I am writing this review with a heavy heart as you are my favourite quality restaurant - serving up delicious and healthy burgers time after time.
My problem concerns the Bacon and Egg McMuffin with Cheese.
Someone on the internet described how they could make one at home. They showed a picture and it looked a bit like one of your superior versions - but it had the cheese at the bottom! Underneath the egg!!!
I immediately rushed to your defence. "My favourite McDonald's" I explained, "Would NEVER put the cheese at the bottom - that is madness". I typed several angry pages of comment on the blog post. The writer or cook said that was exactly how McDonald's served up their burger. After many hours of fraught exchanges I began to doubt my own knowledge of your Muffin.
Do you really put the cheese at the bottom? It is obvious to me that the cheese should go on top of the hot ingredients resulting in a satisfying melt experience. I remained convinced that the number one restaurant in the world could not make such an amateur mistake.
I went to my local restaurant. "An Egg and Bacon McMuffin with cheese" I demanded. They refused to serve me - it was after the cut-off time for the breakfast menu. I argued with your staff there and they banned me for threatening behaviour. That was fair - I used the word "castration" as a figure of speech, not an implied threat. The police saw it differently.
The following day at the right breakfast menu time I went to a different McDonald's restaurant. It was twenty kilometres away from my usual place - so I hope you will lift the ban soon. I ordered the delicious treat and waited with eagerness.
I sat at my table and unwrapped my McMuffin. As it dripped fat onto my seat I noticed the cheese was indeed at the bottom. Not on the top where it should be.
I rushed back into the restaurant. "What the f--- is this?" I shouted at your staff. "Where's the flippin' cook?". The manager asked me what my problem was. "Cheese... in... the.. wrong... place" I gasped - my breathing being affected by stress. "Should... be.. on... the... top".
"Why don't you turn it the other way up?" said the manager. I lost it. With my dressing gown by now flapping dangerously open I tore into him. "You moron" I shouted, and I pointed out that the flat bottom half of the bun would be in the wrong place. He agreed with me and decided that cheese should be In its rightful place, ontop. Together we plan on changing this fiasco but we need your help.
As soon as I am released from custody I would appreciate an Egg and Bacon McMuffin with Cheese done in the correct way, with the cheese on top.
Until then thank you for providing convenient, clean, friendly restaurants.
Your grateful customer,
