If you have closely paid attention to McDonald's, over the years right here in Victoria there are many items you can't get anymore, and even the "Secret Menu" items are no longer offered.
Also the price increases have have gone up 30, 40, 50% or More on some items in a rather short period of time on a good variety of the menu..(Say 10 years). I would have expected the prices to go up, but not so much. One example is a sausage and egg McMuffin.....10 years ago I was paying $ 1.84 including tax. Today it's just under $4 dollars tax included.
Some of the changes I have noticed ( and obviously their has been many more then I can think of ) :
-The Pies went from being deep fried, to being baked
-The boxes of McDonald's cookies was discontinued after decades of them being on the menu
-The "Super Size" option was discontinued
- The Shamrock Shake was discontinued for quite some time and then brought back
- Mc Pizza was discontinued in Victoria
- The 24 Hour Drive-Through was introduced (24 Hour Lobby in some locations)
- The 20 Piece Chicken McNugget was discontinued
- The breakfast meal combos used to have an option of an extra breakfast sandwich built right in as a combo choice (that's discontinued)
- Ronald Mc Donald himself.......Gone, or at least put into storage. Nobody's seen him in years.
- All the McDonald's Charaters...Gone, or at least put into storage
- When filling a French Fry Container they used to actually open the container right up and fill it completely..........Now they keep the container flat so less fries go into it.
- Soft drinks have gone to Self Serve
- Self order Kiosks were introduced
- Online ordering with your cell phone or computer has been introduced
- Kids Play Zones have gone from being Out-Door to being Indoor.
And I am sure lots and lots more changes.
