Why , you got to make burgers anyway, whats the difference if you dont have to add the onion & the pickle, its actually less work for you.

Well, you wouldn't understand if you haven't worked at maccas before. The last thing you want to be doing is making a grill if you are trying to keep up production levels during a mad rush. That means someone has to go out of their way to make you a burger. But, being onions you don't like, I totally understand. The worst are when they ask for burgers without pickles. 99% of people that order it aren't allergic to pickles, so damn, pick that s**t out!

I've stopped working there about 3 years ago. Now adays though, it's all "Made For You", so it's easy to get a grill without complaints because each burger is made to order. I hate "Made For You", the burgers aren't the same, it's missing that greassy texture, plus the burgers haven't had time to melt the cheese and all that, so it seems a bit plastic like to me.

I cant stand Mcdonalds, Big Mac is the size of a chicken nugget. Burger King has far better burgers, and a wopper is a wopper, 10X the size of the big mac. Best burger in the world is the Burger Kings Chicken Wopper.

I usualy prefer to suport independents, local shops. Havent been to mcdonalds in 8+ years, and rarely go to Burger King.



Also I found that Mcdonalds in Canada (all of Americas?) have greasier burgers, and use diferent ingredients, Like eggs from a carton, bacon strips instead of eye.

Mainly because I dont have to ask for them to not put onion on my burger as the double cheeseburger doesnt come with onion & the pickles are easily discarded. Every burger at Maccas comes with onion so Im always having to ask for a 1/4 grill & have to wait.



No, Premium chicken burger, Fillet 'o' fish, McChicken and pretty much all the deli rolls don't have onion. I work t Maccaz and it's fine, I'm also vegetarian so yeah, if I can take it I think most people can, Oh and phat, you ahve to hate wash up more man, it takes like 2 or more hours and is pretty much just wading shoulder deep in a fetid food product milkshake. Firzen, results have proven HJ's is worse for you than mickey D's, God dammit Super-size me was a stupid movie, eat any one type of food product for taht long and you'll get sick, people who get roped in to it and think it's some form of proof that McDonalds is really really bad for you are idiots. I think I'll go eat KFC for a month and see if it makes me sick, anyone want to give me a movi deal? Either way, I think both places are bad, avoid at all costs!

I didn't mind washup. It gets me off the floor at least. Our store use to do pretty early pre-closes (by about 9pm, for close at 11pm) and by close, most of washup was done. I worked at a store that closed at 11pm at night, so we would be rostered till 12:30am, but usually finish by around 12.

no way ralox, hj's is the bomb-digity - their sweet 'n sour sauce is the ****! i order grills every time i go to macca's now-a-days. after working there when i was a young chap, i was scarred by what i saw - burgers sitting there for an hour, people swapping the time tags so they don't have to make a new batch of 1/4ers/mcfeast (that was a long time ago! ) a word of advice - when your at macca's and you hear someone say 'what a catch!' turn around and walk out that door... the only thing i loath about hj's is that they dont put cheese on their stuff. its always something + cheese. it ****s me to tears when i get home after ordering with cheese and its not there!

Never been to BK but go to Maccers ocasionally when I have the desire for some junk food.
Super Size me is a stupid film as mentioned before you eat the same thing over and over for a month you'll get sick. Fast food is not what makes you fat, it's slackers that gorge them selfs with the junk food everyday and don't exercise, moderation is the key just eat it occasionally.

What is it? Something must have grossed you out.
My mate told me KFC's gravy is the overflow of fatty stuff from the frier's...don't know if that's true or not...sure looks like it though.

I've watched a cow go through an abattoir so I'm sure a weird ingredient wouldn't stop me eating it...ignorance is bliss.

edit: Found the new secret ingredient.

I do a lot of work for the meat industry, abattoirs and the such. McDonalds burgers in Australia are made of realy good quality Australian Beef. with very little quality control issues.

That's what you think. But the crap they use can range from cow's arses or cow's testicals. Yummy. Exactly what they put in Balfouls or other crap brand Pie's.

how big is a cow's arse or testicles? if they do use that stuff then i'm sure all of us would've eaten a very tiny amount, after it's been minced, grounded up, and mixed together with the hundreds of pounds of beef.

anyway, as long as it tastes good and doesn't kill you, then who cares right?
