imo, the dishonesty is less about the size and more about how all the toppings look fresh on the menu, while in person they look like aged out grocery store culls and the burger always looks like someone put it between their ass cheeks and then watched a Peter Jackson movie before serving it.

i don't really really get how one articulates that in a lawsuit.

i never really noticed it besides the hack bit in Falling Down until i went to a mcdonalds in japan. every item on the menu came out like a goddamn prop for a promotional photo. surreal. kinda made me realize that unless you're willing to fork over a day's median wage or more in the US for a prepared meal or go to some mom and pop place that gives a shit, you're gonna get fuck you food from someone being paid a poverty wage to slop together utility-tier ingredients because screwing over the customer and the worker is what makes rich people more money.

You really hit the nail on the head here. And you're absolutely right about the perfection of fast food in Japan. Well... don't order the fried chicken... but, most other things.
