Fucking absolutely!
It’s too late, McDonald’s screwed themselves on that by allowing the machine company to play stupid games. I don’t see McDonald’s as a place to go for ice cream, haven’t for literally decades, and I don’t know anyone who does.
I hope the temporary kickbacks they got were worth it.
McDonald corporation and their franchises are two separate entities. The corporation makes money no matter what. Its the franchises who suffer.
The Pistachio McFlurry is kinda nice ngl
Hold up. When and where is/was this a thing?
I tought it was a global thing.
It’s very hard to find it mentioned online outside of the Italian McDonald’s branch. There is a chance it might be local to my country.
I’m sure the contractor made out like bandits and is friends with the board of corporate so it’s totally fine since it’s the franchisees[sic] who are responsible for fixing it.
Braum’s gang sound off!
With my luck they’re also a shitty company and I had no idea…
They ended their exclusivity contract with the ice cream machine maker a few years back. So they can use other machines than the shitty ones.
Let’s do that but also for everything else money can buy.
Lets not forget the debacle where a third party company designed a cheap and permament fix for the ice cream machines and mcdonalds responded by comiting libel against that company. The company that makes the ice cream machine then outright stole their IP (found to have outright copy pasted code with comments and all) and briefly sold it as their own fix before I belive discontinuing it.
Kind of like the ice cream machine fix version of ‘embrace, extend, extinguish’ but with all the finesse of beating someone up in an alley.
90 days to have someone to come fix the damn thing, absolutely ridiculous.
I didn’t think they would actually talk about the McDonald’s ice cream machine but no, it looks like the comments specifically referred to “soft serve machines” that can cost as much as $625 in lost sales daily!
its weird how every joke about some aspect of america is just some kind of corporate corruption.
Corporate corruption is what makes America what it is
this is like years too late, I’m not going to mcdonalds for ice cream anymore, especially not now that it’s almost 6$ for a mcflurry. l can spend that much buying M&M’s and the ice cream myself and grt more than one serving for it
What inflation does to a mf
I remember McDonalds
