On March 10, 2020, Food and Wine informed us that McDonald's was going to start serving Big Macs with four hamburger patties, to be called the Double Big Mac. Do you recall what else happened on March 10, 2020? My kids called me from from school crying because they were told to vacate their dorms by Friday and go home. Their graduation was off because the school was shutting down due to the COVID-19 epidemic. Also, the Double Big Mac didn't get much notice for its limited run.
Four years later, McDonald's is going to try this again. The Double Big Mac will be on the menu starting on January 24, for a limited time at participating restaurants. If it sells well, this massive meat monster could find a permanent place on the menu. The real question is: how much will it cost? A company spokesman wouldn't say, because prices will vary by location. True carnivores should start saving up. -via Mental Floss

I guess I'll need a bank loan to afford that burger. We quit going to McDonalds when an order for 2 adults cost more than the cost of 2 meals at a sit in restaurant.

As a regular McDonald's hamburger patty is about 1½ ounces after cooking if you are lucky, this won't satisfy many people. And you can bet your life that it will look nothing like the picture.

Huh, this is just a regular menu item here in the Great White North. Not personally a fan of the doubling of meat in the original burgers at any place, but to each their own.
