Jollibee phases out Yum Burger

“I’m sorry sir, Yum Burger meal is not available you can try our Yum with cheese.” That’s fairly routinary in Jollibee outlets I visited after the New Year.

It’s unfortunate that Jollibee has to phase out their Yum Burger line of burgers. I am a big fan of Jollibee’s and I make it to a point to eat there whenever I’m faced with fastfood choice. I’d pick Jollibee everytime if I have to choose between it and McDonald’s.

Is is this a ploy to force consumers to spend more? Hell, why can’t they have Yum burgers if they can offer the same - only with cheese. Maybe they’ve done some study where customers prefer the one with cheese than the plain one. Oh sure, it’s just like saying that survey says most people think GMA didn’t cheat in the last presidential election.

Another thing that pisses me off is that when I decide to order something cheaper, say, pies, I get the same response, “it’s not available at the moment”. A classic example of Parokya ni Edgar’s “Ordertaker” song - meron ngang menu, wala namang ma-order.
