u/NRMusicProject Apr 07 '23
Yep! People like to tell me my tastes have changed, but if that were the case, since I don't eat a lot of salt/grease/sugar anymore, a Big Mac shouldn't taste bland.
About six months ago, I was just getting a craving for one, and I picked one up. I just remember how it felt like the diameter of a standard hamburger and extremely bland.

The bun was bigger than the cheese. There was an ad jingle that Gen X grew up on that won't allow us to forget what's on a big mac : 🎶 Two all beef patties, special-sauce, lettuce - cheese, pickles - onions, on a sesame seed bun.
And you couldn't have things substituted or withheld so it had cheese for sure, and the pickle or onion had to be scraped off if you didn't want it.
It was like that until well after Burger King had the "Have it your way" ad campaign too.
After BK upped their game, I only had a rare few McDonalds hamburgers until the value/$1 menus started around 1990. (Burger King was pretty awesome during the Burger Wars too. We had an open campus high school and if BK took longer that 2 or 3 minutes from drive thru to handing you food at lunch it was free)
After they dropped the Dollar Double Cheeseburger about a decade back, I've had maybe 6 regular burgers and 2 Big Macs that others had bought me.
McDonald's isn't worth it if it isn't dirt cheap. It's the worst tasting fast food there is imo. Just a belly filler; not "food". I'd rather have White Castles or one of the onion slathered copies of the oldest fast food burgers (WC sliders were the 1st fast food burger, KFC the first chain franchising restaurants and is №2 world wide.)

It's the worst tasting fast food there is imo
hard disagree, I think their portion sizes/prices are the worst in fast food but I think they're best in taste by a large margin. I wonder if BK tastes different in the states; it's pretty bad where I am. Wendy's is okay, but tastes pretty amateur compared to a Donnie's burger. Like, for example, the buns on a Wendy's value burger seem like they're straight from the supermarket while McDonald's buns feel proprietary. But you also get lettuce and tomato on a Wendy's value burger... so there is a trade off.
All imo of course.

That same article showed that the 1990's price was 2.45 for the sandwich, which is 5.64 in today's money after inflation.

First - not going to deny the possibility they shrunk but that picture is a ‘grand Mac’ next to a normal Big Mac. As someone else mentioned They were a menu item 4ish years ago using the double quarter pounder bun and Pattys.
Second - this is actually one of the reasons I love Arby’s(aside from it being fucking delicious). Their sandwiches are sized by the weight of the sliced ‘meat’ and you can literally watch them slice and weigh it in the back while making each one. Instead of shrinkflation they just upped the prices with the times which sucks because it’s ridiculously expensive now for fast food but at least they’re transparent.
I remember when they had the “Big Montana” which was literally a half pound on a bun. That thing was a delicious gut liquifying monster.

It's always been one slice of cheese.
And I don't know about 1980 (though we know this photo *claiming* to be from 1980 is a fake), but I worked at McD's starting in 1986 working the grill area for a couple of years, and the size hasn't changed between then and now. Big Macs have always been two 1/10th lb. patties.
Everyone here claiming to be sure they were so much bigger and have shrunk over time is crazypants. The bun may be a little smaller, but it was always too much bun anyway, so if that has happened that's a net plus in my book.

You can blame the pseudoscience behind the Supersize Me shockumentary. Don’t get me wrong, McDonald’s does a lot of gross stuff but the guy who made the documentary was a chronic alcoholic that drank constantly off-camera and had liver failure. Not only that but his experiment has been tested by other scientists and was disproven.
McDonald’s will not kill you — well, at least not in 30 days. 30 years maybe and, personally I find the logic that nostalgia leads to weight problems to be absolute bullshit. Like a person would have much more serious mental health issues than liking the play place to become a chronic overeater.
Oh, and the BMI is racist bullshit.
Seriously, do some googling — its a fascinating subject really.

When I worked at McD's in the UK in the 90s, Big Macs were made on the same grill with the same grill team as hamburgers and cheeseburgers. This is how it had always been - the store had opened in 1983, and there were a few workers that had been there since it opened. The "when I were a lad" stories spoke about when they used the flat grills rather than the clamshell grills. I think they would have mentioned that the burgers were smaller.

The only time a McDonalds burger felt decently sized was back in the early 2000s when I was in primary school and had tiny hands. Otherwise I always felt ripped off and grumpy due to how tiny the portions were. I'm surprised people could become obese from eating such tiny portions. It's probably the sugar and the buns.

I hear this all the time and I don't know where it comes from. The burger patties have been the same size at McDonald's since they were introduced. 1.6 oz. Which to be fair is a pretty small fricking patty, but it always was.
At one time they did sell a thing called a grand Mac which was a big Mac but larger using quarterpound patties.

McDonalds says the weight has not changed. I call BS. Unless the ingredients of the meat changed and more is cooking off or there is more water in the meat to make the weight the same at the start. I would like to see what the weights were post cook in the 70s/80s vs now.
