Had McDonalds while I was in England, it was surprisingly good.

I probably go to McDonald's once a week average for breakfast. Get the two for five egg Mcmuffin and diet coke.

30 yrs ago I read 20% of all blacks in the US eat at McD's at least once a week

I wonder what it is now

The fries are still good but often over salted. Nothing like spending 15 bucks for garbage food

But it's not $15.00

Test order direct from app, Large Fry and drink.

serving breakfast all day


Serving breakfast all day is a novel concept. I think they tried it in the 2010’s right before Covid with a limited menu like no bagels or muffins, just biscuits.

Having worked as a manager in the early 2000’s while in college, breakfast has different cooking temperatures than other items cooked for lunch. For example, I think the grills were set to lower temperatures than when cooking burgers. Eggs and Canadian bacon were cooked a on a much cooler grill like 265 degrees while sausages were 365 and beef patties 425.

Hash browns were cooked at a higher temperatures than hash browns. Biscuits were cooked in a lower temperature oven than apple pies. Biscuits came in trays of 24 and took about 20 minutes to cook from frozen. McGriddles and McMuffins could probably go through a press toaster to caramelize the bun and to serve warm and toasty. Muffins also had a conveyor toaster that bagels also used to caramelize one side of the bun.


Another reason for not doing breakfast all day was cross contamination between eggs, pork, chicken, and beef. McMuffins use whole poached eggs while other the eggs are essentially egg beaters and come in cartons. Some may have even switched to pre made frozen eggs that just need to be warmed up. That was how the burritos were made. A half slice of cheese and a scoop of burrito mix. You rolled it and microwaved it.

Also back then, McDonalds had "grilled" chicken. It was a frozen partially precooked patty that was put on the grill with some water and cooked for a few minutes on each side to warm the patty up to 165+ temperature.

All of the McDonalds in California have put up huge banners, that say they accept EBT, in the last year or so.

That's probably helped sales.

Egg McMuffin one of the GOAT.


Specifically the sausage McMuffin. What makes it so good is the combination of fried egg, sausage, and cheese. Best thing on their menu by a mile and really the only thing I care to eat.

Can't go to even a neighborhood restaurant without paying $40 for two. Like their McMuffin in the morning. Tried to switch to Burger King in the morning but for 3 times in a row, Burger King acted like I was the only person in the world that drank coffee in the morning. "We're gonna have to make that."

About once or twice every other week I'll get a Big Mac with tomatoes and free large fries on their app for $5.85 total. Cane's is nearby but I might go once a yr.

0 times since Ida. After they fricked me out of $42 because the app showed the one I ordered from was open but it wasn't. They told oh the charge won't go through. Guess what it did and they couldn't figure out how to get it refunded. Never got the money back and I haven't eaten there once since. I used to get it about every 3 weeks on Friday for the kids.


Just dispute the charge with your credit card company.

Instant refund.

One simple phone call.

I have the opposite. We’ve ordered McDonald’s quite drunk a few times around 11pm and they deny the order because they don’t want to deliver that late. This lets you keep the money since it’s declined before it even goes through, but you still get the points. It’s like a glitch. I have thousands of points from this.
