How do you explain the findings of the film supersize me? also why do u feel hungry agian after eating a mcdonalds in about 30 mins even if u have abig meal? fair enough your food does taste nice but please have some honesty and admit it is not good quality food

McDonald's agrees with the central premise of the film that eating too much food and doing too little exercise is not good for you – however McDonald's believes customers here in the UK could see that film as an example of an extreme diet.
With regard to the meal, everyone has a different digestion rate and food requirements which can affect how hungry they may feel and how much they need to eat to feel full. McDonald's food uses ingredients like you can buy in the supermarket or use at home. Eating a McDonald's burger shouldn't make you feel any more or less full than if you ate another burger of a similar size.

-
The majority of customers enjoy the burgers as they are and the gherkin is one of the special ingredients that make a McDonald's burger unique. There has always been a great debate around whether McDonald's burgers taste better with or without the gherkins. Some people love them, others don't, and that's OK. However, if you would like a burger without a gherkin, please request this when you order.

-
McDonald's does not believe that its burgers are tasteless and there are millions of McDonald's customers who may disagree with you too. A pinch of salt and pepper is added to the burgers after cooking for seasoning and taste.

What are these? Delicious Digg Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon - 52. why does my drive thru burger look totally different to one which I buy in the restaurant?I check the quality before I drive off so its not transit that causes it to look like a rushed mess in a box.
-
McDonald's apologises for this. There should be no difference between the presentation of a burger that's ordered in restaurant or through the drive-thru lane; both are made and handled in exactly the same way. If you are ever unhappy with the way that your burger is presented, then please ask for a replacement.

The double cheeseburger was on this menu and cost 99p. Now it is £1.19 and still on this menu... Why have you banished the USP of this menu and increased prices when you clearly don't need to?
-
McDonald's Pound Saver Menu represents a great value menu for a selection of menu items that are not part of a meal. Items on the Pound Saver Menu range in price from 69p upwards. Pricing depends on each item and in the case of the double cheeseburger this is more expensive as it is one of the more substantial items on the menu.

What are these? Delicious Digg Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon - 55. Hi, I noticed that your advice to a customer wishing to comment on the menu, is to phone a number, and make a suggestion. However, this seems like a lot of work to make a quick suggestion. I'd be more than happy to fill in a 'comments' form at a restaurant, but perhaps this would create too much work for the staff. Would a system like this be possible?
-
There are a number of options for making suggestions about the menu or comments about the services offered by McDonald's including via a Customer Comment card available in restaurant. This site merely offers the internet as one way of reaching the Customer Services team online or by telephone if people want a more direct means of communication. (July 2007)

-
McDonald's burgers have traditionally been called sandwiches as they consist of two slices of bread (bun) between which a filling is layered; the definition of a sandwich. This isn't a dietary classification per se.

McDonald's is very pleased to hear that this site has reassured you on the quality of the ingredients that make up its menu items. The company introduces new promotional and permanent products on a regular basis - you might like to try the new Chicken Selects or look out for the new Chicken sandwich that will be in restaurants from October.

-
Mmmm. That's a bit of a poser and might be one of the first questions asked that can't be answered with any great speed, since the company does not keep this kind of information. However, the team here will keep trying to dig up the answer and, in the meantime a small fact to keep you going, the most popular meal worldwide is the Big Mac meal. (June 2007)

What are these? Delicious Digg Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon - 60. If hamburgers are made from 100% beef (cow meat), why are they called "hamburgers" and not "beefburgers"? I ask this question as ham is obviously meat from a pig!! Please explain why the need for such ridiculous incorrectness!?!
-
That is an interesting question. The answer has nothing to do with what it’s made of, but where it comes from. The word "Hamburger" comes from Hamburg, Germany, which is where the first hamburger was made.
