Current Events > Why is mcdonalds so hit or miss these days?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I love getting the double quarter pounder when its all juicy and all that but lately more often than not when I get it, the patty is dry and flavorless and is like eating an old dry sponge that makes me gag. And the cheeseburgers are often shit now too. They usually have this nasty aftertaste and you can tell theyve been sitting in a drawer stewing with those little onion bits. The onion bits are delicious when theyre fresh but now that they toss them in to stew with the patties they just make it nasty.

I've been noticing this with their fries for the past 10 years. Sometimes they'll be great, sometimes they'll be dry and practically stale.

Mcdonald's after church sunday's are great

It's busy but usually everything is on point, especially the Sprite

it's called getting older and realizing fast food is not good food

the sprite here has tasted like bitter garbage for the longest time
i don't know if they're ever going to fix it

actually I think it's because of covid. for some reason half of their menu items are gone, and everything I try to order seems to be the "last one in stock". quality has gone down since covid hit.

The McDonald's where I live is pretty hard to get served. They are only open from 11am to 9pm, drive-thru only which always seems to have a minimum of 6 cars in line at any given time.

I loved getting McDonald's chicken tenders, it was usually my go to if I got off of work and didn't feel like cooking.

It was one of the many food items they got rid of in March/April due to Covid. When I asked them around that time when they'd be bringing them back, they said "within the next three months". Yet they're still missing. Not sure if we'll ever get them back now, or what the deal is. Lots of other places still sell chicken tenders, like Hardee's, Dairy Queen, and KFC. So I wonder why McDonalds took the hit on them?

At least they're doing better than Taco Bell.

That place is still on the fence as to whether or not they still want to have a menu at all.
