    That place is absolutely freaking disgusting I would rather go to a Chinese buffet and pig out on crab legs. And really people can't make a hamburger themselves these days

    McDonalds doesn't have any veggie burgers in the US currently AFAIK. I wish they'd bring the ones they sell in India stateside, they sound pretty good.

    The sausage mcmuffin is tastier to me, but is quite a bit higher calories so at that point I'd usually rather have a small cheeseburger. I haven't had the BK veggie burgers, may try sometime. The closest BK to me is a pain to get to even though it's less than a mile...too many left turns.

    Next time you pass the BK , definitely stop and try the veggie burger! It really is tasty ! They put lettuce, pickles, onions, and mayo on it . now that I'm talking about it, I want one for dinner !

    No onion rings? In NZ the BK veggie burger is basically a Whopper with Cheese, but with onion rings instead of the meat. It's awesome. McD's do a salad burger (not listed on the menu so you have to know to ask for it). It's lame. The only thing it has going for it is that it uses the mayo they use in the chicken burgers. Though some restaurants will do it, some won't. Some just give you the option of getting a menu burger without the meat.

    I'd love it if they brought some of these Indian items to the US. They look very tasty to me.

    Dude. Guess what, we are all going to die.
    Everyone knows eating any food one did not grow and prepare means eating a lot of unknowns.
    What goes on in the food processing plants and back in the kitchen can still be a wild card.
    Exactly. I can say from my experience that there are so many things (some of which could be considered unethical) related to food preparation that can go on in a commercialized kitchen that people have no clue about.

    chef of 10 years... dont think people realize there are for sure some iffy ethical choices being made in the kitchen... some cooks are just *kitten* and sometimes when backed up there isnt grade a by the code cleanliness going on.

    I agree though this is everywhere not just McDonalds

    thats called life…

    some people do things the right way, others do not …so not really shocking...

    exactly the point i was making...

    Yep, much envy. Checking NZ McD's online menu, there's naught in the way of veggie burgers or wraps listed, so perhaps they've stopped again. We do have the aforementioned Creme Egg McFlurries though, and these: https://mcdonalds.co.nz/menu/loaded-fries-guacamole-and-salsa (there's bacon and cheese too).

    Definitely! I prefer the veggie burger to a Whopper, am I'm not even a vegetarian.

    Agreed. Not only for the potential kitchen practices, but the fact that a bevvy of other people got to breathe and get their grubby mitts all over the food first.

    While McD's might not be the paragon of fine dining, in my experience most (not saying all, there are some shoddy operators out there) actually do stick to the strict hygiene and cleaning protocols set by head office.

    Inspired by this thread, I went and got some medium fries in the drive-thru.

    They use vegetable oil, right?

    It's not sitting right, man. *clutches stomach*

    uBlock Origin is the best I've found so far. Works well in Firefox and Chrome; maybe others too, dunno.
