McDonalds seems to get a lot of hard critisism on DS.

So here's a thread for those who don't care about the additives, the mountains of salt, the 'rumours' and the reused scraps.

Here's a thread for people who can see past all that and admit they love enjoying the odd Mickey D's.

Usually when I go to a fast food joint I get the same thing over and over. But McDonalds just has so much variety I can get something different.

Last time I went I got the festive burger with cheese and bacon (was very filling). Also the chicken legend is great. I love the deli meals, especially the meatball melts. Chicken nuggets are amazing and even better are the chicken selects. And of course you just cant beat the classic Big Mac.

i like mcdonalds but the festive cheese bites werent great

I love Big Macs. I weaned myself off McD's through most of 2007, then in December I overdosed on Big Macs.

*Raises hand*

They're ok, I eat one if there's nothing else to eat, but can't see why they're as popular as they are.

I love Big Mac, Quarter Pounder, Chicken Mcsandwich and often enjoy the specials they bring outThe fries are nice and Mcflurries are lovely

i love McDonald's!
My local one shut down recently
i don't really buy anything from there exceot the occassional McFlurry--but there isn't much point of them in the middle of winter

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm big tastys. oh and big breakfasts cant beat them

Big breakfasts were once a very guilty pleasure of mine. You could almost feel yourself putting on the pounds but God, it was worth it.

I don't use them very often, but occasionally have a craving for fries and fillet o fish or some onion rings etc, but the last time I went in one (and it wasn't busy) The food was cold, they missed part of my order (luckily I checked rather than driving off), the staff were miserable and unhelpful and ... that was it ! The food being cold was the killer though, they couldn't even reheat it properly

That sort of killed it stone dead for me, not been back in the last 6 months or so, or had those cravings anymore !


I hear they're still popular with the likes of Joey Barton though!

I hate loving McDonalds but here I am in this thread!

I love :

The Fries athough BK fries come close IMO
McChicken Sandwich - its the mayo that does it for me!
Big Mac
Sausage and Egg Bagel
Hash browns
Sausage and Egg MuffinBig Breakfasts
Quarter Pounder with Cheese

I usually only have a burger maybe once a year, but when I do I always go for Burger King as I find they actually have a taste and not limp lettuce like Maccy D's burgers.

I do like their strawberry milkshakes on a hot day though (my heart it stopping even thinking about them, but I do like them).

Bacon and Egg Bagels are my weakness, and on the rare occasion I am near one too late for a bagel, big macs

I wish they did Breakfast all day.

yes, me too, I would always have the bagels though

I love McDonalds. Been my downfall in gaining a lot of weight I think over the past year. However, I've now discovered that I can still enjoy it as a weekly treat by having the Happy Meal! No laughing! If I have the chicken nuggets meal, it's just over 400 cals, which isn't too bad and quite filling enough for me for a lunchtime. Only trouble was I used to keep getting the same guy serve me, and I say oh I don't want the toy, cos it's for me, so he gave me large fries instead! Defeating the object. So now I say nothing and give the toy to a friends little girl.

I love the fries, I love the Choccie Milkshakes, the McFlurries, the Chicken Sandwich, The Fillet-o-Fish, the Cheeseburgers, and I used to love the Deli Roast Veggie Melt, and was gutted when the stopped doing it and did the yucky one covered in Chili sauce instead. I also used to love the Quorn burger, but they stopped doing that too, it's partly what stopped me being veggie anymore, cos it meant I had to turn to chicken!

I used to like the big breakfasts, but the last time I went into McDonald's and had one, I found they'd stopped giving you the hash brown that went with it! I only got the muffin, scrambled egg and sausage patty.

Very disappointed, their hash browns are lovely but I resent paying extra for one. Big breakfasts arent that big anymore, certainly not at McDonalds in Middlesbrough.

I love McDonalds but I gotta be honest I try my best to avoid them. I've really gotten into this whole thing of emulating their products.

My Sausage & Egg McMuffin is as good as theirs imo and my Cheeseburger is pretty damn good. I'm gonna have a go at making my own Big Mac and Special sauce soon; there's recipes all over the net so hopefully one is good.

The one thing I hate about McDonald's is the limited edition burgers they do. I still remember this one I had back in the mid 90s called the 'Hollywood Melt'. It came with chilli fries that you shake the seasoning in the bag and I absolutely loved it. 10+ years later that burger still haunts me.

Bring it Back!

I go to McDonalds when I'm constipated, it's the best cure available

The milkshakes are to die for in my opinion

No, but the sweet onion chutney they came with was delicious.

I've got a recipe if you want me to email it to you. I've not tried it personally - got it off someone else on the net - but I know some people who have and say it turned out the same as a McDonalds Big Mac.

My guilty pleasure is a double sausage and egg mcmuffin, which I always enjoy. The rest of their menu doesn't do much for me though.

I used to go McDonalds regularly, but now I don't at all. My favourite has to be the bacon and egg mcmuffin, which I absolutely love, but I often can't be asked getting there by 11am.

Gherkins!!!

I love them on the burgers.
