He got Martinez in a headlock and the two careened around the kitchen near a drink machine, until other McDonald's employees intervened. After the attack was thwarted by the coworkers, Cobb still remained in the store and continued his preposterous rant. "Why do you think I'm willing to take two punches in the [expletive] face with some illegal immigrants, while I make an arrest for Immigration and Customs Enforcement," the ICE faker said.
McDonald's locations in the United States tend to be pretty staid and uniform in design, but head abroad and things start to change. While there are a few American McDonald's that don't feature the traditional golden arches aesthetic, in historic international cities, you'll frequently find the burger chain housed in beautiful old stone and masonry buildings - with only a small McDonald's sign offering any hint of what's inside.
The McDouble is closer to a classic cheeseburger, with two beef patties, a slice of cheese, pickles, diced onions, ketchup, and mustard. The Daily Double, on the other hand, swaps out the classic condiments, pickles, and diced onions for slivered onions, shredded lettuce, tomato slices, and mayonnaise on top of the same double patties and cheese foundation. And the end result is a burger that's more about different textures and a fresher bite than the pure cheesy meatiness of the McDouble.
Jose Juan Rangel and his wife, Maria Vargas Luna, pulled up to a McDonald's drive-through nearly two years ago to order some food when they were approached by a person asking for change. What is a common and usually uneventful interaction in Los Angeles turned into a bloody confrontation with tragic results. According to a lawsuit filed by Rangel against McDonald's last week, he and his wife were attacked by the man and McDonald's employees failed to intervene or call for help.
Sure, McDonald's Bacon McMuffin is solid; there's nothing wrong with it. But between a Sausage McMuffin with Egg and a Bacon McMuffin, the sausage clearly comes out on top. When Tasting Table broke down the best McDonald's breakfast items, the Sausage McMuffin was our hands-down winner. As our taste tester says, "The combination of sweet, savory, and subtly smoky flavors makes it undeniably crave-worthy." It just hits all the right notes you want in a breakfast sandwich.
The sauce combines the nation's favorites - Buffalo and ranch - into one allegedly creamy, spicy, and unapologetically dunkable dip for all your chicken needs. On top of the new savory items - which include a Bacon Buffalo Ranch McCrispy (a regular and deluxe version) and a Buffalo Ranch Snack Wrap - Micky D's is also stepping up its sweet game with a collab that's hard to shy away from: a Chips Ahoy!-themed frappé, also available for a limited time.
They wanted to know why he had recently appeared on Russian TV and what, exactly, he intended to do at the government-controlled Area 51. He told them the truth: He and his childhood friend, Eduards Nits, owned the world's oldest McDonald's Quarter Pounder, and they rose to internet fame as a result, explaining their bizarre appearance on a state-run television network that espouses political propaganda to millions of people.
Since the early 90s, McDonald's has teamed up with celebrities to offer special menu items to the masses. The smart marketing strategy has translated into serious dollars for the brand and a few unforgettable recipes for customers visiting the Golden Arches. One of the first collaborations was between the fast-food chain and Michael Jordan. The convergence of forces resulted in the McJordan Special combo, a limited-time order of a McJordan burger, which was made with Jordan's favorite toppings, fries, and a drink.
Today, individually wrapped Happy Meal Teenie Beanie Babies tend to sell on resale sites for between $5-$25, but there's an ongoing auction on Etsy for 12 of the 1998 toys going for over $5,200, which is more valuable due to the original packaging. There's also record on a Beanies Babies Collectors Group website of unopened McDonald's International Bears (one variant of the toy) selling for $2,000 and $5,400.
McDonald's McNuggets debuted nationally on U.S. menus in 1983, while Wendy's introduced its version in 1985. Both menu mainstays have seen some changes over the years, but looking at the most basic, original iterations, Tasting Table has decided that Wendy's offers a superior taste and texture. In addition, while there are roughly 30 ingredients in McDonald's McNuggets, Wendy's chicken nuggets have less than 25.
Burgers at McDonald's are assembled to order - meaning the condiments and extras are added when you place your order - but the patties themselves are kept in what's called a UHC (Universal Holding Cabinet). That's where they stay warm until it's time to build your sandwich. The one exception is Quarter Pounders, which McDonald's policy requires to be cooked fresh every time you order one.
