    Why isn't a Big Mac the same if you don't have an Apple Pie to follow?

    What does all the other stuff taste like? I only ever have a Big Mac

    Why don't they have wider straws so you can suck the Shake up them with out imploding you sinuses?

    Why do they always give me Ketchup? I hate Ketchup

    Why don't they position the bins in the Car Park so you don't have to get out of the car? It's a DRIVE THRU ffs

    How come all the Crows in the parking lot look the same? Can they actually fly do you think, fat bastards.

    More importantly, why do you eat McDonalds food? It's rank!

    It is

    What does all the other stuff taste like? I only ever have a Big Mac
    They're nice

    Why don't they have wider straws so you can suck the Shake up them with out imploding you sinuses?
    Some do, ask for fatty straws

    Why do they always give me Ketchup? I hate Ketchup
    Because most others love ketchup, just leave it on the counter

    Why don't they position the bins in the Car Park so you don't have to get out of the car? It's a DRIVE THRU ffs
    Because you're supposed to drive home with your purchase, not eat it in the carpark

    I don't know

    BigMac sucks donkey balls. Seriously, it's the most pathetic ''burger'' available, 90% bread, 8% veg and 2% steamrolled patty.

    Double quarter pounder ftw.

    Why do I always think macdonalds is a great idea.

    Until 5 mins after I finish my 'meal' when I feel like vomiting

    What and give them the chance to say "there you go Fatty, have a nice day!"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 954 ✭✭✭acidskiffle


    McDonalds is a waste of cash. Half an hour after eating it you're hungry again. Give me a local chipper any day.

    Why isn't a Big Mac the same if you don't have an Apple Pie to follow?

    It is, it's the apple pie that will have a new flavour after the big mac.

    What does all the other stuff taste like? I only ever have a Big Mac

    Pretty OK in general, except the "chicken" mcnuggets which are terrible.

    Why don't they have wider straws so you can suck the Shake up them with out imploding you sinuses?

    Because it's cheaper to have one standard size.

    Why do they always give me Ketchup? I hate Ketchup

    Either don't use it, give it back, or ask for something else, your choice.

    Why don't they position the bins in the Car Park so you don't have to get out of the car? It's a DRIVE THRU ffs

    Because you aren't really meant to eat in the car park, they assume you are gonna drive away for the most part. Why not just eat inside?

    Because you are racist, they don't all look the same you bigot.

    Absolutely. Large fries, sweet curry sauce dip, double cheeseburger, and a full fat coke with loadsa ice - helps the hangover no end


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Def best hangover food, with a large chocolate milkshake.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,080 ✭✭✭✭Big Nasty


    In-N-Out Double Double is the only way to travel.

    Like a cross between a Big Mac and an Eddie Rockets burger.

    why doesn't anything taste as good as salty mcdonalds fries and chicken nuggets drenched in curry dip and washed down with a half water half coke drink to wash it down?

    looks crap,is crap,but tastes amazing.

    I would have said the vast majority of people who get a drive through eat it in the car in the car park, whether or not they intended for people to do this is irrelevant they should provide bins which can be accessed from the car as it obvious people do it.

    Personally I much prefer to get drive through and sit in the car listening to the radio than eat inside, If there is no drive through I often still go in and get a take away and go out and eat it in the car.

    Why do McDonald's automatically put gherkins in the burgers? They're revolting and I don't know anyone who likes them.

    People actually eat those horrible apple pies?

    They shouldn't even be allowed call them pies, it's just battered baby food.

    I worked for Mcdo's 20 years ago.

    They used to send someone down to basement every hour, get them to open a rubbish bag to do a food count. It way a way for them to monitor wasteage. We heard that the pickles were put on burgers to check if the sales tally matched the amount of average discarded pickles.

    The fact that one burger can have pieces of upto 600 cows should keep us all away from the place.

    But nevertheless Mcdo's food is a great cure for constipation.

    1 Big mac
    1 supersize coke
    1 fries
    1 caramel sunday

    walk around at a medium pace for 10 minutes and wait

    Cheeseburger is 99p.

    Thats all I ever get, when jogging past a local McD's, as a treat. One thing in their favour- its old school fast food. Ask and get immediately. With a lot of modern fast food you might as well take a seat in a restaurant. No waiting is fast. Anything else, is slow.

    The first two question statements are contradictory. You claim you only ever have a Big Mac and wonder what the other stuff tastes like yet then assume a position of knowledgeability concerning the taste and after effects on tastebuds of a McDonalds Apple Pie. I am tempted to call Shenanigans :pac:

    Yeah, but you need about six of them to be full and you belch half an hour later and you're hungry again.

    Kinda defeats the purpose! ;)

    I don't eat processed food, I never get take aways & I don't drink fizzy drinks.

    But once, maybe twice a year, I have a Big Mac, large fries & a Fanta.

    And I do be fucking lovin' it.

    To be honest I don't eat a whole lot of processed food myself and only do a Mickey D's about once every three months. Each time I do I leave dissapointed. Gimmee a 1/4 pounder and chips from an Italian chipper any day of the week.

    Lies all lies, I've been there twice in the last while (first time in a few years)
    and I've had to ask for two measly sachets of ketchup both times.

    Is its Heinz ketchup? It tastes nicer than heinz in the bottle.


    Anywho I won't be going back if I'm going to eat fried food its going to be a decent chipper.

    A lot of people are quite passive here about what their food does to you. I watched a documentary before about a guy called Morgan Spurlock. In truth, I had to switch the thing off after about 10-15 mins in, I started to feel sick watching him. When it was re-ran I watched it through, and it's a real eye-opener.

    The idea behind this documentary was to see what effects it would have on his body after living solely on Maccy D's for month. Of course normal people wouldn't live off it for a month, but it was interesting nonetheless. He was advised by doctors during the filming to quit his McDonalds diet because it was beginning to cause serious health implications, and in particular they were concerned about diabetes. During what they did get filmed up to that point, he had gained nearly two stone.

    His first day on the job :

    Obviously if you only eat McDonalds three times a day and you GO Large its going to have a major effect. On the other hand a cheese-burger is less calorific than most sandwiches ( which is what it is).

    I find that documentary as useful as someone who wanted to show the dangers of Guinness drowning 15 pints a day ( 5 per meal) and then pointing out the dangers to all Guinness drinkers.

    No. SH*T. Sherlock.

    I'll still have one or two pints on a Sunday afternoon.

    McDonalds is muck but I do have one the odd time I'm drunk/hungover/having a serious late-evening munchies attack - probably averages about one every six weeks. I do think it's tasty.
