[nfb-talk] Something I've noticed!

[Misty Dawn Bradley]

None of the McDonalds restaurants I have been to have Braille lids any more, 
and I have not seen Braille on cups since I was a child in the 1990's, but 
the cup lids still have raised letters on them, so if you know how to read 
print letters by touch, you can read the raised letters on the cup. I 
noticed this the other day when I was at McDonalds, because they had raised 
lettering saying, "diet," "tea," and "other." They also have a large raised 
letter M on the cup lids now.
I like the idea of Braille menus though.

It still gets braille out there.  Yes, braille menus would be great.
However, when you are with a group and have several drinks, it'ns nice to be
able to tell with out drinking a little of it, if it is a diet drink, tea or
whatever.

Good afternoon everyone,

    If McDonnald's no longer puts Braille on beverage cups good for them!
It's nothing more than a gimmick and of no real use to the blind. Mary and I
would prefer Braille menus over Braille on our beverage cups any day.
