    It better get much further than spitting distance from what carryout at a local pub buys me price-wise. Currently it’s essentially the same price whether I go get a hand-formed burger and fries with actual fresh lettuce and tomato from the local pub as it is if I get a meal from McD.

    They were only ever winning on cost and speed, and now they can’t even compete there.

      The speed has especially taken a shit in recent years.

      What happened to the rows of burgers behind them? Now you have to wait like 10-15 minutes for it, while a bunch of delivery guys crowd around.

      And yet I still see queues stretching round their drive through. I don’t understand who is still paying so much for lower quality food.

      Maybe parents whose kids see mcds as their treat?
