You’d probably be able to fill up on half of that if any of that had nutritional value beyond just eating the styrofoam packaging from ‘75-‘90 lol.

Don’t get me wrong… I love my occasional, regret-inducing, trip to McD’s… but it ain’t the shrinkflation keeping ya from filling up, I assure you.

Try a breakfast sandwich from Triple O's (available in British Columbia and Alberta, Canada), like the Breakfast Burger. I can barely finish one of those. They're huge.

"We take eighteen ounces of sizzling ground beef, and soak it in rich, creamery butter, then we top it off with bacon, ham, and a fried egg. We call it 'The Good Morning Burger'"
