1955 Burger from McDonalds.

Anyone tried it... so much better than a big mac!

 

Ich liebe es !

What's so good about it?

 

The bread to meat ratio in a big mac is wrong. That is why the Quarterpounder is superior.

 

When ever I feel peckish a McDonalds always appeals to me, then after one bite I remember why I hate them so much.

Absolute garbage.

 

I had one of those in an airport, one of the better McD's burgers but was huggee. Haven't seen them in the UK?

 

It is horrid.

 

McDonalds is the food of scum.

 

Similarly, every now and then I will have an urge for a McDonalds but then once it is front of me it doesn't take long to be reminded it is crap. I was driving home from a meeting on Cornwall last week and was so hungry I would have eaten donkey s.hit. I stopped and McDonalds was all that was on offer and I still couldn't bring myself to finish it.

 

I hate McDonald's except for breakfast, but if I had to eat one its the Big Tasty

 

In Sweden, McD employees were being taxed for their daily complementary meal. They took it to court and won as the court agreed that a McD meal does not have the nutritional value to constitute a meal. And therefore, the Swedish employees do not pay tax for their free "meal".

I don't mind McD once in a while but I find my self hungry again after a very short time. It simply is very very poor food in a nutritional sense. Too much fat, too many low-value carbs and not enough fiber and protein.

Why no fast food chains offer a wholemeal bun, low-fat sauces etc is beyond me. It IS possible to make a burger with a good nutritional value using lean meat, good bread etc.

 

These companies are only interested.

Low cost to produce , high profit margin , max sales.

An ideal way to make money. A good business model to follow.

Also I have heard that they have a very good management training for employees.

Still a product that people want to buy.

But not for me.

 

I have a McDonalds probably once a year, usually pissed, and end regretting it straight away. Terrible stuff.

 

That quick? Usually takes me a couple of hours before i suffer the regrettable consequences of McDonalds.

 

I don't get it.

It's a burger. What's not to like?

 

I don't like the sauce they use, the bun can be rubbery and the "meat" isn't great either. What's to like?

 

Cheap bread, beef 'patty', plastic cheese. What is there to like?

 

Still good though!

 

rather have a XL bacon cheese burger from burger king!

 

I think McDonalds is OK, nothing special, but good for a quick reasonably cheap meal, I've certainly had a lot worse!!!

 

They're all *****.

 

but when someone opens a proper burger joint in town, no one eats there and it closes

 

If you look at the fat calorie content and ingredients of a McDondalds you'll see that its not that bad for you at all. Infact some salads with dressings are less healthy.

Where they are lacking is in the care or production in the kitchen, often due to the high turnover required.

Once in a while is fine and damn this thread has made me hungry.

 

im bleedin starvin now! :eating:

 

I prefer Gregg's.

 

Enough about your sexual preferences, high st. bakers normally do some decent pasties.:biggrin:

 

The only decent pasties are those that are actually made in Cornwall :eating:

With the exception of the "Gingster" monstrosities :sick1:, which are virtually made in Devon anyway, Launceston being very near the Cornwall/Devon boarder

 

Devon pasties are good if you get the ones made in bakeries rather than factories. When I lived in Devon there was a bakery in Bovey which did fantastic short crust numbers which were as filling as they were delicious. I miss them now!

 

my mrs is from Cornwall, and she makes lovely pasties. 100 x better than the gingsters range. Cornish people actually get quite offended if you talk about ginsters, as they are or were made in Devon.

 

Before ordering a burger king , you look forward to it , about £10 later , you realise its shyte and repeats for about 4 days

vile food , but not so vile after ale

 

best pasties are made at phelps , one in hayle , cornwall , all the sea front cornish places stuff the things 99% full of swede and potato , rubbish AND bloody pricey

 

Now I thought a Devonshire pasty, wasn't a pasty but an Oggie?

 

I live in Cornwall and my wife is Cornish, and I can assure you that although the Cornish are not proud of it, they are definitely made at Launceston in Cornwall!!!

 

The best burgers are the ones you make yourselves, as for pastie it has to be an original one from Cornwall. Wasn't it what the tin miners used to be given by there wives for lunch, so they a proper meal. ?
