mcdolans ran a real stupid ad campaign slamming kale
now they offer kale on one their burgers
they are literally doing anything
If they're literally doing anything then they better bring back the Arch Deluxe with its crack-sauce and peppered bacon...
I think that was the most unhealthy single-patty burger they ever made, so it probably won't find its way back.
Which is a shame, it was delicious.
i would put the odds of this being 50/50, actually
them slamming kale was their attempt at doubling down
it obviously didn't work, but i'm sure they're combing through historical sales data and looking at current trends to see if they can reinvent themselves without doing anything new
When an individual applies for a loan, the lender examines the credit ratings of members of the individual's social network who are connected to the individual through authorized nodes. If the average credit rating of these members is at least a minimum credit score, the lender continues to process the loan application. Otherwise, the loan application is rejected.

It seems like every time McDonald's starts to sag, they hire a brand new CEO that does the same exact thing -- "Hey, what if we sold FANCY food, eh?!" -- that flops spectacularly. Nobody who wants good food goes to McDonalds, and McDonald's seems like it's constantly embarrassed of their strongest market appeal: dirt-cheap food served hot 24 hours a day.

Having "hard times" for a multinational/billion dollar business means "not pulling record profits"
They're probably pulling decent and serviceable numbers, but their board/shareholders want more dolla bills and get antsy if this years numbers weren't better than last years.
The issue is Americans are sick of being fat.
So fast food as we know it is out the door.
If I'm paying $8 for a value meal with shitty ingredients, and can get a similar cost meal at places like panera bread that tastes better, why would I even bother? Fast is out the door for "quality" now-a-days. They'd probably see a return if they offered higher quality food, and healthier options in general.
not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me
This is really what they decided to go with. This is worth spending money on because it will improve our sales, said someone who makes a lot of money in exchange for ace decision making.

I always see monstrous lines when I walk by the Mickey Dees in the city.
Which just bothers me because there are better options at similar prices all over the city, but it doesn't look like they are hurting for business.
i mean, they're still doing massive volume by virtue of the fact that they are a global brand
but they are not hitting the numbers they need to grow or maintain profits, are bleeding customers, and are dealing with an america that is choosing healthier options (or food that seems healthier) more and more

Yeah, they should double down on their dollar / value menu, and the 2 for X deals - that's the shit the brings people in. If you can be full for under five dollars, there is a huge market there.
It is telling that almost all of their new stuff ends up costing 7-9 dollars in a value menu. I'd rather spend a dollar or two more and get five guys.

Start a different chain and do that stuff there in test markets.
Bringing the average cost of a McDonald's meal up 200% over the past few years is not helping them, clearly.

I think... Amex did something kind of similar a few years back, or at least it got exposed that they were doing it. Based on where you were using your Amex they adjusted your "unlimited" spending limit. Buy a lot of stuff at Walmart and eat fast food? Lower limit than someone shopping at places deemed to be higher value.
That new Hamburlgar looks exactly like the Hamburlgar would look in an unofficial "This Ain't MxxxDonalds" porno. Or an official one too I guess, maybe they should try that.

If they're literally doing anything then they better bring back the Arch Deluxe with its crack-sauce and peppered bacon...
And maybe focus mainly on burgers
And maybe a new name. "Internal and External" has a ring
They could try bringing back Grimace, the Hamburlgar, and the Fry Kids. Get customers hooked while they're young.
I think that was the most unhealthy single-patty burger they ever made, so it probably won't find its way back.
Which is a shame, it was delicious.

They did recently try to do a gritty sexy reboot of Hamburglar. Guess it isn't working.
