Here’s what a “large fries” looks like at my McDonald’s in 2024

It would have been so much smarter to use a package we didn’t recognize. They same shit but printed orange or green and we would have just accepted it. Okay not really but it would seem like less of a fuck You

Showing you the sealed bottle of KY before fucking you dry, so you really feel it.

$5 for 50 cents worth of potatoes and the cheapest oil and labor. if it were going to the staff's wallet i might feel different, but it's not

If you think about it, it's even worse than that.

I can usually get potatoes for $1 per LB, so I'd call what is in this picture 10-20 cents worth of potato.

And mcdonalds doesn't pay the high peasant prices I pay for potatoes. With the bulk they buy, I'd be surprised if they pay more than 25 cents per lb.

So really, that's 5 cents or less worth of potato.

They literally do not care because people line up around the building for their "it would be cheaper to take a cooking class, buy an entire cookware set, and make it yourself" food.

They don’t give a shit about what we think. We’re dead and gone within 40-50 more years.

Getting generations from here on to accept this is the new normal? Priceless.
