So how is the Grand Mac?

[SaltyNuts]

Is it just a bigger version of a Big Mac, or does it actually taste a little different (better)?

Thanks

It's very messy. With all of that shredded lettuce and sauce on there, the damn thing starts sliding apart when you eat it.

It's not bad, though. It's basically just a double sized Big Mac. Same taste, just more expensive and harder to eat. If I got one again, I'd ask for less sauce.

That ultimatebob. Well, hell, I wished they had changed something up a bit, so I would have an excuse to try one to check out a new taste. I always get mine plane anyways, so more/less sauce doesn't matter to me. Thanks!

Changed things up... like a 1/4lb patty and a McChicken?

 

[brianmanahan]

not as good as wendy's

I still haven't tried one yet, we had a couple 2-1 coupons the other day that were going to expire and bought a couple regular Big Macs and Royale with Cheese and ate em over the weekend.

We try not to hit McD's on a regular basis, is just a now and then thing.

Who cares, Shamrock shakes are back, haven't had one in many, many, many years.

Maybe they could get really funky and put some bacon strips and a McRib in there as well!

Don't they now just hand blend in some shamrock flavor into something that resembles an actual milk shake ...

Vs a bag of shamrock liquid getting pumped out of a machine, the way god intended shamrock shakes to be made?

At first glance I thought you were responding to Watagump and wanting them to put that in their shamrock shake

 

[MrSquished]

As said before, it's messy. It starts sliding apart almost instantly after a bite or two. Tastes good but nothing amazing. I'd rather order from the 2 for $5 menu for now.

Might as well add a filet of fish too

I have no clue how they make them, end result is all that matters to me.

I never liked McRibs myself, but the wife loves Shamrocks Shakes I guess.

Now that's what I call a McPickTwo. Pick any two meat patties to go in a Big Mac. I doubt they'll do it though, in part because it's probably not very good in most cases.

No idea why the OP thought they did something to change the flavor.

Yeah the shredded lettuce in particular is a pain (although I prefer the shredded lettuce to the horrible big leafy type that some places use).

It's fine, if you like Big Macs you'll like them. I don't like McDonald's burgers in general, the flavor of them just is kinda off to me compared to even other fast food places. In N Out tastes kinda similar to me which is why I'm baffled at people saying they have amazing hamburgers (good value definitely, but far from the amazing burger some people claim they offer).

I thought all the big mac was was more carbs + thousand island dressing. Grand mac is that but like 15% bigger.

 

[AgentUnknown]

I instantly regretted it after eating Mcdonalds. McD tastes great late night though.

 

[Billb2]

The Mac Jr is better than that messy grand thingey.

Only 15%? It seemed much bigger than that to me, to the point where I felt over-full finishing one.

It's basically a huge Big Mac, nothing more.

Meh, I'll stick with Windows and Linux.

I was pretty full eating a Grand Mac combo meal. But it cost like $10. Not worth the price to performance ratio IMO

Yeah, it's like a double quarter pounder with all of the Big Mac fixings added to it. I'd say that it's a good 50% bigger myself.

An article on the Big Mac. Fun fact, it wasn't invented by McDonad's corporate, it was invented by a franchisee who wanted to spice up his menu options:
