They are killing the Super Size option now because of the film Super Size Me. A guy eats nothing but McDonalds for 45 days and has to take the super size option if they offer. He gains 25 pounds, his cholesterol goes through the roof and his liver is damaged. McDonalds is sh*t food. I have not touched it in over 10 years and I never will again.

The fries smell unnaturally bad, like they purposefully add chemicals to make them stank up the room. Nothing makes me want to vomit more than getting on a subway car and smelling McStank. How the hell a small bag of fries can create an overpowering stench in an entire NYC subway car is beyond me.

My only hope is that after the last tobacco company is shut down the heath freaks go after and close down McDonalds.

hahaha another person fooled by McD. They arent doing away with supersizing because of health concerns. They are doing it to raise profits. People are still going to get large drinks and large fries, they'll just be paying $1 more instead of $.39. Congress passed a bill limiting lawsuits against fast food companies. People need to take responsibility for their own action. As for the political activist movie, of course you will have problems, when you eat cheeseburger after cheeseburger, several large fries and wash it down with a large shake. Hell if you made and ate the same food(cheeseburgers, fries, and shakes) at home, youd be suffering the same way.

while not gut wrenching full, it still fills for those of us who haven't trained away that normal full feeling😉
 
alright, bumping this thread because my Steak Egg and Cheese bagel was noticably smaller this morning 🙁
 
(2) $1 Mac Jr's does it for me. A better value than the $2.59 Big Mac.

It's the taste I like more than anything anyway... so is it thousand island or russian dressing? 😀
 
I think they need to subsidize their $.99 offerings somehow. Heck, I can find $.99 cheeseburgers in my area at McD and do realize that they are probably losing money on them (after all expenses, etc.) The fast food industry is just too saturated (no pun intended on the grease part).
