yeah the cups really were small. that wasted ketchup a lot.
 
Free sachets are wasteful too. People throw away free sachets in the bin. When I was in Dehradun some years ago they had a sort of donation box urging people to put their unused sachets in it.
What will you pour the ketchup from the bottle into? Its not like they are providing plates...
 
From what I understand the transparent box for dropping in unused sachets are present in all outlets.
In ANY case. One sachet per burger is idiocy. It should be at least two. But then I guess they know how small and puny their burgers are so one is probably enough for most.
 
I do agree that I usually get 3-4 sachets of ketchup per burger and open them all before starting to eat. In the end, I am probably left with one unused depending upon how I ate the burger. Is it wastage? Yes. But do I believe that McDonald's India is super efficient in the entire process of delivering that burger to my tray? No.

Directly on to the burger? What do people do with sachets? Either they empty the sachet right on the burger or on the paper over the tray?

I am not sure why they cannot just have bottles of ketchup on each table.

This should solve the problem they've mentioned ..or the ketchup taps they used to have earlier.
Dominoes and pizza hut and kfc still have that donation boxes where you can deposit leftover packets and Ive used those regularly. But looks like McD took the easy way out and started charging for sauce. But IMO for the price they charge for crappy burgers and shitty service (at busy outlets only) ..I think they can afford two packets minimum for every customer. :o
Heck ..they even can add ads on that ketcup bottle and recover the costs of ketchup used!
