Had my first McDonald's steak egg and cheese bagel in 4 years....I remembered how good they were before they were discontinued...
Of course, they cost more now, but the meat/steak size has shrunk big time....it's all bagel now with a tiny piece of steak in the middle.

Costco was jammed packed today in Harlem. That first of the month crowd. Jam packed with Hispanics, mideastern, Africans, even cacs up in there . Buying mad food, water, etc.. people looking like they smart shopping. Just buy and prepare food at home much cheaper

Costco in my neck of the woods is ALWAYS packed, more than half of the customers there in any given day are Asians, all of them.

This bullshit for the most part started with Covid. A lot of these companies here took advantage of Covid and greed. And as I stated earlier, you could add one or two more dollars to some of these meal prices and give full entrée at Chili’s Longhorn or Texas roadhouse Grill.

McDonald's is considering a $5 meal to win back customers. Here's what you'd get.

The $5 meal could include a choice of a McChicken, a McDouble or four-piece chicken nuggets along with fries and a drink.
