- 1. Am I allowed to ask for Big Mac sauce instead of ketchup in my Double Cheeseburger?
-
This shouldn't be a problem, however, grill orders such as yours are usually granted at the discretion of the restaurant manager, Just make the crew member serving you aware of what you would like and they'll relay this back to the kitchen. Please note that you will still be charged for your Big Mac at its current price.

I was eating a Big Mac the other day and I found something very strange in my burger, It was a circular disc circle of a dark green thing. I thought It looked a bit strange, but I ate it anyway because i was hungry. It was salty... What was it?
-
Sounds like the gherkin that is part of the legendary Big Mac. Hope you enjoyed it!

Over the years you have experimented with your current menu and also introduced new menu items but why have you never messe around with the big mac? Why not make a big mac with bacon or extra cheese for instance? Surely this would be a popular choice as the big mac is legendary!
-
No changes are made to the Big Mac for the very reason that it is legendary. Most customers order the Big Mac because it’s a classic and never has additional toppings – it’s a taste customers know and love. However, you might like to know that a Big Tasty with Bacon has been launched as a promotional item this Christmas. Why not give this a try? McDonald’s hopes that you enjoy it. If you’d like to make a menu suggestion, you can give the Customer Services team by visiting the ‘Contact Us’ section at www.mcdonalds.co.uk.

-
The sandwiches are made in a particular order so that they can be served to you freshly and quickly, and careful preparation ensures that the burgers don’t fall apart. However, despite every effort made by the crew members, sometimes, in a busy environment such as McDonald’s an order isn’t perfect. If you are ever unhappy with your food, please bring it to the attention of the restaurant manager.

-
McDonald’s isn’t holding back – it’s just that the amount of sauce on a Big Mac is the exact amount needed to balance its ingredients and tastes developed over many years of listening to customers. If you would like an extra dollop ask at the counter and the staff should be able to make you one to order.

Why is that it that McDonalds employees in this country seem unable to put together a big mac without it looking like a bombs gone off in there! They're NEVER neat and together. Show some pride in your work! Having eaten at McDonalds in Japan, I know that it can be done so why can't you be bothered in this country??/
-
McDonald’s staff members are trained to prepare Big Macs in the correct way. But sometimes, during busy periods, burgers may not look as good as they should do. If you feel that you burger is presented in an unsatisfactory way, please speak to the manager on duty and ask for a replacement.

-
Food preparation is very important to McDonald’s. However, if you feel that you burger is presented completely unsatisfactorily, please speak to the manager on duty. To put a cocktail stick or anything else through the burgers would not be safe for McDonald’s customers, especially the younger ones.
