Mckinley-Mac - made with two quarter pound patties. Named after Mt. McKinley in Alaska, and sold only in that state.  Also known as the Bigger Big Mac as an LTO product to celebrate the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
 
In India, where Hindus do not eat beef, the Big Mac was renamed the Maharaja Mac and was originally made with lamb instead of beef; however, along with the company's other items it is now made from chicken.

Son of Mac - Also known as the Mini Mac or Baby Mac, a version with only one patty and no center roll piece. It sold as a Baby Mac in New Zealand, Was sold in Australia, now discontinued. Served by some stores in the United States under the moniker "Mac Jr".

Mickey Dees is possibly the closest one can come to eating from a dumpster without actual climbing in.

I dunno...I've been dragged to a few chinese food joints that I thought were pretty damn close to the dumpster level, maybe even lower.

I thougt the Big Mac was called "Quarter pounder with cheese" ? Or I watched Pulp Fiction too much...
Title: Re: The Big Mac

No, in Pulp Fiction the "Quarter Pounder" was called the "Royale with cheese (avec fromage)".  The Big Mac was still the Big Mac only it was called "Le Big Mac".

Hmm, I'm pretty sure that's no longer true for Ireland anyway. Mind you that's an interesting selection of countries to be lined up with.

I may have to investigate, which could be dangerous as I haven't had breakfast or lunch yet. Wish my luck!

I had some Mac Jr's awhile, those things were just the right size and great!  Was bummed when I found they discontinued them.

Big Mac's are nasty.

small patties, 1 pound of lettuce, a pound of a yellow imitation cheese product, and enough bun to soak up the ocean


I want my whopper  :rock

Sarah and I wanted to have Hungry jacks last night because we got caught out and didn't get a chance to cook. They were shut so we had to settle for Maccas.
TBH we felt like someone had taken a crap on a bun and asked us to eat it.

Hungrys is definitely better but I love a good Big Mac. My local makes pretty good Big Macs... Plenty of the Big Mac sauce (I don't care what it is, it tastes so good).

Mmmm.... You bastages made me hungry.

One of my kids had these for a birthday party cake (instead of the traditional cake). Each of the kids made their own burger cake (familyfun magazine recipe).  They ate their own cake after dinner, then for breakfast.  I'm sure their parents were just thrilled that I sent them home full of sugar.  At any rate, the kids had a super time making these cakes that look just like burgers. :)

Indeed they are. The secret is in the sauces they're very saucy compared to the dry mcdonalds burgers. Downside being you make a huge mess of yourself while eating them but it's good..
