It’s the cheese?
Tuesday, August 5th, 2008Recently it was announced that McDonald’s is considering the removal of the double cheeseburger from the Dollar Menu citing the rising cost of cheese. Meanwhile other franchises have been offering only one slice of cheese or raising the price of the burger.
This leaves one wondering — is it really the cheese? What does that say about the quality of the beef that McDonald’s uses in their burger. With all meats and dairy products seeing an increase in price, shouldn’t beef be the cause of the decision to remove the burger from the Dollar Menu? Between July 2007 and Jul7 2008, beef prices have gone up 38 percent.
This makes one wonder about the quality of the beef that McDonald’s uses…
