Tastiest Things You Didn't Know About McDonalds 

It's sad that we have reached a point where he is simply referred to as "the actor"

Yeah they are all supposedly elected. Safest place when the zombie apocalypse happens. No brains there.

Also the worst part is that the point of the documentary seemed to be "fast food is unhealthy and you shouldn't eat it every day" as if nobody knew beforehand.

If you actually watched the movie, they did blood tests beforehand, there wasn't liver damage before. Maybe actually watch what you are critiquing instead of regurgitating something you read somewhere.

@@iwatchyoutube6539 actually dude, the guy who made the film later admitted that he was addicted to alcohol during filming

​@Iwatchyoutube you would have people believe the known functioning alcoholics' liver was damaged solely by fast food and not his dependence on liquor?

Bullshit! He got tested before and after. Relative to each other, liver damage wouldnt move the needle that much in 30 days. Did you watch the movie???

If you ever see one, you'll go, "Cocaine. Yep..." 😁

I remember those.

Man, those fries fried in beef tallow were the best. Used to swing thru Micky Ds just for fries. BTW, I've used beef tallow in cooking forever. And I've outlived pretty much everyone my own age who went with the "best advice" and ate "healthy." I've never been fat or "unhealthy." Very seldom have I even had the sniffles.

It's not about the health, it's about vegetarians ordering what they think is just potatoes and getting meat.

I think Mc Donalds cut the tallow because of the "saturated fats" and now it is continuosly discovered they are not even "unhealthy"

It didn’t have anything to do with that It was actually because people who were vegetarian or abstained from eating beef for religious reasons were eating them without knowing they were cooked with beef.

The fries used to taste alot better before they stopped putting in the Beef Tallow

If your in Southern CA, drop by "Frank & Sons". They have a booth there that sells old McDonald's toys & collectibles.

My dad wouldn't let us eat McDonald's so I was always jealous of other kids Happy Meals😅

I remember begging my Dad to take me to McDonald’s so I could get a happy meal toy lol😂😂wish life was that simple again

They also switched from Tallow to Trans Fat so the fries were a lot less healthy".

When I worked at McDonald's i'd only fry up the pies when I made em for myself, they're so god damn good fried

The don't have salads on the menu now and I wish they did because they were so good.

I wish they'd bring back the option to Super Size the meals but that Morgan Spurlock ruined everything! 😢

I was literally about to say the same thing

Just another way the media controls the message because that information was never added as a disclaimer to his claims!!

How do you know that? Were you there???

​@@brucewayne1894 No, there was actually retroactive interviews about Spurlock dealing with alcoholism even though the documentary claimed he did not drink.

Your hands just got larger

That's you in your profile picture

The burgers have always come in two sizes, what in the industry are known as 10:1 and 4:1 (for the number of burgers required to weigh a pound. 1.6 ounces and 4 ounces, or 45 g and 112 g respectively.) When it seems like you're getting stiffed on a McBurger, this is because they're smaller than the competition's junior-size burger (they're 8 to the pound at most places, or 2oz/57g) and therefore seem smaller when you get one.

in other words his report was heavilyl skewed and hid some facts, which isn't good if you're making a documentary meant to inform people still the loss of the supersize option was probably a good thing, that's way too much

Not to mention if you want a diet only of fast food, you'd have to eat only a maximum of two burgers a day so you don't go over your caloric necessity... if my guy ate 2 burgers a meal 3 times a day, I can't say I'm surprised he gained all that weight when one Big Tasty is over 800 damn calories. I'm not defending fast food, but you have to understand it's something you eat once or twice a month to scratch an itch, not eat it every day.

They still use the beef. the lawsuit did not change the recipe.

this. she got dragged in the media and in pop culture for suffering /severe/ and painful burns from coffee that was way way way too hot to be served and despite how horrible it must have been, she just wanted to deal with her medical bills and let it go. the counter offer from mc d's was absolutely insulting and yet, very few people talk about it. i feel so bad for her and what she went through.

Her greedy lawyers probably got a huge cut. Rubbing their hands an easy tort suit

McDonald's literally offered her a book of coupons as an apology

I can't believe they didn't mention that!

​@Inasimplerhyme we've reached a point where people no longer recognize him, so he's just "the actor"

All airplanes still have ashtrays in them, at the very least in the bathroom. They have to in case someone decides to light up a cigarette illegally so there is somewhere to extinguish it.

Wish it was still like that, i'd love to be able to experience lighting up a cig in a restaurant right after a big satisfying meal

​@@scarletcrusader5431wtf

Knowing them, people aren't buying enough of those so they stop selling them. I bet they have them elsewhere in the world.

Still available in Australia. Much better than they used to be as it's now topped with real fruit jam, not just fake syrup

I tried to order one last month and the guy acted like i was an idiot

Just because they were designed/created by a gourmet chef, doesn't mean they are gourmet.

@@Caderic sir, I remind you that Technically Correct is the best kind of correct.

@@ridureyu But it's not even technically correct. It's anecdotal at very best, but not even that.

@@Caderic he’s a gourmet French chef, who worked for McDonald’s corporate developing recipes, and created Chicken McNuggets. That’s documented, not “anecdotal at best.” McDonald's first executive chef, René Arend, a native of Luxembourg, created the Chicken McNuggets recipe in 1979. "The McNuggets were so well-received that every franchise wanted them", said Arend in a 2009 interview. "There wasn't a system to supply enough chicken.”

@@ridureyu Cool story. So you are telling me that if a skyscraper engineer designs a 1 story house, the house is by default a skyscraper? Gourmet food is so because of its ingredients and how it is prepared, not because of who prepares it. gourmet: of, relating to, or being high quality, expensive, or specialty food typically requiring elaborate and expert preparation There is no way McNuggets fits that definition. "High Quality" alone disqualifies McNuggets. Naw...You would have been better off by saying "created by a gourmet chef".

Oh my gosh yes!!! I was wondering what this reminded me of hahah

Spurlock is so full of shit I wonder how he manages to walk without stopping to paint the wall brown.

Yup. Straight up lies!

Well, the ice cream can't be that bad...when there isn't any. Because the machines are always broke!!!

@@Caderic Hahaha!

The lady who got burned (also in part due to the cup collapsing which is why they use a sturdier cup now) also only initially asked for her medical bills to be covered but McDs lowballed her multiple times and forced it to go to the jury.

@@josephshrike3972 That is super shady, I did not know that. Thank you for the info.

@@btetschner yeah. She wanted the 20k for medical (she had to have multiple skin grafts) and lost wages (her daughter had to quit her job to take care of her since they couldn't afford a nurse). McDonald's only offered her $800. She also was in the passenger seat of a parked car. Her son was driving. Lots of facts on this one get lost in the immediate reaction to the scenario and the verdict, and people trying to frame it for greed often miss the fact that she never asked for a big payday.

Never played it always threw it away

I've liked most of her recent stuff. They've adjusted their delivery subtly and it's fitting the channel's vibe really well. I do think she should listen to the music arrangement some and work with that lightly gritty sports doc tone that pairs so well with the humor. The other narrator just slightly rolls over the music which is always edited perfectly and I think that docuseries grit and tempo is a large part of the draw.

Well its not like he is going to redit the video or something.

No, it's reflective of a backdoor deal between McDonald's and Taylor - one of their oldest if not oldest partner. Taylor provides soft-serve equipment to ...DQ, Wendy's, BK, CFA, Culver's, and many, many others with no breakdown issues - the broken machine problem is unique to Taylor's equipment at McDonald's. The ice cream machine is not even part of the official store audit. Most franchises businesses get a choice of approved vendors for everything from grills to ice cream - but not McDonald's franchises when it comes to ice cream, Taylor is the exclusive vendor and authorized tech. They get a minimum $400-600 per service call, they make so much that a quarter of Taylor's annual revenue comes almost exclusively from servicing McDonald's machines that inexplicably "fail" their overnight heat/maint cycle. McDonald's corporate is okay with this b/c it's not costing them anything - the money comes out of the franchise owners pocket.

Have a hard time with "R"''s donchaknow. Don't know how pirates talk there...

if you include their international counterparts, then yes. otherwise they're okay.

The greatest food chain to die young of cholesterol.

Yeah their international establishments are better than the domestic ones.

Meh, food is mediocre

You believe everything you see?
