Let's talk about the golden arches that everyone seems to love so much, but I'm sorry to say, McDonald's is overrated and overpriced.
Now, I know some of you are already clutching your Big Macs and ready to throw them at me. But before you do, hear me out. Sure, McDonald's has been around for ages, and it's become a staple in fast food culture. French fries are McDonald's top product; the restaurant sells about 9 million pounds of fries every day and about 3.29 billion pounds every year. It's estimated that McDonald's sells 75 burgers every second.
But let's be honest, the quality of the food has decreased over the years, and the prices have gone up like a rocket.
Let's start with the menu. If you're a burger lover, then you'll agree that McDonald's burgers are just not as good as they used to be. The buns are soggy, the meat is dry, and the cheese tastes like plastic. Plus, have you ever noticed how small the patties have become? It's like they're trying to trick us into thinking we're eating a decent-sized burger, but really, it's just a tiny, sad excuse for a patty.
Now, let's talk about the fries. While I can't deny that they used to be pretty darn amazing, it seems that they've lost their mojo in recent years.
I mean, have you ever eagerly ripped open that little packet of fries, only to find a sad, cold, soggy mess? It's like they've been sitting in the Arctic tundra before making their way to your tray. And don't even get me started on the times when they're either overcooked and crispy enough to snap your teeth or undercooked and as floppy as a wet noodle.
Sure, you could buy frozen fries and fry them up yourself, but where's the fun in that? I say, we take matters into our own hands and demand better fries from McDonald's.
And don't even get me started on the prices. McDonald's is supposed to be fast food, right? Well, their prices would suggest otherwise. A simple meal can easily cost you upwards of $10, and for what? A soggy burger and cold fries? No, thank you.
Now, I'm not saying that all fast food is terrible. There are plenty of other options out there that are just as quick and delicious, if not more so. So, let's stop pretending that McDonald's is the be-all and end-all of fast food.
McDonald's is overrated and overpriced. The quality of the food has decreased, the prices have gone up, and there are better options out there. So, next time you're craving some fast food, skip the golden arches and try something new. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you.
