I haven’t done it in years, but trick to making your own BIG MAC sauce is by rehydrating dried minced onions. The kind you buy in the spice aisle at your supermarket. Once you’ve rehydrated the onions, you can mix them with thousand island or a ketchup/mayonaise mixture.

There is nothing else special about a Big Mac. It uses the same meat patties they put on their hamburgers and cheese burgers, except that they add lettuce too.

Run with it Don. Everyone consumes them. While gas is a necessity a Big Mac is for ones eating pleasure and they’ve taken it away.

I end up at McDonalds a lot as the daughter wants (and I spoil her). I use the mobile app and if nothing else they have 25% off over $5 deal. Often they have a BOGO for Big Macs. Our last trip I got her a free happy meal using reward points.

And you know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?

[JULES]
They don’t call it a Quarter Pounder with Cheese?

[VINCENT]
No, they got the metric system there, they wouldn’t know what the ____ a Quarter Pounder is.

[JULES]
Then what do they call it?

[VINCENT]
They call it Royale with Cheese.

[JULES]
Royale with Cheese. What do they call a Big Mac?

[VINCENT]
Big Mac’s a Big Mac, but they call it Le Big Mac.

The only time I visit McDonald’s is when traveling OR when there are no other choices and I’m in a hurry. It’s perhaps 1-2 times annually.

Order a McDouble and have them put big mac sauce and lettuce on it. No charge.
A big mac without the extra bun.

It’s not real meat. It’s lab grown

The report is currency based and does not consider the many other cost variables. It is therefore irrelevant as a currency indicator

In the mid-60s MacDonalds’ All American meal consisted of a hamburger, milk shake and fries, for 50 cents. I remember our small town McDonalds advertising the meal endlessly.

Philippines: $2.86


A few yrs back I stopped at a McDonald’s somewhere on Luzon. Specifically, looking for unsweetened tea. Decided to eat there. No Big Macs were on the menu...none. Only one, single patty burger. Now spaghetti, fried chicken, rice were advertised.

Maybe Micky-Ds in the metros carries them. But this specific one was way out in a small town...middle of nowhere and probably catered to the locals.

The only fresh meat they use is on their quarter-pounders.
