So recently, McDonald’s came out with their “Minecraft Movie” meals - kinda like a happy meal, but it came with a whole-ass Big Mac. I find this so funny because essentially, they’re admitting that they’ve shrinkflation’d their food so badly that their flagship burger is now so small, it’s suitable for kids who are young enough to want the Minecraft theme and toys!!
Or a lot of minecraft fans are adults now.
Madness.
Went for the first time in probably 5 years the other day. 15 freaking dollars just for me. Ridiculous. I’ll just keep going to my local burger place for that price
for 15 bucks you can get 2 double doubles from in and out. Or a tripple from whataburger. Or an actually good burger from a bar with a grill.
I went for nostalgia too. It’s like 20 bucks for a combo now in Canada!!! It’s wild.
And here I am, having not eaten McDonald’s in years because it tastes like shit.
hunger is the best seasoning.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been in a mc d’s, but when I used to frequent them it was because there weren’t other options around. I do fondly remember their anus burger as being moderately palatable to my (at the time) minimum wage worker self. I’m sure if I tried it again today I’d vomit. These days I prefer my greasy burger fix from bars, I know it will be good because they can’t stay in business with bad food.

I get that reference.
I don’t
In 2018, there was a show called She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, which was a sort of reboot of the old '80s cartoon of (nearly) the same name. The girl in the comment above my OP is Entraptra, one of the princesses. She’s obsessed with miniature versions of food.
OP’s post had a miniature-sized combo meal in the last panel.
My roomate got 40 chicken nuggets for 10 dollars. Still seems like an alright deal to me but I don’t eat fast food much so I don’t really know what is a good price
Edit: just saw kolanaki’s comment wtf
You can get massive bags of basically the same thing from a frozen food chain for £10, legit 100 nuggies in a bag.
McDonalds is dogshit value.
Damn, crazy how cheap meat can get
Mechanically separated meat is cheap and has very little nutritional value.
And this is the comment that made me notice i havent seen amything from kolanaki, and in fact can’t see anything from them newer than like, february. Weirdness.
Edit: ah. Instance ban from blahaj.zone
Yeah, things are weird today. Back in the day getting the meal deal numbers 1 through whatever seemed to get you the best price. Now I cant remember the last time I just picked the number to order. With the apps and other deals they set up, they make us go through hoops to get somewhat decent pricing. App normally offers free fry and they run the pick 2 where 2nd is a dollar and you can choose a double cheeseburger, 6 piece nug, or small fry. So for around $4 you can get a 12 piece or a 6 piece and a double cheese. Not the worst deal for $4. Oh also being flexible about what you want helps, but also sucks.
And they taste worse than they used to as well.
All he really wanted was the Happy Meal toy.
