    Anyone try the new McMor yet? Had one today, thought it was a bit bland to be honest, will be back to the trusty Big Mac in future I think!

    Often amazed at the promotion ballymaloe gets since the whole 'computer' incident. I point blankly refuse to buy anything associated with it.

    It's nothing to write home about. The most interesting thing is their tills not managing the ó at all on receipts to be honest. It's no Striker (a summer 2012 special at mcds with enmenthal sauce) anyway

    Don't think you can tar a whole business/family by the actions of one individual.

    Standing by him after he pleaded guilty to child pornograpghy charges (nearly a thousand images) tars them all, or Darina Allen at least, with the same brush as far as I'm concerned.

    But people's moral compasses are all set differently and none of it affects the taste I'm sure.

    The real vs. marketing pictures are probably less severe a disappointment than a Big Mac tbh. Its usually half the height or less than the suggestion of the photo.

    This is not the place to discuss anything other than food. No more references to any criminal matters or anything related to it. This will be the only warning given.

    +1, the second one looks quite good. I got a regular cheeseburger in BK a few weeks ago and it was perfect looking.

    I think some of the "actual" photos you see might be purposely messed up and squished by the photographer to exaggerate the point.

    I like the fact on yelp you can see real photos of what to expect.

    I remember when there was a hacked version of the app going around at Christmas eating a lot of Mcdonalds special burgers as free prizes, all universally bland, completely tasteless meals, put me off ever actually paying for one again especially for €8 or whatever this would cost. Dont really pay for any takeaway since I got my Airfryer tbh.
