Oreo McFlurry

Since the previous product was a breakfast item, I figured to do an item on the dessert menu.

This article will be about the McFlurry. The Oreo flavored McFlurry. This has always been my favorite dessert from McDonald’s for as long as I could remember. This is because it combined three of my favorite things, Oreos, ice cream, and McDonald’s. Regardless of my bias towards this product, the dessert is actually pretty good. You would expect it to taste like your average Cookies n Cream ice cream but it does not, it brings a whole sweeter level. It leaves a taste that is hard to get sick of, unlike how you could eat a bowl of ice cream and not want anymore.

For its price, the product is very satisfactory. However we do need to be careful with it. Too much eating of this equals too much sugar and too much sugar equals bad health. I don’t recommend getting this every time you order from McDonald’s because of the fact that one could easily become diabetic especially if diabetes is a hereditary disease that runs in the family. So lastly, just be careful when eating this product, although it is one of the best tastes in the world, this can lead to some major regrets in the future.

Sausage McMuffin w Egg

This next product is by far the best McDonald’s item on the menu for breakfast.

The Sausage McMuffin with Egg is not just your ordinary sandwich. It combines flavors that you never thought could be combined. It’s cooked the way a sausage is cooked but when paired with bread and egg, this becomes a truly majestic product.

The product is best when taken in drive-thru. When I was younger, I’d use to go to the province with my dad all the time. We would always leave the house at early morning, which gave way to one of my favorite moments about the car ride going there, the breakfast at McDo. We would always drive thru for breakfast, and we would always get the Sausage McMuffin with Egg and after all those times, the Sausage McMuffin with Egg never displeased us. This is because this is always made fresh. Since it is breakfast time, this product never sits down for more than an hour, when you receive it it is always still warm and still tasty.

Lastly this product goes best with a hash brown or two, these two compliment each other to make a taste that we always crave for more.

Chicken McDo

Mcdonald’s is not all about the burgers. Sure their main product that their reputation has been built around are burgers, but this fast food restaurant has some pretty good non-burger items on it’s menu.

From these items, we will talk about one particular one. The Chicken McDo. The Chicken McDo is McDonald’s version of a chicken and rice meal. People say that this meal isn’t close to Jolibee and KFC’s chicken, but I think that this is far better than KFC’s chicken and almost on par with Jolibee’s chicken.

The Chicken McDo is not like your average regular chicken meals that for some reason all chicken places have. The taste of the Chicken McDo is quite peculiar. Since it does not taste like most other chickens, it always leaves you craving for more to find out what about it makes it stand out. Even if the Chicken McDo is not spicy it always tastes like there is a little bit of spice. Its not like other chicken places because its not all about the salt (KFC’s chicken is very very salty). This product’s taste also paves way for it to be experimented on even further.

One last tip when eating this is to try it with a bit of pancake syrup from McDonald’s, it leaves such a whole new world of tastiness in your taste buds.

Fries

McDonald’s has been known throughout the worlds for being the most successful fast food burger chain but it also has some of the best French Fries in the world.

McDonald’s has world famous fries. I’d pick these fries over any other fries in the world. this is because when its fresh these fries’ crispiness and saltiness coincide to become the best fries in the world. These fries truly compliment with the burger that it sides with. Sometimes they even carry the satisfaction of the whole meal on their own. When fresh these fries are crispy and juicy at the same time and it leaves a whole new level of satisfaction on your taste buds.

However, just like the Quarter Pounder if you order this at the wrong time, you will be very displeased with your order. It becomes absolutely disgusting when these fries have been cooked for two hours or more and have just been sitting there waiting for someone to receive them.

Regardless, I would pick these fries over any other fries in the world and take them to my grave. That is because these crispy juicy salty little golden brown strips of potato are legendary.

Crispy Chicken Sandwich

This is another beaut on the McDonald’s menu here in the Philippines.

It is a relatively cheap sandwich compared to all the other sandwiches and burgers on the menu. For its price, one could buy two filling orders of it and have around 150 pesos extra as to how much he would spend on a Quarter Pounder, given of course that he buys these sandwiches ala carte.

Personally I buy these sandwiches to help fill up my stomach when I’m too broke to buy two Quarter Pounders, in order to compliment with the first. The product never ceases to satisfy my taste buds.

Another main reason on why I love this product so much is that because of its price, I am able to come home with extra food after I go to McDonald’s, it in turn takes off some stress from the yayas(yaya is a Filipino term for maid) that work here because it allows them to rest and not cook another meal.

This product is truly one of many that McDonald’s provides. It never is unsatisfactory due to us believing that the taste of the sandwich always overcomes the price it is sold at.

Quarter Pounder

The Quarter Pounder is a hamburger sold by international fast food chain McDonald’s, so named for containing a patty with a precooked weight of a quarter of a pound (113.4 g). It was first introduced in 1971. In 2013, the Quarter Pounder was expanded to represent a whole line of hamburgers that replaced the company’s discontinued Angus hamburger. In 2015, McDonald’s increased the precooked weight to 4.25 oz (120.5 g). (Got from Wikipedia)

The Quarter Pounder is probably my favorite item on the McDonald’s menu. It is probably the best burger for me. But, it does have some conditions for you to be truly satisfied with its taste.

For me, I am truly satisfied when I eat the product when my stomach is empty and when it is fresh. Therefore I encourage you to buy this product at around 2 in the morning, because this is the time when the product is most fresh. When it has been newly cooked, the quarter pounder is the best burger to get at a late time when all the other restaurants are closed. The juice gets trapped inside the beef keeping all the flavour inside and tenderising the patty. This makes the burger easy to eat and leaves a whole lot of tastes that satisfies our tastebuds.

On the secret menu here in the Philippines, there is an “upgraded” version of the quarter pounder called the double quarter pounder. This makes a 2 patty in one set of buns burger. In the double quarter pounder all the qualities of a regular quarter pounder are present, but it enriches all those tastes and charectistics of a regular one. On top of that, I speculate that the double quarter pounder is cooked at a more recent time than the regular quarter pounder. This in turn makes the burger fresher and juicer, which means that it is basically available at almost any time of the time. In my experience I have only had around two cases of the double quarter pounder not being fresh.

To conclude I’d like to say that the quarter pounder is worth it because of it’s taste, however it is quite pricey.
