Only in a few restaurants in Manhattan.

I don't know if this is related, but in the old Horn & Hardardt automats, there was a "tradition" among the financially stretched to create tomato soup by combining hot water, salt, pepper & catsup . . . which were all free.

I have been charged for those little packets of honey ($0.25) at an airport Mickey-D's

So what's the problem?? They've done this for ages with McNugget sauces. They charge for extra's. They aren't charging for EACH. Do people really NEED 10 packs of ketchup? If so, then THEY can pay for them.

Off topic thread du jour....

Why do I feel like I'm reading The National Enquirer?

 

[BeerorKid]

I will just have water, but if I could get 8 slices of lemon and some sugar packets that would be great.

Went into a McD's in Royal Oak, Michigan on Woodward Ave, location of the Woodward Dream Cruise.

Ordered a McDouble from the $1 menu and asked for no mustard or Ketchup but "extra pickles". I was told that will be an extra $0.25!

No thank you!

 

[cwbullet]

If they do, I won't go back.

I am glad I quit going to those places 15 years ago, when the kids out grew it. They also charge you for a take out orders. Here they charge you .10 each for grocery bags, to try and keep the trees from blooming bags when the wind blows.

 

[michigander]

gotta love companys that will spend $1000.00 in advertisng to get a customer .. but loose same over 10 cents

 

[shrox]

The fast food restaurants out west have been doing that for two years.

Yall don't need to be eatin that crap anyway. For a guy that can handle a great variety of different kinds of foods, I've never been able to stomach a McD's burger. Even since I was a kid, they've made me sick. 100% ground beef my a$$!

Go inside, you can fill as many condiment cups as you like from the pump dispenser. This of course assumes that they have the pump dispenser filled.

My grand daughter will usually ask for McDs when we go out and what Baby Girl wants...

I myself do suffer from the occasional Big Mac attack.

I have a friend who is in his mid forties, he has had a half a dozen heart surgeries, he eats McDonalds for almost every meal. Just saying.

 

[shrox]

At least the Taco Bell here doesn't charge for hot sauce.

When I did eat McD's I could not get more than 10ft from the porcelain throne! I'm glad the kids grew up, 'cause the grand kids don't go. At least I don't take them! Others I don't know, at least they don't tell me any ways.

Apparently, unlike you and I, some people have a taste for shtako. The only thing I could eat from there was the French fries. There's no telling just WHO they're putting in their burger beef. It's all Ronald McDonald's fault. Getting kids all humpy jumpy over mystery meat burgers.

This is exactly the reason I quit eating McDs food 17 years ago. It amazes me that some folks eat this stuff several times a week:y:YUK!!

It's the chemtrails they're spreading all over the place. Making people too complacent and vulnerable to suggestion. Mindless automatons doing what we see and hear. SO....getting back to the initial subject, I think the fast food industry thinks, if the airlines can get away with charging fees like the land line phone companies, why shouldn't they?

My grandma would tell a similar story about the Great Depression, along with a piece of bread from the bread lines that were common at the time.

I can count on one hand how often I eat that kind of food in a year. I'm not sure if I have extended my life span, but I sure don't want to go out that way!

Indeed! Imagine, if you will, the nurse hovering over you saying, "One too many meals at Micky D's. Sorry to see you go on that note."

WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO WHERE WE CAN NO LONGER ASK FOR CONDIMENTS WITHOUT PAYING EXTRA I MEAN OH MY GOD COME ON PEOPLE HAVE SOME COMMON SENSE.

That is all.

 

[DizWolf]

I can see trying to eliminate waste. I remember the days when they'd throw handfuls in the bag without even asking. But if you ask for it, they should throw it in. I could see charging if someone wants 10 packets for a burger, but when they allot 2 sauces for 20 nuggets....well that's just annoying.

Personally, McD's is bland bland bland food. How they compete with BK, Wendy's, and arby's, who all have tasty food on the menu, baffles me. Oh, yea they're cheapskates that's how.

However.... Breakfast there is amazing, and I'm pretty sure McGriddles are laced with crack.

What irritates me is that I don't like cheese on my hamburgers, but they don't have a Quarter Pounder without cheese on the regular menu, so Often I pay for the cheese I ask for them to leave off, but then if We add cheese to someone else's sandwich in the same order, they charge extra for it. It's only 20 cents or so, but hey, don't charge me extra when I add it and not reduce the price for it when I don't!

The worst part is they usually screw up my order and put cheese on it anyway.

Exactly! That is why I have not had a McDs burger in years. I do not like cheese, pickles & onions. I don't mind too much that I pay for what I am not getting, but most fast food places get my order right 40% of the time, less by drive thru! Whataburger is the best as far as service and tasty burgers. If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself.
As far as ketchup, and other condiments, I try to take what I need and not more!

 

[BeerorKid]

to anyone complaining PM me your paypals and I will send you $1 so you can splurge. It is the least I can do

 

[goldlizard]

One thing I did notice when I did eat at these places, is that no matter where you are in the world, THEY ALL TASTE THE SAME. McD's in Las Vegas tastes the same as the one in Bakersfield and Portland and Norfolk ect.....
