    McDonald’s used to be a decent fast food choice in France. But nowadays it’s gotten super expensive and the portions are tiny, like the big Mac almost fits the palm of my hand. I’d rather go to any other fast food chain or small kebab joint when I need to scratch that itch before I’d go to McDonald’s again.

      That’s how it’s been in the US for a long time. It’s just simply not worth the money for what you get.

      Not to forget that they are extremely shitty when it comes to vegetarian options especially compared to Burger King

      Well, McD is apparently also going to start making bigger burgers.

          Ahh yes the old motto “always lie to the customer!” Shrink your product so you can later return to the original and sell for more money, or the good ol Amazon: raise your price for a short time so you can have a “sale” that was the original price…

      Yeah I hadn’t had their food in a while and we ended up going to one in Lisbon earlier this year. I was really surprised at how small the servings had gotten for what they’re charging. I don’t really understand why anybody would go there at this point. There’s a lot of decent food out there for less money.
