Washington, D.C. native Joseph Lamour is a lover of food: its past, its present and the science behind it. With food, you can bring opposites together to form a truly marvelous combination, and he strives to take that sentiment to heart in all that he does.
McDonald’s says a beefier burger is well on the way. During a Q1 earnings call on April 30, McDonald’s CFO Ian Borden said, “our team of chefs from around the world have created a larger, satiating burger.” The multi-national burger chain — which has more than 14,000 locations in the U.S. — will be testing it in select markets later this year. Borden said the test is to ensure the burger “has universal appeal before scaling it across the globe.” McDonald’s declined TODAY.
On the earnings call, Borden said McDonald’s has rolled out the initiative at 80% of restaurants globally, including 100% of locations stateside. The news of a bigger burger comes as CNBC reports consumers are reconsidering eating at fast food establishments like McDonald’s and others as prices continue to climb. “It is clear that broad-based consumer pressures persist around the world,” said Chris Kempczinski, McDonald’s CEO, on the earnings call.
