    Not only did the prices go up but the portions shrank. The whopper is hardly a whopper anymore, its a regular sized patty in a wide bun.

    This is the main reason i dont really eat it anymore.

      Shrinkflation is real.

      In any event, it only works if folks go often enough to not notice small shrinks. If you’d go twice a year or something you’d be amazed at how and why these fuckers get away with it. Vote with your wallets, people!

        I’m not supposed to eat beef much anymore, and with McDonalds shrinking their food so much it’s hardly even tempting.

        But THIS??? I might be a weak man if McDonalds offered THIS Big Mac at a reasonable price.

        That has more meat in one of those patties than the current Big Mac has in the whole burger. The patties are so thin now that they’re going to be transparent soon. Some lady made a video recently where here pickles were thicker than the beef patties on Big Mac.
