The Big Arch debuted in Canada in late August, 2024. At the time, they didn't say it was a limited time offer. It disappeared after about a year. If I had known it wasn't going to be a permanent item, I would have ordered it more often because it was really good. I think I only got it 3 times. I wish they would bring it back. When it debuted, it cost $10 and it had gone up to $11 (Canadian dollars, of course) before it disappeared.
For that price I think I would rather go to the Ankeny Diner for their burger and fries. Always delicious.
Nothing cheap at Micky D's John. I like to get their sausage egg mcmuffins. Still not too crazy in price. Sometimes tou can get a 2 for 1 deal!😊
Did you hear they are changing the Whopper?
Thanks John. It looks good. I'd try one without lettuce and pickles. But the price is too much - more than the price of a pepperoni Little Caesars pizza.
I had one today and wasnt impressed. Tasted like McDonald's. Of course they gave me the wrong order at the drive-thru. Some things never change.
2:10 "Gettin crazy with the cheese wiz"
The double cheeseburger with 4 piece McNuggets, fries and drink for $6 is the real deal.
Go clones!
What does the poppy seeds taste like... Just curious... 🤔
was not impressed with the bun it was dry and hard the taste is to much like a big mac not alot of thought went into this sandwich.
Just fun to see the burger wars heat up. Haven't had fast food in over 20 years and McD in over 30 years. This won't change that. The nearly 1800 grams of sodium will be enough to warrant an increase in your blood pressure medication and put you in renal failure. Might need to go to the Heart Attack Shack instead and bring your favorite nurse and ambulance driver. ;-) Glad you enjoyed it.
Bring back the MC DLT
Go Iowa State!! Alumni here.
Tried it yesterday, didn't care for it,rather have double quarter pound with Mac sauce .
Looks/ sounds like the "grand mac"
I get two McChicken sandwiches for $3.
I tried one yesterday. First of all it was a grease bomb. When I took it out of the box I noticed grease all over the box itself, grease on the top of the bun, and grease on my hands. yuck! The other weird thing is despite 3 pieces of cheese I couldnt tast the cheese. Cmon McDonalds how do you screw up the cheese? Should have stuck with yellow american cheese. Sauce not much different than big mac sauce. I will stick with the Big Mac and save money.
Is that healthy?
Not going to waste my money and FYI I do go to Mcdonalds I laugh people bad mouth Mcdonald's all the time but when you go pass one the drive-ups are always backed up.
