    It’s too late, McDonald’s screwed themselves on that by allowing the machine company to play stupid games. I don’t see McDonald’s as a place to go for ice cream, haven’t for literally decades, and I don’t know anyone who does.

    I hope the temporary kickbacks they got were worth it.

      McDonald corporation and their franchises are two separate entities. The corporation makes money no matter what. Its the franchises who suffer.

      I’m sure the contractor made out like bandits and is friends with the board of corporate so it’s totally fine since it’s the franchisees[sic] who are responsible for fixing it.

          I tought it was a global thing.

          It’s very hard to find it mentioned online outside of the Italian McDonald’s branch. There is a chance it might be local to my country.

      They ended their exclusivity contract with the ice cream machine maker a few years back. So they can use other machines than the shitty ones.
