minus-square@MacAttak8link3•edit-22 months agoI see a lot of people saying it has always been that size. I cannot find official documentation. I’m comparing that photo to this, which is what mine looked exactly like: https://www.reddit.com/r/shrinkflation/comments/15imuxv/grand_big_mac_super_thin_meat/#lightbox

minus-square@MacAttak8link3•2 months agoI totally follow you there. I don’t disagree with you. All I am relying on is my personal experience with Big Macs, which used to be a lot. These new ones are not as thick as they used to be. Different beef cooks differently, different fat percentages for example. Also, I guarantee all those frozen patties do not weigh the same. Even if they can convince regulators that they average out to the advertised weight.
