Had a MCchicken sandwich, strawberry milkshake and chips for afternoon snack lunch. So good. Tasted like 1997.

What would you have? I'm buying

PipeDown1 There’s been lots of diagnostics done on the wait times for both system, and EOTF always comes out on top.

Are you the poster who works at McDonald's and who very kindly and patiently answered posts several months in the thread about the Grande? If so, it's nice to see you again.

TerfsUp I am, and thank you Smile

TerfsUp · 15/07/2018 10:49

Hi, WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue! Hope you are well.

LipstickHandbagCoffee · 15/07/2018 10:50

We are off to McD shortly after kids party. Yum

Tomatoesrock · 15/07/2018 10:53

Quarter pounder with extra cheese, fries and a coke zero for a real treat.

Otherwise I get a veggie option, I am a low meat eater but like to eat flesh occasionally. Grin

Watda · 15/07/2018 10:54

Spicy veggie wrap, onion rings, fries and a chocolate milkshake. This is probably why I’m fat - I have no concept of portion control.

WhatWouldLeslieKnopeDo · 15/07/2018 11:01

This was a bad thread to open with chemo food cravings Blush

Spicy vegetable deluxe for me with fries and a bottle of milk. Yum. Also some cheese bites.

I've never tried a McFlurry but they sound tempting too. So I'll have a raspberry flake McFlurry. Definitely haven't just been browsing the McDonald's website Grin

Can you just add extra stuff then? I've always been sad that the vegetarian burger doesn't come with cheese. Can I request that?

Habeebtea · 15/07/2018 11:02

Just ordered for delivery 1/pounder with cheese meal and coke and McNuggets for ds!

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 15/07/2018 11:17

TerfsUp I am very well, thank you! You? Smile

WhatWouldLeslieKnopeDo Yes, you can Smile It will be an extra 20p for the cheese though as additions do need to be charged for, so you can’t just add a load of stuff for free.

WhatWouldLeslieKnopeDo · 15/07/2018 12:00

Oh yes I'm happy to pay for it! Thanks I'm going to ask for cheese next time :)

Sparklingbrook · 15/07/2018 12:06

You could always take your own cheese. Then it would actually resemble cheese. Grin

WhatWouldLeslieKnopeDo · 15/07/2018 12:44

Nah, I like rubbery cheese slices! Plus I don't want to be the subject of a thread about the weird person who brought their own cheese to McDonalds Grin

SlimmingMumOf1 · 15/07/2018 12:48

2 double cheeseburgers, no gherkins or onions, just ketchup! One large fries, large Diet Coke, and a crunchie McFlurry.

LipstickHandbagCoffee · 15/07/2018 12:50

I like the McDonald’s cheese,the whole combo
Lol at take ken cheese,what a cheese slice in handbag just in case...

Mymycherrypie · 15/07/2018 12:58

Is the cheese they use vegetarian? (Ie contains rennet) Maybe that’s why it’s not on a veggie burger?

OrangePeels · 15/07/2018 12:58

I live in the Middle East. They don’t have the curry sauce for dipping here. It was always my favourite bit!

I’ll have a mcchicken sandwich, fries and a chocolate milkshake please! With extra curry sauce for stashing!

Sparklingbrook · 15/07/2018 12:59

DS1 has been known to bring fast food home and put his own finishing touches to it Grin

I just like cheese to be cheese.

I wouldn't recommend carrying cheese about in your handbag in case of an impromptu trip to the golden arches. Grin

Tomatoesrock · 15/07/2018 13:01

I think the cheese is not automatically on the veggie burgers, for Vegan customers I could be wrong.

Sparklingbrook · 15/07/2018 13:05

These are the ingredients in a slice of McD's 'cheese'-

Cheddar Cheese Slice (processed):
Vegetarian Cheddar (51%) (MILK), Water, Vegetarian Cheese (9%)
(MILK), Whey Powder (MILK), Butter (MILK), Emulsifying Salts
(Trisodium Citrate, Citric Acid), MILK Proteins, Natural Cheese
Flavouring (MILK), Salt, Colour (Beta Carotene, Paprika Extract), AntiCaking
Agent (Sunflower Lecithin Oil).

BarbaraofSevillle · 15/07/2018 13:07

I'll have mine from Spanish McDonald's please. 9 chicken nuggets meal with lager for the drink as I don't like fizzy pop and it's too hot for coffee.

Breakfast time would be sausage bagel, no cheese, add brown sauce, hash brown and a latte.

How much is a cup of gherkins and do you think that, every time they sell a burger with no gherkins, they drop some in a cup to sell to the extra gherkin people?

Orangepear · 15/07/2018 13:13

Oh thank you, I'll have pancakes with syrup, a hash brown and a coffee. If they did iced tea in UK I'd have one of those too.

Opheliasgoldenwine · 15/07/2018 13:24

If I'm hungover, then it's a Big Mac meal with a Diet Coke (large) and maybe a McFlurry.

A normal visit to McDonald's is a six chicken nugget meal with a Diet Coke and mozzarella dippers or cheese balls depending on what's on at that time of year.

Mollie85 · 15/07/2018 13:43

I’ve never had a McDonalds (only cause there are none where I live) but I’m going to base my order on what I’ve read Grin

The mozarrella thingummys - yes
A sausage and egg muffin
Choc milkshake Blush

Thanks Op Wink

longtompot · 15/07/2018 13:47

If you are buying then I would love a chicken legend with mayo, no fries, and a choclate thickshake. Plus 6 chicken nuggets with some ketchup. Thank you Smile

JustfiedandAncient · 15/07/2018 13:48

Quarter pounder, 9 nuggets and strawberry shake

Killybashangel · 15/07/2018 13:59

Filet of fish, frozen strawberry lemonade (summer) coffee (winter) and a donut
