I used to be strongly opposed to gerkins in burgers in my youth, until I kind of switched overnight and now think no Big Mac is complete without them. I even started to buy actual jars of the things to have with other stuff. I am not pregnant as far as I am aware.

Anyone tried a McPlant? Had one this week, pretty sure if no one had told me I wouldn't have known it wasn't meat. Genuinely impressed.
No. Because I enjoy seared animal flesh. And I make no apologies for it.

Not a usual but during lockdown I did order a big mac meal, 3 cheese burgers, 3 chicken mayo burgers, 2 wraps of the day, 2 medium chips, 1 triple burger and 2 apple pies.
You ate it all?

It was tough but yes I finished it all. I did not feel good for a few days afterwards though.
Haha good man.
I do gut busters every so often, but most days I eat reasonably sensibly, and I do a lot of walking.

Once a day eating for me, trying to be a lot healthier as well.
I used to hate gurkhins.. Olives too.. Love them now.
I don't even mind sprouts... Must be an age thing as your tastes change.
Still not a fan of parsnip though... That's about the only thing I won't eat, unless it's mashed up into some mashed potatoe or otherwise disguised.

I’m also in the use to hate gurkhins, I use to be furious when i couldn’t spot it on my cheeseburger/Big Mac and bite into this slimy horrid thing.
Then one day, it was like a switch went off and I though not to bad.
Weird.
Last time I had a McDonald’s was a couple of years ago, their breakfasts are brilliant.

I much prefer McD's breakfasts - esp their sausage mcmuffins. Would love to have a Big Mac with the sausage patties instead of beef burgers.
Some countries sell beer in their McDs. Think its best for UK ones not to sell beer.
I don't get this fascination with McDs that people have. When the first wave of McDs drove thrus reopened, a day after they reopened, a fellow litter womble found a receipt from the nearest one to reopen. It is just under 50 miles away. How pathetic to drive almost 100 mile round trip for a tasteless burger?
Regarding gherkins. On a school trip, we went on the Dover = Calais ferry with a McDs on board. Out of the 90 of us, only 5 liked them - including me. So had 18 others' gherkins.

Had one today with the OH having a Big Mac...I'm not saying the burger was thin, but it fell out the roll and took 11 minutes to hit the floor

Three Savers double cheeseburgers, medium fries.
Open burger, remove gherkins, insert fries, replace bun lid.

My friend’s other half has noticed McDs are putting more lettuce to hide the reduced meat in burgers.
