“How am I going to mix 60 ml of every single soda into one cup to create one SuperDrink.” said a Facebook comment. “This is a tremendous loss.”
The fast-food chain told franchisees that it would retire self-serve drink stations by 2032, In place of the stations, employees will use automated beverage systems to fill drinks and customers must ask for refills at the counter.
Beverage refills will still be available for free “at the discretion of individual restaurant owner/operators,” the company told Business Insider.
“It’s a end of a era,” wrote one commenter. “When I’m old I’ll be like kids in my day you used to be able to go to McD*n*ld’s and serve your own drinks and refill them as many times as you wanted.”
OP’s note: Although this article doesn’t mention it, it’s likely other fast food places will follow suit.
