[edit] About McDonald's menu

[edit] Burgers

All beef patties are grilled, with seasonings, consisting primarily of salt and black pepper.

Big Mac: Along with the Quarter Pounder with cheese, this is one of the two McDonald's signature menu items. Introduced in 1968 as a response to the flagship burger at Big Boy restaurants. Two 1.6-ounce (45 g) (approx. uncooked weight) ground beef patties, special Big Mac sauce (similar to Thousand Island dressing), re-hydrated onions, two pickle slices, shredded iceburg lettuce, and cheese, on a toasted bun, with an additional middle bun (called a "club layer") separating both beef patties.
Quarter Pounder: Along with the Big Mac, this is one of the two McDonald's signature menu items. 4-ounce (113 g) (approx. uncooked weight) ground beef patty with ketchup, mustard, slivered onions, two pickle slices (many countries don't include pickles), and two slices of cheese. The Quarter Pounder was invented by Al Bernardin, a franchise owner and former McDonald's Vice President of product development, at his McDonald's in Fremont, California, in 1971.[1] In some markets unfamiliar with Imperial measurements (such as France), it is known as a Royal Cheese, or variants thereof, such as McRoyale [2]. Also available as the Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese, which includes another patty of the same proportions and a slice of cheese, or as a quad sandwich in parts of Australia.
Hamburger and cheeseburger: a 1.6-ounce (45 g) ground beef patty, with 0.125 ounces (3.5 g) ketchup, mustard, a single dill pickle, re-hydrated onions, on a toasted bun. At one time early in McDonald’s history, the pickle was removed from the sandwich [3]. Also sold as a double or triple, adding an extra pickle slice for each beef patty added. The double cheeseburger was originally offered as a promotional item in the 1950s, and was added to the regular menu in 1965. A triple burger and a bacon double cheeseburger are optional items and are not always available in all restaurants or markets. A green chile double cheeseburger with chile peppers is offered in New Mexico.
Double Cheeseburger has two 1.6-ounce (45 g) ground beef patties, with 0.125 ounces (3.5 g) ketchup, mustard, two slices of dill pickle, re-hydrated onions, and two pieces of cheese on a toasted bun.
McDouble, made its debut in 2009, similar to a Double Cheeseburger, but with just one slice of cheese.
The Big N' Tasty is a 4-ounce (113 g) beef patty with ketchup, mayonnaise with a grill flavoring, diced onions, two pickles, leaf lettuce, and a tomato slice, on a toasted bun. It was devised to resemble Burger King's Whopper sandwich.[4] It is also known as the Big Xtra in most of Canada; the McXtra in Québec, Canada; the McFeast Deluxe in Australia; the Big Tasty (without the 'N') in Brazil, Bulgaria, France, Germany (without ketchup), The Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, the United Kingdom; the Quarter Pounder Deluxe in South Africa; and the McNifica (a play on Spanish magnifica, 'wonderful') in Mexico and Latin America. However in many Latin American countries the McNifica and Big n Tasty are two different burgers where the McNifica does not have the special grill mayonnaise.
Angus Third Pounders - There are three sandwiches: the Angus Deluxe (American cheese, sliced red onions and sliced red tomatoes, iceberg lettuce, pickles, mustard, and mayonnaise); Angus Mushroom and Swiss (sautéed mushrooms, Swiss cheese and mayonnaise); and Angus Bacon and Cheese (bacon, American cheese, sliced red onions, mustard, ketchup and pickles). An Angus Chipotle BBQ Bacon sandwich was later added to the lineup. In Ontario it is the called the Angus Deluxe, with or without bacon, cheese, or both. Cheddar cheese is used on the Angus Deluxe in Canada instead of American cheese. In Australia and New Zealand, only two Angus burgers are sold; The Grand Angus (which is a clone of the Angus Deluxe) and the Mighty Angus (which resembles the Angus Cheese and Bacon, but with no pickles and mayonnaise and onion relish replacing the ketchup and mustard). Both sandwiches are on toasted sourdough buns.

In most European markets, a wrap called The Greek Mac was sold. It consists of two burger patties wrapped in a pita with yogurt sauce, tomato slices, iceberg lettuce and onions. The sandwich is offered in Belgium, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Cyprus, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Serbia (seasonal), Spain, and selected outlets in the United Kingdom.
In Australia and New Zealand, part of the Value Picks menu, are the Bacon Cheeseburger with BBQ sauce which is a burger with 10mL BBQ Sauce, A 10:1 beef patty, one slice of cheese and a rasher of bacon, also the BLT which is 15mL McChicken sauce, shredded lettuce, tomato and a rasher of bacon.

[edit] Chicken, fish and pork

McChicken - A mildly spicy chicken sandwich. Made from 100% white meat chicken. mayonnaise, and shredded lettuce, on a toasted bun. It was introduced in 1980, then later removed, but then later reintroduced in 1988. In some markets it is not spicy, and in others a cajun spiced version is also offered. It still remains one of the biggest sellers, just behind the Big Mac.
Premium chicken sandwiches - The Classic is a rebranding of the Crispy Chicken and Chicken McGrill sandwiches, with mayonnaise, leaf lettuce, and a tomato slice. The Ranch BLT contains ranch sauce instead of mayonnaise and includes bacon. The Club is similar to the Classic with added bacon and a piece of Swiss cheese. In Latin America, there are the Classic, the Club, but instead of the BLT, a Honey-mustard chicken sandwich. All are served on a honey-wheat roll, with either a grilled or crispy chicken breast.
Southern Style Chicken Sandwich - A southern style chicken breast, on a steamed bun, dressed with butter and two pickles. Nearly identical to a Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich.
Snack Wrap - McDonald's version of a wrap made with white meat chicken breast (crispy or grilled), lettuce, shredded Cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese, and a sauce (Spicy Buffalo, Ranch, Honey Mustard, Chipotle barbecue, or Salsa Roja, the breakfast sauce on the McSkillet), wrapped in a soft flour tortilla. Officially launched on July 1, 2006. Chipotle BBQ is the most recent flavor. Available in the United States, The Netherlands, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and Brazil.[5][6][7] There is also a Mac Snack Wrap which features the fixings of the Big Mac, but without the bun and wrapped in a tortilla shell, and uses a half of a piece of quarter meat.[8]

Available in Australia under the name Chicken McDippers.[10]

Filet-O-Fish - A whitefish fillet with tartar sauce and a half slice of cheese, on a steamed bun. It was introduced in Cincinnati in 1963 when it was discovered that many Roman Catholics chose to eat at Frisch's Big Boy on Fridays and during Lent, as it offered a fish sandwich so they could go without meat.[11] They were replaced with the Fish Filet Deluxe in 1996 and brought back in 1998 abiet a larger fish patty.

The McRib

McRib - A sandwich featuring boneless pork smothered in barbecue sauce, diced onions, and pickles. First seen in test-market stores near interstate highways around Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin, in the late 1970s (along with early tests of personal-sized pizza) the McRib was more widely released in 1981, but later pulled from menu. Now released annually in the US as a limited time promotion. Since 2005, the McRib has reappeared in late October and stays on the menu for one month. This limited time marketing stategy was parodied on The Simpsons, with the "Krusty Burger Ribwich". The McRib was recently released in Canada as a promotional sandwich from March 18 through April 8, 2008. The McRib is presently on some European menus, e.g. Germany.[12]

[edit] Other products

McDonald's first introduced salads to its menu in 1985. Since that time, they have restructured their salad lines several times. In the U.S., the newest salad offerings are part of the McDonald's Premium line. First introduced in 2003, the Premium Salads all are a mixture of iceberg lettuce and a special lettuce assortment (romaine, etc.), with cherry tomatoes and different toppings to differentiate them; additionally all salads can be topped with warm grilled or crispy chicken. All of its salads are part of McDonald's move towards creating a healthier image.

- In the U.S., the entrée is a choice of hamburger, cheeseburger, or a four or six piece order of Chicken McNuggets; the sides are a choice of fries or sliced apple with caramel dip. Milk, chocolate milk, boxed apple juice, and the traditional soda are choices for drinks.
- In the UK, the entrée is a choice of hamburger, cheeseburger, four Chicken McNuggets, or three fish sticks; the sides are a choice of fries, carrot sticks or sliced apples and grapes.

[edit] Desserts

A soft serve ice cream product is available in several forms, including sundaes, cones (either vanilla, chocolate (Most McDonalds have discontinued to sell it, due to it being an "optional" item) or chocolate-dipped), and as the primary ingredient in the McFlurry. As with many other formulations of soft serve, cellulose gum is utilized as an extender and thickener.[16]
- The McFlurry is a vanilla ice cream dessert that has pieces of candy, fruit or cookies mixed into it. The mixing blade for the dessert is actually a specially designed spoon with a hollow handle that attaches to the mixer spindle. The blade is used once then given to the customer to use to eat the product. Available in most of its markets. However not in New Zealand as it was discontinued in 2003, and still hasn't returned despite customer demand.[17]

McDogs - McDonald's version of hot dogs.
Hulaburger: A Ray Kroc invention, it featured a slice of pineapple instead of meat. Originally intended for Roman Catholics who were not allowed to eat meat on Fridays during Lent. It was test-marketed in 1963.[18]
McFeast: A hamburger with a slice of ham and cheese, in certain markets in the late 1970s. The name McFeast lives on though in the Nordic countries, where a McFeast has been served since the mid-1980s in Sweden and later introduced to the rest of the Nordic countries, the McFeast in Sweden contains a quarter pounder patty, lettuce, modified mayonnaise with lemon juice, onion and tomato. In the rest of the countries, the McFeast also contains ketchup, but not in Sweden. The same burger was sold under the name Mega Feast in New Zealand for several years during the 1990s, but has since been discontinued. The McFeast was sold in Australia until late 2009 and contained: mustard, ketchup, large onions, McChicken sauce, lettuce, 1 tomato slice, regular cheese and a 4:1 quarter pounder patty served in a Quarter Pounder/McChicken Bun.
McDLT: The McDLT (McDonald's Lettuce and Tomato) was sold in a novel form of packaging.[19] The McDLT was introduced in the fall of 1984 as the Lettuce and Tomato Special. The meat and bottom half of the bun were prepared separately from the lettuce, tomato, American cheese, pickles, sauces, and top half of the bun. Both were then packaged into a specially designed two-sided styrofoam container. The consumer was then expected to finalize preparation of the sandwich by combining the hot and cool sides just prior to eating. It was discontinued in 1990 due to environmental concerns with styrofoam.
McChicken LT (McDonald's Chicken Lettuce and Tomato) was the chicken version of the McDLT featuring the same two-sided container as the McDLT except the packaging was yellow instead of white. It was introduced about the same time as the McDLT in the mid-1980s. The chicken was a grilled, unbreaded chicken breast placed on the heel of the bun in one of the compartments. The toppings were shredded lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise assembled on the top half of the bun in the other compartment. Cheese was an optional addition for an extra US$0.10. The grilled chicken breast was then basted with a brushing of melted butter. As with the McDLT, the consumer would finalize preparation of the sandwich by combining the hot and cool sides just prior to eating. The McChicken LT was discontinued in the Fall of 1987.
Beefsteak Sandwich - test-marketed in New York and other East Coast markets in 1980 and as far west as Chicago were part of a McDonald's "Dinner Menu", offered only after 4:00 p.m. The Beefsteak Sandwich was essentially an elongated hamburger of a different quality served on a short French roll, similar to a sub or hero roll. Packets of steak sauce (A1 sauce in Chicago) were available for the sandwich.
In 1993, McDonald's tested a bigger burger called the Mickey D in about 100 restaurants in the Midwest. Weighing in at 5.3 ounces, it was the largest burger on the menu, topping the Quarter Pounder and Big Mac, which weigh 3.2 ounces each. The Mickey D sold in test markets for US$2.29. It had a one-third-pound beef patty on a crusty roll, Cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, red onions and a special spicy sauce. Testing of the Mickey D began in early January 1993. It expanded nationwide during the summer of 1993 and was discontinued that fall.
Onion Nuggets - introduced at the same time as the Beefsteak Sandwich as the side item for the Dinner Menu. Onion Nuggets were chopped onions shaped into small solid pieces, dipped in batter and deep-fried.

Spicy Chicken - Chicken breast with spicy breading introduced in 2006
McWraps - Chicken Caesar, Chicken and Garden Salad wraps served toasted in a thick herb flat bread.
Fried Roast Beef Sandwich - Inspired by a franchisee's version of an Arby's sandwich, the sandwich failed due to the costs of getting roast beef slicers, no matter how many sandwiches they could sell, it would never turn a profit.[3]
Philly Cheesesteak - Slices of steak and Swiss cheese with onions. Served until August 2007 at Australian and American McDonald’s. This sandwich is still available in Canada, made with cheese spread instead of Swiss, and with green bell pepper.
Pizza / McPizza - McDonald's has also attempted pizza at various times, with an apple-pie–like McPizza and more conventional McDonald's Pizza.

In British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland & Labrador, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia (c. 1992-1997), the pizza originally began as a family-sized pizza that was brought out to the table by an employee and placed on a raised rack in the centre of the table. Later it was scaled down to a personal-sized pizza. However, variations have found their way into some international markets such as India (the pie-like "Pizza McPuff"). McDonald's also test marketed a 14-inch, round, traditional-style pizza in Evansville, Indiana, and nearby Owensboro, Kentucky, in 1989.[20] By 1991, the McDonald's test markets for pizza had grown to over 500 McDonald's locations before the pizza test was placed on hold.[21] Pizza is still sold at two McDonald's locations in Orlando, Florida and Spencer, West Virginia.
Hot Dogs - In his 1977 autobiography CEO Ray Kroc prohibited the company from selling hot dogs, regardless of potential demand, as he regarded them as unhygienic; however, hot dogs were introduced in 1995 at some Midwestern located stores (at the option of the franchise-holder) as a summer item. UK stores sold hot dogs during the late nineties on the McChoice menu (later PoundSaver). Also, at least one American restaurant offered Oscar Mayer hot dogs at some time, notably in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, and McDonald's locations at Toronto Metro Zoo and SkyDome in Toronto offered hot dogs until 1999. In Tokyo locations, hot dogs were available in 2001, and have been reintroduced for 2009, dubbed the "McHot Dog."
Bratwurst - For a few years during the 1990s, Johnsonville brand brats were sold in some US markets for a limited time each fall. A few locations in Eastern Wisconsin (near the Johnsonville headquarters) still offer bratwursts on a seasonal basis.
Corn dogs - For a brief time in 2001, Columbus, OH, area McDonald's offered a multi-pack of mini corn dogs without sticks.

Dinner Menu - After testing pasta in the South in 1989, McDonald's began testing a pasta-based menu at 40 units across Rochester, N.Y., in September 1991, including lasagna, fettuccine alfredo, and spaghetti with meatballs.[21] In the early 1990s, a new Dinner Menu was tested for 6–12 months at two locations in New York and Tennessee. It consisted of the above mentioned pizza but also included lasagna, spaghetti, fettuccine alfredo, and roasted chicken as entrees. The side dishes included mashed potatoes and gravy and a vegetable medley.[citation needed] For the dessert, it included a brownie à la mode.[citation needed]
Chicken Fajitas - The Chicken Fajitas consisted of a small soft tortilla, a grilled vegetable medley, and grilled chicken. The fajita was in the traditional thin wrapping paper and given that way.

Happy Meal Breakfast - The Happy Meal Breakfast was a meal that was smaller than the traditional breakfast that lasted from the 1980s to 2009. It was discontinued by advice of the Nutrition department at the Corporate Headquarters in Oak Brook, IL, because it wasn't made for kids and so forth. Still sold in Hong Kong.

I don't believe so, but The General is our resident expert on McDonald's. The man loves his McMuffins.

The General is known to travel for McDicks. Do you remember the great McMuffin heist of 2003 in Idaho? The General was rounded up for questioning.

So no posters from the maritimes or Maine here on SBR to confirm the availability of this?
