Big & Tasty has been mentioned as a favorite by many on GAF, though this news may just upset them further since the burger has not been available in the US for a while.

McDonald's Gives the Big & Tasty the Big Mac Treatment in Brazil:

Fans of the discontinued Big 'N Tasty might want to plan a trip to Brazil, where McDonald's is currently offering a limited-time Big Tasty menu that includes a Big Mac-style Big Tasty called the "Grand Big Tasty."

The fast food chain is also offering Tasty McFritas and the Big Tasty Bacon. The Big Tasty is a variant of the Big 'N Tasty that McDonald's offers in a number of countries around the world. The main difference is rather than ketchup and mayo, the Big Tasty has Tasty Sauce instead. Also, the Big Tasty does not include pickles.

The Grand Big Tasty is an even bigger burger than the Grand Mac that McDonald's is currently serving here in the US. It features two one-third-pound beef patties (i.e. twice the meat of the Grand Mac), three slices of Swiss cheese, onions, lettuce, tomato, and cheese on a three-part Big Mac-style sesame seed bun.

The Big Tasty Bacon takes the regular Big Tasty and replaces the bun with a square one that baked with bits of bacon on top. The burger also includes three strips of bacon for good measure.

Finally, Tasty McFritas features French fries topped with Tasty sauce and pieces of bacon.

JESUS FUCK

 

[The Technomancer]

no here

offer it here you motherfuckers

 

[SpecX]

What the hell? They literally took the top bun off one burger and put it underneath another. Looks huge, but knowing McD it won't be that big.

 

[NealMcCauley]

I'm much more fascinated by the square bun than I should be.

 

[Rhaknar]

Big Tasty Bacon? yes pls

 

[Chris R]

The Big Mac version should have the bacon bun, comeon mcd, you slackin

 

[Tunin]

Gotta get those lost $$ back.

Sadly, it won't be enough to regain market share here in Brazil.

 

[SuperSah]

They removed the top of one and slapped on top another.

bring to the uk

pls

 

[Skyzard]

That grand big tasty looks ridiculous. Instant heart-attack.

 

[Platy]

Also, it is weird that Brazil has one of the biggest Big Mac Index in the world, which means that here, McDonalds is considered fancy food since it is not cheap.

 

[jts]

Seems like it was already available last year by this time.

Couldn’t find proper real photos off Google, but in this video a dude eats one.

OMG SALAD

 

[Fuster Cluck]

I had a Big Tasty today (UK) and was wondering if they'd ever do a Big Mac style version... I'd never be able to finish it! They'd never bring it here though.

 

[Plum]

The Big & Tasty is the best thing McDonalds does. If it weren't for that and the £4 for 20 McNuggets box I'd never go to the place...

...so please bring over to UK soon.

 

[Abilidebob]

Neat, I think I'll try it tomorrow. I'll excruciatingly describe it to you guys.

 

[John Kowalski]

It tastes ok i guess but it's just too big for me.

There's no & in Big Tasty, only the Americans have that for some odd reason

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

I pretty much stopped going to McDonald's after the Big N' Tasty was discontinued, not that I went there frequently to begin with. Now I only consider going to McDonald's in March for Shamrock Shakes.

 

[Plum]

Mate I haven't been there in a while, I can't remember whether it's & or N'...

Just checked though and it is back. Fuck yes. It was gone when I went there just before going home for Christmas and I had to get the godawful Christmas burger instead.

 

[Stereogatari]

Big Tasty is my go to order at McDonalds. Fucking hate it when they have seasonal nonsense take it off the menu.

This double Big Tasty though. UK when?

 

[frankie_baby]

There's one thing seriously wrong with it though, why only the same amount of cheese as the regular big tasty?

 

[sqwarlock]

I miss the Big & Tasty. Was my favorite burger from McD's, and I'd definitely try that double-stacked one.

 

[Takuan]

Was this the Big Xtra in Canada?

 

[Brazil]

Oh God Fast FoodGAF is the last thing we need in our lands


Time to build a wall

 

[CoolOff]

Square?!

Huh, I didn't realize this was a returning item. Maybe it will be a regular seasonal thing going forward?

 

[Jeffolation]

Was this the Big Xtra in Canada?

A local Walmart served them for years. I need to go back and see if it's still the case. This was in eastern Canada.

 

[OG Shaka Zulu]

Fuck, this just made me hungry as hell at 2a.m.

I hate how U.S. McDonald's pretty much gave up on innovation. Bring back the Arch Deluxe.

And the Chicken Fajitas for Christ's sake!

 

[Tizoc]

The Big Tasty ain't that tasty IMO.
Also McDonald's Middle East are selling these Signature sandwiches

http://www.mcdonaldsarabia.com/uae/en/our_food/Menu/signature.html

I take it they were already sold in other regions?

Oh God LOL I'm about to raid the fridge. I loved those fajitas, they were tasty as hell.

Yes, they are sold here too.

Plus, the Big Mc Tasty is being sold for more than a month, and it is not the first time they introduce it.

No we have it in France too

 

[Fat4all]

hot damn

 

[Marky Mark]

Lil' Yum Yum.

 

[Charcoal]

Oh how I wish they would have brought back the Big & Tasty instead of this Jr Mac bullshit.

 

[jacob armitage]

OMG i'm so hungry, why am i reading this thread lol.

 

[acheron_xl]

Oh how I wish they would have brought back the Big & Tasty instead of this Jr Mac bullshit.

A Big & Tasty was just a QPC with more-or-less Whopper toppings.

And the Mac Jr is probably the best thing currently on their menu.

 

[Kid Ying]

It's not that good. The grand tasty got a different kind of hamburguer that, although it's good, feels weird to me.

From those special sandwiches of McDonald's, my favorite is still the Shrek one with cheddar and pepperoni.

I've never seen an opinion that could be more wrong.

 

[Seldomly Jambon]

I just want a big Mac that size in London. Huge Mac. Cheers ta.

 

[sems4arsenal]

Bacon aside, I assume this is the same Big Tasty we have here in Egypt, there is a double Big Tasty option as well.

 

[ColdPizza]

So a Big and Tasty with bacon and mac sauce? Why can't I have this?

 

[ColdPizza]

Yes, they are sold here too.

Plus, the Big Mc Tasty is being sold for more than a month, and it is not the first time they introduce it.

Where is here? I've seen these same burgers in McDonald's Uruguay

 

[Falchion]

Seriously.

 

[frankie_baby]

No we have it in France too

No i meant it was just called big tasty

 

[daviyoung]

fast food bullshot thread?

 

[Pennywise]

This double Big Tasty though. UK when?

It's part of the regular menu in Germany now.
I would love to try that double though, why can't we have nice things like that and are punished with stuff like Big Rösti.
