What are your thoughts on McDonalds phasing out apple pies and Big Macs /ck/?

>> No.6083225

Big Mac? The number one best selling item on their menu?

Apple pies though, nobody ever remembers they even have those.

This. Macdonalds is simplifying their menu by offering one quarter pounder instead of three or four for example. They have seen decreasing profits and think a simpler menu will help. But they aren't getting rid of the big mac which is one of their top-sellers.

I used to work nights, 5 pm to 5 am. usually took my food but once a week got two mcdoubles, two pies and a small fry for< 5 bucks.good deal around here to get a franchice you better have 3 million and a good location. they support many many community groups and the starting pay is a few bucks above minimum wage. why the hate?
