god fucking right dude i know those were the fuck days

What? Don't you like your Big Mac to be 1/2 the size it used to be 20 years ago and cost twice as much?

Food could be free and PotD would still call it too expensive
Hell, they could pay YOU to eat it and they still would

well yes, ideally i should be paid to eat

Everything is expensive our country is seriously just unraveling soon they wont be able to make chocolate ever again

Given the quality of their food, they should really be paying you to eat it.

I only ever bother with the saver menu. That works out though as I actually love their double cheese burgers the most. I should try the triple one at some point.

Funny enough they actually did for me when I worked there as we got a meal each day.

Taco Bell is still pretty affordable, the one near me anyways

you can get one of their box combos for around $10 and it is a ton of food, sometimes a couple meals worth

Most places I eat at have doubled their prices in the last few years. It's fucked

Europeans would rejoice if America never made chocolate again. Apparently our chocolate tastes like vomit.

their chocolate is worse.

Yeah I always use the app to at least get free things. But honestly their double quarter pounders aren't bad quality for the price. The patty is decently thick and seasoned well.

I remember when we had a dollar menu... it's now $1.89

Pretty sure you just got put on some hit lists, watch your back dude

Unless you mean mcdonalds uses hersheys

I'll keep this in mind next time I'm in the mood for fast food

Less people should eat McDonald's. Ideally no one should eat McDonald's. Can't believe people pay for it without deals too, chuck a couple more bucks at your meal and you can get entirely real food from somewhere else rather than chemical ridden, fried, greasy, or fake concoctions. McMuffins and Quarter Pounders are the only thing with fresh ingredients on the menu basically, though even they include american kraft singles processed fake ass cheese.

mcdonalds uses american cheese, not processed dairy slices

and yes american cheese is a real cheese, it's won cheese awards

"McDonalds uses their very own blend of processed cheddar cheese.
Their blend is 60% cheddar cheese and 40% other ingredients, which include water, salt, whey powder, butter, milk proteins, emulsifying salts, natural cheese flavoring, and food coloring."

Sounds processed to me. And just 60% actual cheese.

Also I'm aware that american (cheddar) cheese is a real thing, but that would be from a block, not from kraft singles or similar processed cheeses.

Ideally, the entire fast food industry should be abolished. They take actual food and turn it into poison for profit.

its 60% cheddar but many of the other components I wouldnt strictly call no cheese when they are incorporated in to make a new cheese product as the end result, they are part of a new cheese that has undergone an abhorrent metamorphosis.

Im personally just not a big fan of the flavor of American cheese, even the non processed varieties Im not crazy about. Its totally cheese though and I get why some places use it for cheeseburgers. The flavor is more mild compared to cheddar which can have a bit of a bite to it but a lot of people wanna taste the beef, and American cheese has a great melt factor to it by design.

yeah its because of what some companies do with milk but also because cocoa grown in the americas is just more acidic and not as smooth tasting

still good imo though

so, kraft processed dairy slices cannot legally be called cheese. none of them can if they don't have specific ingredients and are made a specific way. that's why they're called a cheese product

Kraft singles do not qualify for the US FDA Pasteurized Processed Cheese labeling. For this reason Kraft labels them Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product to avoid FDA sanctions. They were calling Kraft Singles Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Food until the FDA gave them a warning in December 2002 that the product could not be legally labeled as "Pasteurized Processed Cheese Food" due to the inclusion of milk protein concentrates. Kraft complied with the FDA order by changing the label to the current Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product.

however, mcdonalds calls their cheese "pasturized process american cheese" which actually means that it is american cheese. not a prepared cheese product.

so, you're wrong. it's american cheese, because legally it cannot be called what they call it otherwise.

Food prices are a big part of why I'm gonna request a fairly large raise at the end of this year. I get a year end review and I'm fucking ready. The best part is that I know they need me and they will reasonably accommodate

I went to great clips for the first time since the pandemic and realized they upped the price of hair cuts. i wont be back. il continue to cut my own hair.

I've been cutting my own hair for years now. I've watched a lot of YouTube videos and have honestly gotten pretty good at it. I definitely do a better job than great clips

I don't care about semantics and legality, I already said what it is actually made of and that isn't proper cheese. It is a processed cheese product.
