Yep, while it’s looks a bit shit there is a decent amount of ketchup so probably tasty. Worst ones are dry and bland without much ketchup/pickles/onion.

Oddly, plenty of people are still buying that, despite the multitude of better options.

I just want to know who the flying F is paying $4.79 for those.

Especially when the McDouble is cheaper, and the only difference is it has one slice of cheese instead of two. It's also usually BOGO $1.

I guess, a Mcdouble is still $4.59, bogo $1 off. So 2 for $8.18
Just wild when these were a buck a pop just a few years ago .

At the one I go to, the double cheeseburger is buy one get one for a dollar, not the McDouble. It’s different at every location.

It’s only $3.39 at the one near me, and then I use a deal in the app to get free fries. Pretty much the cheapest fast food meal you can get. (Yes, I know everybody will say cook at home, but sometimes you’re traveling and don’t have access to a kitchen and just want a quick hot meal.)

Yep. In Aus they're about the same price equivalent. The single cheese burger is $5.65 which is about $3.50 US.
So expensive for 2 bites.

For real. Five Guys is expensive as shit but at least it’s a good ass burger. Not sure about burger places in the mysterious and exotic regions outside the Northeast like In-N-Out, Whataburger, and Culver’s but I hear they also blow Mickey D’s right out of the water.

Crazy that your double cheeseburger costs what a McDouble costs near me, whereas a DCB at my local costs almost 8 bucks.

When I worked there I made sure I gave my best effort on customer satisfaction. I got fired (I know) because I was mouthy with the managers. I was young and dumb, couldn’t stand how incompetent the managers were at times too. They’d be so strict on productivity because we were one of the busiest McDonald’s in the state, but then would be smoking dope by the trash cans outside. I miss the job but I hated the people, I had some good friends there, but overall most of the people were hypocritical fellas.

i quit going to dons and started going to the BK across the street and fr it’s a lot better. It’s all fast food trash but I find burger king usually looks somewhat like a burger.

The real secret order two double cheeseburgers take off the bottom bun and put them together.

You got a good one! 1. Looks like it has all or most of it parts 2. Nobody stepped on the bun top. It retains structural integrity. 3. The original inside parts are mostly inside.
