Am I the only one that likes those little Sausage and Egg Burritos they have? I think they are prepackaged and Nuked, but I really enjoy them with their Picante Sauce.

Try them with some "Fire sauce" from Taco Bell.

“Cook the fries in beef tallow and people will come back.”

Exactly !

I haven’t eaten their fries in years because of that change.

They used to be incredible.

50 bucks to take your family to dinner at McDonalds?

This is news to me. I think they’ll be fine.

They need better ads though, their ad for the (good idea) of all day breakfast makes me want to slit my wrists. #bleedtodeath

I actually recall those 15c McD's hamburgers in the early 60's.

And the sign in front that said "XXX Million Served", with the XXX in lights that were updated.

It was the perfect scam. They shrunk a couple things here and there at a time and not many people thought a lot about it.

“See? Obama’s economy worked! prices didn’t rise like everyone said they would!!!”

Of course not. They shrunk the package, kept the price the same or slightly raised it and everything was just fine! People now buy more as in your cereal example to have what they had before, spending considerably more in the long term and poof! everything is just fine!

No massive outcry since so many people either never notice or say ‘Well thats just how it is now...”

“California, maybe late fifties, early sixties, and it became what it's known to be today.

There was one in Glendale, CA in 1952 that we used to stop at after the drag races when we were short of money, the burgers were 13 cents or a dollar dozen.

If we weren’t broke we went to Bobs down the street for a real hamburger!!!!

when I was a kid there was a place in my home town called zandys they sold burgers fifteen cents a piece or 10 for a dollar. the meat patties were small little things on a regular bun. most of us kids would buy a bag of them and turn the 10 burgers into 3 hamburgers 2 with a descent amount of meat and 1 that was short a meat patty that along with a 25 cent coke or a 50 cent shake malt. I am feeling old now

There’s Mickey D’s right next to an In N Out Burger in Napa, CA. There’s always a line at IOB, right up till closing time at 1 a.m., but Mickey D’s is mostly a ghost town. IOB burgers are cooked to order and they are tasty! I’d rather go hungry than eat at a McDonald’s. Their food is just crap!

Shoot, I don’t think there is an IOB in my entire state.
Closest thing is maybe Five Guys, if you really, really
like lots and lots of french fries.

Can’t afford it? Goodness. My family of 6 goes there and walk out spending only 50 bucks

Eight bucks and change per person at a McDs? That's insane.

In a perverse way, having the founder of IOB pass, was a good thing for the rest of California because he refused to put in a location that he could not drive to from his home and back the same day, which limited his expansion to the LA Basin. For a fast food burger, IOB is hard to beat and the restaurants are spotless!

I think it’s way over-rated. Taste bland and dry. With all the hoopla when they came to TX I thought they would be far better. IMO

We have Culver’s here and their burgers are tasty and juicy. Butter burgers. Plus their crinkle fries and milkshakes are delicious.

On the road we stop at Steak and Shake restaurants. All made to order.

My favorite burgers in Texas,
I’m embarrassed to admit,
are Whataburgers.

Hmmm. Now there IS a Whataburger (good stuff) coupon in-store where you sign on the internet and get one for like $4.

BUT the secret is, you don’t have to have the rare coupon. ANY Whataburger receipt works. Just skip past the code, don’t give out any personal info, boom you’re good.

And hey, you’re giving them more business. Win-win.

MMMMM Spicy Ketchup.

I boycott McDonald’s because Ronald McDonald House (and affiliates) contribute to Planned Parenthood.

“Ronald McDonald House: has worked with and/or funded Planned Parenthood (includes affiliates)”

snip fromhttp://www.traditionalcatholicpriest.com/2013/09/06/list-of-businesses-that-support-planned-parentmurderhood/ (plus, OTHER businesses)

I wonder how many other prolifers do the same?

Actually, I don’t want businesses that I boycott to go out of business, but I do want them to feel it enough to reconsider and not contribute to PP.
