Poll: McDonalds Gherkins

[Kosmiche]

I'd go to BK over MCD's everytime but yeah I do like them.

Awful things would never eat them!

I think Heinz Dill Pickle is ment to be similar, also for the mustard get some French's.

Whats new in the world of pickles then lads? Have a lump of beef roasting in the oven and am more excited about having it cold with some dijon and pickles than I am with my yorkshire puds!

Polish pickled gherkins is where it's at.

I thought this post was in La Cuisine, strange.

Yes Polish ones seem to be the better ones I've tried so far, the more obscure brand the better.

My hands used to smell like them after everytime I worked there.

They used to come in huge 5 gallon sacks when I worked there for 3 weeks, 13 years ago

Sacks? Did you have to chop them then?

When I was at BK they came in huge drums in vinegar pre-chopped.

I heard they only put them in to meet salt content targets.

remove any gherkins on site.

And you believe such rubbish?

Gherkins are amazing, ditch the watery tomato instead. Gherkins taste amazing and bring freshness and moisture.

I like them and my partner gives me hers too, so i get to double up.

I like to make pickles, but one thing I've never understood is why can't you buy natural gherkins so I can make my own?

They're re just baby cucumbers, although they usually do use a particular species. And shops don't like selling baby stuff due to costs.

I keep trying to grow them, but everything loves eating them.

I like gherkins now, but I used to hate that slice of snot they put in burgers. I can't tell if my taste has changed significantly or if I was just put off trying any decent gherkins for a long time because of the experience of having had that stuff in the burgers.

Lidl Sweet Pickled Gherkins are pretty close to McD's, they normally pickled them with diced garlic, dill and diced sweet red pepper. They taste awesome.
When I worked at McD's about 7/8 years ago a few of us got permission to bring In some jars and take some home, Manager said it was better they went home with us and got eaten than thrown on the carpark floor

I love them. Gives the burger a little zing.

 

[DIABLO]

People that remove the Gherkins, why not just ask for a burger without them? Also ensures the burger you get is freshly cooked.

I love these gherkins. They are incredible and I've never had others that taste so delicious. As may other gherkin lovers do, I love collecting them from friends at McDonalds. Fantastic.
