Maybe it's regional, but I cannot possibly fathom why you would think Mcdonalds would be better. There's two mcdonalds in my area, i've visited 3, and all of them have fewer options than they did 4 years ago, and whats still there is definitely worse than it was back then.
Like I certainly gave it a chance, but there were times when I couldn't even finish the nuggets and was starting to feel sick. I went from 10 nuggets to 6 nuggets to just looking for other places to eat.
They greatly improved the quarter pounder while back and they went to much more of a cook to order process. Again not saying they are good just that back in the 80's they were really crappy. Back then other fast food places would make fun of heat lamps with thier competitors and they meant mcdonalds who actually did use them extensively. Back then BK always cooked to order unless they were completely slammed. Overall for the fast food that is pretty much available everywhere I think wendys has kept up quality the best but they have still missed a step or two over the years. I agree with some other sentiments though. At this point I can grab a real burrito or burger at a non frachise place and its not much more but waaayyyyy better.
80s???????
I'm thinking like 4 years ago not 40
yeah yeah and I got that. Its just that they used to be so bad I had to point that out. As bad as they are, they have been waaayyyy worse. And could be again.
Old nuggets make me question all the life decisions I made which led me to get McDonald's chicken nuggets.
Fresh nuggets? Pure crack. I find myself having to talk myself down from buying another 10 piece.
Maybe the employees at your McDonald's are cooking too many early on and giving you old nuggets. But I promise you. If you show up 10 minutes before closing and request a 20 piece and force those poor people to cook you some fresh, they are still amazing.
My experience was the opposite. I hate all fast food burgers so my opinion is based on chicken sandwiches but BK has always been so gross to me. Soggy and flavorless. I had it most recently like 2 years ago and I was kicking myself for going there
The McDonald's chicken sandwich is OK. Not the best but acceptable. However the only thing I order there is breakfast (bacon egg and cheese bagel) which is more expensive than it's worth but still tasty
Snackwraps were one of the best menu items anywhere. Such a shame they're gone
