And the meal is smaller than ever. I went to McDonalds the other day and got a fish fillet sandwich. It was comically smaller than the last time I bought one. I guess the next time I buy one (assuming that ever happens) it will be on the atomic scale.

I'm not much of a fast food eater, but recently I got some while in a hurry to feed two people.

We got two junior bacon cheeseburgers, one regular cheeseburger, and a medium soda (which, by the way, was comically large--no wonder everybody has diabetes). So that is to say, we got three small cheeseburgers and a drink. It was over twenty bucks. We should have just gone to the fish and chips place down the street where we could have gotten two orders for the same price for more, and better quality, food.
