"McDonald’s is upgrading its burgers."

"The upgrades apply to the Big Mac and the McDouble burger as well as the classic cheeseburger, double cheeseburger and hamburger."

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I guess I will find out on Thursday on whether these "upgrades" are worthy.

"Where immigrants come from and where they go after reaching the US.

"Meanwhile, immigration from other countries, including India and China, has been on the rise, according to MPI."

How is this an upgrade?

On a side note, anyone remember a few years back when the BM came in 3 different sizes? Why did they take this away?
