McDonald’s new Worldwide Favorites menu — a roundup of the chains alleged top hits abroad — proves that the world’s worse off than we knew.
Each of five items, launched this week and inspired by different countries, is awful in its own way. But hideous qualities they all share make it convenient to flush the whole lot down the toilet at once — ghastly flavors, sickly mouth feel and industrial-tasting sauces.
If, as McDonald’s boasts, “Around the world is now around the corner,” no one should leave their house.
Stroopwafel McFlurry ($3.09)
Tomato Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich ($5.99)
Tomato Mozzarella Crunchy Chicken Sandwich ($5.99)
Grand McExtreme Bacon Burger ($7.59 for single patty, $8.59 for double)
Cheesy Bacon Fries ($3.99)

I don’t know...a Stroopwafel McFlurry sounds good. ;o)
Clearly the author of that article has never lived in New England where McDonalds offers a lobster roll during the summer.
How is it? Just what you would expect from a McDonald’s lobster roll.
Prices are a little high and I don’t care for tomatoes, but otherwise I’m not seeing a problem with any of that.
Still, I’m going to go with “basic is better.” Followed by “the customer is always right.”
NYC prices .
Well they are in fact, industrial sauces.
No fast food for me. It’s all terrible.
Once, when driving form Seattle to Idaho, we stopped halfway for gas, and because I was hungry, got something from McDonalds. Chicken nuggets. I had one bite and handed it back to the person at the counter.
“You call that food?” I said, loud enough for everyone to hear me. I have no clue what was in that ghastly, greasy stuff, but nothing resembling chicken. Tasted like recycled tires.
I do have to admit, for the sake of honesty, that the occasional McDonald’s chocolate shake tastes fine in an emergency. After a four-hour dentistry horror, for example, I was not going to cook at home, stopped and had a really large shake. Was grateful that they were there. My daughter was aghast. YOU stopped at McDonalds? Yep, once every five years.
I don’t know what that first thing is, but it’s probably good. The other stuff sounds fine. But a tip to the author: When something sounds icky to me, I just don’t buy it.
Tell me about it - like all McDonald’s ‘food’, it is PURE CRAP. I can’t imagine even forcing my worst enemy to eat any of their PURE CRAP.
I just get what amounts to an egg and cheese biscuit at either place, 24 hours a day @ McDonalds.
I was on vacation with my puppy dog
when we stopped at whatever the bunch
is that has chicken nuggets. The dog
wouldn’t eat ‘em and she was hungry.
Lesson learned.
Stick with Big Macs, Cheeseburgers, Quarter Pounders, Filet O’ Fish, and McNuggets and you’ll be fine. McD’s has been making these for years. They could take everything else off their menu and they still be in business.
Smart dog, may she live long and thrive.
She lived to be fifteen, which is good for dogs.
Damn, I wish they lived longer.
We are going to do as we’ve done since the 1970’s, and continue eating at favorite places other than McDonald’s. There is so much out there far superior to McDonald’s.
“Tomato Mozzarella Crunchy Chicken Sandwich ($5.99)”
I’m from Vancouver BC and there is NOTHING Canadian about this burger. IF they added fries WITH tons of mayo which is how we ate fries (with ketchup—yeah I know it sounds horrible lol) then sure, go for it..
But then, I find it hard to resist ANY food that’s got enough bacon in/on it.
The author clearly has no love of bacon, which as far as I’m concerned disqualifies him for any food review position.
“Mmmm-mm-mmm, BACON!!!”
kinda stupid
