quarter-Pounder was looking really smaller than ever. So I ordered a cheesebuger and matched them up side by side (patties only).....holy shit, Batman they are the same size....wtf????

I felt like I was getting ripped off for paying more for a burger that was supposedly larger in size .....Am I the only one who see this or am I blind to the fact that is has been going on for this long and I am ignorant.....Fuck this, I am sticking to Wendy's

Their burgers were larger when I was a kid, a little more than a decade ago. They have gotten smaller over the years. F-it...they don't deserve your money anyway, with all the "nutritional value" you get from their food.

Visit their website and complain about it.

Had a problem with my fries a little while ago. I bitched and moaned and 3 days later got a £5 voucher in the mail.

 

[BlueBalls]

Maybe they ran out of QP burgers and hoped you didnt notice, you should have complained. Although you are correct the burgers are getting smaller all the time.

Im a Manager there. Im sure they just fucked you over by placing a normal patty on your sandwich instead of the normal 1/4 patty. It happens all the time cus the place is filled with morons.

So I'm not the only one that's noticed that. I remember that when I was kid McDonald's was the best burger around. I stopped eating their food when I was about 13, and I didn't eat it again until I was about 20. ukey: Nowadays, the only thing that's the same as those burgers I loved as a kid is the name. I won't eat McDonald's even if it's free, and that's happened several times where someone tries to give me some sort of crap from McDonald's, and I just say no, regardless of how hungry I am.

Retailers and restaurants know you dont want to pay more for the same thing. So.. the price is the same while portions are getting smaller.

Let me get this right.

You actually willingly walked into a McDonalds?

For Gods sake why? Why would you do that to yourself? Were you forced to or was someone keeping your spouse hostage?

If you need help, talk to the Samaritans, start a thread on here saying "please help me" or jump off a bridge. I hear that drowning is a nice way to end it. Just don't turn to the McD of death. We are here. We are listening and we can help you.

..Is that not an unfair business practice....1/4 lb. should be 1/4lb. not less.

Yup that happened often when I was a manager in another life...though NOTHING beats grabbing a chicken nugget that was pulled out too early (like after it's been in the vat only a minute) by a moron and popping it into your mouth.

That broke me of eating McDonalds.

I ordered Quarter-Pounder the other day and mine was the right size, so you did get ripped off my friend and I would get there 1-800-number and complain!:2 cents:

You got to know It only has to be 1/4lb before it's cooked not after!

I was gonna make a joke about them pulling out early, but I'll refrain from doing so. :angels:

No, no....by all means. :1orglaugh What else do you expect of a 16 year old moron. I'm surprised he knew where to stick the nugget in the first place.

Maybe it's all the illegals...:uohs::anonymous

They were probably a third or a fourth bigger when I was a kid. I remember one day when I was young teens and went there to get a cheesburger and looked at it and was like, :wtf: I know they were a lot bigger, and all of a sudden you could tell they were skimpy sliders like White Castles type shit. Oh well...

 

[Redman74]

What do expect? When you work for minimun wage do you really care how the food is prepared.

 

[Facial_King]

Jesus, what is with you???

Maybe you're just trying to bait reasonable people or something but do you have to run that "concerned"-about-the-illegals schtick non-stop like that??

 

[Facetious]

This is devlin's gramma :1orglaugh

..Is that not an unfair business practice....1/4 lb. should be 1/4lb. not less.

I remember about 20 years ago, that joint made it clear that the patty weighed 1/4 lb. prior to cooking.

I haven't eaten a fast food joint burger in years ! And I feel good !

 

[Jason z]

yea fuck mcdonalds.. wendys is better anyways.

 

[senob44]

I like the crispy chicken sandwich at wendys. 99 cents. Becks still likes Mcdonalds but we just get hamburgers or sometimes a 99 cent double cheeseburger. We never buy anything expensive or any drinks because they're all rip-offs.

Maybe their burgers didn't get smaller, maybe you just got bigger so they look smaller now. :eyeso:

But seriously it's pretty much every fast food joint that does this. I remember Subway's bread used to be a lot bigger than it is now for example.
