Twitch streamer shocked over insanely cheap meal at Chinese McDonald\u2019s Korean Twitch streamer \u2018May5w\u2019 was broadcasting IRL in China with a group of friends when they came upon a McDonald\u2019s advertisement that left their jaws on the floor. The poster claimed that customers could nab an eye-popping deal of a bucket of chicken, four burgers, four drinks, fries, and pies for just ten dollars. \u201cLook at this! Oh my god!\u201d May\u2019s friend exclaimed. \u201cThis is only ten dollars! You get a bucket of chicken, four drinks, four burgers, fries, and pies? That\u2019s crazy cheap!\u201d A clip taken from May\u2019s stream went viral online, sparking a debate about the increasing cost of fast food in America versus the cheaper prices they\u2019re seeing overseas. \u201cJust got a large fry yesterday in America and it cost like $4.50. We get ripped off here tbh,\u201d one commenter wrote. \u201cAmerican here, and I will say there were times I craved McD\u2019s and the new prices have made me change my mind,\u201d another wrote. \u201cThere\u2019s one good positive for inflation.\u201d Others claim that McDonald\u2019s prices are so low in China due to the chain attempting to emulate the hype around KFC, one of the most popular fast food chains in the country. \u201cThe reason is because KFC is the best-selling fast food chain in China, and they want to emulate KFC to boost sales,\u201d a viewer posited.
