    Angry Macca's down sizes

    Just been speaking to the Macca's manager near were I work and he told that all the big burgers have been down sized or removed from the menu. Your Quarter Pounder will now be on a 4" bun the same size as a cheese burger, instead of the usual 6" bun. But the price will remain the same until the backlash dies down then the price will go up. He also said that since these changes were announced to the store managers 40 odd managers had quit in protest in Sydney alone. Must be trying to make up the money they lost pulling out of Iceland last week. Well it back to the fish and chip shop for a real burger.

    Parents are the ones that can stop kids turning out to be big and fat....got nothing to do with Macca's or any other fast food joint. Unless of course I'm mistaken and these kids have jobs, earn money and drive themselves to these places . If you are a fat adult or a fat kid that is due to choices "YOU" make....or in the case that "PARENTS" make. I'm a fatty cause I don't do enough exercise and enjoy one to many beers...whose fault is that....mine or the various brewerys. Sorry just a bugbear of mine when I see an example of people who abrogate responsibilities and blame someone/ corporation for their current circumstance.

    Regards

    Stevo
