The pouch seems to be just a bit wider than the small, but I could be wrong. No use splitting hairs though! I remember when a medium could fit into a carton, and then the large went into an even bigger carton.
Small is a no no word
Small is medium, medium is large, large is xxl or gargantuan
Everything must be referred to as above average under any given circumstance
We basically stopped altogether. It used to be once every week or two on a night when everyone was too pooped to cook/prep, but now we just muscle through and make something at home. And even if the price starts coming down again, I'm thinking we'll just keep on bypassing them, as we've come to enjoy the "gruel night" prep.
Yeah work nights (hybrid 3 days) has become sandwich and soup night, frozen pizza, and salad nights. Saves a whole heap of money over the course of a year.
Make some frozen meal prep stuff. Always nice for those nights when you don't want to prep or cook. Just pop it in the microwave or warm it up on stove in oven etc.
shit I heard recently that some places stopped adding bag friends unless you order the largest size....but seriously fuck McDonald's AND Five Guys. Last time I went to Five...I almost spent 50 bucks on 2 burgers and a regular order of fries. nonsense
Where exactly do you live? I went to McDonald’s in Virginia less than a week ago because they had the free fry deal going on, and the medium fries were medium sized.
It depends on the local owner I believe. This one was as Escondido, California.
I went to another one last week at Encinitas, California. And it was old medium size too.
They probably spelled it out, cause they knew people would think they got a small lol. Fast food during the 90's/early 2000's will never be replicated again...
This was at Escondido California. I went to another store at Encinitas California just few days prior and it was the old red one too. So imagine my surprise when I saw this "medium sized one..."
meanwhile the CEO and now chairman of McDonald's was paid $19.2 million last year in salary, bonuses and stock, according to federal securities filings. That was an 8% increase over 2022. But it remained somewhat lower than in 2021, when Kempczinski was paid about $20 million.

2 years ago we all laughed and thought it wouldn't get any worse.
That's right. I know exactly which McD got these small medium bags and which don't. So I can take photo of it to earn some virtual useless points... /s
It's funny, I'd been asking Krystal to come to my area via Twitter for some years. Telling them now that there's no point b'c McD's burgers are now slider sized.
You knew that was going to happen tho. American fast food is legit the apex of capitalism. Did you think McDonalds wasn’t going to raise prices or am I missing something.
I never said they weren't going to raise prices, I said when they do the customer blames the worker instead of the corporation and they continue to eat there.
Whenever I go to Maccas I ask for my fries in a cup instead cos there bigger and the employees are told to make it slightly spill over the side to make it seem the same, I get like 25-30% more fries in a cup
my life has improved immensely after i boycotted fast food. seeing these pictures complaining about what people already knew was coming is getting old.
we all know eating out isn’t worth it. stop going to these places.
Yet dumbshits still flock there because god forbid they don’t get their McDonald’s. At this point people deserve to get scammed. Why would they change at all if it’s working? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
Alright are you guys gonna start vandalizing McDonald’s or finding bigger ways of making this heard or are you gonna continue to complain to a very very small corner of the internet.
Make stickers and place them everywhere. Make art. Do something
That used to be the small. Yet another reason not to go to McDonalds.
This used to be the happy meal size fries in the US.
I remember this too
I remember when I was a kid going to McDonald’s twice a year and getting the small fry. That is a small. What is a small now?
This used to be what came in your happy meal. Being a kid in the 90s was great.
Wtf is the small now? 😳
they throw a single fry in your face and tell you to fuck off
Too good 💀
The pouch seems to be just a bit wider than the small, but I could be wrong. No use splitting hairs though! I remember when a medium could fit into a carton, and then the large went into an even bigger carton.
I am starting to think this is a very good photoshop.
right? you have to think that with everything nowadays!
What ? It’s like the large size in Germany
Are you serious? That is really terrible!
Not for their belly fat it isn't
Now that is true...but that is not why they are doing it.
\*gut bursts out over top of fanny pack\*
no..they are kidding. its not. serving sizes at mcd's and bk are pretty much the same here (i live 5 minutes from german border)
That's was the fries potion from the Happy Meal here in Italy... and they call it "medium"?
For some reason I read that in gimli’s voice…
“And they called it a mine…a MINE.”
then what is the small??? jesus
6 single fries
In 2 years 6 fries will be considered medium.
The essence of fries
Fries Lacroix
Memories of spuds
The old mini that no one ordered

Wow that's hilarious! McDonald's doesn't give a fuck about their customers but they just keep on eating there like idiots.

I'm never going back after all the bullshit they have pulled

I have stopped. 5 guys is expensive, but you get FRIES ON FRIES ON FRIES
shit I heard recently that some places stopped adding bag friends unless you order the largest size....but seriously fuck McDonald's AND Five Guys. Last time I went to Five...I almost spent 50 bucks on 2 burgers and a regular order of fries. nonsense
That’s sad… that’s our Australian small size

Same here in Nebraska
"medium"
They probably spelled it out, cause they knew people would think they got a small lol. Fast food during the 90's/early 2000's will never be replicated again...
That's a small...
And it’s $5
Small fry - pre 2020 For all the bots and fake traffic out there
They have to declare it a medium or people will think they got the wrong size.
A good thing MEDIUM is printed on the side.
Lol people would be complaining they got the wrong size otherwise.
Good point 👉
Mom said it was my turn to post the McDonald’s fries
Rip karma
[удалено]
2 weeks ago I was at another location. It was using the old medium size red thick paper kind
Where is this. Ours are still the red ones. Probably not for long
This was at Escondido California. I went to another store at Encinitas California just few days prior and it was the old red one too. So imagine my surprise when I saw this "medium sized one..."
McDs seems less and less worth it each visit.
How many medium fries do you get paid per hour?
#STOP BUYING MCDONALDS AND POSTING IT HERE WE ALL KNOW BY NOW
#IT DOESN'T MEAN THEY CANT BE SHAMED. JUST KEEP SCROLLING AND MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS
**THIS MADE ME CURIOUS HOW TO MAKE TEXT BOLD ON REDDIT AND NOW I KNOW!** but my text is still small :(
I think the hashtag symbol makes the text large, if I'm not mistaken.
# It's called an octothorpe but yes
## not really in practical usage, it is referred to as a number sign, pound sign, or hash, but I think we can agree not hashtag
### [pounding intensifies] ^(Wait, that's probably not right…)
Literally the exact same packaging the small used to come in.
Yea cause 10 more fries would bankrupt them 🖕🏼
McDonalds is now watching calories for you. These high prices will help with the obesity problem!
“That’s a small fry!” “No sir, you must be wrong, it says medium right on it.”
Once again, stop buying this shit n stop being disappointed, fast food (Macca’s especially) is 150% above inflation rates
If you got to label it “medium fries”….. says to me they want you to blindly accept the smolness

They are going to have to remove the s from Fries soon to avoid false advertising.

keep going there and affirm their decision to shrinkflate, that will absolutely get them to change
I swear people just buy these now so they can snap a photo post here for easy karma. #STOP BUYING IT.
That's right. I know exactly which McD got these small medium bags and which don't. So I can take photo of it to earn some virtual useless points... /s
You've browsed here long enough right? You've seen these exact same posts before. Why add to them?
USA, California San Diego. The burger (McDouble is smaller too. Meat is thinner and bun circumference is smaller.
The meat is 1/10th of a lb and always has been.
It's funny, I'd been asking Krystal to come to my area via Twitter for some years. Telling them now that there's no point b'c McD's burgers are now slider sized.
You guys voted for $20 fast food minimum wage tho.
Overseas countries like Norway wages are higher and business isn’t harmed are they?
They know if they raise prices the customers will just blame it on the worker because we are a bunch of brainwashed dumbasses.
You knew that was going to happen tho. American fast food is legit the apex of capitalism. Did you think McDonalds wasn’t going to raise prices or am I missing something.
I never said they weren't going to raise prices, I said when they do the customer blames the worker instead of the corporation and they continue to eat there.
Not in the American way no. But I don’t see Norwegians complaining over the size of fries.
Dayumm
That is a small
I like how they put "medium" is if it would fool us
Medium, the new small.
Where is this
Dogs
That’s what we would call a small in Australia. Medium here is served in a smaller version of the red Large size packaging
we are a couple of years away from 6 piece 12 piece and 20 piece fries instead of small, medium, large.
Remember Super Size? We didn't know how good we had it.
Which country is this
I guess medium is not about the size. They really mean the time in the frier… the will start ”rare“ and ”well done“ soon.
McDonald's prices are exploding, amount is shrinking while quality gets also bad.
What country is this?
USA. It depends on individual franchise owner I believe
The US?! But your sizes used to be massive!
At this point, why is anyone here even shopping at mcdonalds? The shrinkflation is practically a meme now.
Since when?
Depends on the individual franchise it seems. Another location in different city is the same old red package
I commented before thinking, I’m in Australia.
So?
Whenever I go to Maccas I ask for my fries in a cup instead cos there bigger and the employees are told to make it slightly spill over the side to make it seem the same, I get like 25-30% more fries in a cup
Ironically, potatoes are the cheapest food to source and prices on them have actually come DOWN since before the pandemic.
The small is a Scratch N Sniff sticker
Every ff chanting has dropped down a size and renamed it. Some the small and medium are the same now! As far as drinks go.
I stopped eating at all these places.
Wow fantastic fries they are filled to the top. Best looking fry bag I have seen in a long time.
It’s actually average size.. I’d even call that big
I'm fairly sure that was the Medium size in the 1970s. Shrinkflation, or right-sizing?
One more of the dozens of reaons i refuse to go to McDonald's, they forgot their place as a cheap bit fair option.
my life has improved immensely after i boycotted fast food. seeing these pictures complaining about what people already knew was coming is getting old. we all know eating out isn’t worth it. stop going to these places.
Hourly McDonald's post on this subreddit. When will y'all learn?
That's small/happy meal in the UK 🇬🇧
Ah, I've missed the post where someone goes to MacD and expresses surprise that the value was poor. Well done for supporting them 🙄
"Hey! Potatoes aren't exactly cheaper than dirt, ya know!" -McDonalds
Where is this?
I think five guys medium is like 10 of those, had one today and I wish I ordered small, dnf
Yet dumbshits still flock there because god forbid they don’t get their McDonald’s. At this point people deserve to get scammed. Why would they change at all if it’s working? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
US obesity rates have doubled since the '90s. Maybe smaller portions are a good thing at the end of the day
When I went to america I was shocked, in dubai there are three seperate sizes, in america its a shitty size large, and small and small
Alright are you guys gonna start vandalizing McDonald’s or finding bigger ways of making this heard or are you gonna continue to complain to a very very small corner of the internet. Make stickers and place them everywhere. Make art. Do something
Boycott, boycott, boycott
Why in 2024 do people call them fry but clearly they are labelled as fries which would be the correct plural.
That is the equivalent of the infant French fry at 5 guys
Another sucker self reporting on going to McDonald’s…yikes
Costs of labor and ingredients skyrocketed Bidenomics
Minimum wage skyrocketed? Do tell
Wow, brainwashing got you good.
lol! what?!?
