It's called "shrinkflation", where you pay the same price or more for a smaller portion. Same thing happens with a lot of other products too.
speaking of McDonald's...
McDonald's shares details about menu, locations for spin-off restaurant CosMc's
McDonald's gave a sneak peek at the menu for their new CosMc's spin-off restaurant, which is expected to open its first location soon!abc7.com
You tell 'em Aus. You set 'em straight, see.
I love McDonalds coffee... I really do not care for anything else. I even buy their coffee for the house from the grocery store.
my problem w/ restaurant coffee, is...Ew. McDonalds coffee tastes like watered-down Keurig, which is already bad.

they never clean the pots or the brewing parts throughout the day, & you can taste it. After a few pots, the residue on the bottom of the pot gets burned, then you get burnt coffee taste the rest of the day. If they don't clean out the filter can, then it starts tasting nasty...
Once coffee starts tasting like that, there's not enough additives/sweetener that can fix it.
Sure, you get sweetened burnt coffee that tastes like putrid waste... butt it's still nasty, even if you add a pound of sugar...
I live in a small town and our McD's is owned by a local family...they clean there pots and machine, I've never gotten burnt coffee from them. I buy the premium medium roast and I have a commercial bunn coffee maker (got it off amazon for $350) here at the house. The coffee tastes amazing, I like it... cleaning your coffee maker and pot regularly helps, I use bunn tabs. I also have a Keurig and like Death Wish Coffee, the dark roast, but those are expensive and I use them sparingly.Ew. McDonalds coffee tastes like watered-down Keurig, which is already bad.
"McDogfood's".When I was about 7 my dad would take me for a cheeseburger, fries and a "big orange soda" at this place called Griffs back in the '60's. He'd pay about two 25 cent pieces for both our meals and maybe get a couple of pennies change. The food was about the same size and quality as McDogfoods (what my teens call McDonalds). The 25 cent pieces were made of 90% silver back then. Fast forward to today, if you have a couple of those silver quarters from the 1960s laying around you can sell them for their silver content and get enough paper money to buy the same two meals today at McDogfoods.
Looks yummy! We do cook about twice a week, but it's cheaper to go out and eat... I can go to a steak house, Mexican, Chinese, Japanese, food truck or local mom & pop and eat cheaper than I can cook the same meal at home. Groceries are stupid high... $50.00 doesn't get you anything anymore! I remember when I was a kid and my mother could fill a grocery cart for that.

I'm not really sure right now. What do you mean by a "pow wow"?Is this an invitation to a pow wow?
