the backlash from the film “super size me” sort of slowed the size wars down for a bit but its starting to return tho… when I was a teen AP/PM (arcos brand of convenience store) had a 64 oz soda I never realized it was the equivalent a 2 liter bottle of soda and when it was 115 here i drank about 2-3 a day (they were refillable for 3/4s price
But after the movie and the mcd kerfuffle they moved it back down to a 48 oz but its climbed back up to 52… I think a 7-11 double gulp is 48 again also
Now What happened is they got rid of small and in someplace medium sizes of drinks so the large is medium and supersize is large and quarantine delivery made it worse because when people ate inside they bought smaller drinks because of the refill And then they didn’t and became annoyed when they realized they were paying 2 bucks plus for a drink with no refills so the drink size went back to being bigger in some places
is it possible in your area to get a 4 stacked whopper like it is in mine ?
One thing is some of the outrageous stuff were on unposted “secret menus” ie you had to know to ask about it like the above whopper
and when door dash and its ilk started posting menus that sort of thing was added and now jack in the box has something similiar and in some mdc’s you can get a “half pounder” with cheese if you ask …
