McDonalds bacon cheese fries: not worth it

[Craig234]

New item, priced around $4.

Looks very overpriced - but try it once to see. It is.

It's a not-large order of the basic fries with some bad cheese sauce and a few bacon bits on it.

Overpriced, not worth it at all. Not sure what they're thinking adding that as an expensive option.

What did you expect, it was McDonalds.

That sounds disgusting. McDonald's fries only go well with two toppings - ketchup and a vanilla shake.

Yes and McDonalds is the one worst tasting restaurant out there.

Doesn't sound the least bit "disgusting" (you've never had chili cheese fries?), and McDonald's has some pretty consistently decent fries. Still, it sounds pricey, and not hard to imagine McD's blowing it by doing nothing more than glopping some Cheeze Whiz and bacon bits onto their fries.

McDonald's fries are good (not best ever or anything, but come on their french fries, anyone claiming they don't like McD's fries is a fucking liar).

Agreed (about it sounding overpriced and being weak ass buster shit). Personally, I hate that shitty liquified ass juice they try to claim is cheese.

Mind you, Cheez Whiz has its place... "Whiz wit"

That looks like someone ate it once already.

Ya, I wasn't criticizing the base fries as bad French Fries.

Rather, I was surprised they did something so weak for perhaps their signature item - many think McDonalds has the best fast food fries.

I didn't take it as you were (based on your description, I'd agree, I think they're trying to mimic animal style/chili cheese/bacon cheese fries that other places have, only you know in about the worst way possible), rather the two other comments and in before the ATOT "<insert popular food place> is the most disgusting place ever, especially the <insert popular food item that assholes claim they don't like/eat>" people. I've encountered some people (not sure if any on here) that claim McD's fries are so bad that they refuse to eat them ever. And these are people that claim they eat french fries and potatoes to excessive amounts.

Which those two people aren't really even saying their fries are crap, but this is usually how these discussions goes. It gets stupid pretty quick sometimes.

Come to think of it, I haven't had any french fries or chips in a while now. Also they are the unhealthiest ways to eat potatoes as well.

Really? You need to single out the bacon fries instead of pretty much anything else on the menu? I suppose a case could be made about a couple of items on the dollar menu being "worth it". As long as you overlook the taste and the shortening of lifespan that comes from eating it some of those items provide a decent value for the price. Absolutely nothing on the regular menu is "worth it", there's no need to single out the bacon fries for special attention.

It's not a post about all of McDonalds food or fast food in general or processed food - it's a post about one new item on the menu. There aren't many.

You sure called that one.
