I have also tried the latest McDonald's product. Haven't been there for a couple of years I think, on the rare occasion I eat goyslop it's KFC because I find it better value. The McDonald's CEO is obviously a master marketer because I never would have even heard of this burger if it weren't for all the dunking for that video.

Thought the big arch was pretty good actually, but bear in mind I was 4 hours late for my dinner having got off a flight so I was at a point of weakness, if I weren't so hungry I might have a different opinion. I liked there isn't a stupid half bun in between the meat like the "big" Mac, also thought the sauce had more taste to it. The cheese is overpowered by everything else, I could see it but not taste it. I liked the texture of the crispy onions.

Fries are lame, I'm sure they are even thinner than I remember and still near tasteless. 4x nuggets nothing special but not awful either.

I never understood why they do that. Aren't the patties on a Big Mac just the regular patties, not even the quarter pounder patties.

Must've been a bad location you went to. McDonald's fries are top tier in terms of fast food.

Yeah i’m with last stand on this one. Maccas sucks but reviewing airport-maccas is fucking retarded.
 
This is the coolest Mcdonalds restaurant I've ever been to.

McDonald's should try selling hot dogs.

Ray Kroc famously prohibited hot dogs but they were sold at Wal-Mart locations in the 1990s and a few other places. The other thing though is that for hot dogs beyond the ol' plain wiener you need additional ingredients, which is always the big problem when it comes to slow-selling or limited-time products. So you'd have to stock sport peppers, relish, sauerkraut, and others. You'd also have to have special packaging...and you'd have to put on the ingredients yourself since their stuff is all equipped to squirt burgers with it automatically.

I should clarify this wasn't at the airport, even hungry I'm not dumb enough to buy airport food. Also probably the most important point- I am a bong and I believe bongistani McDonald's fries are way worse than US fries because we do not believe in flavor.

The one thing that McDonald's doesn't typically do is reuse infrastructure. If it's a city downtown building or mall location sure, but the stand-alone buildings are almost always demolished (there have been some instances of reusing leftovers from other fast food restaurants to the point where it looks a lot like the one they replaced). Take a look at the Street View of the store in Italy, Texas and take note of the restaurant it replaced. I note that the old building would've been a hard sell as it really couldn't include a drive-through without modifying the building (and ruining the design) but I feel like completely taking it apart (which had to be done more or less by hand) could've been avoided.

yeah but it probably didn't fit with their whole franchise floorplan, including health code requirements about grease traps and deep fryers and where the fridge has to be located and distance from the kitchen to the bathroom etc.

honestly with modern construction practices, the cheapest option is often to demolish and build from scratch
