Why does everyone hate McDonalds now? It used to be /ck/s favorite food.

Stagnation smells like shit

expensive
prepared by disgusting animals
diarrhea

McD's food is just plain fucking boring, even the double quater pounder burger is losing its lustre, big mac, mc chicken, all tastes like asshole now and the burgers and fries are either cold as a rock or they constantly fuck up a modified order, desu its just easier to learn and make your own burger and fries at home, tastes better anyhow and costs u less $$

When you grow pass the age of 15 your standards for food goes up dramatically

>>21522507 (OP)
People always hated it, but it was cheap enough to justify the shit quality. Now it's practically on par with actual local burger joints so why the fuck would anyone go to mcdonalds?

>>21522507 (OP)
People pretend to hate Mcdonalds because they think it makes them smart and better than other people. Reality is Mcdonalds is tasty. People like it. It's not even that unhealthy for you. Prices have gone up but it's still the cheapest way to eat out by far with the only closest competition being other fast food places. Anyone who says they hate Mcdonalds is a retard. The only reason to hate Mcdonalds is if you live near blacks in which case you don't want to go to Mcdonalds because of the blacks. But that's not Mcdonalds's fault and you should just move your ass as far away from blacks as possible.

literally everyone in this thread says that mcd's food is bland and boring af, you can only eat the same old shit before you get bored of it or you miraculously regain your tastebuds by eating "real food". You sound like the type of person that does not cook much or very little or has parents do it for you, just sad, you need to grow up, get a job and move out of your folks house, pronto!

They're objectively wrong.

>>21522507 (OP)
Super Size Me and it's cosequences have been a disaster for the human race

>cut portion size
>cut quality
>raise price
>lock coupons behind garbage app that collects your location data to see what other sloppa establishments you patronize
>become de facto landlord franchisee company
mcd's is at the absolute cutting edge of pushing people to the limit of what they're willing to tolerate and still ultimately purchase

>>21522902
Every single place is cutting portions and quality while raising prices to cope. Should be mad at the government.

/ck/ is poor
mcdonalds is too expensive now

>>21522910
for what?

>>21522507 (OP)
I like it, but haven't had it in 6 months. Too based to be eating slop very often.

>>21522914
>poor people save money
huh?
poor people are the ones who do shit like go to mcdicks every day

Absolutely mind blowing posts. I guess it's all about where you live. Lots of American cities seem to have no better options I'm guessing otherwise posts like this would make no sense. In europe there are much better options in just about every city, not just big cities. When it comes to burgers McDonald's is the bottom of the barrel, there are non chain burger joints everywhere that don't serve frozen patties that sit in containers for hours. This concept is outdated. The burgers taste like shit compared to every freshly made burger with patties that weren't frozen. It's really easy to do that at home too.
The only reason McDonald's still exists is because they spend billions on marketing. Let me repeat it again if you serve frozen patties you are a third tier burger joint, it's not the 80's anymore

>>21522914
too expensive for what you get
still cheap in general

>>21523034
Mcdonalds is objectively the most successful burger joint on the planet of all time. Your “better options” only exist in your mudhole because they are objectively not better. Otherwise they would be the top dog and not the bottom bitch. But by all means continue eating turd burgers.

>>21522507 (OP)
where's the beef?

This. Diversity killed this global billion dollar company

>>21522507 (OP)
What happened with fast food? Its trash but comfort food and some tasted good a few years ago, but now all taste like literal shit

>>21522507 (OP)
Because it's fucking EXPENSIVE and being shilled here nonstop. It's annoying and inorganic. It's multiple threads a day. It's YOU right now.

It's a big evil corporation; the 1%. And as the rich get richer while we 99% get less, they just raise the prices and expect us to keep shelling out for it.

FUCK THAT
I'm not downloading mcApp and I'm not paying $4 for a "value menu" burger. It's not good food. It's addictive.
It's chemical plastic artificiality.

>>21522567
I would like to see a photo of the kind of retarded and stubborn and stupid kid who would write this post. I'm genuinely curious what such a fucking moron looks like.

I'm guessing pic related.

>>21522920
The government can just make things cheaper and ask corporations to charge less and make less money for their shareholders. Because the people who represent us in the government are not lobbied by corporations. They work for US!!

LOLOLOLOL

>>21524014
Cheap in comparison to what? It's not cheaper than grocery shopping and cooking. It is cheaper than a four star restaurant.
I guess these threads get a lot of posts which just mean to make it clear that the poster is comfortable and eating there does not break the bank for them. But I'm not sure by which metric these days you'd call it "cheap in general". Cheap is a word I'd maybe use for gas station food. Not really anything is cheap anymore. Raw potatoes and cabbages and carrots maybe.

>>21524126
Nobody gives a shit how successful your burger CHAIN is when you serve dog food to people who don't know better. When you're underage you don't know better but you're an adult and yet you still choose to eat frozen patty burgers at McDonald's over local restaurants that grind their meat every day fresh and usually even bake their own buns. You're no better than a n

>>21524126
Successful =/= highest quality.
They had to really compromise those burgers in fact to become so successful. Just watch the Founder movie or any of the many documentaries about the corporation. They are in it for the money, not to make good food. And they do make money and they don't make good food. lol

>>21522507 (OP)
I can accept mediocre slop saved purely by nostalgia appeal when it's cheap but when its expensive? pass

>>21522507 (OP)
is it just me or did McD's fries use to be extremely salty?

i'm actually eating it right now and would normally defend it, but the app wasn't working right and i was already stuck on the way home/in line. $30 for three sandwiches with tax. a filet o fish and two quarter pounders, roughly $9.39 each.

fuckin sucks

>>21524532
You'll eat it again soon too. You never fucking learn. You just can't resist that signature "flavor".

>>21522534
>pass
At what age will you learn how to speak English?

>>21524607
I'm siding with the foreigner/typo perp on this one. Mcds is for fucking children who respond to sugar and bright colors and toys. There are a lot of manchildren like you who defend it. lol

It used to be worth the money, it no longer is. Now it's smaller portions of food that taste worse and cost more money.

>>21524617
Not defending it, just noting the irony of you (I know it's you, samefag) talking about "maturity" while displaying 7th-grade-tier mastery of the English language

>>21524621
Who's me?

>some dysgenic clickbaiting zoomer on youtube
The real reason is that it's too expensive for goyslop, but somehow that didn't stop everyone eating it up for the last ten years of "Black Sideshow Freak I've Never Heard Of" meals.

>>21524456
More successful = objectively better.
You can have you own subjective opinion but objectively McDonalds is good. The people have spoken.

I could never hate Mickey D's. I'll chup it up there until I die.

>>21522567
This. People like to bitch about it to be contrary and hear themselves talk. They say things like this >>21522902, but without specifics, because they just want to sound cool. Truth is it's not great, but it's good and it's convenient.

>>21525056
There is nothing good or convenient about it.

It gets mogged by other fast food sloppa like Wendy's, BK, Five Guys, etc.
It gets mogged by random burger joints which offer a better product for the same price now.
It gets mogged by cooking at home.

So, if McDonald's is inferior in quality (both of ingredients and on the end product), and can't beat the alternatives in price or speed, there is nothing convenient about it now is there?

>>21522507 (OP)
Moderns day McD's is utter trash when compared to early 90's.

>>21522507 (OP)
it's a not only a rip-off, it's fucking insulting how high they have raised their prices.

>>21522507 (OP)
everyday some loser on /ck/ twerks for sloporations

>>21522507 (OP)
Proh because it's shit.

>>21525814

McDonalds is in every country
Not only is it in every country, locals, not solely tourists, but locals frequent McDonalds in other countries
America does not have wide spread chain restaurants serving whatever you local shitty cuisine is, yet other countries has our McDonalds?
It's because it's good and your local food is shit
>b-but french/german/cuisine/italian/uk cuisine is the best in the world!
If it's not in every country to the extent of McDonalds, it's just objectively shit
If it was really so delicious, it would have been brought over and it would've succeeded massively like pizza did

But go ahead, keep being the cool contrarian with your "controversial" "actually McDonalds is bad" take

why does his skin look like my feces?

>>21522567
>still the cheapest way to eat out
One of my younger family members loves McDicks. He gets their stupid ass crispy chicken sandwich meal. It costs 10 fucking dollars. Ten dollars for a sandwich, medium fry and a drink. I can eat out for that price easily.

It was good when it was cheap and fast but its no longer cheap or fast.

>>21526012
so literally the opposite of your mom

>>21522507 (OP)
It really comes down to quality vs price.
Why go to. McDonald's and pay 20$ when I can go to steak and shake for the same price?

>>21522567
When you can get much better food for the same price either at local burger places or even red Robin or chilis to go these days? Nah

Part of paying for food from a restaurant is not having to second guess all of the ingredients.
Oh, the chicken nuggets have aluminum in them? Ok... what else can I get... uh... um...?
I could pay $10 at McD for one burger or $12 at a different restaurant where the food is real

You're a retarded troll. Burgerville has better hamburgers and fewer locations. You're a populist moron. I'm sorry you have to stoop to this to feel good about yourself.

>>21525072
If it's one block closer than BK and you're a huge fat lard like these people defending mcds, that makes it more convenient to their lazy asses.

>>21525953
lol, how much are they paying you?
This is pathetic.

Their brutalist remodels are not inviting.

>>21527176
also nobody around to take your order, use the kiosk that niggers and jeets touch, then wait 20 minutes for your 'fast food' slop prepared by unhygienic lard asses

I can't imagine ever eating there again.

Mc$lop

too expensive for what it is, and people look at it like a rip off and it's insulting to think they would pay that. That turns to resentment. Even if they actually buy anything they wont be satisfied so the brand is doubly fucked.

>>21524443
Where did you find this picture of me?

>>21522507 (OP)
If the burger is smaller than my fist it can fuck off.
Why would I spend money on something less fun to cram than my hand?

>>21528225
That's why McDonald's will be out of business in a decade unless they radically change their strategy

>>21522507 (OP)
>Prices:
They got expensive. I used to be able to buy an awesome amount of food for pocket change, now they're on par with restaurants.
>Availabillity:
They used to be the only places that you could walk into at 3:00 am to fullfill your drunk cravings. Today most places I know rarely are open beyond midnight, and with delivery services on the rise, there are a multitude of services with more competitive opening hours (and better prices).
>Engineered to shit:
There's no feeling of satiation. When I eat a pizza, döner, noodels, a sandwich from the bakery, or a burger from a non-franchise place, most of the time I feel sated either while I'm eating or when I'm done. When eating McD shit you're either unsatisfied or bloated. There's no point at which you feel like you had a nice meal and could go on with your day.
One thing I have to give to them though is, I never got sick from their stuff (besides overeating). So e.g. when I'm travelling, I'm trying to get some quick callories diring a stop, and the only options are mystery meat, khlav kalash and McDonald's I'm getting something from the latter.

>>21522507 (OP)
For me, it's not the McChicken. I had one the other day and it was just a fuckin tiny stale chicken patty with too much mayo. Fries are good for like, 2 minutes then they go cold. Quality overall has dropped immensely

>>21522567
McDonald's is tasty but... it's also clearly low quality food. The guy saying people only ate it because it was cheap was right.

>>21522507 (OP)
It's quite good.
The value menu with the classic cheese burger is my favorite.

>Burgerville has better hamburgers and fewer locations.
Objectively these statements contradict one another.
If they truly were the better fast food restaurant they would have more locations.
Your personal opinion doesn't matter in the face of objective truth.
