Proud McDonald’s franchisee 🍔🍟. Opinions are mine own. I am not McDonald’s and I don’t speak for my Franchisor. // Mirror crossposting Twitter account to Bluesky. Unofficial. DM for takedown / claim ownership.

Yes. This saying was used tongue-in-cheek around 2018. There was a lot of friction between the franchisor and the franchisees over some decision-making; someone made these hats. Had nothing to do with food or ingredients, all internal dealings with the McFamily relationships.

Here’s the irony: rumor has it McD bought Donato’s Pizza in 1999 for $200M and sold it back to the original family a couple of years later in 2003 for only $50M. This former McD pizza chain has figured out automation while McD hasn’t 🍕🤖

I acquired this relic years ago: battered and beaten. I can only imagine the number of Big Macs it made. Unsure whether to refurbish or leave as is. I believe it’s from the mid-70’s, crazy part, it’s an automatic movement and still works!

I kid you not, I just got a tariff rebate check for just over $1k for one piece of McD equipment I had to purchase last year from an approved vendor. Just one piece of equipment….insane.

🚨 @McDonalds rarely responds to allegations. This may be only the second time I’m aware they issued a fact sheet, this time on the flawed @reuters reporting that resulted in major allegations & shock headlines around AI and pricing. Feel free to use Community Notes 😇

Jon sits on the Global Leadership Team for @McDonalds along with the CEO. Here is his statement on the false reporting by Reuters and the mass assumptions by many large X accounts that blew up my feed today.

Fancy name for elasticity. For the record, almost every restaurant chain has an algorithm that does this from Taco Bell to Zaxbys to Dennys to Carrabas to dennys to First Watch to Wing Stop to the Cheesecake Factory. I’m not sure there is a larger chain that doesn’t.

The beauty of the OG mixing spoon Many people never realized that the old funky McFlurry spoon was actually just a hygienic way for us to mix the McFlurry. This ensures the mixing spindle is always 100% clean. x.com/McFranchisee/status/169518746…

Last year Molson tied the rent he charges the tenant to the price of his local Big Mac. The result: 2025: $4.99 2026: $5.29 He’s just lucky he didn’t choose the Big Mac meal as it’s $8 nationwide!

If a customer pays with a @McDonalds Arch Card, I still pay a 1.25% fee. That's more than I'd expect since a McD-controlled entity runs it (P2W), but cheaper than a traditional credit card. The fee covers the operational costs of the program.

This is probably a top-three Happy Meal toy. Yes, it’s in the McCollection. My favorite part is that you can use them individually yet put them all together. A marketing masterpiece. #1 Changeables #2 McNugget Buddies #3 Inspector Gadget What’s yours?

As KFC closes locations in the US, they’re rolling out brekkie in Australia. A new day-part is big. It shouldn’t come as a surprise; Aussies do it differently. Case in point, K-Mart is still bustling there!

The only thing added to our 100% USDA fresh beef is salt & pepper as it comes off our grill. This is my go-to lunch at McD’s 90% of the time. If only we could get a Big Mac made with these quarter pounders! 🤞🍔

Yes, this is odd. I’ve never seen any other chain endorse a candidate. However, chains do have PAC’s & lobbyist so it’s not like they are apolitical but they do it from a distance, not up close 😆

We sold so many that some restaurants ran out of beef and it strained our beef supply. That’s a lot! Partnering on discounts is a pretty rare occurrence but Corp did partner with us so we could offer it at an extreme discount of $6.

History lesson: almost 20 years ago Arby’s parent company bought Wendy’s and then sold off Arby’s. It was like a modern day commandeer. Apparently, Arbys hasn’t forgotten.

It’s interesting to see that a McOpCo is utilizing @cosmcs stock for 6 different McCafé syrups. Most of our ingredients are private-labeled (with McDonald’s on them), so it’s interesting to see who the actual vendors are sometimes.
