I swear McDonald's used to feed a family of 4 for $20 back in the day I swear it did. Unless I'm crazy

I swear growing up my brother, my parents and I could go to McDonald's and get meals for roughly $20 maybe slightly more. Nowadays it's roughly $10 for one person

The size of the burgers are considerably smaller too.
I remember getting a McDonald's big mac when I was over at a Friend's house and not being able to eat the whole thing.

@Adrift My oldest cousin met her husband when they worked at a Chicago area McDonald's back in the mid 70's, he was a grill cook and told me that the regular patties were 6:1, meaning six uncooked patties equaled a pound. When I was a McDonald's grill cook briefly in early 2015, the regular uncooked patties were 10:1, now I am told they are 12:1, half the size they were 50 years ago.
