It's actually very good. Not a fan of their coffee though.

No matter how they change the process of cooking the burger... having the price double for the $15.00 an hour wage will turn me away.
I do love their coffee... but if it sell for the price expected at Starbucks... I'll stay home for coffee. |

After I found a bit of plastic inside my Egg McMuffin, I don't give a shit what they do, they're not getting my business again.
I'm not mad anymore, but my stomach turns every time I see the arches. |

Quoted:
I and others here old enough to know have complained that the McDs of today is not the McDs of yore. It appears they might be listening after 25 years. McDonald’s is tinkering with how it cooks its burgers, with the aim of winning back customers. McDonald’s said it would toast its hamburger buns longer so sandwiches would be warmer, and change the way it sears and grills its beef so that the patties are juicier. “It’s these little things that add up to big differences for our customers,” the chief executive, Steve Easterbrook, said at the Bernstein Strategic Decisions Conference in New York. Mr. Easterbrook, who stepped into his role March 1, said the changes were part of the company’s recommitment to “tastier food across the menu.” He also said the company would, as many of its rivals have, stop reporting monthly sales. I am cautiously optimistic. Does "cautiously optimistic" mean you give a fuck? McDonalds may as well announce they are toasting used tampons to hold in the juices. I will never eat in that shithole if I can help it. |

 .
I could justify $4-$6 for a burger, fries, and drink. But holy shit, you can EASILY drop $18 on two people getting numbered meal items. |

I used to love their quarter pounder and fries. But the last few years, maybe the last 8-9, it was hit or miss. Burgers would be hard and dried out, fries were like wood and tasted bitter. I finally stopped going entirely. I can get an excellent burger at In-N-Out 100% of the time.

Leno made a habit of joking about their greasy food.
He did it long enough that McDonalds upper management decided to come out with a "healthier menu" and switch to low fat burgers. The dry (low fat) burgers tasted like crap, and people lost interest in eating at McDonalds. Took their upper management long enough to realize that their "healthy" burgers taste like crap. If they expected Leno to be their main customer, then responding to his jokes may have been the right idea. Since Leno probably doesn't eat at McDonalds, their response to his jokes was stupid and cost them customers. |

A burger timer is started. Temperature of the grill is closely monitored. The patties sear on the grill until the timer tells the "chef" to flip 'em. Then they cook on the grill some more until the timer tells the "chef" to remove them. IIRC, it takes several minutes to turn a hockey puck of frozen hamburger into a fully-cooked patty. |

They don't need to flip them, a grill plate on top lowers and cooks the patties for something like 1 min-3, depending on the size (selected on the grill) and the employee removes them. Grill |

The McDouble is around $1.50, and is a very respectable burger for the money - Reminiscent of the original 19 cent burger, albeit with 2 patties and cheese. All sizes of french fries currently sell for a buck (or at least they do around here). Ditto for all sizes of soft drinks. Basically, 4 bucks gets you a decent burger, a large Coke and more fries than God ever intended a human to consume in one sitting. |
