Is McDonald’s New Sweet Corn Cone Good?

We put it to the lick test.

McDonald’s Nasi Lemak Burger is back with a couple of new sidekicks, like some rather dull potato wedges - and this rather interesting Sweet Corn Cone ($1). It tastes like the fast food chain's well-loved vanilla soft serve ice cream perfumed with a subtle corn flavour.

It’s reminiscent of the old-school slab version between wafer biscuits you get from the ice cream cart uncle, but softer, creamier and smoother.

It would’ve been even yummier if it were studded with crunchy corn kernels. Still, it’s pretty refreshing in this current hot weather.

Worth trying, we say.

Available at all McDonald's dessert kiosks.

I don’t want kernels of corn in my
ice cream, but thanks for asking.

Yum! GMO franken-corn to go along with your GMO franken-burger.

McDonald’s is not real food.

Woman shares a photo of a McDonald's cheeseburger and fries that hasn't rotted in TEN YEARS

The McDonald's burger and fries which has been left on a plate for 10 years. Reddit user standbacknow posted a photo of the food and said someone he knew had bought in April 2006. The food has no visible mould and simply looks dry and hard

I know it won’t make a lick of difference, but since McDonalds came out with their rainbow french fry container, I’ve decided to drive past them rather than drive through. Then I noticed a commercial for McDonalds - lots of occasions for celebrating at McDonalds. The “wedding” shot was a female kissing another female. So, I’m done like dinner. I don’t eat fast food very often, but I did like McDonald’s fries, and their coffee is the best. Or should I say, WAS the best.

A lot of people reported that the coffee was great, but it was vomitous every time I tried it.

In most regions, most markets. It was just vile.

I haven’t had this, but I’ve had corn ice cream and it’s very good. The corn is pureed in the making - no corn kernels.

I wouldn't know, I haven't eaten McDonald's food since I got a total of 10 pieces of French fries, each about 2” long with my burger meal. Ripped off by them once, that’ll never happen again.
