McDonald's sales fell for the first time since 2020 as the world's biggest restaurant chain plays catch-up with rivals.

      They would use sand if they could, but 2.65/hr? Nope, not here in CA. In 2021 it was $14/hour, $15 in 2022 and rose to $20/hour in 2024.

      They absolutely use sand (silicon dioxide). Their website listing the beef patty as only beef + salt + pepper is a total fucking lie.
