I was born in '94 and I've never had a Big Mac. Seems like too much food.

>>8502588
>big mac
No thanks. For me it's the McChicken

I don't want a burger with questionable sauces on it, just give me one with lettuce, tomato and cheese

>>8502588

I'm 32 and I have eaten exactly 1 Big Mac in my entire life.

>>8502588
I never had one because the only time I ever went to McDonald's was with friends in highschool and we always just got the $1 McDoubles and McChickens. I'm fairly sure that most "millenials" know it's trash food and steer clear

Why have big mac when i can have McRamen

I'm almost 40 and I've only had one.

I like some of their other offerings, but actual burgers are completely inferior to other options

It's too expensive for what you get. I can get a bunch of stuff much cheaper than just getting the big mac

You don't see many McDonald's threads on /ck/ do you, anon?

I've never had a big mac. I get mcnuggets and fries with the little bag of apple slices and a chocolate milk.

Look on my works ye mighty and despair

>>8502598
It's actually not that much food

>>8502594
I don't think you need to do the parentheses when it's already called Bloomberg.

Are you admitting that you buy kids meals?

>>8502816
Sure, I buy my two kids meals all the time.

>>8502816
Yeah. I'm a petite person so it's a good portion for me.

>>8502843
I keep them if they're cool. I got an emoji plush toy and my dog likes to play fetch with it.

I miss when kids meals came in a cute colorful box, now they're in a brown paper bag. :(

>>8502588
My kneejerk reaction was that that's bullshit but then I remembered I'm thirty, have actually worked at McDonald's for two years and I've never had a Big Mac. McDonald's burgers are fucking awful so I never saw a reason to subject myself to anything that wasn't breakfast or came out of the fryer.

>>8502598

it's not even food

I'm 40, not a huge fast food eater and really cheap but I've eaten lots of big macs. Rarely if ever full price though. Bogo, coupon or special event almost exclusively

>>8502598
>>8502588

Big Mac combo: $12

Local burger joint with 3 times as many fries, a significantly better burger, and drink with unlimited refills: $10.10

Why would I ever go to McDonald's?

>>8502588
I'm 28

I've eaten a lot of bigmacs, megamacs
But I haven't eaten any mcd products for over a year now.
I don't know if this happens to anyone, but after a certain age processed foods stop having a taste.
You only feel like you are eating something very greasy and oily, that's about it.
I never had a sweet tooth, but today I tried to eat 2 pieces of Toblerone. I couldn't even swallow one.
My aunt used to say that chips, fast food etc. were all garbage when I was 15. I used to hate her saying that, but I guess you become what you hate haha.

>>8502995
>You only feel like you are eating something very greasy and oily, that's about it.

32 here, i know exactly what you mean. i stopped eating fast food for the most part, but every once in a while i have a hankering for it and am always disappointed. i think i'm done with it.

>>8502588
It's a tiny ass burger for nearly $5.
At this point I'd rather eat at a local burger joint, the burger will be bigger and it will taste like something other than mayonnaise.

Maybe 10 years ago, big macs were $1.50 and they would even give you a free big mac coupon every time they kept you waiting more than 90 seconds at a drive thru.
The big mac coupon was guaranteed because they never got their shit together, eventually gutting their 90 second promotion.

>>8502990
>3 times as many fries
>unlimited refills
These are not good things, burgerclap.

>>8502588
Good, I hope they die as fast as possible. Thier burgers are completly awful, thier fries are soggy and they are overpriced as fuck. We have a butcher in our village, he will give you large fries and two burgers for half the price and these burgers also taste godly. Even our bakery makes better burgers, and they don't even sell meat. Also, keep in mind that McDonalds, a huge ass multinational company struggles in Germany because they simply cannot compete against a bunch of turks which dropped out of the Hauptschule

Big Macs are overpriced boomer trash. The millinials have chosen the McChicken.

Its overpriced what can I say? Value sandwiches are like $1 to $1.40

Big mac is sitting way the fuck up there at what... $4 or $5?

Anything that isnt $1 is like $4 fucking bucks... whats the reason for such a huge jump anyway?

I see myself getting like 2 times the quality as the basic sandwich so I expect to pay 2 times the price.

McDonalds your price point for Big Macs and just about ANY OTHER SANDWICH on the menu is $2.50

If you can afford to churn out basic burgers for $1.00 to $1.40 (since thats what everybody is buying when they go there) then you can pay price-for-weight difference on the Big Macs, Quarter Pounders, Club Sandwiches, and everything else on the regular menu.

Besides you're making your money on the Soda and Fries anyhow (2 bucks for fries is steep, I can get a whole bag of fries at the store for 1.25).

Soda is verifiably the main way fast food and movie theaters stay in business anyway. Soda costs 5-15 cents in materials, charged 1.30 for.

(contd)

Basically...

Having $1 and sub-1 buck plain Hamburgers and Cheeseburgers on the menu since forever...

Ties up McDonalds with having to EXTEND that to their other sandwiches as well.

If for some reason their basic sandwiches never were that cheap then it would be more reasonable to expect Big Macs, Filet Of Fish and others to be the price they are.

But if they can MAKE the basic ones that cheap I expect their other sandwiches to be in the same ballpark too.

Price Per Weight

Otherwise why bother getting a Big Mac when I can buy 4 Cheeseburgers for the same price?

How much more food is that, and by my palate it doesnt taste bad (the pickle makes such a big difference)

So Ounces of food plays a bigger role than the marginal +quality that the upper tier sandwiches represent.

The trend isnt going to change until they drastically lower their prices on their signature sandwiches.

As I explained, the standard models of quality-for-price do not apply to McDonalds

> Because McDonalds is known for cheap food to tank up on quickly. You're typecast into that corner and always will be.

> Remaking your image wont help, your image is set in stone from the retro years.

> If you dropped your signature sandwiches or had them as seasonals, and upgraded the quality on your Basic sandwiches and lowered the price on the Fries just like it was 1965 you'd get MORE BUSINESS.

And you cant feign quality, people will check your food and post critiques, put your food through lab tests and so on.

You can make your burger patties thinner like Steak & Shake does and get away with that. Most of the sandwich is already bread to begin with so people wont notice, if it tastes better.

Also pic related I know they have an agreement with Coke for their soft drinks but lacking Mello Yellow is a MAJOR problem.

>tfw you can get 2 mcdoubles and a mchicken for less then a big mac AND ask for the sauce


What purpose is there to get a Big Mac?

>>8503373

I just get 4 Cheeseburgers
And a soda

And I sit there all day using the Wifi and getting free refills (usually 1 gallon worth of soda - four or five 32oz equivalent)

Though usually its 2 cheeseburgers at a time.

Why does the bigmac cost so much?

yknow if they went back to the way they was before (retro years), now that their hegemony is gone, they just might stay in business and be worth going to

speak to older folks and they'll say the burgers tasted different, and they literally only had a few menu items and you knew exactly what you was there for

I just find that completely unbelievable. I'm a millennial. Are you somehow saying kids born in 1988 never ate a fucking big mac? That's just unbelievable.

>>8503079
>less food for more money is better!

>>8502588
I am apparently of that 20%. I have probably had less then 10 in my entire life, they're just not that great and I unironically like the McChicken more then the Big Mac.

>>8504569
It could be that picky eater thing.
My sister is 25 now, and since we were kids she would only eat mcnuggets if we ever had mcdonalds. To this day, I don't think she's ever had a fast-food item that wasn't chicken or fries in some form.

>>8504593
Nigga you tellin mcdolan's is better quality than ANY dedicated burger place?

Better quality and more food for less money or less lower quality food for more money?
One of these answers is wrong, and it's the one you chose.

>>8504625
t. McDonald's employee.

>>8504631
Why, because you're desperately trying to discredit an argument you have no defense against?

The answer is no, try something else.

>>8502588
What percent of McDonalds sales are Big Macs? Probably pretty small. The McDouble is the thing we should really be judging McDonalds on

I hate how wide the net over "millenials" is. I'm 30, but I have little to nothing in common with a kid in high school still that has grown up since Facebook existed.

I didn't even have the internet growing up.

Big Macs suck, Whoppers are much better

>>8502588
24 years old, I have never eaten any burger from McD

I've had half a big Mac three times during childhood. Gave me the runs each time so I've never had them again.

>>8504795
>Gave me the runs each time so I've never had them again.

Hmm I have the same problem.

>>8504752

I unironically prefer the mcchicken

>>8504953
>I prefer one thing to something else that I've never tried

I was born in '94 and I've never had a Big Mac. They just look kinda gross. Whenever I'm at McDicks I get a McDouble or a McChicken plus some fries.

>>8504569
I was born in 1995 and never had one. I thought McDonalds burgers tasted gross as a kid (and probably still do) so I just stuck to McNuggets.

>>8502588
>only 20% of people born between 1985 and 1999 have eaten a big mac
I call bullshit.

>>8505573
You managed to read the exact opposite of what I typed, you cross-eyed shrub fucker.

Reading back, I notice I accidentally the word me in a post, but that by no means changes the tone of it to what you got out of it.

because mcdonalds is fucking disgusting and only subhumans eat there

>>8504569
This, but with Quarter Pounders or more seasonal or localized burgers.
The OP is flawed because it doesn't consider these other options.

>>8502990
Your angle is a bit skewed but I applaud you anyway for supporting local business over micky d.

I tried it last year because I wasn't sure I'd tried it before.

McDouble is better.

Do you think the MacJr will save this?
Seems like the perfect middle ground

>>8504752
>tfw the oldest millenials are nearly 40

>>8506823
I didn't say that you butthead, but the one of the defining parameters for a millennials, and the one I always go with because I like the nice clean 0s at the end, is anyone born in the 20 years from 1980 to 2000.

I've never had one because why the fuck would I want three buns
I don't want to eat a shitload of bread I want a burger

i'm a millenial and my mom used to take me to mcdonalds all the time

they didn't realize how bad of an idea that was until i was 10 yrs old and super fat

i am not very fat now but damn mcdoubles fill me with so much nostalgia. i was imprinted by the mcdonalds mark in my brain. i love big macs too (and mc nugs)

>>8506839
This, just doesn't make sense.

it's over 560 calories. I hope you're not eating anything with it.

It's literally half that here in Maryland, and we have higher-than-average fast food prices. Where the hell do you live? Canada?

In 2013 my local McDonald's had a promotion on Black Friday, where the first 25 people to order a Big Mac got a punch card for 26 free Big Macs, one every other week.

Not him but I lived in Berlin for six months two years ago and I have never had a burger as good as I has at a place called The Bird. Fuck I miss that place, went like five times.

>>8507017
Didn't read either did you?

What's with the influx of retards lately? It's worse than usual.

>>8507667
Nobody agrees that mcdonalds is shitty and overpriced while giving you less food than a real burger place does for less money?

Big Mac is just classic and thats why people still get it. You can probably even get a better burger at the same restaurant for that price, not mention elsewhere.

>>8507724
73 and a half kg, give or take. Haven't checked in a month.

Deliberately eating more for winter fat, and have had more lifting time recently, so likely more than that now.

Why? Desperately trying to tell yourself mcdonald's is your best food option instead of objectively better places that give you more food?

>shitty, expensive food is better than cheaper, better food

they must be trolling right now

Millennials continue to prove they're the smartest generation yet.

>Only 20% of millennials have ever eaten a Big Mac
Ok
What percentage of them have eaten at McDonalds though? Because, just so you know, Big Mac is only one item on a pretty large menu.

This poll means nothing.

>>8505233

Well I certainly haven't. The McDouble has the most meat/$. That's the only thing that matters in the burgers.

I ONLY eat mcfish

why would anyone who isn't poor eat a big mac or even go to mcdonalds? there are so many delicious alternative these days.

I had a mcrib a few years ago while drunk and before that I can't even remember when I last went there. probably a poorfag friend's birthday party when I was 9 years old.

But the big mac is the only thing worth getting at mcdonalds.

>>8508309
Bullshit

They obviously could add everything up and come to the conclusion, that something like 80% of millenials have been at McDonalds and got a coffee or fries or something like this - and that will be in the report as well, but that poll is much more worthless - it suggests that everything is all right and nothing needs to change, because at some time everyone was at McDonalds.

Of course it is an important poll, because it just speaks to their flagship sandwich not being as successful as it needs to be, be it because of quality or price.

McDonald's prices have increased substantially since I can remember going here. I live in Quebec and it is even more expensive, I think they had a recent price increase.

I think a McChicken sandwich, although the best sandwich for me, is like $5-6. It's ridiculous.

True. Although my point was that even in the country with the most expensive big mac in the world, you still pay less than $12.

And to live in mom's basement because you spend all your money paying 3 times as much for all natural fast food. Five Guys so fuckin' healthy, 870 calorie all-natural shake, 840 cal cheeseburger, and 1314 cal large fries cooked in healthy peanut oil. Show us the way, guide us to the light o wise and enviable millennials!

>>8509067
Are you kidding me? No you're not.
Parents don't teach their children how to fucking cook anymore. I'm pushing 30, I know one other guy that knows how to cook and both of us were raised by single mothers. Every other roommate I've had would eat fast food for at least one meal a day, 7 days a week. None of them knew how to clean anything. One of them couldn't do his own fucking laundry, he had to take it in to a laundromat and pay for the wash and fold service.

>>8502588
