Could have something to do with it costing as much as a sit down restaurant used to while tasting like it came from back water gas stations.
Shocking idea it may perhaps be because
- McDonalds “food” tastes like shit
- McDonalds “food” costs a ton of money
- There are burger spots (especially local ones) that can match or beat McDonalds pricing for significantly better burgers
- People can not afford to spend obscene amounts of money of food
In Canada, teen burgers are 5$ right now where I’m at. I’ll take a Canadian teen burger for 5$ over the more expensive shit burgers from McDonalds.
What is a teen burger? Is it made from the meat of teens? Sounds exotic lol
Burger from A&W, though not the same A&W in the States.
As on old fart living down under, I am not anti American. I am anti current American government and toxic big corporation. Hating McDonald’s does not equal broadly hating the American people.
Thanks friend! I promise there are still some good ones left here 🥲

Wait, nobody ever told me about the ‘find out’ phase.
If this had been made clear I would never have fucked around!?!
‘Anti-American sentiment’…
You stupid fuckers, the bigger problem is the Anti-McDonalds sentiment that’s everywhere, because your food is shit, your prices are outrageous, your restaurants are fake and ugly, and you don’t give a flying fuck about your customers or your employees!
I like to get my burgers and milkshakes from the small, locally-owned, independent, place near where I live. It is real food, cheaper than mcdonalds, a much wider selection, and just as fast. It is also a cozy, relaxed, and welcoming environment; rather than sterile, corporate, hostile, and rushed.
Love the way the local places tend not to have employees that have been so abused they lost all the light behind their eyes.
I grew up with and worked at McDs in high school and college. It used to be a family place (play places, fun colors) it used to be a friendly place (you could have birthdays there, cashiers were nice, you’d run into people you know), it used to have prices that were reasonable/cheap.
It is none of those things anymore. Why on earth would I go there when there’s a burger place right across the road thar costs maybe $1 or $2 more and is actually good?
Right? The McDs I remember growing up was a themed one. It was trying to be like a 50s soda shop. They had a model (or actual?) grill for a retro 50s car coming out of the wall. There were neon light decorations around the place and pictures of Elvis. They played rockabilly music instead of top 50 recent hits or whatever.
McDs these days reminds me of airport bathrooms.

I think that has to do with them not being able to advertise to children anymore
Well, McDonald’s let Trump do a photo op there. Oh well.
Maybe we should look at their corporate donations and tell them to go fuck themselves when we see who they donated to.
Yup. Am canukian, avoiding American however and wherever possible. Including McDonald’s
The anti-American sentiment is true but that’s not the reason why sales are declining for them. It’s the rising price.
QPC with medium fry went up to $13.89 here. Insanity for a garbage burger (for the price.) I could see it for possibly $7 but even then, not worth it.
For a while I practically lived off $5 at mcdicks. I would get 2 double cheese burgers, 2 mcchickens, and a large drink. $1 each. That’s was 10 years ago.
Then they started giving away free food just for using the app.
Then they had really good deals on the app.
Then they got rid of the dollar menu.
Then the only way to get cheap food was through the app.
Now even the prices and “deals” from the app are a scam for such shit food.
Now I make my own smash burgers in cast iron that are so much better you can’t even compare them to McShit and still cost half the price.
Quick tip that you may or may not remember. The “diced onion” is actually dried onion flakes, they dump them into a bucket and fill the bucket with water. You can do the same thing with onion flakes and a bowl in your kitchen, and that avoids having to cut fresh onions.
I haven’t eaten at a Mcdonalds since I was in elementary school because my entire family agrees that their food sucks.
Boo-fuckin-hoo. You vote and support like a fucking idiot then you should suffer the consequences.
I can only speak for myself, but the reason I don’t eat at McDonald’s is because their food is just very low quality. Their coffee is good, but everything else is just crap.
If I have a good session in the gym, I’ll hit McDonald’s for a couple mcdoubles and a coke. Shit hits so hard post-workout
Finally when we cut quality so much it hurts the amount of quantity you can sell. This is what people talk about when they say balance too bad piece of shit greedy pigs cant comprehend this humanity.
Sure, blame anyone but yourself, Ronnie.
mcdonalds is shit food, if you’re charging more than a dollar for a sandwich, then it’s way too much.
