McDonald’s is Losing So Much Money it Stopped Telling Us How Much
Fast food giant loses 11 months straight
Latest News
Over the past year, I’ve shared with you the continued decline of America’s most popular fast food giant. We’ve talked about the mass closing of McDonald’s locations, the attempts by the company to trick customers into thinking that it was ‘going natural,’ and we’ve even talked about how some economists predict an ultimate demise.
And now, as people continue to choose real food instead of plastic-filled junk, McDonald’s has publicly declared an answer: it will completely stop telling us how much it loses in profits each month. Quite an amazing solution, huh?
As Bloomberg reports in an article entitled “McDonald’s to Stop Reporting Monthly Same-Store Sales Data,” the move has come after 11 straight months of declining sales. Specifically, the fast food titan has even been forced to close more than 700 stores. Meanwhile, the sales of organic food continue to boom. It’s part of the new health paradigm that millions around the world continue to adapt — a system in which real, organic food reigns supreme.
And there’s no place for McDonald’s food in this paradigm, as we have seen by so many individuals around the world rejecting the chain at astounding rates. As Slate reports:
“Every month, McDonald’s announces how much sales have grown (or fallen) at restaurants open at least 13 months in its various market segments and across the globe. Lately, those figures have been nothing but dreadful. As of April, McDonald’s global same-store sales had shrunk for 11 consecutive months while its U.S. numbers had either declined or stayed largely flat.”
Time and time again we find that major corporations and even government organizations would rather ‘turn off’ their reporting and accountability than actually make real strides towards solving the issue at hand. From the EPA just ‘turning off’ the radiation counters following Fukushima, to the plant operating company TEPCO deciding to hide the true radioactive contamination reports. Isn’t it time that McDonald’s changes its game before even more people decide that they won’t be eating junk for any longer?
Do you still eat McDonald’s? Let us know in the comments if you think this fast food giant will survive through the ever-expanding health food movement.

Please name one McDonald’s competitor that reports sales monthly. C’mon, we’re waiting. “Natural health” authorities should not be allowed to report on business, which this guy doesn’t understand in the least.
Mcdonald’s are closing down in mass because people are awake! Nobody wants poisonous genetically modified food! If Mcdonald’s was to change this then they would get their business back! But as long as they use GMO the American citizens are going else where!
Haven’t had any since 1967, hope the trend continues! I hope Russia sends the company packing along with other countries like Bolivia. Burn in hell golden arches.
Bravo my compatriot/friend…
Bodybuilders don’t eat rubbish. Just the thought of it nauseates me!
I decided to try their new Sirloin Burger advertised as Big and Juicy. It is big but it ain’t juicy and was barely warm. I tried all three but not very good quality and the bun wasn’t warm either. I also noticed that their sausage biscuits are tasteless. They use to be good. I love their coffee and unsweet tea.
I feel like this article was written by a total douche bag.
I’ve never understood the fast food chain hate. You don’t like it, don’t go.
It’s like porn. You don’t like getting off to plastic people having sex, don’t watch it.
It’s not like there are men grouping together demanding better pay, working conditions and an end to fake breasts.
Even though I am ALL about eating the best nutrition in a daily diet, to rally against milkshakes and candy bars seems like a waste of time.
Plus, what the decline of fast food chains symbolize to me is the widening of massive American poverty.
When a fast food chains closes in poor neighborhoods, to me it’s a sign how horribly low that area has become. Poor urban areas aren’t having organic food stores build nor able to afford organic food store prices. Some of these neighborhoods don’t even have official grocery stores, rather bodegas where they can find a mixture of barely there fruits and vegetables.
So, I seriously don’t get the happy dance here about the death of McDonald’s… Just the aroma of another douche bag who is short sighted and probably has never taken a noble stance against real good and freaky porn! Lol
I stopped about 3 years ago.
Someone still eats at McPoison?
We stopped eating McDonald’s and all fast foods about 4 years ago. We got sick and tired of being sick and tired.
I stopped eating at MacDonald’s when the hamburgers were 15 cents each…. I thought that the little brown cardboard round between the two layers of snot bread were not worth the 15 cents and I was very very poor…. I thought that my 15 cents would be better spent buying a fresh beet at the grocery store…..
I wish the heck that everybody else had seen it the way I did… there would be a lot more vital healthy people out there today.
I have stopped eating Macgdonals for ever and I have affected some other chain Corporations because the greed and cover up to stand for the consumers, and Hilary wont be in Office with my help
definitely I Am working to spread the word about her ignorance in our kitchens the soul of our foundation HOME
I gave up all processed food, fast food and processed sugar. Have never felt better. Now I eat real food; organic, free range, etc. Will never touch anything McD again. If the only way to do “fast food” is by creating franken-food then the industry is doomed. A complete paradigm shift is required.
I hope the trend continues.
“…. if you think this fast food giant will survive …”, well, it may or might, but without my patronage. I am cooking my own food. I know, most of the time, where it comes form, and what’s in it. Gone, and going the healthy way, for a good part, thanks to your excellent articles, videos, and reports.
In 1999 Mac and Don’s came out with there new steak sandwich. So as we were traveling through WV and my buddies were hungry, and wanting to stop at Mac’s, I thought I’d try a couple. The first one made a mess, with oil all over me and the van. It tasted like oil. I thought the 2nd one couldn’t be that bad, well I was wrong! Worse. I already hated Mac’s because of all the whining for there shitty Happy Meal, which usually resulted in a mess in the car, and broken toys by the time we’d get home. This is years before I found out of all the shit they really put into there garbage. LOL I was years ahead of the curve! I’d rather eat Ming’s Rat Shit burgers before I’d eat at Mac and Don’s!
