Burger wars 2042

I confess some ignorance on that issue. It has been many years since I have set foot in a McDs. I do remember that the few times I made the mistake of eating there, each incident being followed shortly thereafter by a bigmac attack, that one of their burgers fell far short of being a meal. Even their double burgers weren't much Checking their website I note that a double cheeseburger, with bun, cheese and toppings is 6.1 oz., and their fries come in skimpy servings too. There was a place where I used to have lunch regularly with co-workers where the lunch cheeseburger special was $4.95. Their single burger was quite a bit larger than McD's double burger. Their fries were a lot better, and probably 4-5 times as large an order. It was a meal. Okay... we had to pay extra for the soft drinks, but I always figured that if I had a fried burger and deep fried potatoes, I was better off without a huge serving of a sweetened beverage.

I was more likely to have the Gyros special. If I went to McDonalds I had a choice of burgers. they have hamburgers, cheeseburgers, double hamburgers, double onion rings, deep fried chicken nuggets. The only non fried alternative was salad. This restaurant had a menu that had things that were actually different from the other choices. If I felt like bacon and eggs for lunch I didn't have to place my order before 11 am.

Those cheeseburger specials were darned good. As for waiting.... we were there once a month and the waitress knew we didn't have much time. She came and took our orders right away and we usually had the food within 5 minutes. Food comes fast at McDonalds,once you get to the front of the line. We probably got our food faster than it takes most people to get to the front of the line.
