This article that I had came across at yahoo.com had caught my attention because having to pay extra for additional nuggets sauce will affect countless of people. The fast food chain will charge 30 cents for additional nugget sauce requested upon of what they are given. The trial had started on Monday, 25 June in 30 McDonald’s restaurants including Bishan Junction 8, Bugis Junction and many more. McDonald’s Singapore communications manager, Kevin Lim, told Yahoo! that McDonald’s had come up with such an idea to prevent food wastage.
In the trial, a free unit of nugget sauce will be given to the customer upon purchase of sandwich or fries, two units for purchasing a six-piece nuggets, three or four packets for purchasing nine-piece and 20-piece nuggets and the subsequent nugget sauce requested will be charged to the customer.
This trial had caused a mixed reaction among Singaporeans. Some think that they have already paid for their food and providing sauces should be part of McDonald’s service while some agreed to the trail as they think it is a good move to prevent wastage.
In conclusion, I think that the trial implemented will cause more unhappiness than willingness among Singaporeans as it comes to monetary issue. I think that McDonald’s shouldn’t come up with such a plan because I believe that nugget sauce being the favourite among many Singaporeans will finish the sauce. I disagree to what McDonald’s are doing as it is quite costly to pay 30 cents for extra nugget sauce. I hope that McDonald’s will stop the trial after some time knowing that it have cause many unhappiness among Singaporeans.
