What do you order at Mcdonalds? (If you go there)

Mmmmm, McDonalds. Yumm-O!

Half pounder cheeseburger has nearly 50g of protein. If I'm in the mood I could fit one in my day for sure, but I'm generally not a fan of McD's and would rather go for a burger from the local fish and chip shop.

Fish sandwich, medium fries and probably water to drink. But I haven't been there in a while.

um... nothing

I really do not go there. Not because I think fast food is "evil" (love burgers at Steak N' Shake or Culver's occasionally, and sometimes DQ mini Blizzard or nuggets at Chick-Fil-A)...but McDonald's just isn't my favorite. In fact I do not like the taste of their food very much.

The last 4-5 times I have gone to McDonald's (the past 2 years roughly) I have always had a dipped cone. Those are delish IMO.

I do like their sausage breakfast burritos but I have found that one is not enough food for me and two is too much (or at least too much sodium, ugh). My husband doesn't like it so we never go there on trips, and trips are the usual times I get breakfast out.

I feel the same as you do. I regularly buy my coffee there, because at least here in Mexico City the coffee is the way a like it; hot and on the strong side and very affordable. I personally boycott Starbucks because of their poor quality and high prices ( same as in the US even though the averagge professional Mexican earns 20% of what someone for a similar job would earn in the US ) so I am happy the McD's coffee is good.
I have not tried their food in almost 20 years with the exception of the fries, but I always thought that it was in general too sweet for me and the soft hamburger bun makes me gag. However McD's is not the exception.....I feel the same about all the other fast food chains. And since they have only burgers and ice cream here none of them are an option. Also, a normal burger costs just under 5 dollars which is 8 hours of minimum wage here. For that money I can get a three course ( soup, salad or pasta and main course ) meal almost anywhere else.

ETA: For truth's sake I should add that in the last ten years or so I tried their cheese pie with coffee and liked it.....but not enough to walk 40 minutes to the next McD's. I also tried their hashbrowns and they were good, but can be bought frozen in most supermarkets....but now I avoid them , because they are pre-fried and have too much cheap fat....but that is not McD's fault.

Barely ever go to McDonald's, but if I do -
Breakfast - Oatmeal or egg white delight.
Lunch or Dinner - Southwest chicken salad with Southwest dressing.
Snack - Fruit & Yogurt parfait, side salad with balsamic or southwest dressing.

When I go for the kids, it is usually because we are on the run and no time to cook at home. I usually order a kids chicken snack wrap meal, made with grilled chicken and the mini fries with a milk. I haven't really looked at the nutritional info, but the rest of the day I ensure better choices made at home.

Regular hamburger and I toss half the bun....

Sausage burrito - I use a fork and eat the egg and sausage and toss the tortilla.

Yes, I am trying to watch carbs! I'd rather have a beer than a bun! :drinker:

Haha I couldn't agree more on that!

Non in a 5 mile radius thankfully. But sometimes I order double sausage and egg mcmuffin with mocha. Or regular Big Mac and diet coke for lunch . I've steered clear these last few weeks, too many calories and I can eat them until the cows come home!

THis reminds me of a similar "sandwich" at KFC, also called the Double Down I believe, where the 2 chicken breasts sandwiched the lettuce and perhaps a tomato (to make it, you know, HEALTHY ) and some bacon IIRC. It was DELICIOUS...but I don't even wanna know how many calories/fat grams.
