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

You mean an organic carrot 🥕 surely?

Needmorelego · 15/11/2023 19:46

@Differentstarts they aren't carrots at the moment. They are "reindeer treats".

I remember for an April Fools, McD announced they were starting a new milkshake sauce.

Apparently there are people who like to dip their fries in their milkshake.
When they found out it was an April Fools, they were really gutted.

I was just astonished people dip fries in milkshake.
Who are these weirdos?
Fess up, do any of you dip your fries in your milkshake?

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.

Isn't it golden syrup? Same as what you can have on the pancakes?

My DD dips her fries in her Mcflurry! It's sweet and salty, I guess!

@UndertheCedartree I don't think it's actual Golden Syrup cos that's more like glue and the McDonald's one isn't.
I have only recently discovered the joy of their pancakes and syrup. Mmmm 🥞

PonyPatter44 · 15/11/2023 19:49

(Small voice) I really like the smoky bbq sauce. Its nicer than the ordinary one.

Tessisme · 15/11/2023 19:49

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

Well, it was the very least you could do to be fair @NalafromtheLionKing😁

Pinkpinkpink15 · 15/11/2023 19:49

@EllaMenopee i haven't eaten in McD's for over 10 years.

drive through all the way 😂
soon on my one horse open sleigh

i don't know if you can get sachets/pots of BBQ sauce via drive through, I've never been asked if I wanted it?!

Im feeling fries & a banana milkshake coming on tomorrow!!

*decent

I know but now we only eat artisan, homegrown, organic everything and all food is wild, not farmed (young DS just ate a housespider 🕷️ which is organic and full of protein, while my older 2 are busy hunting birds and rabbits in the fields).

@NalafromtheLionKing keep away from McDonald's! Is there like a self ban thing you can do, like gambling?

LightDrizzle · 15/11/2023 19:54

😂😂😂
This is what the internet is FOR imo.

I assume the maccy haters are too weak after their massive salads to type …

Nah, the kids already spend far too much of their time gambling (and smoking).

What is this I read of a bagel! We have never had nor currently have these.

I will trade you 6 jalapeño sauces for one bagel. 😀

We only get the mcmuffins for breakfast. And don't dare try order after 10.30am, oh no no not happening. The hash brown is the best part of that deal. It's dripping in oil and you need three serviettes. Perfect hangover cure.

If you get there at 10.30:001 that board gets whipped around so fast and then you have to rethink your whole order, with a hangover.
