thanks for the cravings

I haven't had luck doing that before, but maybe you'll run into the right person... I always say "double cheeseburger, plain, plus Big Mac sauce" and get shot down because "Big Mac sauce is only for Big Macs".

Thats when you say, "well then my money is only for Wendy's!" and walk out.
 
The Big & Tasty burger is way too nice. I think we only have it in the UK (?) but it's goooood.
Still not a patch on Burger King though, even if they do sell Micro Burgers (TM).

I miss the arch deluxe. You could get it with bacon, and it had awesome sauce.

Having to feed a random McD's craving I picked up a Big Mac. Is it just me or is the Big Mac a lot smaller than what it used to be? I haven't been to Mcdonalds in a long time, have all of their burgers shrunk also?

Not having this....how you say....random Mc'Ds craving....I wouldn't know. 🙂
 
They are killing the Super Size option now because of the film Super Size Me. A guy eats nothing but McDonalds for 45 days and has to take the super size option if they offer. He gains 25 pounds, his cholesterol goes through the roof and his liver is damaged. McDonalds is sh*t food. I have not touched it in over 10 years and I never will again.

The fries smell unnaturally bad, like they purposefully add chemicals to make them stank up the room. Nothing makes me want to vomit more than getting on a subway car and smelling McStank. How the hell a small bag of fries can create an overpowering stench in an entire NYC subway car is beyond me.

My only hope is that after the last tobacco company is shut down the heath freaks go after and close down McDonalds.

Why? Because people can't control themselves?

So I don't have to smell it 😛 Seriously, I would rather smell cigarette smoke than McDonalds fries.
 
eat at burgerville.. they use actual beef from cattle which have not been subjected to growth hormones or been given leftover meat from dead cows. They are all natural.

The Big Mac is def. smaller. It's pathetic that the double cheeseburger is only $1 and contains approx. 4 times the meat.

oh give me a break you idiot. it's the same patty

Yep. When I worked at McDonald's as a kid there were only 2 different sized patties, one for the Quarter Pounder and one for everthing else.

The Arch Deluxe was good while they still had that.

Did you know that McD's in Canada sells Pizza?

When SuperWalmarts first started opening with McDonalds in them, those McDonalds had pizza and hotdogs. McDonalds in Las Vegas used to serve pizza and hotdogs as well.
