In the past I could stop at a McDonalds’s anywhere in the country and get pretty much the same food, fast and cheap. As they’ve tried to expand their menus the service has gotten slower, quality has suffered and prices have increased. I know they are considering reducing the menu selections which seems to make sense. After all if I want a salad Mickey D’s ain’t my first choice. However, they do have an opportunity to regain some of their lost appeal in the fast hamburger arena.

This one recently incorporated the "Create Your Taste" menu. This McD is roughly 2 miles away and on same street as the new McD construction.TheJohnPhttp://twitter.com/thejohnpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-38672484097351218492015-05-21T10:50:47.203-04:002015-05-21T10:50:47.203-04:00@MindspringYahoo,

The point I was trying to make was that McDonald's is near 85 whereas Zaxby's is on the "other side" close to 285. I'm sorry for the confusion. <br /><br />Thanks for your continued comments and readership.
