We shorten words so you don’t get flies in your mouth wasting syllables
Nah be honest. We are just too bloody lazy and proud of itto be bothered saying some ridiculously long word so the shorter the better. Geez even this took too much effort.
😂😂😂
We like to make life easier for ourselves. Doesn't make us lazy mate lol
loool@@fasteddie9201
In Australia we take short words and lengthen them and long words we shorten the fuck out of them lol. Don't ask why.....we just do.
The origins of the 'spider' in Australia was a glass of coke with a scoop of icecream, found in most corner delis from the late 40's and 50's.
Think the US would call this an ice cream float.
Americans call it a coke float often made with root beer instead of coke.
and 60s and 70s and 80s and .......
Mainly Fanta !
The McCafe was invented in Australia. It is part of the same building, but has a separate counter. You can order just McCafe items from the McCafe… or you can add a McCafe item to your main Maccas order at the main counter or even the drive through. Drive throughs will also have a separate window for McCafe items for pick up.
Some of them have the separate windows. It depends on when the Maccas was built and the McCafe added.
$30 AUD = $19 USD. In Australia $30 is the full price tax inc plus we don't need to tip. 😂
FYI 🇺🇸 vs 🇦🇺 🍟 ingredients:
🇦🇺AUSTRALIA: 3 ingredients
POTATOES
OIL
SALT
🇺🇸USA: 19 Ingredients
Potatoes
Canola oil
Soybean oil
Hydrogenated soybean oil
Natural beef flavour
Hydrolyzed wheat
Hydrolyzed milk
Citric acid
Dimethylpolysiloxane
Dextrose
Sodium acid pyrophosphate
Salt
Canola oil
Corn oil
Soybean oil
Hydrogenated soybean oil
TBHQ tert-Butylhydroquinone
Citric acid
Dimethylpolysiloxane
Yes, canola and soybean oil are listed twice. So are hydrogenated soybean oil, citric acid and dimethylpolysiloxane.
As they are in 2 states of processing.
WTF?!
I've seen that episode too.
@@kanedaku scary shit
@@shmick6079 oh yeah Maccas US doesn't care what crap you eat so long as its cheap. I'm not sure on Europe but I'm pretty sure they are the same as Aussies
Depends on where you are in Australia. You can also design your own burgers. They serve it on a wooden platter with fries served in a metal basket. It looks nothing like McDonalds. And you can now order brekkie menu items all day. All the best from Melbourne Australia
Some stores have Maccas as their actual signage… instead of McDonalds.
What the f is McDonalds? 😂
@@xpistolbaked Are you serious? Are you really this ignorant? McDonalds is called Maccas in Australia. In the US they will often call it ‘Mickey D’s’.
@@aussieragdoll4840it’s called sarcasm 😂😂
@@Amanda-uc5jq You need to learn that sarcasm does NOT work in written form.
@@aussieragdoll4840 YOU need to learn it does even if you can’t tell yourself. Try looking at context & in this case emojis 🤷♀️
Even if it wasn’t sarcasm your response was a little OTT for the comment made with a laughing emoji 🙄
Scones in Australia are what you would call a biscuit, while a biscuit is what you call a cookie.
😂 I’m an Aussie and a scone is a British thing you put jam on it 😂 it’s ain’t a biscuit or cookie
Scones would be like the biscuits in biscuits and gravy. Not exactly the same, but that's the best way I can explain it to you. They're a dense bready product, not quite a dumpling, but far denser than a crumpet or cake.
@@AndyViant that’s an American thing. A scone is from Britain.
@@lezbarker2673 trying to explain it to "Muricans, mate. I'm an Aussie I know what a scone is.
I want a crumpet, but not all of it, just some of it. 😅
Scone is singular, scones is plural.a scone is a round ,flattened on the bottom bread like baked object.usually served hot with whipped cream and strawberry jam. I also like to butter mine before adding the cream and jam.
what i think americans call a biscuit
@@edwardt1941I see the grammar mistake, where "of" should be "for". Sometimes I will change a word or two in a sentence and I don't read the sentence after (to see if it's correct before posting). And (more often than not) I have to change another couple of words (that was originally ok) until I edited the comment. So when I change a word to what I want, it can make another word (or words) not OK! And the sentence makes no sense. I fall for that a LOT cos I tweak my sentences too much (and I have to re-read it but I don't and end up with shitty grammar). Maybe that happened with this dude's comment. And editing a comment is a nightmare (the algorithm goes troppo haywire). I don't know what they did to the edit algorithm but it sucks! So if I re-edit a comment (again) the algorithm tends to often UNDO the previous edit. WTF? Why would it do that? That is friggin' crazy! 🤔
I found the prices pretty much the same. And they are right. The quality of the food in Australia is much better.
Remember there is an exchange rate. So $30 might be more like US$20
And as a Macca's veteran of over 6 years, the 10:1 patties used on Big Mac and the hamburger/cheeseburger products, they are the same 42.5g patties as used in the US. If you wanted to go bigger, you would use the 4:1 patties off a quarter pounder (hence the name) instead of the 10:1.
Breakfast here is pretty good.
You have very good grammar for a 6.5 year old.
Can't go wrong with a ham, cheese, tomato and onion toasted sandwich with salt and pepper. The idea of mushrooms with the loaded fries was awesome mate.😊
This video you are looking at is three years old. Prices have gone up since then. That Maccas is on George Street in the centre of Sydney… in an old bank building & has seating both downstairs, and in a gallery upstairs.
Australian burgers with the lot non Macca’s. Onion, egg, 0:15 cheese, pineapple, bacon, lettuce, beetroot, meat and a bun all prepared on an hot plate.
You forgot the onions! 😂
'Spider' is an old term in Australia for a drink where you add ice-cream to a flavoured soda drink. It usually makes the soda 'fizz' up.
You don’t need maccas to get an ice cream spider. You just need vanilla ice cream and the soft drink you like best. Get a scoop of ice cream in a cup then poor coke or lemonade etc etc and there you have it. Yummy !! 👍🏻🇦🇺
Their video was about 3 years ago so some items at McDonald's Australia have changed since.
Scone is one, scones is 2+ ( plural that's all ) are the round shaped biscuit dough that's baked and served with jam and cream. The British eat a lot for morning/ afternoon teas. Aussie's love them too.
Away from the major cities where they are limited for space Macca's looks totally different. We have the main restaurant but we also have an added wing attached which serves barista type coffees and a huge selection of cakes and pastries. Like a huge patisserie. Great for when ppl travel or just meeting up with a friend. No hamburgers ordered in that section. You can sit or take it away. Also there is a children's play area attached. Oh yeah there is a breed of beef cattle in Australia called Angus cows. Hence Angus burger ! Farm fresh.
You would be shocked if you knew how many bad food additives are in American McDonalds compared to every other country. I wouldn't touch yours with a ten foot pole after I saw the list. Sad but true. Look it up it will shock you .
Think of an American Biscuit and you're super close to a Scone. Only a very small difference. Where in the US, you have them mostly as a savoury option. The Scone is mostly used as an option for sweet toppings.
11:55 it's like a slushy with soft-serve vanilla ice-cream on top. A spider is any 'soda pop' with vanilla ice-cream
thank you
And you mix the icecream up into the softdrink(soda),but be careful it doesn't fizz up too much.A lime or Sars Spider is the best.😊
That is a labourer's breakfast! You should try a traditional Aussie burger. From bottom to top - Toasted bun, tomato, lettuce, beetroot, meat patties, caramelised onion, tomato sauce(ketchup), a strip of bacon, a slice of cheese, a slice of grilles pineapple, bun top.
A meal that will get a worker from lunch to knock off, get a farmer home after church and straight into the field until sundown, or just give you a food coma.😂
Black Angus is the breed of cattle used in the burgers home grown beef of course
Double big mac is currently $9.70 Australian which is US$6.34 on today's exchange rate.
Better than that we have Wagyu burgers. High end Australian Wagyu is right up there with Kobe Beef. Sure the Australian Wagyu used by McDonalds is only Wagyu hybrids rather than purebred A5 Wagyu but they're still at least genetically 50% Wagyu cattle and it is absolutely delicious.
The loaded fries are not large at all. This video is old and things are much more expensive now. You have tomato and cheese on pizza. Of course it tastes good. A "spider" is a different name for an ice cream soda. The four patties on the burger were standard size patties. A scone is a bit like your "biscuit" that you have with gravy, only it's fluffy and eaten with cream and jam.
A simple scone recipe is 3 cups of self-raising flour, 1 cup of thick cream and 1 cup of Lemonade (Sprite) + pinch of salt. Mix together roll out. Cut with a scone cutter (coke can cut in half) bake at 260 Deg C until just brown or hollow sounding when tapped. While hot, split in half dollop of strawberry jam and top with whipped cream and watch it "evaporate". I make about 6 to 7 dozen at a time and give them to the nursing staff at my local hospital's A&E.
In the US lemonade is more like Lemon squash not the same as Lemonade in Australia.
@@continental_drift yep. and that's why i added Sprite in the brackets. Have a good one.
We cut words off or shorten words as we don't have a enough time in the day to say the whole word.
Spider is a term for icecream and soda. Coffee and icecream is an affogato, also delicious. You can get them at Maccas or 7-Eleven.
I think she's a vegetarian by the way which is why he's on the double size burgers and she's on the sugar rush.
The double Big Mac has four beef patties, you can also(now)get a triple Big Mac. The Loade Fries also come with sour ceam and sweet chili sauce.
Aussie dollar is roughly 65 cents US and the price includes tax on everything. So the price tag you see for everything is the price you pay at the check-out
Even our McDonalds app is called My Maccas lol
Macca’s is not a slang term. Over a year ago McDonalds officially started changing all of the signs to Macca’s for our 50th birthday. We always refused to call them anything else. We have Macca’s that serve breakfast all day and we have ones with table service where everything is delivered on fancy boards. We have separate McCafes in the bigger Cities but they are inside but separate in other places.
The difference between our Macca’s and America’s is ours are clean, the choices are better and they have a healthy choice menu for Diabetics like me. Yes, I have been to American ones and I had trouble finding a clean table.
I agree. I tried McDonald's in the US it was nasty.
OK, scones. Your 'biscuits with gravy' would be our scones. There are slight differences in the recipe (your biscuits should have more butter), but are basically the same. In the US they're more likely to have savoury ingredients added (eg. cheese), while in Australia we are more likely to add sweet (dates, sultanas, etc).
For pronounciation, we'd say 'scon' (pronounced like John) - except for the town, which is known as Scone (pronounced like cone). Scones is just the plural. Maccas are going to say 'Scone' because under no circumstances are you going to get an extra one out of them for free. Go into just about any other shop, and a serving of Scones with Jam & Cream would be at least 2 scones.
Yes, we shorten everything. 'G-day, ow's it goin' would be, 'Good day, how is it going'. Brekkie - breakfast, Arvo - Afternoon, Barbie - Bar-be-que, On ya - Good on you, and so on. If it can be shortened it will be, if it can't be shortened, we'll shorten it anyway.
You can order egg anytime, but it throws most as it's in the breakie menu only.
Don’t forget the conversation rate to American dollar value. $30 Au, about $42 American.
It’s pronounced Sc..on…es. It’s a sweet bun/cake.
Spider is a Soda drink with Ice cream on top .
To Australians- a cheese & tomato/ ham & cheese/ ham, cheese & tomato sanga, fresh or toasted is a bit like your PB&J- they've been a staple of kids' lunches, & easy lazy meals if you don't really feel like 'cooking'...
Originally a spider was ice cream in a coke, it tastes a bit like a vanilla coke. Now they do it with all the flavours
i grew up in the 70s, always thought it was lemonade as thats all i had.
My dad used to make us Lime spiders in the summer. Was a bit special.
spiders are technically made using Lemonade, Ice Cream, and ice cream topping. Coke and other flavoured drinks are just knock offs, and often called Floaters. Blue Heaven Spiders are my fave. Lime Spiders are also a fave.
@@namewithheldbygoogleforsec673 cheers, I didn't know that. My only reference was what my parents gave us in the seventies. Loved them as a kid, I haven't had one in the longest time
@@glenod my story is the same, 70s kid, thought it was coke because it's all I'd had. Maybe we did it differently in Australia, I don't know
We shorten long name's and lengthen short ones 😂😂 love an Aussie❤😂
A spyder/spider is a soda with icecream, it makes the icecream really fizzy. A scone is like what you call a biscuit except made with flour where yours are made with cornflour. Scone is 1, scones are 2 or more and is eaten as a sweet typically with cream & strawberry jam
Good Choice there for a feed - Softer bacon & an egg that breaks the yolk over your food = perfect combo with BBQ sauce too,
Us Aussies shorten every word we can....just to make a conversation faster! it's all about time management.....the beer is getting warm mate, I gotta go!
We shorten words in Australia because we don't believe in wasting time.
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa thanks G see how i shorten your name kinda cool to be called G
Breakfast burger is sausage patty and egg... They used to do all day breakfast but stopped it...
As far as I understand most food items that we consider as Large would be classified as Small in the US. America seems to make everything supersized. The food in America also contains a whole list of artificial ingredients which you would not find in other countries. That's why America has the biggest overweight population in the world. If you take any item and compare the ingredients for the same item in other countries you will see the list is 2x-3x bigger on the US product
Dude, this is only available in Maccas Darling Harbour, not your local Maccas. Come to the burbs and you'll pay $30 for 3 burgers. Oh and it's scone like the Scottish "Stone of Scone", scones if there's 2 or more. Pronounced "scon" in south "scoan" in the east. A "spider" is what you guys call an "ice cream float", very 1950s.
In Australia we have a whole breakfast menu so they did do breakfast all day for awhile but it got too much as we have bacon and egg McMuffins, pancakes, sausage and egg McMuffins and other breakfast items so it’s just too much for the workers to make so many things during the day.
A spider is what the US calls a float, its soft drink(soda) and vanilla ice cream
Our Maccas restaurants have a McCafe attached with great barista coffee and cakes, muffins, banana bread etc. If you google Big Mac sauce recipe you can make it at home.
Cheese toasties, cheese and ham toasties and cheese tomato and ham toasties are not generally eaten with soup in Australia. I discovered that was a thing when I was living in the USA... I dipped my cheese toasty in my soup at work the other day (back in Australia) and got some looks!
That’s all in Australian dollars, not US. So that $30 was more like $19 USD.
I always knew it as a float, not a spider
In the UK, all McDonald's now serve breakfast until 11am.
It was first five as a trial and became an overnight, instant incredible success.
Everybody demanded it be made permanent and it has.
Ice-cream mixed with soda is a spider and Loaded fries is a staple down hear as being a kid we always got gravy on our chips/fries from the small local fish and chip shops because it was so cheap....
with the price dont forget the conversion rate from AUD to USD too which would make it so much more cheaper in the US
Tom Bodett is/was the spokesperson for Motel 6.
A spider is basically a float. In this case it’s a frozen one.
Not sure why i even clicked this video but i liked for you saying maccas lol
haaaaaaaaaaa
Some people also call McDonald’s in Australia- Chew N Spew
The closest American equivalent to The Spider is what the Americans know as a Root Beer Float.
A Spider can be dome with almost any softdrink/soda, Any ice cream can be used, but it's usually done with vanilla.
The Spider name comes from the reaction between the ice cream and the soft drink. The glass will occasionally overflow, making the floating scoop if ice cream and the streaks of drink down the glass look like a spider.
Just watching now ... those are Australian dollars ... so $30 is like $19! USD
The reason he stated about turning the burger upside down, allows him to taste the sesame seeds; as the tongue is covered in taste buds.
McChicken big macs and Creme Broulee iced frappes are the best thing at the moment.
It’s 62 cents to our dollar at the moment so that so be nearly half price for your money
Spot on mate. They called those fries a share pack
Remember $30 here is about $22 in USA
not to bad
Is that a microphone or cat? Hahahaha, audibly lol'd
haaaaaaaaa
We say it to rhyme with Tron. “Scon “. Roughly same as your ‘biscuit’.
You can also get a Pounder here. So like a 1/4 pounder… but 4 together… it’s ridiculous lol
McCafe is because we like our coffee barista style not brewed. My one complaint when I was over there was I couldn't find a drinkable cup of coffee. SCONE is an American biscuit, we usually eat it with jam and cream. American cookie is Australian biscuit. ANGUS is the breed of beef. If a cheese and tomato sandwich is made right. It has butter on the inside and on both outsides. 😂a spider is soda with a scoop of ice cream. Since covid most take away places don't use plates, or china cups. Everything comes in bags, boxes and paper/plastic cups.
Scones are like your biscuits but are cooked in oven not in frying pan on top of stove
Our servings are a smaller size than the US
The spider you have to mix the ice cream into the drink. Thats the whole point of it.
Back in the late 90s when I was working at McD;s while in college, the double Big Mac was called a Mega Mac; it was an off menu item but was official (here in the UK), had the buttons on the till for it.
Only in the last few months have I ever seen it advertised on UK telly, although they now call it the Double Big Mac.
Oh, and you're thinking in USD, not AUS$.
G'day CV. Macca's in Australia (here we call Australia 'straya') is very customisable. When you looked at the Big Mac we have a lot of options, eg, we can remove one beef patty, add a chicken patty, and also a fish patty and a bacon slice making the old secret menu Air Sea and Land burger, or just add more stuff. Also, in the Quater Pounder, they will add up to 8 beef patties, making it a Double Pounder. Some of the guys that I work with did a double-pounder challenge, seeing who could eat a double-pounder, large fries and a large soda the fastest. I think all of them but one threw up. Stupidity at its best lmao. That is just the beginning. Keep imagining, and Macca's will probably do it. Also, in Straya a spider is any soda with a scoop of ice cream added. I refuse to eat at Macca's now, I have boycotted the brand since one incident. I wanted a burger with a cup of water. Just water, not soda. They charged me $4.95 for a cup of water. Now Macca's can go join the Far Queue. I have never had Macca's since.
Just sack a scoop of vanilla ice cream in a cup and pour coke over it..that’s a spider..
You said the fries are a large serving? Mackas is known for it's way small portions here in Australia. 😅 Sh*t they must be small in America! 😅
I don't know why we have small size here. Everyone only gets large lol
Spider is the name of the whole dessert, it is like a root beer float, but we use any fizzy aka soda but normally Coke a cola with the vanilla ice cream.
With the toastie, my family also have tomatoe soup with it, but we normally have ham, cheese and tomato toastie.
I bought a Big mac for the first time in over 20 years in recent times and I was shocked, it is the size of a Cheeseburger from the 80's, it has shurnk so much, Personally I will only eat heir food if ther is no other option I feel so ripped off after I buy from them each time.
For a start when Youse come to Australia and want a burger to a FISH N CHIP Shop and grab a real BURGER, It's pretty hard to fugg a burger up but Maccas and HJs seem to know how to everyday all day!!!
Correct!
I agree with you about the Big Mac burger patty's they are thicker in the US.
Not the case with other burgers, though. If you order a quarter pounder or Angus burger, you will be more satisfied with the quality and how filling the burger is in Aus. It's just my take after living in both places. I do love the Aussie breakfast menu!
Many Aussie Macas are 24 x 7. Most are open before 5AM.
CVTECK1, remember that double Bigmac is in AUD so about $.50 USD LOL
give me 5 please with extra cheese
@@CVTECK1 lol
American bread is classed as cake in uk because of the high sugar content
Australia's breakfast is egg and bacon sausagess and hush browns
1 Scone, 2 Scones
It's the same as your 'Biscuits"
Australia is about the most expensive place in the world (except for Mackas). 😅
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
They reduced the size of our big macs about 2 years ago
We also call Maccas, Golden Archers if yar want to Class up the fast food place
The old tomato and cheese toasties just add some ham and a little bit of tomato and you cant go wrong😋😋😋😋
We do have a 24 hour breakfast menu sometimes, it's just not permanent all year round don't forget the ingredients are real and locally sourced, Means if they ran all options 24 hours a day year round they'd be out of certain stock some weeks which means they lose money, And like all major money sinks in the world, Losing money isn't the buisness plan lmao
A Spider iconsist of a scoop of vanilla ice cream in a glass of coke, or fanta, etc.
I don't know if it is just an Australia thing. I have no idea where the name comes from.
I'm 46 and have been eating since I was a kid.
Don't forget that's $20US.
the reason the US serves everything at 4x the size is because 90% of the food in the US is made of sugar and over processed, Our ingredients in AUS are locally sourced and 100% real hence smaller portions but way better taste and value for money
A double quart pounder large meal add 2 bacon is $16
Spider just when u mix icecream with soda
I hate Maccas anyway . I rather by a burger from a small take away shop . They are better . The Pattie’s are made on premises and flattened on a hot plate and cooked . Yum!
Cheese burger and bigmac patties are 10:1 so 10 patties equals a pound of meat
All you need to get is a bottle of coca-cola and vanilla ice cream, put the cola in a glass and a scope of ice cream one top ,there is your spider drink 🍸 ❤
Video is also 4 years old, so prices would be a little higher
That would be ~USD$20
They do sometimes use the full name - Macca Dacca
Also, remember the exchange rate - AUS$30 ~ US$20.
I don't know if you do it over there, but if you notice, they also have the calories for each item, too.
Australian $30 today is $19.45 USD. The exchange rate today is about the same as it was when this video was made in March 2020.
@@frankie3041
You're 100% correct 👍, I goofed 😞 and got it the wrong way round - fixing it now 😎
That would cost more than $30AU
