17. what are the pickels called you use who makes them where could i buy some please helpme
The dill pickles are small cucumbers grown in Turkey. Once they reach about six inches in length, they are harvested and pickled in vinegar and spices before being sliced and supplied to McDonald’s restaurants. Although the McDonald’s pickle slices are not available to buy, you should be able to find similar pickles in your local supermarket.

18. Why don't you specifically ask people if they want gherkins in their burgers.
The gherkins are a very distinctive ingredient in some of McDonald’s best-loved burgers, and while they may not be for everybody, the majority of McDonald’s customers still want them in which is why the burgers are automatically made up with gherkins included. If you don’t want them, tell the staff when ordering and they will you’re your burger without.

19. I've heard that you only put the gherkins in your burgers so there is more mass then weight of fat and then the burgers cannot be classed as cakes. Is this true?
This is another popular myth. The gherkins are there as a signature to McDonald’s burgers. Gherkins have been part of the sandwich for decades and are there for no other reason than taste.
