    Maybe;
    or not pass any extra cost$ along to customer.
    IF MCD workers choose not to make career out of flippin'burgers/ that's their choice

    Here is a McDonald's menu that claims to be from 1978.

    I'm not sure, but I think Big Macs were actually -- big -- back then.

    Those prices look about right for the time.

    What a goofy video/article. Big Macs did NOT look like that in the USA in the 1990s. And in fact, the one in that McD Aussie ad looks like a prop. Anyways, aside from regional differences, shrinkflation is a thing EVERYWHERE.
