McDonald’s forgot its place that food isn’t supposed to cost that much
The only franchise with x+y managers and employees walk🚶 around clueless
It's Bidenomics.. close country over Xovid which CDC says is now just like the flu. Print money like inflation doesn't occur then watch the economy crash
. DUMBOCRATS
Wouldn’t be if they didn’t have to pay their employees so much. But the day is coming when McDonald’s won’t need to be “manned” by anyone. Kiosks, automated processes, before long these millions of employees will be out on their ass. And the media will convince you it’s because of corporate greed.😂
@@doejohn6865 Even with kiosks and automated processes, each McDonald's will still need to be manned. Kiosks go down, automated processes malfunction and overall a staff will be needed in order to do maintenance and respond to immediate problems.
Everything on the "$1 menu" being $3 is a spit in the face.
Inflation??? Bull crap. Greed.
Ceo of McDonald’s made 14.2 million last year.
Part of it is inflation. If you do not understand how higher gas prices and prices across the board work I don't know what to tell you...
@@thomasjgour4678 a huge part was greed. If inflation was so bad for mcdonalds, how did they still grow profits over 10% last year at over $8 billion? All these companies made record profits last year, inflation wasnt hurting them as bad as they like to say.
@@thomasjgour4678stop making excuses for greedy business people. Govt can print money to pay people and not have them struggle but no they putting this illusion that struggle is necessary which is pure utter bullshit.
Wait? You don't believe that we are experiencing inflation?
Wendy’s already beat them to it. It’s called the $5 biggie bag
I had on a while. burger sat around. wasnt good. Incidentally, I love wendy's.
The $5 biggie bag use to be the Four for $4.
Except in California they are $7-8 Biggie Bags! Thanks Newsom.
@@smittyscoins5009 California sucks so much.
@@freema9246 I agree I worked at Mickey D’s when I was 16 and built skills in the workplace.. Newsom still signed this bill into law.
All those corporations never lose money they just greedy af
exactly, they grew PROFITS last year 10% at over $8 BILLION. How is that possible if they are saying inflation makes them raise prices? Its not that they are losing money, they just arent growing EARNINGS for their shareholders. Mcdonalds and companies like them dont give a damn about customers, employees, or the communities they serve, its ALL about the shareholders.
And the customer service at Mickey D's is Crap. 😳
@@dougfredricks2017 its crap because they are short staffed and know they are all being phased out. Look at in and out where there are lots of well paid, respected, and happy employees
Greedy AF!!!!
Fast food restaurants are just as expensive as a regular diner. May as well go in and sit down and have a nice dinner, then spend the money on fast food.
It's actually cheaper to go to a sit-down restaurant where we live.
Except I HATE sit-down restaurants with crappy waiters & tipping. I will not tip. It's the employer's *JOB* to pay their employees, NOT MINE!
@@sci-fi.tsunamiAnd yet, you spend money there, which, in turn, makes them profitable, which pays the employees. Your anger is dumb and misplaced.
💯Price gouging in America is out of control. Greedy corporations can GO TO HELL!
@Millers-Mausoleum so you're a Republican. How is Biden responsible? I would really like to know some details. Congress passes laws. The President either signs or vetoes them.
small fry, small coke, three nuggets, one sauce, five dollars.
or a small fry, single burger, drink five dollars
McChicken or mcdouble. Includes small fry 4 nuggets and a drink
@@JD-cg8it Maybe, I think they use shrink-flation here to make it a bad deal.
@@TravisDoesKayakFishing it's not maybe lol McDonald's announced it. Besides McDonald's has been garbage for at least 10 years
Two strips of fries,
Cup of water and a hamburger
Wendy’s beat them to that…
Yea with their $5 biggie bag 10 yrs ago
...And taco bell
Prices have more than doubled, portions shrank.
You can go to a higher tier restaurant for the price at mcd.
But you have to wait too long for your food & also have to tip. I refuse to tip. It's the employer's *JOB* to pay their employees, NOT MINE!
@sci-fi.tsunami stay home, cook your own food.
@@sci-fi.tsunami Not true there are plenty of take out options from small businesses where you simply order at the counter.
@@noneyabizz8337 I have been and my burger rock.lol.
@@sci-fi.tsunami you're not obligated to tip. And you know that, so why are you typing incorrect crap. You must be from Kentucky.
Rising prices and lower quality.
Capitalism
I dont eat fast food and i cant wait until the rest of the country stops too .
Something in the food has most people addicted.
@@sci-fi.tsunamisugar. and other chemicals that are toxins to the body
Fast food is a complete rip off. Tiny portions, so you don't get full, and you're destroying your health eating chemicals and it's expensive. You're essentially wasting your money and poisoning yourself, not even getting full, why bother.
They definitely doing it to sugary food, idk why or what's going
I love girls that eat fast food it makes them sexy and they burp loud from it
High prices for fake food
it's not fake, it has a lot of preservatives
@@BlackTarH ...it's fake....the fries never go bad...ever......they never decompose
Americans don't know the definition of "fake" and it shows. How embarrassing.
@@BlackTarH this guy lol lol bro must be Joe Biden kid
how about they stop giving their CEOs million dollar bonuses.
their
so you think if they pay a CEO 125 thousand a year things will get better? Wow, education in america has failed.
derp....
That’s the problem too.
@netcwntric yeah he made 14.2 million last year. Even if he made half that he’d still be in the top one percent. Lee Iacocca, bermoser and Estes were only making between $250,000-$300,000 in 1981 CEOS of the big 3 autos. The average UAW pay was $40,000.
Today Ceo of Macdonald makes 14.2 million. Average annual pay at McDonald’s 30,000.
CEOs salaries are the ones that have gone up astronomically. Not your average worker.
@@Netcentric-fk6ek How are you going to pay a CEO $14 million than complain about employees making living wages? Apparently common sense in america doesnt exist anymore
Madonalds should call it "Poor but Happy Meal".
Unhappy Meal.
A small fries is over $3.
half bag potatos
I remember back in the mid 90's, Burger King had a coupon for 5 Whoppers for 5 bucks. That was a good deal!
They still do kinda. they’re $7.49 if you have the app.
Before the pandemic they used to periodically run 2 for $10.
@alwillk
That isn't even close to the same, dumbass. And people don't wanna use an app. Idiot!
i remember when that meal was a dollar
Damn, when? 1920?
Not the meal... But individual items on the $1 dollar menu ..not $1,$2,$3 menu
@@zakimahmoud7748 ohhhhhh yeah okay, I remember those days too 🤣🤣🤣
A McDonalds cheeseburger used to be 35 cents. A double cheeseburger used to be 70 cents. This was a long time ago. I wish I took a picture.
@@vshah1010 You can find those pictures easily on the internet.
$ 5 for a Bun and lettuce
No lettuce is extra you just get a bun.
STOP EATING JUNKFOOD ITS A SIGNED
Thank you! This is our chance to hurt these companies for draining us dry I get so upset whenever I see families lined up at the drive thru. Wtf is the rush?? Death?? Colon Cancer??
@@moonknightj5797 I think they're just hungry moon knight.
It's an American Icon
Mc donalds is what American food is all about 😂
@@moonknightj5797 healthy food is much more expensive so fk that
Just give us back the $1 menu
imagen a dollar nugget?
Finally an affordable laxative
Five dollars for a small "meal" is still too high to lure back customers.
Everything is going up except for the pay at work
24 of the last 30 years living under trickle down economics. What do you expect?
Your pay will go up when the value you bring to the company goes up lol . Stagnant wages for stagnant skills.
@@sneksteppyOk boomer
Not going to work. I can spend the same amount at a NICE RESTURANT vs this crap
Haha, what? 15$ is a meal at a nice restaurant to you? Yikes!
@@mysidianrabite7826you missed the point he was trying to make 😑
Listen here Karen. A meal at my mcdonalds for 3 people is 40 dollars or more wtf you smoking @@mysidianrabite7826
You are the biggest Karen I ever seen. You are posting on everyone's comments defending McDonalds. WHY@@mysidianrabite7826
so I am not aloud to say the first comment is a 100% karen and posting all over this video karen comments
Wendy's Biggie Bag you can get a Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger, fries, 4nuggets, and a drink, oh and if you have the frosty Keychain, you get a free frosty!
That use to be the 4 for $4 menu before it's was discontinued on Jan 1st.
@@shanechannel7066 True but with inflation, The Biggie Bag for $5 is still a better value than majority of these fast food chains.
Damn this news segment was sponsored by McDonalds.
seems like reporters care but they fanncy resturant
Double quarter pounder with cheese , large fry, large coke? I will consider
$48 to feed two people at Taco Bell. We just gave up on fast food altogether. We can go for a sit-down dining experience, with much better quality food, for less that fast food. Local Chinese food was $32 for the same two people. Do the math.
Haha, what? What planet are you buying Taco Bell on for 2 people that cost $48??
I ordered a dozen taco box for my family and it was only $20. And Las Vegas is expensive.
what the heck did you guys eat??
Good cook at home
@@nfmosphotos4624 10 tacos. 4 burrito supreme. 2 drinks. Total order.
Thats just like having 1.00 mcdoubles back.
450 percent price rise. I am over 60 years old and never seen anything like it.
$5 meal, tiny mac, tiny fries and half a small soda.
Look at UA-cam video of McDonald’s food being prepared, looks like some manufacturing station, shame on them overcharging for that crap. If you’re gonna spend that kinda money buy some real food.
Increased costs are always passed along to the customer. This isn’t rocket science.
The paper products cost $5. How does this work exactly?
I use to hang out with friends in the 90s and get 29 cent cheese burgers. Even your dates that you brought to McDonald’s loved it back then.
Greedflation Burgers
Inflation never seems to Hurt the
Bottomline of Profits of Any CEO. 🤣🤣
??? Well, of course it doesn't, that is literally why the business exists lol. I literally can't believe that there are adults who exist in this world who don't even understand the purpose of a business. It' like you think they exist just cuz lol. How does it fee knowing you stopped mentally developing at the age of 9?
What's funny about McDonald's wanting a five-dollar meal first they've got to get rid of the fake food and put real food in the deal. I'm still laughing.
It boggles my mind people are more worried about price than eating the chemicals that are in it
So basically they are copying Wendy's $5 Biggie Bag.
Absolutely no average citizen cares if a company loses money because of high prices
In 10 years a young American student will raise her hand and ask her teacher what was a McDonald’s?
It’s called a happy meal. 7.99 in Hawaii
They just offered the happy meal. But, now it's not just for kids. It's for everybody. But, you don't get a toy with this meal.
Keep it simple and bring back the $1 menu, problem solved
$5 for basically a kids meal without the toy isn’t a bargain
The fast food industry is out of control.
THIS IS STILL NOT $1 each. STUPID!!!! MCDONALDS BRING BACK THE DOLLAR MENU!!!!!!!!!!
A restaurant in my southern Ontario hometown is now charging $16 for a burger. Now that is greed.
Buy 2 and get 1 free is probably the way to go from a probability standpoint
Will this be in calf. With 20$ a hour minimum wage. ?
McDonald's should just bring back a real $1 menu. Mcdouble, McChicken, 6 piece nugget, small fry or small drink
They should go back to 39 cent cheese burger Sundays and a large fry for a dollar.
never gonna happen
All the burger chains are ripping people off. Two of us went to an A & W. Two burgers, two fries and two drinks set me back over $45. Never again.
Fast food prices will never come back down. McDonalds has raised their shareholder dividends 49 years in a row. They aren't going to stop now.
The fries are the most ridiculous price. Almost $5 for large fries. That's a $5 potato. Yes it's cut and fried, but still, it's a potato.
And they’re thinner. Corner store fries are thicker than McD fries. I could get a small order for the same price and it would literally fill up a large fry holder. Plus they skimp on sauces at times. 😂😂😂😂
And straight to the comments to see how many people need to tell us they don’t eat McDonald’s. What’s the over/under?
The entire fast food industry is in trouble if they keep the high prices. Most of us that grew up with the cheaper fast food will just stop going all together. I would rather go to a sit down restaurant than spend $50 at McDonalds.
😂 even at $5 still not worth it! The dollar menu would have cost $3!!
Remember this, these fast food places need us more than we need them. Stop going
Those same items on this menu used to cost 1 dollar. I'm traveling to California for 5 months for work. None of us will be eating out with fast food. Cook your own stuff and save your money and live healthier.
For those people who wanted McDonald's employees to get paid a lot more a few years ago? Great for the employees, but this is the negative part of that...
i used to remember when on Wednesday was 59 cent hamburgers and Sunday was 29 cent hamburgers when i was a kid and $5 on those days would feed a family of 4
If fast food is getting expensive, then you know there’s a problem 😑
Hell look at there new building looks like a doctor's office.
Pre pandemic a $5 value meal would have caused outrage
I refuse to buy in, screw you McDonald's.
That's the price every one of those "meals" should be.
Support small business. Avoid superstores.
Correction “ the price of a double quarter has doubled in the last four years”
Here in Pakistan 🇵🇰 you can get a double big Mac (4 beef patties), drink and fries for $5.
Mc Donald’s please charge $50 for a Big Mac meal. Americans will waddle in to get it still.
Here's some history to make you cry. When I attended college in the early 1970's in Toronto, a burger at Harvey's was 69 cents. I could get a BLT, fries and a large Coke for 95 cents. And a full prime rib dinner at the Royal York's Imperial Room in Toronto was $8. Included prime rib, potato, salad, vegetable and dessert. Think it's b.s.? Nope. I have a menu. Yes, I know all about inflation but today's restaurant prices are greed personified.
So they're taking 3 items they used to sell for $1 each and selling them for $5. STILL A RIP OFF. I'll continue ordering from REAL restaurants and pay YOUR prices.
Their 2 for $4 McDouble deal is pretty good. Also, they have good offers in their app like fries for 1.30, Big Mac meal for $6 or something like that.
Lol. McDonald's is all about real estate and scam franchiseesmantain that real estate and not food ! ;)
Its called greed
Ceo of McDonald’s made 14.2 million last year.
It’s called greed!!!! We live in a greedy country where they don’t care about how poor you are! The great American greed!
They need to bring the $1 Menu back. That's the only way.
They need to bring back all-day breakfast first.
McDonalds: started off nice, ended in the dumpster.
Still not bringing me in it’s the fact that basic burgers and fries and a drink cost near $10 and to feed more than yourself it’s ridiculous! Go back to pre 2020 prices if you want folks back in your restaurant otherwise you’re just wasting time and money.
Bidenomics thank yourselves.
Nobody noticed the first guy was Sonny from Days of our lives!! 😂
Watch they end up announcing 5 chicken nuggets for $5 🤦🏾♂️
For $5 you should get 72 Mcnuggets!
The famous French fries are made of potatoes sprayed with a chemical that requires farmers to remain quarantined for five days.
My daughter’s last hamburger tasted like it had been marinated in Lysol.

Shuddup
@@hittin3s go eat some
@@JTSunriseMusicI will and I’ll enjoy it
None of that “food” is worth 5 dollars. Maybe if the board cuts there 2 million a year down to 1.5 million they can afford to lower prices.
Just ordered two Mc doubles one small Coke one small fry it’s $9.75
Why would you willingly do that. You just told mcdonalds that’s it’s okay that they’re screwing you that hard. You have no right complaining
Hey genius just get the $3 meal and add a McDouble
Seems fairly reasonable.
So you are either the biggest KAREN I EVER SEEN or you work for mcdonalds you are all over peoples comments defending mcdonalds @@mysidianrabite7826
@@kushking949 You can't afford $9.75?
How embarrassing!!
You shouldn't quit eating fast "food" just because it's expensive, you should also quit eating it because it's insanely terrible for your body.
Noooooooo McDonald’s has been greedy and people are starting to realize they have been taken advantage of. Franchise owners are a major part of the problem.
if you get a 5 dollar meal, gunna be tiny as can all be lol.
I stopped eating McDonald’s for years
Get that fake burger out of here
Only in America would this be a breaking news story… 🙄
If you read the print on the value menu, it says “ may be harmful for dogs or cats”
I have stayed away from Mickey D since the pandemic. They have pushed the envelope for prices way too far.
Bring back the dollar menu how the CEO that does not need to make $19.2 million a year take a pay cut and stop being greedy
This is what happens when you price yourself out the market you catered too. Companies kept blaming rising prices on Covid supply/demand, 4 years out & now that everything is stabilized, its no longer a valid excuse for rising cost. Simply, its Greed.
Just quit McDonald's and eat at Chipotle. Cost almost the same and healthier.
Oh i thought they had to raise prices because of wages and cost increases of packaging? This is what happens when you ignore the customer. Know your place...
Yeah I bet the meal is kids sized for 5 bucks you get 1 cheese burger small fries and small drink enjoy
Tiny soda, tiny fries, and tiny cheese burger? 😂
...and TINY Onions!
......Swimmin' in a sea of Cream Sauce!
Its not just the price but food quality. Its always cold and not made to order.
I had seen videos of where a McDonald's burger actually remains intact when liquid metal was poured onto it...or a cheeseburger actually look the same after it was left alone for a year, no mold or color change... I stopped going to McDonald's
