SNSUN Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Love it? Hate it? For me, it's a rare treat, but just lately I've become nearly addicted to their Breakfast Wrap, despite reading that it's more fattening than a Big Mac. What's your favourite menu item, and how often (if at all) do you feast here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Hate it, haven't eaten there for over 10 years now... used to eat there quite a lot. Even the smell repulses now thesedays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Used to be something I'd look forward to as a kid. Not anymore. The food is mank and my closest ATM is built into the wall of a McDonalds. Every time I go to draw money out, the smell knocks me sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buctootim Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Drove five miles out of my way on the way home from an overnight flight to get a MacDonalds breakfast. Sausage and egg muffins are worth it. Macdonalds gets a lot of bad press press but its marginally better than a lot of of other fast food like Burger King or KFC and no worse than a lot of ready meals you'd find in Tescos. Good choice as a rare treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey_saint Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 When I was a bit overweight, I used to eat it (although I preferred KFC) but as quite a few of the others have said, the smell just makes me sick; it's all the poorest meats, eggs, potatoes you'll ever find artificially altered and I try my best to completely avoid it these days.

Saint-scooby Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Egg McMuffin and a black coffee is my limit, thankfully my kids are not that keen on the place either. For some Mcdonalds is a part of their daily diet !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svetigpung Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 ****e food ****e company. We built a new MC building a few years ago and we were aloud to eat at much as we wanted for free on their grand opening day. I managed one big super duper meal and felt sick afterwards. Had to bin the secong one i had on my tray. As others said , I cant even stand the smell of the place since then. Dont mind their shakes , on a summers day.

capitalsaint Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 The McMuffin eggs will often contain shells, they don't care as long as they're made quickly, really unhygienic. The other eggs, in the breakfast wrap etc come from a carton. Yum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Every morning I always have a McMuffin for breakfast & 30 chicken McNuggets to take to work and heat up in the microwave, on a friday I treat myself to 2 Big Macs. McDonalds is the best food chain out there, and it's not that unhealthy as people make out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special K Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Not really my thing. I remember having a burger from a french McDonalds outlet about 5 or 6 years ago, on the drive back from the south of france. It was ok as i remember, but probably because i was hank fookin' marvin. Don't really like the look of their outlets though and wouldn't choose to buy food from there if there were other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dig Dig Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Don't go there very often at all which is good considering I can see one from my living room window and is a 20 second walk away. A post morning surf double sausage and egg mcmuffin does go down well occasionally as well as the double cheeseburgers which are greasy and disgusting but also ****ing delicious.

Colinjb Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Being a rep it's so, so easy to fall into the habit of calling in at McDonalds for lunch everyday. They have free WiFi allowing connection to the office, dish out VAT receipts at will and it's very very convenient, essentially grab and go. Generally speaking my colleagues are not healthy. Diet and spending 4+ hours a day behind the wheel will soon see to that. I do enjoy the odd burger now and then (Big Mac and chips with a side order of 6 chicken nuggets...) but I've made recent efforts to curtail the amount of their sh*te I ingest. The upshot of this being i'm now memorising the locations of Supermarkets in the Midlands with salad bars... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedAndWhite91 Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 I like having an occasional 20 McNuggets 'share'box all to myself. Had a burger in a McDonalds in the USA, it was great, they gave it to you open and then you went to a salad bar, tasted lovely. The burgers over here are **** though.

Minty Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 Don't go there, haven't done so since 2007 actually (March 28th to be exact, because it was the day my wife, then fiancee, flew to Namibia for 10 weeks and the first thing I did after saying goodbye was go downstairs in Terminal 3 at Heathrow and get a double cheeseburger!), but the thing that winds me up the most about them and some other FF outlets is the way they're trying to portray themselves as being concerned about the environment and the sourcing of their meat, and doing tiny little things to make them look good, when actually they are still a million miles from being even vaguely 'healthy' or sustainable.

Huffton Posted 1 March, 2012 Share Posted 1 March, 2012 I drink a lot of their coffee, its just cheap and bloody convenient when you're driving all day. If someone would open a drive thru Costa in town I would buy shares... Try not to buy food from McD more than once a week, but I quite like the sweet chilli chicken wraps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're ever over in the Western part of the US, you should check out the In and Out Burger ( referenced in loads of movies ). Complete opposite to McD's - they don't freeze anything and all their burgers come from local herds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyer Posted 2 March, 2012 Share Posted 2 March, 2012 Just thinking about having to eat it makes me feel sick. Theres so much junk in it that you can leave a burger for 5 years and it wont even rot. The fries you eat could be a year old. Im sure theres something very addictive in it because you keep wanting them when you eat them but get off them and they disgust you. If I have to eat out, Ill have a subway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norwaysaint Posted 2 March, 2012 Share Posted 2 March, 2012 The food is very bland, but I have been there quite often when quick food was needed. Just a plain burger though and never fries, there's not too much unhealthy about a lump of beef in a low quality bun. What I don't get though is how, in this day and age, they can still not manage to make passable coffee. Seriously, you can get good coffee everywhere nowadays, how are McDonalds still managing to get it wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
