I recently ordered a medium soda for my dad at a McDonald's and I was full of regret. It must have been like 32 oz. It was huge. Probably enough calories in the soda alone to be a meal.
The drink in my post is smaller than the smallest drink there.
Yes, I'm aware that I'm comparing McDonald's to Burger King, but small/medium/large should be similar capacities between restaurant chains and not deceptive between the different sizes.
Yeah that's a medium in Germany. What you call small is our large, and XL has been banned to curb sugar addiction. Drinks come in 0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 liters. (6.75, 10.1, 16.9 oz). XL used to be 1 liter (20 oz), and that was deemed too much.
mcdonalds is advertising something like this to which is basically copying wendys thing they have been doing for awhile. meanwhile taco bell is advertising how great the garbage in their $7 box is. who knew it only took a few bucks to kick my fast food bad habit.
There's nothing wrong with Taco Bell's bean burritos and they're only about two bucks. Of course, most of what they sell is garbage. I miss their black bean burritos. Those were actually good.
I haven't been to a Taco Bell in like 20 years, after they put already opened packets of hot sauce in my drive through bag. But that's a different story for a different day under a different community..
I would grab stuff way to often but its basically twice what it used to be and went from something I could do without tracking to something I need to budget for (partially also because necessities are more expensive puting the squeeze on it in two ways) and whelp. it aint worth budgeting for. we have actually been taking what we used to spend and buying a bit higher quality grocery items. It sucks losing the convenience but eating better is nice.
Before tax of course. Never seen a price with tax included before. Way too many different state/county/city tax differences for that to work well, at least in the US.
I hate to be that guy, but you’d really just be better off waiting, aka fasting, until get a chance to eat some real food. But never mind you only live once.
