About 6-8 years ago, McDonald's had a line of like, "gourmet" burgers that came with grilled onions on them and big leafs of Romaine lettuce, those things were delicious but they discontinued them after only like, six months. For a while afterward I would order grilled onions on a regular quarter pounder but one day they said they didn't do that anymore either.
I'm still not over Taco Bell discontinuing the Quesarito. One day when I tried to order it, they told me you could only get it through the app anymore, but I hate installing apps for every little thing so I didn't bother. I occasionally ordered through the website and was able to get it there but it eventually disappeared altogether.
Then one day I spotted the chipotle ranch grilled chicken burrito on the value menu and I got hooked on those, but that also disappeared recently. The chicken enchilada burrito that replaced it is a banger, though, and surprisingly cheap.
And before anyone calls me a shill, I'll say I fucking hate how everything else on their menu is now like $6 or more unless you order it as a combo.
IMO, combos shouldn't be more than 20% cheaper than ordering items a la carte. Like, it shouldn't be legal to price things that way. It's just ridiculous that you get ripped off unless you order like, 500 more calories worth of food than you should really be eating in a single meal.
The chicken enchilada combo box is fucking stupid because of how much food comes in it, and the stacker taco is garbage. They stuff that thing with so many stale, rock hard chips that it's like eating glass.
The black bean quesorito was my favorite. I even (regrettably) installed the app for it. I've since abandoned it, there's just no reason for me to use it anymore.
