McDonald’s for tea tonight! Been a long day. But stuck as to what to have!

What would your order be? 😋

Big Tasty meal with full fat Coke with no ice. If the Big Tasty isn't on then it's a Big Mac.

Used to love the sundaes they did in the 90's so if they still existed I'd have a strawberry one for dessert.

Double cheeseburger, medium fries, vanilla milkshake with a double espresso poured into it.

Rather starve its vile.

What makes joyless people like you come on a lighthearted thread with your sneering? What strange sort of pleasure do you get from it?

I've just had a spicy chicken thigh, with lettuce and mayo, on a bun with fries and a coke, and I can assure you it was a million miles away from being "vile". Maybe lighten up and have some fun!

@Christienne

I tried one yesterday. The patty is very insubstantial texture-wise and has no taste. I was so disappointed. It's not a patch on the bk one

The Burger King offerings aren’t Vegan/Vegetarian though.

Personally, I love the McPlant. It’s filled a very specific Quarter Pounder with Cheese shaped hole that’s been there since I stopped eating meat.

So, my order is a large McPlant meal with Classic Coke. That’s right for the Anti McDonalds Brigade - the full sugar one 😱

See I love red coke but McDonald's Coke Zero is really delicious. I don't know how or why but it's much nicer than Coke Zero out of a can or bottle. It tastes better than regular Coke in McDonald's, for me!

Usually 3x hamburgers, and 3x those chicken burgers at 99p Then using the display screens when ordering I add the extra lettuce, onions, ketchup ect on as it's free and helps bulk the burgers out more, chips I'll get from chip shop as more filling.

Tis a pickle when some people have to do that

My typical go to meal is wrap of the day meal (obviously having fries and a fanta) with a double cheeseburger if I'm extra hungry or those cheese bites if they are on the menu.
Other things I go for are a spicy mayo chicken legend meal, big mac meal, or for a cheap eat a chicken mayo, double cheese and medium fries.

allfurcoatnoknickers · 23/01/2022 03:08

@Redglitter

I wish they'd do the breakfast stuff all day.

Bagel with bacon, egg & cheese, hash brown & diet coke please

This exact order

. MacDonald's hash browns are a god-tier junk food.

Dustyblue · 23/01/2022 03:42

I'm amazed there are no caramel or hot fudge sundaes over there? What flavours are there?

Here it's chocolate (hot fudge), caramel & strawberry.

What is the Big Tasty? Sounds tasty.

Kinsters · 23/01/2022 04:03

Me and DH always get 20 nuggets, 2 double cheeseburgers (one as a set with fries) and maybe one of the special burgers. Drinks are frozen strawberry/coke mix (it's basically a coke slushy - I don't think they have them in the UK)

None! They got rid of them all now its just the mcflurries www.mcdonalds.com/gb/en-gb/menu/desserts.html

Dustyblue · 23/01/2022 05:11

WHAT? Just mcflurries and NO sundaes?

You've all been well ripped off. An apple pie dunked in a caramel sundae is sublime, and I'm not generally a sweet tooth.

I had to look up the Big Tasty, and it does sound delicious. Not a match for the McFeast though. It has all 3 sauces- ketchup, sweet mustard and the McChicken mayo.

Actually just found a DM article from last year saying it's been pulled from the Australian menu- 'tis a lie! I had one a few months ago!

I'm starting to sound like Homer when he joins the "RibWich Tour"

We used to visit Australia every year and it was always a highlight of the trip stopping at the first McDonald on the highway down from the airport 😅

sageandbasil · 23/01/2022 06:53

I think I'm the only person who dosent like their nuggets! Quarter pounder with cheese, fries and a Sprite Zero. Maybe a side of chicken selects to share if I'm starving

MouseyMoose · 23/01/2022 08:50

@Kinsters we have family in Australia and whenever we used to visit 'Macca's' was always put first stop too! A frozen Coke after 24 hours travelling and suddenly being in 30+ degree heat really hits the spot

Some Burger Kings were selling frozen Coke last year but I only found one, in a motorway services, that had it. It was lovely but as the services were so far from home only ever had it that once.

evtheria · 23/01/2022 10:59

@Dustyblue Moved to the UK over a decade ago and I still start muttering about the lack of hot fudge sundaes at McDonalds.

Nonivknamesforcatapillars · 23/01/2022 11:50

I want mcdonnalds now 😫

I’d go for the classic Big Mac and fries with a Coke Zero. Can’t beat a Big Mac. I also enjoy the wraps.

Dd1 says the Mcplant is very good. She’s thrilled that it’s finally made it to our local restaurant.

MrsMariaReynolds · 23/01/2022 12:12

On my trips back home to the States, I always hit up McDonalds for my two most fave things---hot fudge sundaes and sausage McGriddles. OMG. Lush. I get why there's no hot fudge (as it just isn't a thing at all in this country) Why oh why hasn't the UK embraced the McGriddle!!?!?!?

JackieWeaversZoomAc · 23/01/2022 12:19

Omg hot fudge sundae 80's flash backs here!!!

In nz MacDonald's do lime milkshakes which are the best.

So in a perfect scenario I'd have a double cheeseburger & lime milkshake

Where the hell do you live ?

liveforsummer · 23/01/2022 12:49

I'm guessing with the halloumi it's Greece or Cyprus but this definitely was not a thing last time I was there
