I hate pickles and special sauce too.

I can’t find ANYWHERE a mention of them changing the Big Mac. It used to have 2 slices of cheese. Now all of the sudden it only has ONE! Has this been documented?

I noticed the “Double Cheeseburger” still has 2 slices of cheese, however, once it went to the dollar menu (actually a short time after it became the “popular item” of the dollar menu) they reduced it to ONE SLICE OF CHEESE AND CALL the thing a “McDouble”

It’s funny I ran across this today of all days. I was just telling my wife a few hours ago, how I never tried a Big Mac until I was a nearing my mid 20’s. I remember going to McDonald’s for lunch at work one day, and my boss couldn’t understand why I didn’t get the Big Mac deal that was being promoted at the time. I told him that I had heard the sauce was similar to Thousand Island dressing, which is just down right nasty to me. He about lost it, saying not having tried a Big Mac at least once in all my years, is downright unamerican. I always thought the “special sauce” was an integral part of the sandwich, so I never bothered ordering one without it. Opting for quarter pounders and cheeseburgers instead. He went and got me two(buy one get on free) with no sauce, so I could try one out.

I must say, they do, or used to, come with two pieces of cheese. They weren’t all that bad, but in the end I felt the way you did. What’s the big deal? Tasted like a double cheese burger with too much bun. If it’s the “special sauce” that attracts so many to it, they have at it. Thousand Island dressing isn’t touching anything I eat, so unless it’s free and the way I like it, a Big Mac is not in any of my future plans.

Gotta say that the Mac you got wasn’t even an average Mac. I’m not a Mac-head by any stretch, but I don’t mind them. (Being in China, you take burgers wherever you can get them when the craving is on)

There should be cheese on both patties, and I have to say that the one you have pictured doesn’t look like 99% of the Macs I’ve had over the years.

May need to give it one more shake or note the above in your considerations.
