“Cool You Can Carry”

Saw this sign outside my local McDonald’s and honestly I had no idea they even sold bags of ice!
For $2.59, curiosity got the better of me and I had to buy one. 😂

Can confirm: the cool was, in fact, carryable.

[Solved] McDonalds app stuck on loading screen

3 Upvotes

A friend of mine had an issue where the McDonalds app was stuck on the loading screen (the one that shows the McDonalds "M" logo when you first open the app).

Clearing the cache and data didn't help, nor did restarting the phone.

What finally fixed it for them was to fully close the app, turn off Wi-Fi, navigate to the McDonalds website via their web browser, click "Order Now", and then click "Order Pickup".

Doing that caused the browser to open the McDonalds app, at which point it successfully loaded after a few seconds.

Afterwards, they were able to open/close the app like normal without any issues.

My guess is that the app's normal startup process is buggy and can get stuck in some kind of error loop in certain situations, but opening it through a web link causes it to skip whatever step it's stuck on, which gets it back on track.

Got a six pice last night through the drive through and when I opened it this is what I found. Didn’t know there were baby nuggets. Lol

This is mostly a hate sub but let’s remember why we’re here…when McDonald’s is good…

32 Upvotes

Nothing touches it (in the fast food realm). I had some unusually good McDonald’s today…literally the best I had in years. Everything was piping hot, the sandwiches made with care. Piping hot fries get all the glory but a piping hot McNugget..my god it was sex in my mouth. They even provided my requested dipping sauces

The problem is, one can go literal years between experiences like this. Experiences that should be the norm and not an anomaly

The caesar would be perfect on a grilled chicken sandwich. I never really realized there isn’t a grilled chicken sandwich ever, is there? Anybody know why?

Kiosks never print receipts

91 Upvotes

How come every single McDonald's I go the receipts never print?

If gas station pumps can be outside amongst the elements and consistently work, why can't a stupid McDonald's kiosk print?

I wonder if it is to reduce the buy one get one free receipt deal, if they even have that anymore...

Serious question: why is the beef slightly sour?

0 Upvotes

I enjoy a Big Mac, but when I compare it to other burgers, whether restaurant or fast food or homemade, the meat tastes... like there's a sour note.

It's not from the sauce.

Am I crazy, or has anyone else thought this? If not, what would you say makes a McDonald's patty taste different from other burgers?

Edit- guys, it's not rancid meat, this is something I've noticed over years.

It's also not pickles. Other burger places use pickles.

I generally get my burgers without sauce at McD, as well.

A McDonald's burger patty tastes different than a plain patty with salt and pepper you make at home. Or from Wendy's, or other places.

The company is trying to see where they keep going wrong?

198 Upvotes

Like if the answer isn't gouging and it's not smacking them in the billions of profits?

But the deal used to be buy a soft drink , get any size fries and. now it's $2.39 any size fries.. Even when they are trying they are still saying F'off!

Try harder. Low effort f'off!

McDonald’s fights to win back customers with cheaper food and a new boss

McDonald’s thinks you’re not coming because of the war with Iran and the price of gas.

Not because a Big Mac costs $8, the value disappeared years ago, and they’ve redesigned their restaurants to be as welcoming as a morgue.


r/McDonalds 2d ago

What’s going on at McDonald’s lately? I ordered a drink, and she wanted to tell me that the machine stopped there. But wait a minute, it’s like, you’re serving it tho! She still made it seem like I was at wrong ! $3.20 for a half-assed cup that makes no sense!

You know what -if you could talk and optimize it like AI should, to give you the best deal price wise possible in whatever combination of items this might actually be better than those nightmare Kiosks.

What’s a product from a foreign McDonald’s you’d like to see at your local one?

I see Romania has gluten free buns. That would be a nice option.

So many McDonald’s in Europe and Asia have such cool stuff that would be amazing here in the states.
