I'm pretty sure McDonald employees didn't wait 2050 to hawk tuah in the burgers

Would you like to skibisize it for 67c

[–] rbos@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 months ago

C of course being 'century', the new shorthand for $100.

What is vegan at McDonalds? Even their fries have beef flavoring added

[–] pulsewidth@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

The fries are vegan in Australia ever since they stopped cooking them in beef tallow - around early 2000s iirc.

However, their own website says they offer no menu options certified as vegan or vegetarian, due to cross-contamination being something they don't wish to deal with.

Understandable as additional prep areas would be quite expensive, but also it's a pretty weak copout when they could go to the effort of labelling their vegan/vegetarian items (with the asterisked proviso that they may have cross-contam).. I suspect it's really to allow them to change up menu item suppliers to cheaper alternatives whenever they like, because they also do not bother to label any menu items with allergen info - and that's very standard across even small cafes nowadays. To find allegen info you have to dig through a PDF that they update every few months.

Well you see, the staff is now robots, so in order to get that classic spit in McD's flavor, they had to create a replacement sauce to match the spit flavor.

You pay extra for sauce.

Back in my day we had authentic spit in our burgers. I swear automation is taking the soul out of eating out.

Goddamn fleshlights are ruining everything!

Do they not have groceries in the future or something?

[–] bob_lemon@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

I'd prefer a humanoid robot taking an order over the soulless upselling dark pattern filled touchscreens we have now.

So maccas will employ sentient i-dogs in 2050? That's retro as fuck

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Han shot his sauce first.
