Did the chicken sandwich shrink?
 

I went to McDonalds last night for a quick drive through and ordered the McChicken sandwich combo meal. Now, I have not been to McDonalds in a long time, but when I got home the damn sandwich was about the size of my thumb.

ok.. you know what else really pissed me off.. well their supposed new and improved all white meat chicken nuggets taste exactly the same, except they shrunk in size! I was like WTF... they get all hyped up to introduce their shrunken chicken nuggets.. that was the only real change. :mad: so yeah, their chicken sandwich probably shrunk too

AznSAE, I'm pretty sure they feature a chicken sandwich on their new "Dollar Menu". Do you think maybe they gave one of those instead of the regular chicken sandwich? Because, yes, those things are tiny.

DZGirl, I have to say that I LOVE the new white meat McNuggets! I think they taste a lot better than the old ones. But after reading your post, I'm starting to wonder if my new enjoyment is psychological (ie: I feel I can freely enjoy my McNuggets because they no longer feature chicken lips, feet and whatever sundry chicken parts) in nature and they really don't taste different at all.

But then, I put on so much barbeque sauce I could be eating styrofoam and not know it.

i have to agree - the new chicken mcnuggets don't taste any different. when you want nuggets, wendy's is the only way to go.

I wonder if their change to all white meet had anything to do with them having to meet certain FDA regulations? Pure speculation here, but it sounds about right.

Dollar Menu
 

I just discovered that the items on the Dollar Menu seem to have changed. The sizes that are a $1 appear to have gone down (say from a M to a S)... Anyone else notice that?

Have you all tried those Select Strips from McDonald's? I absolutely love those things! They're back now, but I don't know for how long...they had them before, about a year ago, and they offered them long enough for me to get hooked and then they took them off the menu! How dare they! I didn't eat at McDonald's for ages after that...partly because I don't really like anything else they have other than fries, but mostly because I was ticked. That's just mean. :p

Hey! I noticed that to the last time I got a chicken sandwich there. :mad: (It was the grilled chicken).

Quit being cheap Mickey D's!

hahahaha KR, well when you put it that way... "sundry chicken parts," I guess I am now more content with the change.. even though they are smaller.. so sad, so sad hehe

I like the new McNuggets better...they do taste basically the same, but the texture isn't icky like it was...if that makes any sense.

Personally I'm waiting for the Chicken Parmesan sandwich to return!

...actually when I was in NYC, the McDonalds on 42nd Street (near Times Square) had little tiny donuts that you could buy, called Mini McDonuts. This is similar to the Diddy Donuts you can get at Burger King in England. I'm waiting for those to come out this way!

Now I haven't paid too much attention, but do they advertise ALL white meat? Because I feel like every commercial I've heard has just said "now with white meat" which led me to believe they just mixed white meat in with the chicken sundry parts.

haha chicken lips! :p

I haven't been to McDonald's for food in a long time. I like their ice cream flurries. Is that the name? Anyway it is good with M&M's.

They were always a mix of white meat and "other" parts of the chicken allegedly. Now they're all white meat.

They taste teh same to me too.....

The only thing I eat from there are the chicken strips and SOMETIMES fries. I don't eat them anymore, but they have mozzerella sticks too now.

I like the McRib.

And I hope it comes back one day.

There; I've just admitted that in front of everyone! :)

I love mcdonalds regional food even though i dont eat it. The chinese food, the yogurt drinks in the middle east, the brats in the midwest, and i hear hawaiian box lunch type deals now too.
