McDonald's looking to beef up with larger burgers

McDonald’s is looking to potentially beef up its offerings with a bigger burger.
CFO Ian Borden said Tuesday McDonald’s has "created a larger satiating burger" as the fast-food giant "look[s] to further build on our leadership in beef."
"We’ll be testing this burger in a few markets later this year, ensuring that it has universal appeal before scaling it across the globe," he added.

"We’re addressing an unmet customer need across markets for larger high-quality burgers," CEO Chris Kempczinski said in early February. "We’re working horizontally across the system to innovate. As we test and learn, we’ll be working to understand how the new offering will complement our already established burgers, like the Double QPC [Quarter Pounder with Cheese] or the Big Tasty."
In late January, U.S. locations added the Double Big Mac and its four beef patties to menus for a "limited time."
Over the past year, McDonald’s has made various changes to its popular cheeseburger, double cheeseburger, hamburger, McDouble and Big Mac.
The tweaks, made through its "Best Burger" initiative, aimed to make burgers "hotter," "juicier" and "tastier," the fast-food chain has said. It kicked off that program in early 2023.

I rarely eat McDonalds because when I am forced to, I literally can feel my body shutting down. I get sleepy and my body aches.
wtf are they putting in that food?

I’m not convinced they’re still using beef. At least not 100% beef.

What a dumb-frick thing to say.
Anybody who has been cooking can make a burger far and away better than anything produced by a fast-food chain. If you want fast food, there are some okay enough burgers. If I want a good burger, I'm going to make it myself or go to Five Guys.
CEO knows his market and knows they've fricked up being greedy citing inflation. Your market is trashy people and single families who don't have time to cook. You've out-priced them. Unless you're going back down in price while beefing up this burger, you'll continue on the slow death spiral the brand has been on since the early 2000s.

They did this before. It was called the Big Xtra. A 1/3 pound burger that was salty as crap and had it own size of bun.
Also because people are ignorant on fractions, people thought it had less beef than a quarter pounder.
The eventually replaced it with the Big N Tasty which was just a quarter pounder with lettuce and tomato and mayo.

So the CEO is basically admitting to serving small low-quality burgers.

Wish they would bring back the Homestyle burger from the late 90s

I ordered a Big Mac for the first time in 25 years a few weeks ago. All I could do was laugh at how bad it sucked compared to what it used to be.

It's not the beef that's making people fat.

The meat is still good* - its the buns, fries, sugary drinks and ice cream / pasties that make you sluggish
Did you know you can just order QP patties with salt and pepper for between $1.25 and $2 each? It's served in a box or in a breakfast tray.
* - I think. Haven't researched in a while
