McDonald’s has launched a limited edition “Irish” burger, called the McMór. A Sinn Féin MLA has branded it “partitionist” because it will only be available in the Republic of Ireland.
The fast food chain has called the burger, which will only be available for six weeks, a “tribute to the best produce and the finest flavors from across Ireland.”
The McMór, which McDonald’s is marketing as Gaelic for Big Mac, is made with 100% Irish beef, a “potato-flaked” bun, bacon, shredded cabbage, kale, Ballymaloe Relish and Charleville Cheddar, the Belfast Telegraph reports.
West Tyrone MLA Barry McElduff told the Irish News: “It is not ‘mór go leor’ (big enough) because it does not incorporate the six counties. If it’s available in Letterkenny, then it should be available in Omagh,” he said. …

The “secret sauce” better include some Guinness!
That actually sounds pretty darn good.
I was thinking the same thing.
No thanks. I’ve sworn off Guinness over their support of you know what in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade and their threats of boycott. Same goes for other stouts like Murphy’s and Beamish, whose owner has done the same. Any Irish stout I drink in the future has to be un-politicized; if I can find O’Hara’s, then that’ll be it, but they’re in limited distribution in the US.
Headed to Dublin tomorry. I’ll see if I can find it.
Yikes, with some of those ingredients, you’ll be headed to the McToilet.
Everything you eat should partially end up in the McToilet.
Else you end up in the McEmergency Room.
My ex ate a McFish and she got the McFood Poisoning.
My family,including my 89 year old father, eat two filet-o-fish and large fries every Friday during Lent for the last 30 years.
We have never gotten sick. No one . Not even once.
You must have cast-iron stomachs. I cannot make such a claim. Besides, I prefer flame-broiled burgers from Burger King.
I’d break my diet for that concoction.
Looks good to me. Probably because of the Scots-Irish-Italian DNA in me. Sadly, it does look a little small for the average Irish appetite. And it definitely needs more bacon.
I think it might be a nice alternative to the usual pink slime stuff served by the Mickey D’s in the USA.
I am surprised someone has not offered a “Haggis” burger yet. That’ll clean your pipes.
McNuggets are not pink slime.

Sorry, I was referring to burgers, not chicken. That's what McDonalds used to serve when I was growing up. Hamburgers were 15 cents and cheeseburgers were 20 cents. And they were really good and contained real beef and cheese (before beef and cheese were redefined to contain other things). They used to have the number sold on their Golden Arches signs until they ran out space trying to keep track of the billions and billions sold.
I had to go to Kentucky Fried Chicken if I wanted chicken. I don't recall chicken nuggets or tenders being on the KFC (or McDonalds) menu back then. Anyway the chicken came with a bone in it. My grandsons are still in awe that a piece of chicken has bones and nuggets don't. Of course they prefer nuggets and chicken tenders since they don't have any bones.

Yes, the European socialists (and a some here in America) are Anti-American anything Americans have successfully invented, developed, built, or marketed for profit through individual effort. Socialists promise everyone a (free) "chicken in every pot" but always fail to deliver due to unexpected shortages or planning and distribution problems. But instead of the anticipated chicken, the committee is always pleased to announce there will be no shortage of turnips this year and everyone is guaranteed to get their share (if they hurry to get in line). And they can keep their old pot if they want to.
That sounds down right edible.
