McDonald’s breakfast is the most depressing food I ever ate, it was old and crusty and I could feel the rejection of life poured into it, never order a Mc muffin at 3 am.

If you order anything at McD at a weird time you're apt to get something that's old and stale and gross.

In general though McDonald's breakfast items are the closest things to real food that they sell. I'd take an egg mcmuffin and hash browns over their burgers 9/10 times.

The egg in egg mcmuffins are actually fresh cracked eggs up in the great white north, you can tell because sometimes you get a little bit of eggshell in your mcmuffin and it's like "oh ew gross what the gently caress is that an eggshell" followed by "huh I guess this actually is real food"

Also just in general my experience with macdo's is that it's much more edible and representative of actual food up here compared to in its mother country. The angus burgers became a standard menu item up here and they seriously taste like a real solid freshly made burg.

It is here in :911: too, and they changed to real butter instead of margarine at some point.... but their other breakfast sandwiches get the pre-scrambled egg goo thing by default.

ASK ME ABOUT CROSSING THE STREAMS


Here is my McTrick.

I have the McDonald’s app on my phone. Whenever the trailblazers score 100 points in a game the app gives you a coupon for 6 free McNuggets. I always get them with 100% pure honey as the dip , and then add on a tub of syrup(also free). When I get home I dump the nuggets in a bag in my freezer (I chop them up to go on salads or when I make General Tso's chicken or just eat them)

Since the blazers almost always score 100 points and the play a few times a week, I’ve ended up with hundreds of free nuggets and gallons of syrup and honey. I use the honey to make baklava.

I have 3 phones (2 are just my old phones that don’t have service but McDonalds has free wifi) so that makes 18 nuggets 3 times a week on my way home from work. I don’t even go in, there are spots you just park in and check in with the app and they bring it out to you, no lines.

I do it because I’m cheap and I’m still mad about the Monopoly fraud.

Didn't eat much there as a kid but still considered it quite a treat because [being a dumb kid].
Avoided it like that plague in my twenties and for some reason tried it again in my early thirties.

Every single time I've tried it they would gently caress up my extremely simple orders of "2 cheeseburgers, only ketchup and mayo" (and cheese, obviously).
Every.
Single.
Time.

Worst occasion was, getting used to their incompetence, I'd open it up before leaving with it, check inside and of course there's loving pickles, onions and mustard or whatever the idiots put in there.
Politely ask to please replace it with what I ordered... 2 cheeseburgers with only ketchup and mayo.
They replace it with something equally messed up.
Politely reiterate my very simple request for [none of that poo poo].
Get yet another messed up batch. gently caress it, give me back my money I'm going somewhere else.

Every. Single. Time.
In every McDo I tried.

So I went back to [never eating at McDo].

To be fair, I've worked for so long in restaurant kitchens, I can only sympathize with how lovely their job is so it's hard to be mad at them. But loving hell, you only need to add ketchup and mayo, I'm not asking for a quantum physics lecture.
Anyway if I'm gonna eat really unhealthy, awful food, I prefer making it myself. So gently caress you McDonald's, never again.

I had a 1/4lber (that's how us real fans write it) last night, but I subbed out the regular onions and lettuce for the diced onions and shredded lettuce because I like my condiments finely chopped and it was pretty good. The meat wasnt dry without being sloppy greasy and they didn't put too much ketchup and mustard on. All in all a pretty good burger.

Fries weren't fresh and crispy but weren't super old. Also had a four piece nug that was fresh so that was a silver lining to the sides.

Thank you. This is that thread.

Lets hop the Mediterranean to McDonalds Morocco! Its wild!

Meet the Big Buffalo:

The Big Buffalo is a 100% pure ground beef steak, three slices of Cheddar, fresh onions, two slices of tomatoes, fresh salad all accompanied by an authentic Buffalo sauce. " This sounds american as hell and it will never make it over. Shame.

How about the Chicken Mythic:

"it is a sesame seed bread, a crispy chicken fillet between two slices of melted emmental cheese, two slices of tomatoes, salad all seasoned with a mythic sauce with a smoky taste!" Mythic sauce?

Grand McWrap™ Sauce Algérienne

"The Grand McWrap® Algerian Sauce is a large tortilla with 2 crispy breaded chicken fillets, emmental cheese, a slice of fresh tomato, crunchy salad, fried onions, 2 steak house fries all seasoned with Algerian sauce." Wait, just two fries? Seriously? Ok. But what a positive for Moroccan-Algerian relations that they fully credit them with the flavors. Unless thats a huge insult over there. Being identified just as a sauce.

Love the name of this one.

"A Ciabatta bun, a 100% pure ground beef steak, a melted Emmental slice, a Cheddar slice, tomato, fresh onions, all served with a mayo sauce and ketchup sauce." Return? Why did did they ever take away a fully mixed-cheese sammitch? But I'm glad its back.

If you don't like Algerian sauce, be sure to try


Plus two things I would really love to have added to my local McDonalds


Do we have any Moroccan FFF buddies? I can paypal you postage for moroccan fry sauce.

You are not at all prepared for McDonalds Belgium. The burgers are given human names and Tinder profiles, the carrots are described as "cracky" and who knows what shelf-stable Andalusian sauce should truly taste like? Not me.

First up is Maestro Lovely Louise.

Louise is described as: "With its crispy chicken, its bacon, its crisp apple slice and its melting camembert, the surprising Lovely Louise will make you fall in love." So many happy meals out there with gormless apple slices rotting away at the bottom and nobody is giving those kids a little hunk of camembert to make it worth putting up on their plain hamburger. Pity.

Not your taste? Try the more milfy Generous Jacqueline:

"Generous Jacqueline owes its name to its generous character : 2 crispy chicken fillets, long crispy slices of bacon, the traditionally matured Maredsous Character cheese, fresh salad and a double portion of lemon-mayonnaise sauce. All this in a soft, golden brioche bun with poppy seeds and sesame seeds." Raawrrr. Oh behave.

Belgiums cold beverage game is exceptional for an unremarkable nation. When I go to Belgium im getting a Banana shake, an Ice Squeeze and a Juplier


FYI an Ice Squeeze is: "A Tasty and easy-to-take ice cream. Ideal in spring!" So it could be anything, but its certainly not a Summer item. This directive is noted, Belgian McDonalds.

The only real stumbling block is the McFish which comes excursively with ketchup which seems very wrong having been raised on decades of rigid Fish + White Sauce iconography.

You thought Belgium had the sexiest burger names? Oh no they don't. Welcome to Mcdonald's Slovenia.

Don Juan burger.

"An extremely seductive burger. Beef steak, delicious pepper sauce, cedar, salad and fried crispy onions are unique. But it is special because of the free-range baked egg, which gives it an unmistakable taste and unforgettable character. Don Juan, an egg burger." Gonna slip don Generous Jacqueline's number on a fry-oil stained napkin.

Not only do they get sexy names, but they sound loving incredible.

"Juicy Jane is a Master Burger for poultry lovers. With a combination of ingredients of high quality and freshness, it offers a first-class experience. In the middle are chicken fillets from Perutnina Ptuj. They are wrapped in special loaf, reminiscent of freshly baked bun, and the taste is enhanced by traditionally ripened white cedar cheese and a delicious spicy tarragon sauce. Coupled with toasted bacon and fresh ingredients, they make for a unique chicken burger experience.""

Wait, masterburger? Still, I want special loaf, cedar cheese & tarrgon on my everything from now on.

But not on my...
Party Bucket

Just a lot of chicken and two small fries. Perfect, honestly, for your paring of a Don Juan with a Juicy Jane.

A lot of global mcdonalds do a flapjack-with-cheese variation, but this one looks the classiest.

McDonalds of Singapore is very very boring until you hit the Prosperity menu. Which makes up for everything and then some.

Lets stare with the highlights of their rote offerings.

Buttermilk Crispy Chicken, which is as adventurous as they get out side of the PROSPERITY MENU. Cabbage, colby... uh... some hot pineapple. This is a great looking yet seemingly randomized burger.

"Crispy whole-muscle chicken thigh flavoured with buttermilk packed in a glazed burger bun. Served with creamy Colby cheese, romaine lettuce, black pepper mayo; and topped with grilled pineapple rings and crisp purple cabbage. In short, perfection in every bite!"

You can also have a double fish if you want. They wont argue. Its on the menu.


And they can dip a cone, which I swear was something McDonalds did back in the 80's. Or was that only Dairy queen? Either way, there is no way this is coming to America as its presumably two separate machines that will break on the regular.


Oh, so now its seriously time to brace yourself for the PROSPERITY MENU.


Black pepper sauce slathered double stack of chicken and beef. A peach fizz, mango and passion fruit in the pie, and if thats not all enough the fries come with a forward-looking financial forecast. I would fee so rich after eating that veritable feast.

In short, the PROSPERITY MENU is a limited time only deal, do not bother with McDonalds Singapore at all if they are not serving it.

(There is also a PROSPERITY breakfast but it sucks.)
