    so i was sitting there getting stuck into my big mac and it dawned on me that there must be a huge number of top buns left over...... for every big mac sold there is a top half left aside.... what do they do with them? i know the odd one or two are used as replacement tops if one falls but what do they do with the rest?

    I wouldn't say McDonald's are big enough to say to suppliers we want Y tops and X bottoms.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Um, they make middle buns.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Do you think that because a Big Mac has three slices of bread, they use two buns sliced in two and get rid of one slice?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,463 ✭✭✭KTRIC


    It doesn't work like that. The buns for the Big Mac come in with the center part and the top and bottom. Thats how they're made.

    The middle bun is diffrrent to the bottom bun and they order them seperately.

    No, the middle bit is sliced out of the whole thing so doesnt have a brown bottom like the bottom bit.

    Buns is an arse isnt it???

    Mmmm would love a big mac right now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭grindle


    ...doesnt have a brown bottom...

    *snigger*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 817 ✭✭✭Mr Magners


    OP some smaller chippers would use two "bottoms" to make a Double Decker. McDonalds buns for a big Mac are supplied cut into 3 pieces.

    The correct term is heel for the bottom and crown for the top. The middle bit is just called the middle.

    I was thinking if you could order middle buns from McDonalds you could make Tubby Toast.

    I'd hate to have two bottoms. The one I have is hard enough to maintain

    I think the real question here is: Gurkin in or out?

    Personally I cant get enough of those little green circles. Anybody who dislikes them is probably gay! :pac:
