If I’m craving a good burger, the only way McDonalds is a consideration is if I simply have no other options readily available.

I quit McDonalds 20 years or so ago when they agreed to discontinue using a meat based flavoring in the French fries, because the vegans were upset

This is a good thing. The beef is probably the only real thing McDonalds has on the menu

Nothing wrong with eating the burger if you throw the bun away and don’t drink a coke with it.

One McDonald's franchise owner, Scott Rodrick, is considering higher menu prices and reduced hours, saying that layoffs are the "last thing" he is considering.

Yea, that is definitely what people need.

I thought it was beef tallow that they stopped using, and it was mainly because of complaints from Hindus.

I wish they would drop seed oils and go back to natural oils and using animal fats.

Just to see, I ordered a biscuit, saved it & then got a regular burger. Took both patties out, side by side, & the biscuit was thicker, not by much, & the burger was a little bit wider....but not by much.

I'd probably eat it more than once on a blue moon if they would use actual food. I can taste the difference in quality between McD's and other places. It just is not appealing to me anymore.

McDonald’s gives me absolutely horrible fast food “post nut clarity”

Maybe once every 6 months I’ll eat it, and think it’s a great idea and immediately feel like shite after it’s been eaten and then swear it off for a few months

If they ever stopped selling the sausage and egg McMuffin I'd never walk in that place again.

Unless you're going back down in price while beefing up this burger, you'll continue on the slow death spiral the brand has been on since the early 2000s.

I don't really have issues with McDonald's making me feel bad, but I just order two of the regular standard burger like what comes in kids meals. I don't even get the fries. And I don't get cheese on it.

I can't really think of any food that makes me feel bad.

I rarely eat McDonalds because when I am forced to, I literally can feel my body shutting down. I get sleepy and my body aches.
wtf are they putting in that food?

I can understand not eating fast food but people who act like they die and can’t handle eating a cheeseburger are so queer.

Anybody who has been cooking can make a burger far and away better than anything produced by a fast-food chain. If you want fast food, there are some okay enough burgers. If I want a good burger, I'm going to make it myself or go to Five Guys.



Don’t disagree with you but when on the road everyday, it’s hard to cook a better burger or find better burger. You are lucky to find a McDonald’s in Church Point or Gueydan.

Only good thing about McDonald’s is that they are like Starbucks, not really good but very consistent. People like consistent.

Mcdonald's double cheeseburger off the value menu is a good fast food alternative

Same here. I ordered one last week, first time in probably 10 years. For some reason, it wasn't as good. Seemed like the patties were smaller too.
