I did the drive thru at McDonalds yesterday and ordered a small extra value meal. I was told that they don’t have small, just medium and large.
Medium is defined as “about halfway between two extremes of size.” If there are only two sizes then one is small the other is large. You can’t have medium if you only have two sizes. McDonalds needs to get it right.
BTW, friends have told me that this isn’t unique to McDonalds, some other fast food places do the same thing.
I did write McDonalds to file a formal complaint of their misuse of language.
Thoughts?
