Tried the Grand BM with bacon over the weekend. Pretty decent. Would have it again, would not have it over the big tasty though.

Shouldn’t the veggie already be cheap cos it has no real food in it? (apart from the chicken that apparently loads of them have had in them)

As a heads up from the 25th Feb to the 1st March you'll get a free Cheesy Bacon Flat Bread with any hot drink purchase if using the app...
No thanks, tried one of those once, eating lino floor tiles would be preferable.

They've also ruined their veggie burger like their chicken burgers by putting two veggie strips instead of a patty.

I'm slowly moving towards becoming a vegetarian and recently tried their "old" veggie burger and it was pretty damn good. The new one is just crap. The whole cost-cutting bs they have going on is putting me off going there.

I like it. Surely worth trying for the novelty alone?

I would. The problem with the big tasty is the massive piece of tomato, which is invariably straight out of the fridge, so by the time you sit down to eat it, the whole thing is cold.

One would like to think they actually try this stuff themselves?

Basically it's a Big Mac made with Quarter Pounder paddies and buns.

It’s a lazy boring promo.

A bigger Big Mac with a bit of average bacon. Nothing wrong with it but not worth going out of the way to try.

Wonder what inspiring, novel item will replace it...the ever so interesting big tasty? Sigh. The takeaway eating British public sector of society are so limited in their gastronomic curiosity and suspicion of anything remotely interesting that we will always see the same boring recycled LTOs compared with out overseas cousins.


Re. tomato just ask for it without.

You must surely no that such a request usually is ignored / is too difficult to process. My collegue does his once a week visit to MCDfor breakfast. They mess up his "request" almost everytime.

When you say Max, do you mean the one in Sweden? If so, it's not comparable to Maccy D, the pricing is different. I'd still rather have Maccy D.

That's why self service is so good - I now have a completely 'customised' offering any time I go into maccys, and they've never made it wrong.

Big tasty is the bks - just needs an option for a double tasty. And the ability to buy the sauce separate.

I think it's the "Great Tastes of America" coming next but I'm not great at reading the internal emails.
