MICKEY D PORTION CONTROL - CONTROL

Sent to McDonald's:

I had to write since I find this so amazing. We live two miles from your store. Every so often we like to get a couple of hot fudge sundaes. Last time, about a week ago, the container was 2/3 full, but we were in a hurry and thought the workers was just in a hurry. THIS time - last night - we stopped and when both were only 2/3 full, I said so. The reply: "We've been running out of ice cream at the end of the month so management told us to make them smaller."

That's just wrong. Poor planning or popularity is not excuse for under-sizing portions.

And I thought you were the masters of portion control!

There's not enough ice cream in a 2/3 serving to make the trip worthwhile. You've lost us.
