A Sometimes Food

Back when I worked there as a teenager, I liked to make big macs but with sausage and egg instead of the normal two beef patties.

Now that they use allegedly fresh beef, the quarter pounder with cheese is actually better than the Wendy's 1/4 lb single.

Wendy's hamburger meat hasn't been very good for a while.

That's my Hot Take for the day.

Bacon sucks and I hate it, bacon is the most overpowering flavor and it dominates any food it’s in. I want to taste the cheese and the burger and the tomato, and but all you get is bacon. Just the worst.

You’re both wrong which is why the best burger at Wendy’s is the Big Bacon Classic which has a normal amount of bacon, along with lettuce tomato onion and pickles.

I hate it when fast food places make the giant 1500 calorie burgers weird picky eater poo poo like stacks of beef bacon cheese and burger sauce with no veggies. I can be a fat gently caress with no regard for my health and still appreciate the texture and contrast of some raw onion.

To add some McDonald’s content for the McDonalds thread, they always have had a hell of time pulling off this type of basic classic American burger. Closest thing on the menu is maybe a Deluxe Quarter Pounder and the proportions are just all off. Too much mayo and too wilty of lettuce.

Tried the double Big Mac tonight. It was basically a big mac but harder to eat and fell apart. Maybe that was due to the careless construction of my particular sandwich. Taste wise it was exactly like a regular big mac. Probably won't get one again but it wasn't bad. I think the ideal big mac would be with 1/4 pound patties.

Added bacon to a mcdouble and it transcended what could reasonably be expected for a few bucks worth of fast food.

I braved disease to get one the other day because I was tired of eating things at home, and yeah. I thought it was "fine." Mine also fell apart in transit or something and I think the sauce ratio was a little off. But fine.

The Big Mac experience is totally ruined by the pile of shredded lettuce. The DBL 1/4 Pounder is the superior burg.

Once I got ripped and ordered 2 McDoubles, no pickle, add Mac Sauce, and a large Fries and the total was exactly 4.20 and me and the cashier both said “sick” at the same time.

Only improved by buying two, removing the top bun and pickles of one, for a bootleg half pounder with the ideal proportion of bread and pickles. If you can be bothered, remove the pickles from the top one, so the remaining pickles are in the very centre of the burger.

Southeast Asian continental McDonalds is the final frontier of wild poo poo.

I've been meaning to post this for a while from McDonalds Vietnam.

What is the LD50 on kiwifruit because that looks like its approaching it for immunocompromised people.


Beef, egg, teriatki sauce and crisp onion. Badass.

An actual respectable meal, from McDonalds. Who'd have ever imagined this?


And served under the "Meals for Babies" category heading?

I'm pretty sure that could be delicious, with the extreme wildcard being the quality of cheese available at a Thai McDonalds. But the concept seems sound.

McDonalds should really have some faith in the American public and sell their actual international menu in the USA somewhere. Like, I get they can't scale that to every franchisee in Buttfuck, Indiana but why not have a Taco Bell Cantina sort of place in Vegas and big cities? Put some beer on tap to evoke Euro McDonalds, let me get that Indian samosa burger thing or some crazy Thai monstrosity like above, etc.

My hometown's only fast food place is a McDonalds that opened when I was a teen, so it was operated by greasy high school boys who knew everyone. Once one of the kid's notoriously drunk/angry dads went through the drive-thru and they wrapped his single cheeseburger with oh, about 50 wrappers. He just kept unwrapping and unwrapping getting more and more pissed. The kid definitely got severely beaten but it was a very good story to pass around town.

Relevant question: Did they change the Big Mac sauce recipe? I had one for the first time in years and the sauce was SO sweet, completely ruined the sandwich.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
The Teriyaki burger in Japan is great. They had a lot of other things on the menu that I wanted to try but even for me eating multiple meals at Japan in McDonalds seemed a bit much.

I haven't had McDonalds breakfast in a while. I just looked at the online menu.

They have a big breakfast with hotcakes AND STEAK?!!!!

$5.19 gets you:

Scrambled eggs
biscuit
hash brown

That's one of the best deals in the fast food industry.

I haven't had their hotcakes in at least 20 years and I still think about them. They were sweet and tender, drenched in fake butter and drowned in fake maple syrup and so, so goddamn good.

I'm afraid if I slip even once I'll be back on the wagon, just getting McDonald hotcakes every drat day of the week...

If they sold them in a legit stacks I might go crazy.

Lmao what? I get a big breakfast with hot cakes probably 1-2 a month. I’m sorry but they are just the best pancakes. I could never make them as sweet and buttery at home.

I sub square egg out for a round McMuffin egg and put it and the sausage on the biscuit and eat the sandwhich while the butter and syrup soak into my hot cakes.

If I’m stoned I wolf down the hot crispy hashbrown immediately. If Not then I leave it for last and pick it into tiny bits to savor the crispiness

I just found out recently that you can order a double Big Mac, they just double up the patties. But it fixes the meat/bread ratio and makes it the real sizable, filling sandwich that a Big Mac should be. Let’s be real, the regular Big Mac is pathetic as their flagship burger, it shouldn’t leave you hungry. And I’m a guy that gets full off a small fry and McChicken, not some hefty ubergoon. But I appreciate getting a big sandwich that I can barely finish but still being on the right side of stuffed every now and then and the regular Big Mac doesn’t do it for me.

e: I just now saw the post on the last page also making light of the existence of the double Big Mac.
