I go to McD every few days. The Chicken strips with Pioneer gravy are good but over $3 for three of them.
The dollar coke just went up to $1.30, this for a medium sized "large" drink. McDouble is still pretty good. Prices are not going up, it is just that the dollar is declining. |

I know Arfcom only has beautiful women cook five star meals for them, but I actually like McDonalds hamburgers.
I mean they don't taste like a homemade burger or anything, but they have a very unique fast food taste I crave at times. |

Have to laugh at McDonalds commercials and them being the "official sponsor" of the olympics. No one is reaching for a burger and fries after a workout.

McDonald's, the food tastes like shit and reeks like death if even an empty bag is left in the car for an hour.

Yeah.... he looks fucking creepy. I mean he's not as bad as that psycho happy meal box I saw, but still he is creepy.
Hell why don't they update that fucking clown instead? Japan has some great versions of Ronald in one of their commercials: 
Or maybe they should look at what's making other fast food places draw in more customers.... better quality food and healthier options. |

Justin Timberlake has really gone down hill So, why can't McDonalds just stop washing their foods in vats of ammonia and have good food without the chemical "my body hates me for what I just did" after taste? McDonald's hamburgers give me upset stomach and the craps. In the 80s-90s things were fine and then suddenly it was a brick wall. I just can't eat it any more.

As others have mentioned there would be a huge cost associated with changing from microwaving frozen hockey puck burgers in equipment (real grills), training, food sanitation, supply chain. Would be a big gamble and the first time someone gets sick from improperly handled fresh meat. |

I agree the meat has some sort of chemically "meaty" taste infused in the frozen hockey puck patties. Tastes a bit like Worcestershire sauce. McDonalds is hands down the bottom rung of coast to coast fast food chain burgers. Everyone elses is much better tasting. |

Dunno buddy - all I see it is from my perspective; As a child I remember looking at those characters and thinking "wtf?" in kid thoughts. Maybe it's just me. I couldn't agree more - Hardees is one of my favorite stops when I'm on the road. I usually stop at one outside of Knoxville when I'm on my way to the Smokies. If all fast food would emulate Chic-Fil-A the world would be a better place. My mind keeps comparing fast food restaurants to the garishly green public bathrooms that you find at older state rest stops.. I don't know why.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. McDonald's has saturated their market. They need to introduce a new brand, distinctly separate from McDonald's, but using the systems McD's has already established and perfected. All their energy is being spent treading water. Don't try to be everything to everybody. Stay core. If they want to compete with Taco Bell, start a taco chain. Start an express Chinese chain. Branch out. They'll go down in flames trying to reinvent themselves every couple years. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile this. |

See Bubba Burgers for reference, But back when they fried their burgers, and deep fried their french fries in beef fat, McDs was fucking awesome.

I had a chicken sandwich there a while back and was frankly shocked how good it was. It actually looked like the photo, with leafy green lettuce, wheat bun and crispy golden brown chicken.
Only problem is most of their restaurants look like a Somali civil war broke out in the dining area shortly after breakfast. |

no. they need to go back to cheap. lose all the fancy shit and offer burgers fries and maybe a chicken patty. instead they are trying to be hip with the "high quality" beef at restaurant prices. buy grade A beef and make fucking sub 2 dollar burgers. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
With the size and scope of McD's they could get some amazing deals of quality product instead of trying to shovel shit into the mouths of people. I can get a fresh 1/2 lb burger, bacon, fixings, fries, and beer for $10. Big Mac meal is almost $8. no. they need to go back to cheap. lose all the fancy shit and offer burgers fries and maybe a chicken patty. instead they are trying to be hip with the "high quality" beef at restaurant prices. buy grade A beef and make fucking sub 2 dollar burgers. I never said "expensive". My comparison was to show what you can get for your money. I can get a large fresh burger with a ton of fresh fixings, a boat load of fries, and a beer for $2 more then McD's sells a shit burger, stale and old fixings, and mostly-soggy fries along with a fountain coke. Relatively speaking that soda is probably the best part of the meal. Fresh patties, real grill, and quality materials do not need to be expensive when you are dealing with as big of a supply network as McD. I'd rather pay $2 for a decent cheese burger then $1.29 for that shit they are calling food. |

I'll bet if they had spent half of their advertising budget on coming up with good tasting, non garbage flavored menu items, they would be more popular than ever. I won't hold my breath. Our local McKrappo's hires short bus riders judging by how often they screw up orders. I wrote a letter to corporate after getting fed up with their lousy service, some years back, accusing them of hiring too many mentally challenged workers. I was filled with glee when I received a reply from the owners of the local store wherein they denied my insinuations about their help. They missed the point and of course the service and especially the food has not improved much over the years. Why should they give a shit as long as long as they are raking in profits with no competition for miles around in our very small village?
