Discussion Mcdonalds...

[Smilla]

I only like their breakfast sandwiches, and even then only rarely.

For some reason their food tastes bland to me. I really love Wendy's....they had this amazing ghost pepper chicken sandwich that I loved, was addictive. Sadly it was taken off the menu.

McDonald's has an app where they have 'good' deals every week. Save a couple bucks. I am not a big fan of McDonald's menu though so I deleted the app. Getting large fries for $1 got tiring after a week of eating the same thing over and over again. :P

Now I want Wendy's.

Good thing I don't go to Mickey D's for the atmosphere. I went to one of the ones by me that I go to sometimes yesterday. It's the first time I've been there since they remodeled the inside this summer and it's absolutely HORRIBLE inside ! I hate It ! and I won't be back to that one ! They did the same thing they do to every McDonald's they remodel... They got rid of half the seating, made the front counter 4 times smaller with only 2 registers with no space in between them so it's super crowded and stressful when there's lots of people trying to order. The inside is also very bright and too wide open for my taste ! And it reminds you more of a coffee shop than a McDonald's. Also they keep adding a second drive thru lane to all of these McDonald's which means if you go inside to eat there you'll be waiting a lot longer for your food.

I usually like to eat something different, to avoid getting tired of McDonald's. I eat fast food about once or twice a week, but as I'm getting older, trying to cut back. Risk of diabetes, heart problems, weight gain, you know trying to be healthy minded but I figure I'll indulge for a little while more as I've still got 4 years to go until 30.

I now prefer ordering the Big Mac without salt and pepper seasoning, to reduce my sodium intake, while still being able to enjoy my meal and not feel like i'll increase getting high blood pressure before 30.

I don't have the healthiest diet, but it sure is healthier and more varied than you'd think. I do eat fruits and vegetables as often as fast food too.

The Big Mac is the flagship product. But those certain wraps, and the all-day breakfast, have grown on me in recent years. Mmm.

I enjoy some Mc Donald'S now and then. I rarely order chips as they are too salty there. Sometimes I order a happy meal just for fun. Mostly I only eat 2 Cheeseburgers though

Has the Big Mac always had only one slice of cheese?

Interesting how the create your taste seemed to disappear quietly, must've been a big fail for corporate to mop up.

Gosh I hate capitalism and capitalists. I only love the brands.

I don't know. I was wondering if the filet-o-fish always only had a 1/2 a piece of cheese on it.

Design burgers on a kiosk with provided ingredients electronically. Trying to be a modern burger joint where customisation is the focus.

I'll let you in on past experience secret: "it's because the poor staff are moving too darn fast, and the pressure is as bad if not worse than a commercial kitchen/proper fine dining restaurant.
Strangely, nothing ever changes and the system never seems to be "fixed" to make life easier for all, because let's face it, staff come and go.

i used to have that mindset too. Nowadays I feel nothing but sympathy and respect for them.

Sympathy/Respect for who?
The employees?(I respect anyone who works)
Sympathy though, No I don't have sympathy, if You can't get peoples orders Right then give the jobs who people who can.
Chikfila has never messed up my order, and the food always is served the same & employees are polite. . McDonald's on the other hand. . .

I respect your opinion and wish to agree to disagree. Take care

They rarely have it nowadays, but I like the McRib. It comes back sometimes for a limited amount of time.

 

[Taylored]

I remember the older design they used in Mcdonalds It was amazing. Always got Chicken Nuggets with sauce and fries and apples in my kids meal.

 

[samhelloall9]

How'd about them plastic straws eventually being replaced by something Eco friendly? Hasn't that been making the rounds in the news this year.
Personally, I'm not one for eco friendly things. As the Professor would say in Futurama "I came down with a searing case of who-gives-a-crap!" Lol what a contagious disease.

Wise words

I just got back from another McDonald's that was remodeled since the last time I was there. They added a double drive thru and turned the inside into a coffee shop like atmosphere. They also added something I have never seen before... You can now order and pay on your own without going to the counter.

 

[Deutschv2]

Cheeseburgers + fries there are insane

 

[mattwitt]

Picture of one of the Mickey D's by where I live that has a 20ft. tall slide. One of the idiots working there told me from his own personal experience that you slide down the slide a lot faster if your sitting on a food tray lmao !

I have not been a fan of McDonalds for quite some time. When I use to eat McDonalds though I enjoyed a double QPC. I stopped eating it due to sodium content.

I did the test before also I got a double cheeseburger and let it out for 3 months. It did not change at all... No mold nothing looked just like when I bought it, but I didnt eat it at that point. I wonder if it would have made me sick if I ate it.

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

I eat McD's too often because it's right around the corner and cheap. It's way too convenient for a quick drive-thru run. However I am getting sick to death of them not actually having anything to serve up. It used to be just the ice cream machine was always broken, now it's that and like half the time the soda machine doesn't even work. The other day they didn't even have burgers. I left because I didn't want to eat napkins and a plastic straw (probably the only 2 items they actually had). I usually get a Big Mac/fries, or chicken nuggets with honey mustard, assuming the restaurant is actually operating as intended.

 

[Iwant2sleepforever]

The only thing I get at macdonalds is usually a triple cheeseburger without the bun. I'm on a low carb(keto) diet and I don't think anything else there is really worth it if I don't take off the bun. I miss Big Macs but those are 75% bread so not really worth the cost.

 

[mattwitt]

I was at the drive thru today and someone was mad at the person in the car ahead of me and pulled up right next to their van and said something to them and threw something at them through their passenger side window that was down. Then when they drove away the person in front of me drove out of line and started to follow that person. lol I assume the person was mad to begin with because the person they were mad at was probably being a slow idiot when ordering.

Every time I go to McDonald's I get pissed off at someone or something.
