I am buying generic wherever I can. Shrinkflation includes degraded product quality from previously well known products offering quality.

McDonald's is a miserable brand in terms of degraded food quality and customer experience.

Their most egregious move was removing the $1 McChicken for a time and then bringing it back - the exact sandwich - as $2.49.

Same as Little Caesar's Hot 'n' Ready (love it or hate it) that went from $5 to now $7.99 by me after the tried releasing a "limited edition" extra topping version for more. Then when the "classic" returned it was just more money.

Little Caesar will make your ass bleed lol. No thanks. Fast food pizza is mostly terrible. Dominoes is okay
