We all have about 22,000 genes and sometimes we share enough genes with our family to be an almost identical copy of them. Although there may be 50 years between the 2 photos, their faces look the same thanks to the magic of these genes. There are some people who are carbon copies of their relatives, confirmed by their photos that simply blow us away.
Bright Side would like to share with you just how cool our genes can be with some exceptional photos we found.
1. “My mom and sister, both at age 6”
2. “My mom (left) age 4 in 1971. Me (right) age 4 in 2001. I see why people say we look alike.”
3. Grandmother 1941 and granddaughter 1999, same genes
4. “Me, 1992. Mom, 1954.”
5. “Here’s me and my fraternal twin.”
6. “Me on the left (circa ’90s, Canada) and my grand-dad (circa ’40s, Ireland).”
7. “My old man and me at the same age, 35 years apart.”
8. “Me in 1971 and my son in 1994”
9. “My mother at age 21 (L) and me at age 27.”
10. “My father, age 24 in 1951. And 24-year-old me.”
11. “I always knew that my mom and sister looked alike, but seeing them side by side is uncanny.”
12. “My brother (2016) and my grandfather (1948)”
13. “I’ve been told a lot that I look like my Finnish grandma.”
14. “My dad 1958… Me 1988.”

McDonald’s Introduces $5 Meal Deal Hoping to Regain Customers
McDonald’s was criticized earlier this year for its high prices when a receipt from a Connecticut restaurant went viral. Worse, a $18 Big Mac combo made things even worse.
This started a discussion on how much a fast food meal should reasonably cost.
According to reports, the cost of fast food increased by around 28% between 2019 and 2023. Although there are a number of reasons for this rise, one thing is certain: customers are getting impatient.
During an earnings call, McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski stated, “Eating at home has become more affordable.” “That low-income consumer is undoubtedly the front line of battle.”
A new $5 lunch offer is what McDonald’s wants to launch in an attempt to win back customers.
The Wall Street Journal reports that this $5 offer will come with fries, a choice drink, four pieces of chicken nuggets, and a McChicken or McDouble. Commencing on June 25th, the campaign is expected to run for around one month.
Even if the transaction hasn’t begun, some clients are still dubious.
“Meal for $5 for just a month? Thank you, but no! Do you intend to entice us in the hopes that we will stay and pay hefty fees? Not at all!
“McDonald’s $5 Meal Deal is the answer to inflation,” the company said.
The McChicken was once available for just $1 on the menu. The $1 menu ought to be reinstated.
In an April call, Kempczinski said, “Consumers continue to be more discerning with their spending as they face elevated prices in daily expenses, putting pressure on the industry.” It is imperative that we prioritize cost for our clientele.
Would you rather eat at home or at another restaurant over a $5 meal bargain at McDonald’s? Post your ideas in the comments section below.
