I'm more disappointed the 4 mcnuggets for a $1 was taken away.
At at least one local McD's for me (Atlantic City), they have taken the double cheeseburger to 1.99. McDouble still $1, so 1 piece of cheese seems to cost 99 cents. (Although I thought the patties might be a little smaller than a normal hamburger/cheeseburger, anyone confirm they are the same size?)
I had no problem with the 29 cent upcharge for a piece of cheese, but I don't see how I can justify an extra buck for a slice of American.
The loss of the 4 piece nuggets for $1 was also indeed a disappointment. It was always fun to see 4 nuggets = $1, 6 nuggets = $2.49.
