Sounds delish!

BBQ Bacon Quarter Pounder®* with Cheese, World Famous Fries® (Medium), Hi-C® Orange Lavaburst® (Medium)

Icon, meet icon in the Angel Reese Special for a limited time at McDonald’s.* Let’s break it down.

This 5-star meal is gonna change the game with the new BBQ Bacon Quarter Pounder®^ with Cheese. Featuring an unapologetically bold and smoky BBQ sauce with crispy bacon, this breakout QPC® is taking it to the next level. Each BBQ Bacon Quarter Pounder with Cheese is cooked when you order with a 100% fresh beef+ quarter pound patty, seasoned with just a pinch of salt and pepper, and sizzled on our flat iron grill. It’s smothered in smoky BBQ sauce and layered with crispy bacon, two slices of melty American cheese, slivered onions and tangy pickles all on a soft and fluffy sesame seed hamburger bun. The Angel Reese Special with medium World Famous Fries® and Hi-C® (or other soft drink) round out the roster and has 1230 calories.

Sandwich shops like Subway and Jersey Mikes?

There are even some fast food salad places around if you look hard enough.

Chipotle and Subway? McDonalds is better. Fast food is pretty much fast food.

What do you have against chipotle? It's really good, and it's something besides a burger and brown food (fries, buns)

I can get better Mexican food cheaper and faster other places.

I'll tell ya what I hate about Chip.

Food's OK, and less processed than McD type places.

BUT, ever time I go, apparently the person in front of me is relative or SO of the scooper for the meat.

Cause they *always* get 3 spoonfuls of whatever meat, then the guy looks at me and gives me one scoop.

Right in fronta me.

**** Chipotle.

Agreed. They used to be better. Around 2019 they started to suck. Big time.

I used to go to McDonalds about four times a month. Grab an egg Mcmuffin meal on the way to the lake and on the way home, grab a couple of regular hamburgers. I was on the way home from the lake and stopped in Clinton to get my usual order (which was around $2) and the lines were very long. I went into the store and was met with a kiosk. Once I placed my order and found it was over $4, the person at the counter had trouble dealing with cash and wanted to know how large of a tip I wanted to leave.

No more stops for hamburgers on the way home for me. I went to get my breakfast order and at $8.50 for a cold egg McMuffin, greasy hashbrowns and terrible coffee, I decided that this is enough. I'll make my own with everything from Costco and save a ton of money.

Things have sure changed a lot since you used to be able to get a cheeseburger, fries and a chocolate shake for less than $1. Just last week, we all went to the Flea Market where they had their 5oz burger for $3.

Fast food is neither fast nor really food. And it's expensive. $6 for a BigMac that has abour 3oz of burger on it.

Scandals that involve making customers sick usually have that effect.

Most fast food places suck now. When I was a kid I loved Wendy's but it's nothing like it used to be. They even changed the fries which was stupid.

Yea. Wendy’s have really declined in quality and popularity for decades. Can’t believe they are still around.

Unfortunately, McDonalds has increased their prices more than any other fast food chain. Quality has definitely suffered. I used to like Wendy's until I discovered that their slogan was: No Fry is Too Cold to Be Sold. Unlike One Punch Man, cold and limp fries are not my favorite...

What you don't like paying 13 dollars for a tortilla full of rice?

It's the bread. They could put almost anything in a JJ's loaf of bread and it would be good.

I’m always behind some soccer mom with 3-5 yard apes for children bouncing all over the place, and she’s trying to order food for them and the other 8 people at home.

Nothings ever simple either. No bowls. Bitch orders the tacos and quesadillas. All the shit that takes the longest. And makes them scoop chips and guac too.

When does she make this glorious order? Right at the height of the dinner rush, of course!
