The Big Mac is my favorite burger at McDonalds. No tomatoes, small diced onions that add crunchiness, pickles for more crunchiness, and the amazing orange mystery sauce. An awesome combination. But I still have to add ketchup. I was craving the burger on Saturday so I had McDonalds for lunch.

I ordered a Big Mac meal which allowed me to get another burger for $1 so I got another Big Mac. I also ordered two 99cent double cheese burgers. For the drink, I got a mix of 80% unsweetened iced tea and Coca-Cola. Even though I got 4 burgers, fries and a drink, for lunch I ate only ate one Big Mac, one double cheese burger, half the box of fries(my mom ate the other half) and the drink. I saved the two other burgers for the next day.

I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve forgotten how a Big Mac is supposed to be or the higher food prices in the US, but I felt the Big Mac wasn’t big at all. It felt so light. And then when I opened it up, the meat patty was so small. “WHERE’S THE BEEF?” (reference to that commercial with the old lady) I was disappointed. I tasted more bread than burger. But it turns out that the small Big Mac has 540 calories. From what? The mystery sauce? Dang it! I ended up eating 2300 calories that day. Lately I’ve been eating about 900 calories a day which causes me to lose about a pound a day, but after this, I’m probably gaining 3.
