Frustration Grows as McDonald’s Menu Prices Soar

McDonald’s customers are becoming increasingly frustrated with the rising prices at the popular fast-food chain. The company reported a staggering revenue of $6.69 billion in just three months, thanks to what they call “strategic menu price increases.” As a result, a Big Mac meal in Darien, Connecticut can now cost as much as $18.

Social media has been buzzing with complaints about McDonald’s prices, with customers expressing their dismay at the absence of affordable options on the dollar menu. In a recent Reddit thread asking what has become too expensive, fast food was one of the top answers, eliciting a flood of comments criticizing McDonald’s specifically.

“I couldn’t believe how expensive McDonald’s has gotten!” exclaimed one Reddit user. Another remarked, “Their so-called ‘value meal’ is now comparable to a sit-down restaurant like Applebee’s. It’s outrageous.”
