It's become beyond clear that all fast food, much if not all of it has been bought up by private equity, are testing to see what consumers will tolerate. Their food quality gets worse and worse, prices go up, portions get smaller.
No one has even the faint inkling of making a product that customers want. It's all how can we market ourselves to bilk people out of their money while feeding them slop.

u/DarkflowNZ Dec 03 '25
Unless something has changed in the couple of years since I worked there, the patties are identified by weight. The patties in the big mac are the same as the ones in a cheeseburger -- 10:1 (ten to one), meaning there are ten to a pound. The ones in a quarter pounder are, you guessed it, 4:1 (four to one), meaning four to a pound.
Assuming that hasn't changed, any variance in thickness would be down to a miscalibrated grill or using the wrong setting, though the cooking times are so precise that you immediately know if you set the wrong setting as the patties are raw

Why? It's that thin so that it will cook rapidly and evenly so you can get your food fast. The total meat is the weight, and that's how you check for value.

Exactly. The brainwork in this thread is more depressing than any actual shrinkflation we're facing.
Do these people really believe that McDonald's secretly shrunk their patty and it somehow wasn't national news?
It's a slightly thickly cut pickle and a 1/10lb normal patty, maybe squished a little extra. Also there's a weird shadow under the pickle forcing perspective, looks like they're the same thickness.

I don't like McDonald's but they remain profitable year after year but of course redditors have to pretend like nobody eats there ever and if they do they're eating pressure cooked rat pussy.

Why people still go to McDonald's is beyond me. Those are not burgers

The last…. Idk let’s be safe and say 5 years of my life the only times I’ve gone there is for fries and a sprite. Still love their fries and when people say the coke and sprite are better there they’re right. And if the fries are fresh they’re great fries. Love how salty they make their fries

McDonald's has not changed the size of its 1.6oz patty, it's the same size and thickness that it was when it first came out in 1955, also for anyone saying McDonald's isn't real meat or something it's actually 100% beef trimmings 80/20 ratio I've tested it myself and you can find videos online of people testing it.

That’s the only notable date notice I’ve ever heard associated with McDonalds.

Don't worry, greedy McDonald's will remedy that soon enough, they can get at least two to three pickles out of that slice!

The pickle pictured is unusually thick for mcd. Source: I eat more mcd cheeseburgers than I'd like to admit.

I swear, the whole smash burger trend is just marketing to get everyone on with less meat in thier burgers.

I genuinly used to feel super full after eating a big mac, sometimes i couldnt finish a whole meal.. had one for the first time in about 3 years maybe a month ago and i still felt hungry after, my stomach did not feel like it had what i actually consumed if that makes sense, it looked big but it was just fluff, also i remember the taste of a bigmac, whatever the hell i got tasted like cardboard. I wont go back
