First the bread, now this?

Are they going to find out if the meatballs are made of meat or not?

I find if I have Maccas I can’t have dessert with a meal. It’s too much.

But thinking a McFlurry run might deffo have to be on the cards to try this!!

Speaking of McDonald’s, here is an ad for McDonald Land from the early seventies.

Same serving size IMO, it just doesn’t have giant oversized packaging anymore when it was actually still a mcflurry (when the mix-ins were well, mixed in with the special spoon), before it was changed to a cup of softserve with toppings sprinkled over it.

The RRP of it been up to $4.50 though depending on store location makes it a rip-off regardless.

Had Hungry Jacks for the first time in years last week. The only positive to the burgers is that they feel less sickening than Maccas burgers do.

Portions are much smaller, the patties are about on par with the golden arches equivalent. Chips are nicer but suffer from the same portion problem.

2 stars.

That’s your issue, you’ve gone and acquired a cup instead of a plant holder.

I had the Birthday McFlurry at McDonald’s at Forest Hill Chase yesterday. It took 10 minutes to make one (most of the time was on baking the custard pie, cooling it down, and then cutting it down to pieces as toppings). It was quite tasty.

McDonald’s is again trying to sell bread and milk at the drive-thru. I wonder how long it will last this time?
