    McD's planning on phasing out Supersize

    I am a fan of Supersizing.

    I enjoy choosing how unhealthy I eat. I guess the biggest issue for me is the drink. A large can't keep up with my awesome thirst. A Supersize Coke does a good job.

      hmmmm. i remember when supersize was only as big as the current large. same with wendy's. biggie size used to get you the boxes and cups that say biggie size. now they say great bigge. large is the biggie size.

        Oh well I never need a gallon of coke anyway. I always toss 3/4 of my super sized drinks.

            Uh-oh, looks like automagfreek is finally not going to waste so much money on food now. I'll have to break it to him lightly or he'll flip out and buy some biggie size from Wendy's.

              I'm glad to see the 2 litter of coke go away. Instead of spending the $1.50+ for a super size coke go and spend the $1 at a grocery store and get a 2 litter for cheaper.

                Then go to 7-11. You can get one of those giant mugs and refill it for like 80cents.

                I'd expect to see more of this in the future. People are gonna start making the fast food places be healthier. Means asmller portions and less lard. Wich means it will taste worse (if thats possible).

                  But there's something about their cokes..all fountain cokes really, they're so much better than the bottled stuff

                    that...and they're COLD

                    moreover, i'd rather have the option of adding the extra ounce of fat to my body or not...McDonalds shouldn't make that decision for me...commie bastards!

                      spazzzd is right. There's something different about McD's soda. It tastes..almost sweeter.

                        Beat me to it... not that I have a HUGE problem with it, but I think people should be allowed to exercise some sort of self control...

                          basically....all the people without common sense and self control have a problem with this. I, having a metabolism that is through the roof, can eat a supersize meal, or more and take no ill effect. People should be able to regulate what they eat on their own.

                            Considering that when I go to a fast food place (perhaps 4-6 times a year) all I get is a super-size fries this'll suck.
