![]() ![]() He also notes that McDonald’s prepares the Big Mac upside down so that the beef juices drip into the toppings rather than straight into the bun. The living legend Kenji Lopez-Alt wrote an article comparing a “Mac-ified” McDouble and a true Big Mac, and found that the weight difference between the two is twenty-eight grams, all attributed to the middle bun. I know the Big Mac is not the only cheeseburger at McDonald’s, and it’s not like they advertise it as the best and biggest thing on the menu, but it is the standard-bearer for the chain, and it doesn’t quite live up to the name. I love Mac Sauce and lettuce on a burger, but you can easily customize your McDouble to include those things. I have always felt that it is essentially a McDouble with lettuce, Mac Sauce, and an unnecessary middle bun. It’s not bad, I still get the occasional one, but it’s not the burger it’s generally made out to be. ![]() This is probably going to ruffle some feathers, and it may be the most controversial opinion in the article, but the Big Mac is overrated.

McDonald’s, of course, is a mammoth of the industry: one of the most recognizable brands on the planet, a trailblazer that set the standard for what a burger chain can be, and currently has the second most locations of any franchise in the world (behind only Subway). These two chains have been worldwide staples of the fast food market for decades. ![]() But there is perhaps no bigger, more revealing question than the one we’re about to explore in regards to the burger: McDonald’s or Wendy’s? That’s probably why they are such great fodder for small (and medium!) talk, and why some of them have remained pop culture mainstays for years. Monica or Rachel? Coke or Pepsi? Boxers or briefs? Loving Ocean’s 11 or taking things too seriously? Even if you like both options on questions like these, you ultimately have to pick one favorite, and your answer can say something about you as a person. By Daniel Goldsmith 3 years ago Wendy’s or McDonald’s – which of these burger chains reigns supreme?
