McDonald's has driven people around the world crazy mainly with the speed of the service it offers. It's not appropriate to rush to every restaurant completely drenched in sweat and order a dish that you receive within a few minutes.

The chain of fast food restaurants McDonald's has long fascinated a large number of people around the world. Its most recognizable hamburger, the Big Mac, is particularly popular. And what happened to the man who ate 30 thousand Big Macs in 48 years?
McDonald's is both the Mecca of American excess and the Mecca of delicious fries. Although they have often not escaped bad publicity, not every product is as high in calories as you might think. You will be quite surprised.
Before Donald Trump became the US president, he did many things. Due to his recognition, he also appeared in many films and advertisements, but you probably did not know that he also appeared in a commercial for McDonald's.
The days when you will no longer have to stand in line for a Big Mac, fries and McNuggets are near. McDonald's has revealed plans for home delivery of its food. Instead of pizza or Chinese food, you will be able to order a McDonald's burger to your home in the future. Because you've always wanted to.
As you probably know, McDonald's straws are slightly wider than regular ones, which is no coincidence, as this brings out a fuller taste. But not in the case of the new Double Chocolate Mint Milkshake. That's why McDonald's hired engineers to develop a straw that would deliver both flavors to the palate in the right ratio at the same time. And the revolutionary STRAW was born. But even more than this, it impresses the way in which they went about presenting the innovative straw, with which McDonald's is more than obviously making fun of Apple.
Is Slovenian McDonald's saying goodbye to students in its fast food restaurants? No, they just strengthened their team with retirees. In November, McDonald's organized a call to attract pensioners who wanted to work. They will work in Ljubljana and Maribor from January 2017.
McDonald's most famous hamburger, the Big Mac, has lost its father. Michael "Jim" Delligatti, once the owner of the McDonald's franchise in Uniontown (Pennsylvania, USA), created the popular burger with two beef patties back in 1967. During this time, it became one of the most recognizable American exports and a symbol of capitalism.
Nutella lovers, beware! McDonald's has added a Nutella burger called Sweety con Nutella to its menu. It looks like a regular burger, with the difference that instead of meat, it contains a thick layer of Nutella spread. Currently, you can only order it in Nutella's home country, Italy. So you'll have to drive to our western neighbors for a Nutella-filled burger.
Would you drink juice from a McDonalds burger and fries and a Coke? The guys at Bad Things For Bad People put the smoothies to the test for you, so you don't have to fly to hug the clam!
Did you know that McDonald's doesn't serve the same size portions of fries around the world? For example, a medium-sized Japanese fry has 454 calories, while a British one has "only" 337. The same applies to other fast food chains, such as KFC and Subway, where the same portions vary considerably. The same KFC hamburger in Canada is, for example, 35 grams heavier than its Australian "twin brother", and it also has 122 more calories. Check out other interesting comparisons of fast food portion sizes around the world.
The placemats that accompany the trays at McDonalds are usually printed with meal offers, but not in the Netherlands, where McDonalds placemats have become working mixers that you can use to create music with your smartphone. "We're lovin' it!"
