AIBU to send him back to McDonald’s (milkshake related)

Just incase it’s not obvious.....this is only light hearted and no judging on the McD’s please.

My dad was going to McDonald’s for a snack (his words!) and asked if I wanted anything. Not really hungry but said I’d have some fries and banana milkshake, you know seen as he’s going.
He brought me a chocolate milkshake! No banana apparently, but why chocolate? He said because chocolate and banana go together Confused what that’s to do with anything I haven’t a clue.
And they had strawberry.......he apparently didn’t know I like strawberry milkshake! But thought I’d like chocolate! Everyone knows chocolate is the worst milkshake flavor, right?
And he’s only known me my entire life, ffs!

So am I being unreasonable to say go back and get me a strawberry one? Or he should at least give me his cheese burger as compensation, as I’m actually feeling hungry now!!

I didn’t know they did banana- are you sure?

YABU, McDonalds milkshake is the drink of the gods. It also always tastes slightly of banana...?!

usedtogotomars · 06/01/2018 22:32

They do. Chocolate banana strawberry and vanilla.

I like the chocolate milkshakes though.

lulu12345 · 06/01/2018 22:34

YES @popcorntime.. why always the banana aftertaste?! Sometimes overpowering.

Yukbuck · 06/01/2018 22:34

I'd also not have the chocolate milkshake. Banana or strawberry on the other hand. Mmmm.

percypig84 · 06/01/2018 22:34

Just be grateful it wasn’t banana, I worked in McDonalds as a student and used to gag when topping the banana syrup up!

popcorntime · 06/01/2018 22:34

Should say McDonald's CHOCOLATE milkshake is the drink of the gods...

I quite like the banana aftertaste though Blush

Emboo19 · 06/01/2018 22:35

They definitely do banana! And it’s definitely the best one, closely followed by strawberry.

Oh no wait just reread the OP, banana was your first choice YABU!!

Bridechilla · 06/01/2018 22:36

Strawberry - YABU! Vanilla, always.

Envy I want chips now

Amanduh · 06/01/2018 22:36

I'd rather have ANYTHING than banana.
Chocolate is the best one!! Obviously!!

I once ordered a strawberry milkshake from McDs. It was pink but tasted of banana. Hmm

Thewindsofchange · 06/01/2018 22:39

Mmm vanilla milkshake.....

Emboo19 · 06/01/2018 22:39

My chocolate one doesn’t taste of banana, I feel cheated!
The cheeky twat, just threw me a banana and said put that in!! He did get large fries rather than the medium I asked for though.

YABVVVVVU

Chocolate is far superior

Also on a related topic... have you ever had a Byron milkshake? They’re AMAZING

Glumglowworm · 06/01/2018 23:09

YANBU

I love McDonald’s banana milkshake and I agree strawberry is the next best

Emboo19 · 06/01/2018 23:10

Does it bring all the boys to your yard though?

sillyquestion477 · 06/01/2018 23:14

YABU
Chocolate is clearly the best milkshake from McDonald's. You may even have put me in the mood to go to a 24hr mcd"s and get one now !

Fibbertigibbet · 06/01/2018 23:16

They didn't have banana? Ask him to recalibrate the machine.

Petalflowers · 06/01/2018 23:19

Chocolate all the way (and I want one now!)

Idontevencareanymore · 06/01/2018 23:22

Yabu.

Vanilla is THE best flavour. Followed by chocolate.

They all tastes banana like anyway.

Raisedbyguineapigs · 06/01/2018 23:22

I thought they stopped doing banana milkshake in the 90's! But I thought Spudulike had gone out of business until I moved to Norwich!

DianaPrincessOfThemyscira · 06/01/2018 23:24

Why. Why must you do this to me? Now I want a strawberry milkshake - which I’ll have you know is the best Wink

Emboo19 · 06/01/2018 23:41

Sorry for causing late night milkshake wanting!
Have to say I’m shocked at the amount of chocolate shake lovers though.....it was definitely no banana or strawberry
