I’ve been so excited to finally try a Big Arch that maybe the anticipation was too much. This one came from a suburb of KC. The presentation was good and I was ok with the pricing at just under $15 for a large meal, but it just didn’t thrill me as much as I had hoped. Everything just seemed to be OK. The sauce was ok. The meat was fresh but I think a double QP tastes fresher. I really don’t understand the crispy onions since they can’t possibly stay crisp amid the sauce and a hot patty so they don’t really add anything. I’ll try it again but overall it just didn’t live up to the . Now I understand why the CEO could just refer to a product. Maybe that’s the problem. It’s a good product, but it’s just a product.

    Top notch review. I don’t eat McDonald’s as I find everything tastes the same but I was interested to find out it it was like the original Le Big Mac

    Bro didn’t you see the CEO? You’re supposed to take the tiniest bite imaginable and save the rest for later

  3. The_deviled_eggs

    I got it the other day and it’s very good. I added bacon and extra onion strings to mine 🔥🔥

    Give me the QP with crispy onions and some spread or bbq sauce please

    Should’ve just brought back the
    McDLT

    Lost me at “just under $15”.

    Not a darn way I would pay that for a McDonald’s meal.

    Not cheeseburger related, but i was so stoked the twister from KFC was brought back. But it is $6-$7 here (in a rural area). I can’t justify that.

    Edit because I mixed up McDonald’s for BK. They’re all doing the rounds.

    Bland. Keep the Fried Onions as an add-on, and 86 this item from the menu.

    The meat is the same as the quarter pounder meat so I don’t understand how the quarter pounder tastes fresher…

  9. ArtInternational8589

    Haha $15 for two gray patties and some orange goop.

    I got a hole in the wall burger place down the street from my house that I can get a bacon jalapeno cheese burger with tots and a sweet tea for $12. $15 for McDonald’s is insane. I don’t get it

  11. I was extremely disappointed in the experience.

    Especially because maybe a year ago, in Canada, we briefly had access to a cheesy jalapeño double quarter pounder, and it was actually amazing. Only had it twice. None of that crispy onion crap.

    I sort of expected it to be as good as that, but not even close

  12. For $15 I can get a gourmet sandwich. Nothing they make is worth it anymore.

    Gross. I don’t want to see the food you’re eating in real life and I don’t want to on the internet.

    I’m glad you took the time to share your opinion so that everyone here can know how sensitive you are about food posts.

    I thought it was fine. Granted, I ate it around 1am when I was pretty tired. It’s a perfectly fine burger with toppings that I like. The sauce is different enough from the Mac sauce to be distinctive.

    Is that with the baby teeth included?

  17. Gob_the_Gilder

    Being ok with a $16 McDonald’s meal is insane

    Do people think this will impress anyone?

    I just had it for the first time yesterday and it was, “Meh”.

    Wasn’t bad, but wasnt really great either.

    Looking at the construction, why not just reintroduce the Grand Mac? The buns and beef are pretty much the same. Replace the tangy sauce with Big Mac sauce and the white cheese with yellow American. The produce used appears to be the same also.

    I miss the annual Big Mac anniversary stuff. Mini macs, grand macs, mac wraps. Man why not Mac Fries?

    What did you expect from a shitty fast food chain?

  21. corpsewindmill

    Are the pickles thicker than the patty like the rest of their “burgers”?

  22. Donnybaseball23

    $11.45 in Astoria Oregon for the meal medium sized.

  23. svennysilver

    Being ok with the pricing is pretty embarrassing

  24. Creative-Area-6385

    This burger, sorry “product”, screams of desperation.

  25. Marlboromatt324

    Someone jizzed in your product homie
