Are Big Macs getting smaller?

Question

It seems the big mac meat patty is getting smaller. I can't tell but i almost feel like the whole thing bun and all is smaller. Atleast it was obviously in a smaller box.

Answer 1

Yes, to me too!  It seems as though the bun and the patty were the same size around but now I find that the patty is much smaller.  I  think that it is the fat content that has been brought to everyone's attention or they are using a more fatty hamburger that cooks down smaller.  Yes, I agree!

Answer 2

No,it's just people that are getting bigger,the obesity in this country is getting out of hand,I don't know where certain groups get the notion that people are going to bed hungry

Answer 3

Big Macs are the same size as they were 15 years ago - and they generate the same amount of foul smelling diarrhea and wet gas as before too.

Answer 4

Yes and more filler to like lettuce and pickles added. the burger them selves are maybe 1/8 pound each..

Answer 5

Not really... I thought so too, but the meat still weighs the same...  Not sure what is going on...  still like'em though...

hey, but if you notice... they STOPPED toasting the buns in most locations... so the bun is not as small....

Answer 6

Answer 7

Answer 8

I would'nt be surprise if thats the case.they have to try and save some profit from somewhere.The rising cost of fuel is mad .I think you're right.

Answer 9

Yes, everything at McDonalds is getting smaller.

They even import the smaller buns from Seattle, which they sell in Vancouver, Canada.

The coffee cups have also become smaller, and so have their ice cream products.

Answer 10

They have begun to look smaller since 1979!

Answer 11

yes they are getting smaller.  they use the same meat, that is used for the smaller burgers ( the ones on the dollar menu).

Answer 12

The only thing getting bigger today is the prices on everything. You pay more for less.

Answer 13

its the same patty they use for the one dollar burger,(mostly bread now)they just put two of them on there,cheaper to buy 2 one dollar burgers and add some thousand island dressing,,,taco bell tacos have absolutely no meat whatsoever either.

Answer 14

Yes they are.  A total rip-off for what you get.  And this is happening while McVomit was touting larger size patties to compete with Burger King.  They lied.
