Dear McDonald's - is this sufficient?
April 6th 2011 09:22
OK I admit - I do like me some Micky D's. It is like a monthly fix kind of thing. I used to live on their breakfast until I started looking like a Big Mac myself and now get a regular fix. I even reviewed the Grand Angus because I thought it was the best burger they had released since the Big Mac - a huge favourite since I was about 8yrs old.
Today I was excited to try yet another of the deluxe range. The Grand Crispy Chicken and I loved it. Their deluxe range is such a great idea and the burgers are actually closer to being burgers than the other crap they have been churning out. It has actual salad on them and they don't look like a divine burger on the poster and look like a pancake of crap on the table.
What my issue was were the fries - one of the best thing McDonald's has ever made. Constantly voted best chips in the world but let me know if I am wrong - does this look like i have been completely ripped off - do staff not see the crap they are putting in the paper bag before they hand it over. When I got back to my place of work and opened my brown paper picnic bag of Micky Ds I found utter disappointment - not only that but my bloody Diet Coke was completely flat. McDonald's Warringah Mall - GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER, this was a disgrace.
Am I mistaken or does the above picture look nothing like the below image??
Another thing I have noticed is that Big Macs are smaller than when I was a kid. I used to joke that it was just me getting bigger but when I Google "has the big mac gotten smaller" I get 2360000 responses. I have found multiple pages stating it has been proven they have shrunken the Big Mac for profits sake. I do know the Big Mac in the US is larger by 60gms so maybe we used to be the same and they changed it but I really think they used to be huge and you could see the meat all the way to the edge of the bun but now you have to open it to see the meat. NOT COOL MICKY D!
Not happy Jan - I want my fries to at least be over the half way part of my packet. Now that's off my chest I feel much better - but healthy food for another month
Where was my Mi Goreng hahahaha

No, none of their food look anything like their advertising. How good do the cheeseburgers look on TV and when you actually unwrap one, it looks like something that my younger sister would've made when she was 5!
Either their quality has decreased overtime, or that I am growing out of them.
If I must have fast food, I prefer Hungry Jacks. I rely on the one at Central Station when I work late

For work lunches, when I do not have left overs, or the motivation to make stuff, there is the food courts of my work. Every meal has to be different and I am actually about to write an article on work lunches, but with all the variety eventually I want a Maccas meal - the one place I loathe and avoid is KFC - it is basically Oil in the disguise of chicken.
I do like the Hungry Jacks Whopper - and they make the BEST frozen drinks - love them as a treat occasionally. Plus for crap junk food - you can't beat the "Stunner Meal" for affordability.

We only grow out of things if we allow ourselves to grow up
What is that saying:
Works for me
The US just get bigger because Maccas is cheaper and twice the size. You will notice now Maccas is not allowed to upsell you the products to a larger size - this is from that move SUPERSIZE ME - where the guy ate Maccas for months and nearly died.
