McDonalds is bringing back a familiar icon from their franchise! The Hamburgler is coming back! But they’re not just bringing him back! They’re improving the taste and look of their burgers!
The company has said their going to improve their hamburgers, cheeseburgers, Big Mac’s, and more! So how will McDonalds improve them? The buns will be softer, which is something they’ve needed to do for a while! No more stale or hard buns! They’re also going to toast the buns now! And the cheese, it will be “perfectly melted cheese” and they’re planning to grill onions with the burger patty’s to make them “juicier” and have that caramelized flavor.
They’ve already rolled out this new burger initiative at some West Coast cities, including right here in Las Vegas! You’re also going to see the Hamburgler in commercials and promotions, to help promote the better burgers!
Australia, Canada, and Belgium have been this for a while. McDonalds plans to have all locations serving the improved burgers by 2024!

The discussion has always been what fast food places offer up the BEST French Fries and that debate can go on forever. But what are you willing to put on your fries to make them even that much better. Well, it’s a good question, but then to find out what some people will NOT put on their French fries is a totally different conversation.
Now keep in mind all the types of fries there are to dive into! Curly, Waffle, Crinkle Cut, Cottage fries and much more!
However, according to a poll on Reddit, they wanted to know how people ate their French fries from…especially when the fries came from McDonalds. A lot of people will agree that when it comes to fries, the Golden Arches score very high. But it was pretty amazing at how some fans are very specific about what they are will to add to the fried potatoes to make them that much better.
A little over 6% said they had to dip them in a sweet and sour sauce. Most kids would tell you that dipping them in a chocolate shake isn’t bad either. But what is the one thing that some said they would NEVER add to their French fries to add to the taste? While some fans were a little shocked by this, it might have something to do with their health!
2% of those that added to the poll said that they prefer their fries WITHOUT SALT! It’s like WHAT? But we get it…some people just don’t like salt on anything. Now keep in mind you can always ask for French fries without salt at any place.
So what are the Top 3 condiments that people like to eat their French fries with? Hmmmm…scroll down a little further to find out. By the way, mark July 13th on your calendar…National French Fry Day!
It might be only 7% right now, but that’s how many people love to have a side of BBQ Sauce with their pile of fries no matter where they are from! So it might be only a small group, but it come in at #3 on the list!
