What am I missing? They just don't look good compared to other fast food burgers.

Had one approximately 40 years ago and never again. Messy shredded lettuce covered in special jizz, err.. I mean sauce and hey what's this? An extra piece of bread in the middle for no good reason? Gross...

I haven't had a Big Mac since I was a little kid. They were a lot bigger back then!
You don't need to try one. Any burger stand that has shredded lettuce and 1000 Island on it will be better.

I haven’t had one since last October, when I got an adult happy meal. It made my stomach hurt bad for 3 days. No more of that shit.

Had one like 25 years ago maybe? Gross. The Mac Sauce fucking sucks. (but i hate when visiting California, and they want to put Thousand Island on their burgers)

Fast Food burgers...Prefer a Whopper. Wendys? NASTY.

No need to talk about In & Out, Five Guys etc, I don't consider them "fast food"

At this point they're like double stacked sliders with a mountain of pink goop inside. They're okay.

Even as a kid I wasn't a big fan of condiments and a lot of shit on my burgers (cheese, bacon, BBQ sauce at most), so I've never had one either. Nor a Whopper.

It's the sauce. When I was on the McDonald's PR business we celebrated something (maybe the 50th birthday of the Big Mac) by giving away bottles of the sauce and we had people lining up early just to get a wristband to get one. Only 10,000 were made. Here's one here. $$$.

Or maybe you were just a lot smaller!

You know…. I was thinking this awhile back.
I had a Big Mac in this last year and I couldn’t get over how small it looked.
My question is…is it the same size and just seems smaller because we’re larger, or does McDonalds actually make it smaller these days?

I'm sure shrinkflation has occurred with the Big Mac.

If you get the McDonald's app, the Big Mac meal is only $6.

I never eat McDonalds except for the fries as a once-in-a-while thing. The app gives away fries with a minimum $1 purchase. Their fries and Coke are still the best around, and I can get both for less than a $1.50 through the app.

When I worked on the McD account team the #1 rule was to never discount fries, as people would pay full price for them and we didn't want to cheapen their value. We didn't even put a small fry on the $1 menu. We'd get you to pay $1 for a McChicken and $1.49 for a small fry, $1.99 for a med, and $2.49 for a large.

McD Fry facts. They are NEVER in an environment that's not higher than 32 degrees, at least here where I am. The train that deliveries them to the distribution center literately pulls into a freezer/warehouse to be unloaded.

Another fun McDonald's fact: When we launched Frozen Strawberry Lemonade you paid more for lemons at the grocery store due to the amount of Lemon's the McD purchased Nationally for the launch. Simple supply and demand. Same with cuties when we put them in our Happy Meals.
