The Truth About McDonald's Big Mac

Описание: Even if you’re a huge fan of McDonald’s and its classic burgers, there’s a good chance that you don’t know the truth about McDonald’s Big Mac. From the origins of this celebrated burger to how it’s changed the lives of certain individuals, we’re exploring just what makes Mickey D’s famous Big Mac such a juggernaut in the world of burgers. Ever since its creation by McDonald’s franchisee Jim Delligatti in 1967, the Big Mac was fated for burger glory. It was created to take down Burger King’s champ, the Whopper, and helped pave the way for other McDonald’s specialty sandwiches like the Arch Deluxe or the Big N’ Tasty. While many of these unique burgers have faded into the annals of fast food history, the Big Mac has shown its staying power and continues to be one of the most popular fast food items around.

McDonald’s Big Mac also has a long and storied history, so it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone to learn that there’s a museum dedicated to the burger. You might even find an elusive, commemorative MacCoin in the Big Mac Museum. These rare collectible coins can be used anywhere in the world and can be traded in at any participating McDonald’s locations for a tasty Big Mac. Of course, even if you collected a thousand of these coins and turned them in every day, you’d be nowhere near Don Gorske’s record for eating Big Macs. Join us as we serve up our own brand of Big Mac Special Sauce, flavored with the weird and fascinating history of the McDonald’s Big Mac!
