Probability of second Trump presidency drops sharply as McDonald's announces quadruple-patty double Big Mac [1]
['Rob Beschizza']
Date: 2024-01-26
Behold the Double Big Mac, available from a McDonald's near you and only until the deep state's objective is met. The post-Supersize Me era of restraint is over: plug those arteries!
The Double Big Mac, according to the McDonald's mobile app, has 780 calories with 48 grams of fat—and that, of course, doesn't include the half-gallon of coke you'll wash it down with or the fries.
Axios found the Double Big Mac was $6.99 at an Atlanta restaurant ($10.99 as a meal), $7.09 at a Miami location ($10.59 for a meal) and $7.99 at a Manhattan location ($12.39 for a meal).
Ben Cost, at the New York Post, reviewed it. It's a big Big Mac.
Adding two extra patties lends the Mac the perfect meat-to-carb ratio, making it more on par with a Double Quarter Pounder with cheese. However, with 780 calories compared to a regular Mac's 563, it likely also obstructs the arteries twice as fast. The only other downside is that the one cheese square — the same portion as the regular Big Mac — is perhaps not enough to balance out the extra beef.
Good call not to double the mezzanine bun.
