im eating my secd 1/3 pound sirloin burger right now and it's amazeballz, I'll tell ya...one thing they could do is put some real fucking cheddar on them, I cooked mine on a traeger and did mostly standard toppings, fuck red onions though...needs to be white, then lettuce, tomato, mayo and stone ground mustard, of course ketchup and then some A-1 and horseradish. Last but not least some 5 year old chedder, this one was Australian and my god it had just the right kick to it, you know...like real Cheddar does.

Wow, those look pretty small for 1/3rd pound patties. Maybe they're thinner and wider than I make mine.
The better to overcook them, I suppose.

Still doesn't beat the ghost jalepeneo chicken sandwich I had today. I even took a photo of it before I ate it. Looks as good as it tastes:
omg, please tell me this is in the states!

"We took the Angus burgers, and replaced them with a different kind of meat. Also the Angus-*coughcough* I mean Sirloin Deluxe will use Swiss/White Cheddar (I can't tell the difference based on the pic) instead of American. BRILLIANT!"

It's tasty, though goes better with the ghost pepper fries.Still doesn't beat the ghost jalepeneo chicken sandwich I had today. I even took a photo of it before I ate it. Looks as good as it tastes:

The comments about mushrooms on burgers, really?
Mushroom swiss burger is a pretty common item.
I thought they were like $4.50?

Just you you know jr., we like to include receipts in "pick-up" posts to verify it's not a stock picture. Not a big deal but just for future knowledge.

How can we tell someone really bought something or is just shilling a company's product here or worse, pirated the product?

I am not sure I understand or know about this being a serious thing or not either. Do people really go that far?

I mean, I understand but...if it's a stock photo, couldn't someone easily be called out on it? Sometimes when I go through drive-thrus I don't even keep the receipts. I do understand what you're saying though.

I was banned after being accused of using another persons picture of MGS HD Collection. I didn't photo the receipt so my protests were useless.

I just can't shake the feeling that spending more at McDonald's is a good thing when they make cheap food. It's this weird line of feeling like you are paying for quality at a higher price from the 99 cents store.
It just doesn't feel right. Like everybody else, most would probably spend their money somewhere with a better reputation for the money if the burger cost that much but what if it's actually good?
Weird tbh

Hey now, that's no way to talk about Orlando.
Haven't been to McDonalds in years for anything other than a McFlurry, apple pie or Peppermint Hot Chocolate, all of which they do well. I felt like eating shitty, was inspired by the thread and went to get a burger and fries. (To be fair - even when I was overweight I found their food too greasy compared to other fast food places.)
Possibly the worst cost to taste ratio in the world. Large fries and the Steakhouse cost roughly $10 and the burger tasted like eating rubber. In addition to the meat having no flavor, I had to keep chewing for it break down more than I've possibly ever chewed in my life. The mushrooms were the only good part.
If you're spending that much for a burger and fries, you're better off going to Shake Shack, Five Guys or In-N-Out. I couldn't imagine that the cheap fast food joint would release a "premium" burger that tasted worse than their 99 cent option. I went in with low expectations and got something even lower.

We already have similar burgers in Spain, they are called "McExtreme" and they supposedly have meat that comes from Extremadura. I think it tastes like the rest of the classic burgers they have always offered... Just a different kind of lettuce and onions, but the meat, even if it is a little bigger piece, it's just the same as the rest of Mcdonalds meat. Not premium at all. They are even offering now a new one that they call "BIBO" and is designed by a Spanish chef with two Michelin stars (Dani Garcia). Again, the same, but with a different hamburger bread, a new sauce and another type of lettuce.

I went to Japan a few months ago and tried the Prosperity Burger. It was pretty terrible...I think it was chicken. It was smothered in some sickeningly sweet sauce.

I want them all.
In the UK the 'special' burgers suck apart from the BCO.

Any worthwhile local joint isn't charging you $5 for a burger. Most places range into the 7-12 range for burgers now. Any good places, anyways.

Man how about some chicken?
I'm actually loving this one from Burger King. The ciabatta-chicken tendercrisp. They are £4.99 but really worth it.

Much better then the McDonalds chicken burgers IMHO.

i think prosperity burger is a malaysia/maybe china thing. maybe you had the teritama, which comes around every spring? it's a teriyaki chicken burger with egg. not my favourite.
Go home IdreamofHIME, mushrooms on a burger is god's own work. I still remember that horrible day when Burger King in the UK stopped selling the Mushroom Double Swiss. Soo good.
