The McD's around here will not make any of those for you. You have to buy the components and put them together yourself. It's also cheaper to buy the individual sandwiches then the pieces it seems. Like an extra sausage patty here is 1.50, but a sausage McMuffin costs 1.15.

Wendy's is pretty good overall, but the BAD Wendy's locations are fucking unbelievably bad.

If you're ever driving on I-95 through Rhode Island, never, ever, ever, ever, ever eat at the Wendy's off Exit 3.

If you put a Wendy's in the movie Deliverance, that would be it.
Good point, that is true. Wendy's is very inconsistent, I have a terrible one near where I live but another that is pretty close that is on point.

The bad Wendy's are pretty bad

Here's what I don't understand about Chick-fil-a. How can they afford to have 20 goddamned people standing behind the register taking orders/filling orders/manning the drivethru. Theres so many damn employees they can barely move. When I go through the drivethru there's like 5 people working the 1 window. How in the hell can they pull that off and make any money when my local Wendy's/McDonalds/Burger King has 1 slow as hell doofus working the window and maybe 1 or 2 other people inside helping customers. Chik-fil-a easily has 3x the employees as a normal fast food restaurant. Same with Jimmy Johns vs Subway/Quiznos/any other sub shop. There's like 8 people making sandwiches at a Jimmy Johns, and you're lucky if you ever see more than 2 at a Subway.

I appreciate the speedy service, but something weird is going on there, I can't see how those places pay so many extra employees and stay in business.
They charge $8 for a fucking salad. With no side or drink

The articles have all said the same.

A buck fifty for a patty of some of the worst sausage in existence? I've never had any of their sausage that didn't have one or two pieces of gristle and/or bone in it. It ruins the glory of the McGriddle. I think only maybe canned sausage is worse but I don't have the courage to attempt eating that shit.

I got them to make me the double quarter pounder big mac yesterday. It was good, but very messy. Idk if it was just because they put too much big mac sauce on it or not. The McGangbang is my goto though. You can basically get that, a small fry, and a drink for under $5 and be pretty satisfied.

I had no idea the chicken mcgriddle was considered a secret menu item. I made it myself from inspiration from the mcgangbang. It's a great combination of flavors and worth trying out.

I can't remember the last time I went to a McDonald's and the staff looked like a group of people I would want to say "I'd like a McGangbang" to.

Usually I just make it myself, but the one time I went and got them for everyone in my office I had to get down and order them correctly. I kind of just played it stupid like I didn't know what the name of it was and the chick ended up saying " o' you want a mcgangbang"

I'm on a mission to get that 1035 this weekend.

mcgangbang is a
mcdouble - hamburger bun, 2 beef patties, cheese, onions, pickles, ketchup, mustard +
mchicken - hamburger bun, mchicken, shredded lettuce, mayo

are they putting a smooshed mchicken sandwich in-between a mcdouble? (bread and all)

I use a hot n spicy as the chicken sandwich and I do keep the bread. It makes for a big sandwich, but helps fill me up a bit more for such a cheap ass sandwich.

Saw these at a local BK.. I was too afraid to try them, but I feel like I might need to for this thread

Burger King Is Testing Doritos-Encrusted Cheese Triangles for Some Unknown Reason - Eater
They were a smash hit at 7-Elevens a while ago (as the article mentions). They looked great, but I never got around to trying them as they were only available in inner-city D.C. 7-Elevens in my area for some reason, and as much as I love all things Doritos, I'm not risking rape/shot/mug to get them! If I see these at my local BK I will definitely give them a try, though.

In 'n' Out Burger, at least around here, are very similar. Maybe not as completely white, but thin and happy, and refreshingly high school/college aged for a change.

I tried these and they are very underwhelming. You barely taste the Dorito before the shitty cheese center takes over.

I was at In-N-Out once when it was super crowded and there was a pregnant chick finishing the burgers and her pregnant belly was hanging on the table where she was putting on buns and sauce and such and it was all covered with ketchup/mustard/mayo/thousand island. It didn't exactly keep me from eating my burger but it was sort of gross.
