Fuck you, McDonald's

Those of you only interested in telling me I'm unreasonable for eating in McDonald's, can save your fingers. I'm not going to be back in a hurry, Christmas fucking music (Noddy Holder followed by Tom Jones) and worse, they've changed the barbecue sauce and now it's minging. I came in here for some emotional eating and I'm leaving enraged. Angry

I like the smoky BBQ sauce but it is very different to the normal one

I was actually going to start a thread about their syrup that goes with the breakfast pancakes. Does anyone know if you can buy a similar type in the supermarket? They don't call it "Maple Syrup" but I don't know if that's what it essentially is.
Thanks.

Also interested to know this, most of the time when I order pancakes for delivery they forget the syrup, which makes them basically pointless.

I am addicted to caramel frappes - everything else is pants!

I actually love McDonalds at the moment, as they've just given my 16yo her first part time job!

Oh no! I only get BBQ sauce! There's two now?!

Yep.

They have different packaging.

The normal one looks the same as the others, in a little white square thing.
But the new smokey one is larger, and it's round and clear plastic.

Do not try the smokey bbq one, as @EllaMenopee says, its horrible.

@HunterHearstHelmsley that has to be satire it’s just too perfect 🤣

Aw, that's brilliant!

isthismylifenow · 15/11/2023 19:38

It has to be a jalapeño sauce every time, surely?

We only get that smokey BBQ sauce and I'm not a fan. I feel like I have been cheated now. Our other choice is sweet and sour and that is also all sorts of wrong.

Our ice cream machine is finally working though. Which is a miracle seeing as it's summer weather. It only seems to operate well in winter when ice cream isn't in demand.

Am now gagging for a double cheeseburger…haven’t had one for months! Definitely a treat for tomorrow using the drive through 😂

Tom Jones Christmas music you say? That's not unusual Grin

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

TheChosenTwo · 15/11/2023 19:39

It should be illegal to play those songs until December 1st at the absolute earliest. There are only a small amount of them and just play on a loop over and over again.
Next time do what I do and use the drive thru! Haven’t had a McD’s in bloody ages and now I’m really fancying a hamburger (it’s my favourite, don’t judge me for being a child 😂 I have 2 if I’m really hungry!) and fries for my lunch tomorrow.
Can’t comment on the bbq sauce, it’s gross and I won’t eat it in any of its ghastly guises.

I'm kind of hoping this is a joke. It is. Isn't it?

Probably not, I had my first 5 children adopted because I felt so guilty about feeding them McDonalds on holiday once 🤷‍♀️

I lost Whamagheddon on Nov 8th.

That's way too fucking early.

Whiteday · 15/11/2023 19:44

@NalafromtheLionKing serves you right really!

At least you did the recent thing!

Needmorelego · 15/11/2023 19:44

@Robinbuildsbears they forget the syrup 😱
I'd sue them for that 😂
Back when you used to have to pump the sauces out of those dispenser things my daughter would make her own mix of the BBQ and tomato sauce plus salt and pepper.
It was gross ....but she liked it. Weirdo.

Ooh, you are missing out!

I cannot believe you don't have this option. I'm not in UK though but I did just assume McD offerings were the same everywhere.

Wouldn't mind sampling the BBQ sauce you all get and like, as ours (smokey) is bloody awful.
