Cutting The Cheese
Looks like you'll be getting less cheese for your cheese at Mickey D's.
McDonald's is weighing whether to yank the popular double cheeseburger from its Dollar Menu because of the high cost of cheese.
Noooooooo!
Some franchises are reportedly selling the double-cheeseburger with one slice of cheese instead of two and calling it a "double hamburger with cheese."
Blasphemy!!!!!
Other franchises have replaced the double cheeseburger on the Dollar Menu with a double hamburger or have raised the price up to $1.10.
If you can't spring the extra few cents, just bring the burger home and put your own cheese on the burger!
McDonald's may also expand its mid-range menu - with food selling for $1.30 to $2 - to keep budget-conscious customers from abandoning the joint altogether.
"We know customers are facing tough times in this economy," said head honcho Don Thompson.
They're so thoughtful!
Times are tough, but you'll still be able to shovel junk into your bods!

Thank God for the magic of the Internet!
This Is Not A Joke
it's NOT McDonalds w/out the use of their gov'ment cheese. If I put my own Kraft or Velveeta singles it totally defeats the purpose of Mickey D's. They need to quit being so damn cheap.
5th?
woohooo!!!!!!!!!
they hook it up with the doubles.
Eigth!
you can't get a double cheeseburger in new york for a dollar, it costs at least 1.35 i think maybe even more. california has more competition with carls jr. and in and out and better places than mickey d's. but in new york we've been screwed out of the double for years.
McD's nastttyyy. cut back on the whole menu and do north america a favour. and wtf cheese doesnt cost a lot.
getting rid of the trans fat crap is going to do wonders already-leave the cheese,please
Actually, McDonald's was recently rated one of the top 10 healthiest restuarants. Not everybody gets a big mac!
they don't cut me a break when I order without cheese so why should they charge others for the cheese?? McD's is going down anyway,
Without the cheeseburger from its Dollar Menu anymore Perez is going to be one broke-ass MF
Bushiiit strikes again!!!
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE
How about cutting it from the menu because McDonald's is one of the reasons America is MORBIDLY OBESE, not to mention the fact that beef farming is one of the leading causes of global warming and eating meat is revolting? I'm just sayin…
hey those girls look very young;; perez are they sluts or ho,s please tell me because i don,t know;; but i do know that you would know
It's already been yanked from the dollar menu in NYC
Some, not all, of this economy talk is just a way for companies to raise their prices blaming it on higher food costs. It is bullshit, they want more profit in their pockets. Besides, McDonald's is gross , and after you watch that Spurlock movie Super Size Me, your thoughts change about McD's. Everyone should boycott McDonald's, it will kill you.
Yeah, with the increase in cheese prices, it probably costs them 12 cents to make a double cheeseburger instead of 8.
Perez you need to go vegetarian, taco bell is much better than McDonalds anyway!
Dude…..it's not even real cheese - It's just oil and crap. How do you justify raising the price due to the increasing price of dairy when that crap is NOT dairy???
I hope all McDonald's go out of business. They're destroying the planet.
tsk tsk
mcdolands is discuting anyways
and its bad for you.
who really NEEDS a dubble cheese buger?
Agh! Get rid of it already! That shit is way too greasy gotdamnit!!!!!!!!!!
yeah the double cheeseburger has been gone in alabama for a few months now…and some places took the mc chicken off too! theyre both like 1.75 now. LAMEEEEEEEE
eww I don't eat fast food so I don't care. yuck those Mickey d workers could be spittin in your food and handling your food with their dirty nose picking finger… you would never know. No thanks!
College students everywhere will have to go back to surviving on Ramen Noodles and cereal.
Perhaps you can make some loot by selling your cheese to them at discounted prices Perez.
Re: world –
It's Chloe and Chewybacca Kardashian(whatever)
its a sad day, oh well where's the side salad at
I am proud to say that I have NEVER eaten at McDonald's, Burger King, Carl's Jr., Jack in the Box, Sonics, etc. and I have a damn hot body (35-25-35).
.
Don't eat that garbage or you will look like Roseanne Barr.
Finally a set of buns in a picture that is bigger than Kim K's!
Double Cheeseburgers are 1.70 at our McDonald's…
everybody meet me at mr.chows
That is an evil, demented picture and the funniest damn thing…lolololol
Hey Piggy…
You know this is not Miley.
You are such a fucking tard
trying to initate some fake
billshit.

Mickey Dees is also
introducing a new pig burger.
Thank you Perez! for donating
the meat from your face and
back.
Oink Oink
:)
Man, fuck McD's. None of that shit is real food anyway. It's UNFOOD. Garbage. I should know, I used to work there years ago. You want a real double cheeseburger, go make one at home. Just slap a burger patty on one of those George Foreman grills and in like five minutes you have a well-done burger and you can put as many slices as of your own damn cheese you want and whatever else you want on it!
……..WELL, WELL….LOOKEE YONDER. McDONALDS ADDED THEM TWO KARDASHIAN SKANKS' I.Q.'s TOGETHER AND PUT THE TOTAL ON TOP OF THAT 'BIG MAC'!
……….SHORE MAKES ME LAUGH, CAUSE' MY I.Q. IS ALMOST 40 ALL BY MY LONESOME…HE HE HE……."IS OUR CHILDREN LEARNING?"
I'm so horrified. Looks like I won't make McDonalds my breakfast, lunch, and dinner any longer. Good greif….
what are you going to gourge on now perez you fat pig? I hope you choke on a burger
LI McDonalds 1.69 and 1.89 for double cheeseburgers. Its not on the $ menu.
The double cheeseburger has not been in the $1 menu for a LONG time here in NY! You cannot even get the McChicken at a lot of places for $1.00!
o hell no perez i love those double cheeseburgers bring back the cheese please
Poor Perez! we will be so skrooed… boo hoo we will have to gnaw our arms off.
I think McDonalds is a bunch of assholes. They won't even let you substitute ketch and must with mayo for free, so you have to ask for a mayo packet which is free, bullshit. Their Big Mac is almost the same as a double except 1 slice of cheese, stupid sauce, lettuce, 2 pickles, middle flat piece of bread, and seeds, yawn, but costs 1.5x as much. Sorry no one wants a double hamburger, then they will charge 20 to 30 cents a slice to add cheese, fuck that. Reducing it down to 1 slice, that sucks too. I could maybe handle a 10 cent increase, but if you are gonna raise it up every 6 months that's bs. The double cheeseburger being cheap is the ONLY reason I still even go there. They better think twice before they fuck with the last people still willing to eat their shit!
chloe is sooooo ugly! I would rather look at Rumer Willis. OK maybe not.
they should come out with meat free food before considering getting rid of CHEESE… wft!
ewww.
it has twice the cow flesh and nearly triple the calories of any regular meal!
go veg people. This s**t is nasty.
Supersize me…..! ACK! I just spat mah soda and mah last toof on my keyboared. Gone crayfish hunting and frogging.
Perez, you need to go to mah church. I can speak in tongues and my snakes can cure you…
Do people ACTUALLY call THAT CHEESE!!!! Yikes!!! NO WONDER NORTH AMERICANS ARE SOOOOOO FAT AND UNHEALTHY!!!!! HELLOOOOOOOOOOO?
we've still got it here in Arkansas, plus the McChicken, sausage mcmuffin, large sweet tea, 2 hash browns, medium fry and the parfait thing. I like the parfaits and the side salads are still a dollar but they don't have tomoatoes, only lettuce and carrots
Just a thought Americans–a side salad is also on the dollar menu. I'm just saying……
Oh the horror, first Perez loses his favorite jerk off material, Playgirl, now he's gonna lose the double cheese to stuff that fat hole of his.
just letting everyone know-
backing up Del…
mcDs is THE HEALTHIEST fast food restaurant in the nation and is doing more than you know to keep costs down and keep the planet in better shape.
there is a LEED certified restaurant opening up in Chicago in a week. Tell me what other restaurant is doing that (going green).
Uhmm there is a reason why Americans are the fattest fucks on this planet!! Poor people eating crappy ass food that has a million calories thanks to fast food joints. Shit is disgusting!
I do not eat McDonalds food but I love their Iced Coffee and Iced tea for that matter. I get an iced coffee there most mornings. Just last week I noticed a fancy new sign. It had all the extra charges for SAUCE on it. If you get a six piece chicken, you get 1 sauce..anymore sauce it like 25 cents..it goes on from there.
That is CRAP.
Gross, do all you people really eat McDonalds??? No wonder America is so fat. Get over it, who gives a shit if they use 1 slice of fake cheese or 2?? Might as well slather it on your ass!
Fail. The double cheeseburger is the most delicious thing on the menu
Why the fuck are you calling it Mickey D's?
lmfao, it's Maccy D's.
Mcdonalds burgers aren't made from cows anyway, they're made from soy, oil, and yellow dye #54
american are too fat anyways.
idiots
I'LL PAY MORE!!!
.
DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER IS MY FAVE!
.
PLEEEEEEEEAAAASSSSSE DON'T MESS WITH THE CHEESE TO MEAT TO BREAD RATIO!! ITS PERFECT!!
That's just like you Perez, thinking to put your own cheese on your burger when you get home! Sounds like you've been there, done that! Closeted eating disorder? You probably go to Subway too, order lots of veggies on your turkey sammy, get home and add a bunch of cheese, double the meat, smear it with mayo and dip it it ranch dressing. How's your diet treating you?
…..NEXT TIME I GO TO MICKEY-DEEES, I'M GONNA SIT ON THE HAMBURGLER'S LAP.
I'm hungry
Sucks for my hubby b/c he loves those double cheeseburgers
who's still eating that crap?
They're $1.29 here…
I used to be able to get a double cheeseburger, medium fries, and an ice water for lunch for just over $2…not anymore!
yo oh snap i just went 2 macdonalds and i recorded a dvd theres a 600 pound man eating a big mac little kids cursing in the play place oh snap theres ketchup on peoples butts the dvd includes 5 new macdonalds theme songsby jive records the dvd is coming out this fall check out my website yoburgersyum.com
NOOOOOO!!!!! That's bull shit!!! They need to cut some jobs, not cut the cheese!!! Why is the consumer having to pay more for less anymore!?!? BULL SHIT! I'll just go to Burger King instead from now on!!
WHY A PICTURE OF THE 2 PSEUDO CELEBS WITH THE MOSTEST GIGANTICEST COLLOSSUSSESSEST A$$ES AS EATING AT MCDONALDS?
Try moving to Alaska where its the $1.50 menu…
personally, i hate mcdonald.
There is as much suffering and death in a slice of cheese as there is in a piece of meat. McDonalds is an evil corporation that contributes to obesity, especially among African Americans and Latinos. This corporation is spreading its evil and murder all over the globe at an astonishing rate. Every dairy cow ends up in a slaughter house. Go vegan! Save the planet! Factory farming contributes to global warming more than any other single contributing factor.
That slice of cheese probably costs them two whole fucking cents.
Is that Kim Khardasian with her boobs hanging out again…???
I swear, she's got the Tourrette's Of The Boobs Syndrome. Turning those babies loose at the most inopportune moments.
Um….in ny I haven't seen the double cheese burger on the dollar menu for yearss….at least 4 or 5. I did notice that the other day there was only on slice if cheese on my cheeseburger..
Already yanked from some ORLANDO Mc Donald's. They sell for $1.49
TAKE IT HOME AND PUT YOUR OWN CHEESE ON IT. HA HA. YOU ARE SO GHETTO. YOU CAN TAKE THE GIRL OUT OF CUBA, BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE CUBA OUT OF THE GIRL.
:l-
In Australia a simple cheeseburger cost $2.00 & we have had the trans fat banned for ages - the chips taste crap now!!
That's the most utter crap I've ever heard. Mcdonalds is RAKING in the cash, and they can't afford an extra 10cents for a slice of cheese on every burger? my god, what is this world coming to O.o
quit bitching!!!! try living in alaska where everything is 10x more expensive than anywhere in the lower 48. Our gas is 4.50 to 4.75 a gallon. People here even have to pay for fuel to heat there homes during the winter….where it reaches upwards of negative 40degrees……..We dont have dollar menu's….there called 1.50 menus….. and its not uncommon to pay almost $10 for a value meal at any fast food chain…….
Well I guess the Kardashian's are a good choice for the picture. With their big butts I'm sure they cut the cheese right, left and sideways.
In England a Mcdonalds double cheeseburger costs about £1.19 which is approx $2.50 according to current exchange rate. When you guys talk about your dollar menu we also have a 99p menu which is like you guys paying $2.00 for a mcflurry, medium fries, medium drink, sundae etc….You can't really complain about the prices!!!
is that the kardashian sisters?
Re: Purty – I totally agree with you! The amount of soybeans that are fed to the cows to produce the meat McD's uses to fatten up the world could feed ALL the hungry people…
Re: GoVeg – ditto!
Being that the cost of cheese is so high at the moment, shouldn't that mean that the Double Cheeseburger is safe and sound? Cuz we all know that yellow slab of melted then resolidified plasticine isn't actually cheese. In fact, if the price of beef went up, the price of a Double Cheeseburger STILL wouldn't be affected…

that cake looks soooo coool!
Dang, I was wondering why they don't have double cheeseburger meals at my mcdonalds anymore.
It's sad when a few slices of cheese cost more than hamburger meat.
like they don't make enough money already to give us a free slice of cheese. bastards. i get nuggets anyway mmmmm
Glad i don't eat that shit.. i feel sorry for ya PErez… where are you going to fill now that greasy stomach?
That's cheap! Here in the UK, the double cheese burger is £1.20, so what? About $2? And a meal costs £3.50ish so about $7. Thank your lucky stars!
Oh well, I don't really care much because I don't get their food most of the time. However, I hope they keep their awesome yummy iced coffees at $2 for a large! Those things rock and are FULL of caffein and at least a buck cheaper than something from Starbucks!
So what? aren't americans fat enough? though I suppose the cheese lends some nutritional value, blahhh Micky Ds is gross
Wow! I'm so glad that I stocked up years ago! Few people realize the extended shelf life a lot of Mickey D's menu items have! My 4 year-old fries look just like I bought them yesterday! Happy Meal!
i can't believe this is in the news
i find it amazing that people still eat this shit
