@Viva la Ben

I had one of these a few weeks ago (with"steak"). It was actually better than I would have imagined.

Anybody try the Bacon King yet? Looks like Burger King has ripped off Wendy's now, too.

Moving from poli sci thread... (btw, where is the professor from LGP? Did he ever make it over? He was a solid poster)

I've never eaten a Big Mac before I don't think...maybe when I was kid, maybe...but that seems unlikely...I don't eat McDonald's or red meat now...so that trend will continue...I'm not sure I've had any of the "signature" or "specialty" sandwiches from any major fast food chain in my life...I ate one double-stack (?) whatever that KFC thing was called with two pieces of chicken instead of bread, that was on a dare...but none of the McD, BK or Wendy's "big name" sandwiches have ever been consumed by me to my knowledge...why pay $7.50 for their stupid sandwich when you get hit the dollar menu for the same food...?

Is that burrito from Taco Bell?

Two weeks ago I had, by far, the hottest fast food item I've ever eaten..I had a 7" and it was no longer pleasant to eat halfway through. GetGo's sub game is top shelf-minus the crazy hot cheesesteak.

Do you still eat those chopped and formed breaded chicken disks? It would go a long way in explaining your post.

The last two times I had McDonalds chicken McNuggets (in totally separate states), I got sick. Never again, unfortunately.

The WSJ has covered mcdonalds and its struggles pretty heavily recently. Apparently the WSJ got a hold of a mcondalds memo that reported that only 1 out of 5 millenials has ever tried a big mac. that seems like a surprisingly low number, but when you start asking people, you see that a lot of younger people have avoided bigmacs.

I would guess that is the result of good parenting.

I, too, enjoy tif's McRib kill wall.

The only thing I find palatable at McDonald's is their breakfast menu.

In my youth, I used to partake in the occasional Big Mac or Double Quarter Pounder, but I can't go there now (and probably shouldn't have then). I also liked the burger that was split in half to keep it "fresh" - the McDLT.

We had a lot fewer fast food dining choices when I was younger - McDonald's was the only place other than Dunkin Donuts near where I lived in Massachusetts, and I don't recall many fast food places near where I lived in Pittsburgh (O'Hara Twp). I'm sure there were some, and probably plenty there now.

Now, moving to the South in high school, there were lots of fast food franchises very close by. There's a lot to say about the socioeconomics of South Carolina vs. Pittsburgh/Boston suburb...

It's basically just mayonnaise and French dressing with some pickle relish mixed in.

Same here. The sausage, egg, and cheese McGriddle is fantastic.

I've had the free Big Mac you got when you reached X points in PensPoints the first year that was a thing.

Most of the time, if I'm getting McD's, I'm just getting 2 double hamburgers. Don't need much more than that, and although I haven't had a BK burger in a while, I think McD's are the best of the 3 main (BK McDs Wendys) options.

My guess is 2/5 millennials believe responding "no, I've never had a BigMac" makes them feel like special snowflakes when filling out a survey.

McDonald's is only good after drinking. Otherwise, meh city.

I much prefer the food at Wendy's. I don't prefer their prices, however.

BK, I love the whopper, but hate their fries. I do like onion rings though, so I typically go for that.

Taco Bell is hit or miss, both in taste, and in the chances of being stricken with Taco anus.
