The hell is that fry cup? Do places really serve them pre-ketchup’d?
Mmmm just how I like 'em. Soggy and oversauced.
More like Shrinkflation is infuriating, not interesting.
I unknowingly bought a pack of 7 hotdogs the other day. Straight up thought I lost a hot dog.
Shrinking the prices to right…right? /s
The meal the article starts with is $8, so yes they are shrinking the prices too. That’s a big point in the article, that people who aren’t eating entire meals will not want to keep paying full price for meals they mostly throw away
Last time I found something on the adult menu for that low of a price it was the side salad.
Read the article
Not in my america, boy
Too*
This is the kind of article that I always find fascinatingly American in nature. Not just in it’s content about obesity and meal size, but in how insanely blind it is to the literal entire rest of the world.
It’s all written like smaller meal sizes are this crazy new thing when literally every tourist to the US is constantly talking about how insanely massive the portion sizes are everywhere.
It’s also a fascinating bit of advertising wrapped up in revisionist marketing bullshit and that’s as American as Granny’s Apple Pie* ™ *not actually apple pie
You are missing the point what this shill is about
Which is what? That they’re selling smaller food for less money?
For more money*
This shill op is to condition peasants to accept shrinkflation after they double the prices over last 4 years aka inflation
Prices rarely go down and they ran them to the peak so now they reducing portion sizes
Industry paid good money for that PR release.
What about the last four years makes you think they need an op to enact shrinkflation?
If they didn’t need propaganda, they would waste ton of money on it.
Game 101
Regimes leanred it works in early 20th century.
Corpo’s been using PR slop since world war 2
Advent of marketing corpos in 21st century, and their election meddling clearly shows it works.
Your reasoning is circular though.
You’re claiming that you know this is an industry paid article because it’s pushing the industry PR line about shrinkflation, and you know that they need to push the industry PR line because it’s a paid for article.
I am an online shit poster… Do your own research ;)
That’s a weird shill op…
Back in my day that’s what we called shrinkflation but the modern version is where size gets smaller but the price still goes up 🤡
As long as the prices go down too, I’m ok with smaller meals.
I can’t remember the last time I finished a meal at a restaurant, I always eat half and then take the rest to go. Most things reheat pretty well, even fries taste good when reheated in a toaster oven.
Same, if I don’t have enough to take home then I usually don’t go back.
Can’t afford to waste <3 hours of my pay/life to still be hungry later that night.
Lower prices? Lol not happening.
Actually weird that it has taken so long. As a smaller person I was unable to finish any plate when I visited the states and wished there was an option for me to order a “child’s” portion. This also makes it easier for people to lose weight while not on glp1.
I don’t think i ever finished a whole meal in a restaurant. I was never able to eat a lot in one sitting. At home i eat so much, but i just spread it out over time.
One day i went to a restaurant for lunch. It was an american style restaurant, whatever that means and the owner (it just opened) was american. I ordered the menu and while ordering the guy next to me just got his food. The same thing i ordered. It was the biggest plate with the most obscene amount of food i have ever seen. I told the waiter that this is ridiculous and i’m not even gonna eat a quarter of it. If i can have a smal portion (for the same price, idc.) and he was very reluctant to do so, so he called the owner. They wouldn’t serve me a small portion, because other people might see my plate and think they don’t get enough food in his establishment. And i kid you not, a quarter of that plate is still enough to fill two normal plates to the brim. Absolutely wild, and i had to leave
OH OH OHHHH OZEMPIC!
Sorry, still got that stuck in my head
Auto parts!
Advanced Auto Parts?
Pretty sure that’s O’reliegh
Nature is beginning to heal.
Real question, is quality going up?
I sincerely can’t care anymore about endless portions of trash that taste like slop or BBQ but crave the original flavors that are bold and well prepared, wouldn’t even flinch to pay the same for these rather than a pound of fries and something I cannot finish and will become unedable after an overnight in the refrigerator.
We all know they’ll never dare to increase the quality… at least, not w a massive price hike lmao
This person Capitalisms
WTF is wrong with BBQ?!
Fries reheat fine in the oven btw
Thank goodness. I’m not on Ozempic and even my fat ass can’t finish a restaurant meal anymore.
