Sorry for the long delay, I’ve been a bit busy. Just a quick update and a bit of a rant. This is a bit of old news that was recently brought back into my consciousness by the news tonight. As the Wichita Eagle reports, a man in Kansas was so enraged by the recent decision McDonald’s made to change McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger to the McDouble, that he decided to scream and punch the drive through window, before taking off and leading the police on a short chase. So what’s the difference between a double cheeseburger and the McDouble? In essence, it’s a slice of cheese. The McDouble has one and costs $1, while the McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger has two slices of cheese, and costs $1.19. McDonald’s hasn’t said anything substantial on the issue, but the hush-hush is that it’s the economy that caused the increase price.
