Curious question about Big Mac Udonthani

Post by **Mudguard** » April 4, 2016, 11:44 am

I had a big mac lunch yesterday and I noticed the meat was not the same size as usual!

It was smaller and quite noticeable... Have Mac cut the size of the meat patties and not said anything?

Has anyone else noticed any difference in meat size... Cheers, Mudguard.

They did the same thing to Wagon Wheels when I was a kid...

Size goes goes down but not the price just adds more to the bottom line not only macca's Cadbury have doing it to there products for years.

Why complain over size of Big Mac when You can get a great Sandwich at FARANG's New DELI SANDWICH SHOP next to

Chern Chim. Try it out and give a response here on UM so we can learn about price and size and satisfaction.

Kind regards from

could be that McDonald's ran out of Big Mac patties and decided to use the smaller hamburger patties...

Did you ask?

... maybe you'd have got a more informed answer there rather than here ....

In the social media there is word that these are supposed to come now to the malls in Korat, Khon Kaen and Udon.
Competition is always good.

I have never had a particular desire to enter a McDonald's anywhere.

I think that the pattie is an astoundingly poor example of what a hamburger should look & taste like & the bun more closely resembles polystyrene than bread.

My desire to enter one of their stores in Thailand has not been increased by this story currently doing the Thai social media rounds.

just looked it up out of curiosity . it only has two 1.6 oz (45.4 g) patties (90.8g), I didn't realized it's not even a quarter pounder, and they lose weight when cooked. so no ones going to get fat on the meat content

The sugary drinks have gotten bigger and many of the other items have gotten smaller. But the coffee isn't bad and it's a dollar a cup for all you can drink. There's one across the street from where I'm staying. I get a cup and sit and watch the girls while I surf the Web.

Sorry but I can't resist it.

How do you know if a 'jock' is a Macdonald or a Campbell.

Hoist up his kilt and see if he's got a quarter pounder. :-"

Mc D's in Australia were fined serious money for this false advertising on Chargrilled Burgers

They had the chargrilled black lines, pasted on at manufacturing point.

Also the advertising gurus will have the picture showing a huge burger. How ! ???

Easy they cut the burger in half and pull the contents to the front of the Bun to give the impression its large.

What if it's a Whopper under there? Just tell 'em to hold the pickle!

I haven`t noticed them getting smaller, but the price is going up, up, up...
In Bangkok, the price for a Big Mac is 179 baht now. A couple years ago it was 30-40 baht less.

A Zinger Burger w/fries and drink at KFC is 90 baht most places in Thailand, but in Bangkok it`s 169 baht at several stores.
