    This isn’t just McDonalds. I walked into KFC the other day and it’s got so darn expensive there, too. Nowadays we don’t bother eating out unless we’re on the road or something. Just ain’t worth it.

        If you want another reason: the food quality is all over the place.

        I used to like their non-chicken bucket menu items like the spicy big crunch and chicken bowls.

        But I stopped going because getting a chicken bowl from there as a “treat” instead of making one at home has been a disappointment, as was the last spicy big crunch. The ingredients just tasted off, like they had a manager that insisted on ingredients being used after they had started going bad or staff that didn’t know how (or care) to recognize that produce was off.

        Like it wasn’t at a “makes you sick” level, but it was gross and disappointing.

          I remember when their Fried Chicken Pizza came out… I figured “You do good chicken, and Yum Foods owns Pizza Hut, and I love their pizza… So… this should be a treat.”

          Felt like throwing up, only finished the damn thing because I paid so much for it and my mama taught me to never waste food that’s edible.
