Very rarely go to McDonald's but can't deny I enjoy the burgers when I do. Has anyone seen that McDonald's film The Founder? Stars Michael Keaton as Ray Kroc. It's a good watch (but made me hungry). And if we're talking food films...Chef had my stomach rumbling.

Big tasty's are very nice. I like one of them to accompany my 20 nuggets and chips.

If they aren't on, I get a couple of double cheeseburgers, also very yummy, especially if tipsy or rough.

Like most fast food “restaurants” there are variations in quality. I notice there’s a more consistent quality in Maccy D’s, but if you find a good Burger King - nothing and I repeat NOTHING beats a well made Whopper burger.

I consider myself an expert on hamburgers, having always lived in North America. Mickey D's (McDonald's) has always led the pack, thanks largely to snappy advertising campaigns ("You deserve a break today, So get up and get away, To McDonald's," was one of the better ones, almost as good as some of the Coke commercials.) Today, people who know burgers tend to gravitate to the independent joints, like Starr Burger, at the corner of Starr & Brock in Whitby, or Dine's (slogan, Dine at Dine's, get it?) in Oshawa. Whatever, your cholesterol count will still go through the roof, but it will always beat black pudding.

If you’ve had a good burger, you shouldn’t be able to eat two more.

Utter, utter, utter shite. Why would you even consider eating this dross. Not even fast food if you actually queue up for it. Good grief. FFS. Fish chips and mushy peas are just as quick, taste much better, pay homage to those tiresome hippies and give you part of your 5 a day.

It’s bread and beef patte, what exactly do you think they are putting in them? No Dr is ever gonna recommend eating a burger weather it’s from McDonald’s or a gastro pub. So many food snobs out there it’s just a burger get off your high horses

When I lived in Beit shean, Israel they had McDavids, a kosher burger joint.

Luckily though just down the road was the border crossing to Jordan, quite close to my Kibbutz. There was a full on Mac Donalds there. I'm not their best fan but would have a Big Mac, whereas my mate would always get 5 cheese burgers. Fat f○ck

Since when has McPukes been making edible burgers? They taste like sawdust! Burger King and Wendy’s aren’t far behind. Harveys make the only decent burger available at a fast food type outlet, at least they taste like a burger, and one can choose the toppings, not the ‘production line’ toppings! Best burgers are home made…..fresh lean ground beef, a little seasoned salt, pinch of garlic powder and done to perfection on the bbq.

I quite enjoy a McDonalds every so often. Breakfast stuff is always decent.

As for actual burgers. Nothing comes anywhere close to how good In N Out Burgers are. Immense. If you ever get the chance to go, do it. They’ve also got a “secret” menu you can have too.

Finally! Someone else who doesn't rate them. The burgers are so bland, and the chips are awful. And you pay about £16 (in London anyway) for burger chips and a bottle of water.

McDonalds is easily the best fast-food burger.

Having been to Scotland a few times and sampled Scottish Breakfasts in hotels etc, let me just say I prefer their "Black Pudding" to the "White Pudding" (wtf is a white pudding) although it can't beat a good old Lancashire Black Pudding (and I am a yorkshireman lol)
