YYYYES! Finally an Aus version! Please tell me there will be Aus vs UK episodes, because as an Aussie living in the UK this is crucial info for me to show my friends and colleagues.

@LindseyLouWho 3 месяца назад

What is a chain in Australia that is really huge there, that may be considered not-as-good by American standards? Like is Wendy's or Arby's the GOAT there? Dominos? I'd LOVE to see more Aussie eps for sure! Also, do the Hungry Jacks have similar menus to the Burger Kings here? You don't have to answer me, lol, I'm just excited to learn more about what's going on there :) I've ALWAYS wanted to visit! And I'd love to see Aus/UK episodes too, if only to see sweet, sweet Harry

@Bragnezam 3 месяца назад

Well to start we dont have Wendy's or Arby's (at least not that I know of) but we do have two big chains that are basically the same called "Chicken Treat" and "Red Roaster"

@skyemcnamara5761 3 месяца назад

I work at an aussie maccas, some of the things mentioned that werent there like malteezer mcflurry and the pie and mozarella sticks were only available for a certain period (usually 6wks) so milo mcflurry and malteezer werent ever available at the same time at least in vic. We also have crispy chicken snack wraps and the smaller wraps are all 8" wholemeal wraps. We have summer and winter promotions in 2 phases and thats when we have new stuff and sometimes things stay. We also have a mcrispy like the US which replaced the chicken deluxe which also came in both crispy and grilled. We also have chocolate soft serve, not all locations yet again in Victoria at least. Love to have aus here but not fully accurate but that may vary if youre from sydney.

@AutoReport1 3 месяца назад

That's not a current menu in Australia, it looks a few years old. The crispy chicken deluxe is gone it's now the McCrispy like the US. The McFeast has not been on the menu for a while, it comes and goes. The toys switched to cardboard a while ago, (mostly card games like Pokemon or TopTrump) for easier disposal, but you can get a mini brick McDonalds store as an extra. In addition to the regular M&M and Oreo McFlurry, they now do them with chocolate soft serve and had a TimTam McFlurry.

I worked at McDonald's back in 2008 when they introduced the McDouble and raised the prices of the double cheeseburger. The prices swapped out in our POS system right at midnight, fucked me up the next 3 hours until we closed that night because a bunch of other small adjustments went live.

@vincentgrinn2665 3 месяца назад

the beef flavouring in american fries is quite interesting its almost certainly because originally mcdonalds fries were cooked in beef tallow which among other things made them slightly beefy tasting so they probably wanted to keep that flavour, even if they lost all the other benefits of beef tallow

@wotchermuch 3 месяца назад

Pleased to see Australia is being represented now 😊 From that quick look at the deluxe quarter pounder, it looks to have almost the same ingredients as a McFeast, which is just a Quarter pounder with lettuce, mayo and tomato. I think the video was filmed a few months back now too - mccrispy has replaced some of the chicken burgers and the milo McFlurry was limited time only (unfortunately). Most of the time McCafé drinks are also not barista made in other parts of the world. Usually it’s coffee out of a machine in other countries. For those interested, food items are made to order (from some precooked items) in Australia. You won’t find those racks with burgers sitting in them for ages waiting to be picked.

Back in the early 2000’s I used to manage the Maccas in Broome, WA. Which at the time was the most logistically remote McDonald’s in the world, with all our stock coming up from Perth over 2000km’s away. We were closer to Bali. If we ran out of anything we had to transfer it from Port Hedland, the next nearest store, over 600km’s away. Due to Subways success Maccas jumped on the fresh made sandwich trend, with the Deli Choices menu, it was a disaster. We also used to do roast chicken (chook), like Red Rooster when I first started though and it was tasty. What happened to the McOz burger with beetroot?
