Hi

I have always been thankful for the brail on the drink cup lids at
McDonalds. However I was vastly disappointed to find the new super sized
coffee cup lids only had print. I E-Mailed McDonalds and they said they
would forward my complaint to the proper department but nothing has change
on the lids of the coffee cups.
