Yeah, they’re not really any different than a regular McD shake.
Went there Thursday night - it was a higher-priced McD.
Guy in line with me saw me looking at the menu and bought my dinner. I said are you sure? (I was gonna BOGO a couple of cheeseburgers with a coupon).
Girl gave me back the coupon for later use. 2 Big Macs, large fry and large shake - $22+ - yikes.
I asked her about the BOGO - still $15+.
Now when I go to my regular McD’s, I can get 2 Quarter-Pounders with cheese and a $1 large Coke for less than $6, tax included. This particular McD is high-priced.
There are two McDs I frequent - I was getting the above for about $5.79. I just have to fill out the survey on the phone - takes 90 seconds or so. I never give out personal info, either.
Haven’t been there in a couple of months - but they’ve remained pretty steady on prices. So I give them the overwhelming majority of my non-Taco Bell fast food purchases.
I refrigerated one Big Mac and nuked it about 10:30 p.m. last night. It was fine.

Lol. We rarely eat out, cook from scratch most every day. If we do eat out, it’s infrequently from a chain of any type. Usually small mom n pop type places. The last time we ate fast food, it was probably a Chik-Fil-A a few years ago when we were on a road trip to the Florida panhandle.
I have no idea the last time I had a burger from McD’s or a taco from Taco Bell. I would guess roughly 10 years ago when we were in the middle of a move, and didn’t want to cook after working to unpack boxes all day long. It’s been a while. Both TB and McD’s are in the same shopping center as our grocery store (Kroger) and McDonald’s has a line every time I’m there. Taco Bell not so much but sometimes. Especially later in the evening.
My husband makes damn good burgers on the smoker, thick and juicy, not thin and overcooked. It’s one of my favorite things he makes, and I request it probably every 3-4 weeks. I do think I should try to see if I can make some “special sauce” sometime. Might be interesting to try, or do they market that yet? I’ll have to check in to a knock off recipe if I can. Every now and again I think about fast food, but it’s not often. I guess we just like what we make most of the time, and it’s usually cheaper (and fresher) than what we could get eating out. Seafood on the panhandle excepted.
