Sad. I have to admit, I go for a lonnngggg time and then get a hunger for a Big Mac. But before I consume it all, I usually have my fill of Big Mac. And then another lonnngggg stretch before another. Maybe two possibly three a year. Interesting to know who actually invented/designed it though.

I haven't had a Big Mac in many years. For quite awhile I've been going after the grilled chicken wraps. The rare occasion I stop there.....

Haven't had a big mac or any McDonalds since I found Hardy's about 20 years now

Never been a Big Mac Guy. In-N-Out is the best. Put the 5 Guys that was next to the one near me out of business.

We have a place called "Cook Out" that makes a pretty good REAL burger. They actually use real burger and cook it like you would be in your own back yard grill. It is pretty good compared to the others. But nothing beats home made grilled burgers in my opinion. JMHO

ooh in-N-out. Only had them once. I took a trip to San Diego and a friend said I had to try it.

Love the concept and the burger wasn't bad either. I prefer 5 guys burgers over theirs but no comparison when it comes to speed of service. in-n-out all day.

I enjoy a big mac now and again but not very often. I did have one last night. didn't think to take pics of it LOL

musky you got me beat. only a 30 mile trip for me. LOL

I have to say that burgers, in general, from most fast food places just don't taste like they used to when I was in my teen years. And maybe because back then they actually made them from ground beef. Now we get processed pre-made patties, not a real hand made burger anymore. These days if you get a real hand made burger, it cost $10 bucks or more. JMHO
