As a McDonald's employee, I can say that some of the things talked about in this video aren't true... at least not in my store. We do clean our machines at regular intervals as prescribed by corporate procedures. The chopped onions we use are dehydrated to extend their shelf life. We soak them in water when we are ready to use them. When it comes to regular burger meat, we do pull them off the grill when they're not fully cooked. The reason for that is to keep them fresh while they're in the holding cabinet. What people don't know is that the holding cabinet is hot enough to finish the cooking while they sit in the tray. That ensures the meat will stay fresh for the time it sits (15 minutes) in the cabinet. As for our ketchup dispenser, it's taken to the sink and washed out every night after close. As for our pies, they're tossed out when their hold time is up. Pies have a 4 hour hold time after they're taken out of the oven. When it comes to coffee, it is true the most of it is sold during the day time. At night, hot coffee sales are at a minimum because we sell more iced coffee than hot coffee after breakfast. That tends to change as the weather gets colder. Should you want a fresh coffee at night, just ask and we'll brew a fresh pot of coffee for you. Just be aware that it's going to be a couple of minutes while it brews.
Hi the problem is the people never specify the country, state or whether they live in, so how heavily McDonald are regulated changes in different places, so I have no idea if any of these apply to restaurants in my country or not.
OMG...where to begin, I works at McDonald's for years..for starters, the smoothie machine is ALWAYS cleaned after every drink so people don't get smoothie in their coffee drink, 2nd, they use red, white and dehydrated onions, 3rd, we ALWAYS took apart the lobby drink station every night, 4th you're more likely to get a raw quarter patty then the small patties especially when they did the 1/3lb burgers, 5th, the apple pies don't sit on a shelf all day, they are baked and placed in a warming oven for 4 hours at a time and finally yes, there are some employees that will reset the timers on food BUT most will toss the food because of the many managers watching to see if everything is done correctly...most stores aren't as dirty as people think
I remember attempting to clean most of everything on my night shift but between the manager doing other stuff and customers coming through one at a time or back to back,its kinda difficult to have the dirty products and cleaning solutions out in the open or "out of service" so the customer doesn't get upset that im touching that stuff and their food, even after washing my hands (manager would filling something out or counting or something, not really looking to clean and me wanting the job to get done)
This sounds like individual worker negligence rather than corporate. If the machines are dirty than it’s up to the employees to clean them...they aren’t doing their jobs properly.
@@thecornofmyfloor1528 McDs has a "secret" corporate policy, at least in Toronto, Canada of Compassion for the Homeless. They don't have locks on their washrooms, so anyone can use them without a key or code, unlike Starbucks which needs an entry code This allows Homeless humans needed access to sanitation, as well as temporary shelter that is crucial in winter.
You do realize that it’s not up to the employee’s decision to clean out the machines right? Even if the employees does know how to, they would have to go talk to one of the managers on floor AND the restaurant manager if present at the back. The reason why is because once it’s rush hour, it’s hard for employee to leave (our soda machine is outside for both employees and customers) and get drinks for both Uber and Skipthedishes. This is just my location and what I’ve seen in other McDonald’s when I went to pick up some items.
I work at a McDonald’s right now and I can tell you almost everything in that video is a lie. The only correct thing that they stated in the video was that our onions are dehydrated. But if you wanted non dehydrated onions that you can just ask for slivered. Other than that I have cleaned almost every machine in the one year I have been working there and the machines that I don’t know how to clean I have watched my co-workers clean the machines. The only foods that is frozen is the food that we fry. Are meat patties are put in the fridge along with other products that need to be refrigerated. The food that we freeze is our fries, nuggets, fish filets, and our pies. And every fast food or restaurant has done that same with their food. If you ever want to make a video telling people the truth. Then I want you to work at a fast food restaurant and tell people how hard it is to be constantly yelled at because we are human and can mess up sometimes. But in the whole time I have been working I have never had a customer get bad food and get refused that correct order so we can make it right. The only time we will refuse service is if you are yelling and abusing us employees because of one tiny mistake that can be fixed.
The regular meat is frozen, its the quarter pounder patties that are fresh and kept in the fridge. Go in the freezer and youll see regular meat where you keep the fish, pork and hash browns assuming its the same as the store i worked at.
In and out burger does not use frozen French fries. They chop the potatoes 🥔 into fry peices right before putting them in the fryer. Source my husband worked there for almost 2 years
This video is mostly untrue and just scaremongering. Also McDonalds uses fresh and dehydrated onions. The onions on a quarter pounder are fresh. Shouldn’t get your info from reddit and claim it as fact. Unsubscribe for me.
The dehydrated onions aren't even bad to be honest, it's just a logistics thing really because it takes up half as much space, and they get prepared in the morning and sit for 2 hours to rehydrate (in the chiller). First video I watched from Babbletop n have to say, painting a bad picture for no reason.
No they are sitting in a bag in the walk in already cut up. They get slimy and still put on burgers. There’s just another stuff on the burgers that people don’t realize the slimy onions
These machines should be cleaned daily. No exceptions. I owned my own ice cream shop, and broke my ice cream machine down EVERY NIGHT, and totally cleaned it. Not doing so could make your customers very sick.
ukanduet Where is your ice cream shop located, I know there’s now a pandemic but it’s reassuring that you clean them every night and I may pay a visit if your close to my area.
Every time the McRib reappears, I have 15-20 of them while they're available. Never are they cold, tough or anything less than perfect. It is textured pork, and it is the same product it has always been, since it was introduced in 1981. I met the man who invented the McRib and toured his factory where they were made and can tell you first-hand, the quality of the product is outstanding.
“Even the staff won’t eat” we eat everything Alright let’s start w milkshakes Our store has a pressure washer right next to the smoothie/milkshake machine after every smoothie we pressure wash it. Every. Time. Onions: dehydrated onions are so much better and if you say otherwise you’re crazy. I get extra dehyd onions on my burgers errytime. Our burger patties are fine, they’re more pressed Bc we have a double sided flat grill that cooks the burger on both sides. If you wanted a real all American burger, would you really be at mcdonalds? Our ice is fresh every day. We get it delivered. It sits in a cooler in the back and we bring up buckets when we need to refill drink/smoothie drink. We clean our drank machines every week Bc the health inspector actually checks that shit an if you’re at a McDonald’s that doesn’t their health inspector is at fault. Our ketchup thing is kinda gross tho, we clean it at the end of the night but the top part is a bitch to clean. Same w mustard and Mayo. Our cookies be fresh, our pies be frozen, our cinnamon buns be frozen, but who tf cares, they’re cooked in an oven and it’s basically fresh when it comes out. Just ask us to make it fresh. Not that hard. Don’t .get .the. McRib. We have a 7 minute wait time on ALL our food. If it’s over 7 minutes since we made it, we toss it. everything. Our coffee is fine but we truly don’t have decaf. We can give you a shit ton of creamer, but we don’t have decaf. That video of the guy making and sliding a burger is accurate. Again. 7 minute wait. We toss. We do make fresh fries for a no salt order. No questions asked. But yeah just ask us to make it fresh. If you can wait 20 minutes at a fancy restaurant you can wait in our parking lot for 8 minutes. I will answer any questions if anyone asks/cares
Pre cooked sandwiches are usually on a timer, ours at hardee's were. Nuttin new. Now go into a convenient store.....now that's some old dried out sheeeeet
Are YOU A MANAGER? WHAT CITY AND STATE IS YOUR STORE AT? AND IF YOU ARE A MANAGER , DO YOU THINK OTS FAIR FOR WHAT YOUR BOSS PAYS YOU AND THE EMPLOYEES UNDER YOU?
Kubz I work at McDonald’s we clean all our machines nightly, the paddy is cooked automatically, and the apple pies have a 2 hour timer before there not and they only go a little bit dry there still good to eat and we only cook 8 at a time
I worked at a buffet place when I was a teenager, and after about 2 weeks working there and seeing how they prepared the food, I wouldn't eat the free meal I was entitled to every day. The worst was watching a guy mixing up a huge vat of stuffing with his hairy arms, no gloves, nothing.
I did most jobs in McDonalds (except management) most of this video is crap. I worked in central MA. the ice cream machine was cleaned every 3 days. the grease was changed weekly. and the whole store was cleaned daily. all the burger meat are cooked the same way. Generally if employees did do what they were suppose to the other employees had to pick up the slack. its McDonalds people lower your standards
My McDonald’s clean everything each day we through our food that’s sit out for more than 30minutes due to health hazard we have people buying apple pie everyday do no problem with that
Sky :3 sorry to hear that . I was assistant manager in nyc back in the days for 3 locations my stores had stick standards we had lot of spoilage and ton of cleaning Thur out the day. The owner was no joke with food safety I learned a lot from him and his family
(I work at McDonalds and i have for about a year now so ik just about everything that goes on) 1. Yes, we do cook the meat about 80% through, thats only to save time, but the cabinet we keep them in is basically a big oven that will complete the cooking process(proven by the fact i burn my fingers on a daily basis while pulling a tray out), and we usually keep about 3 trays in a cabinet at a time and only take from the one which the meat is cooked completely (the cabinet has timers that keep track of how long the meats been there and thrown out usually after an hour) and in the case of a lunch rush and we run out of prepared meat, we will usually just press the patties down for a moment or two (theyre not very thick so they cook pretty fast) 2. The pies all have timed stickers that correspond with when they were baked\boxed and are thrown out usually after about 3-4 hours(i know this personally bc i usually take the "expired" pies as a snack when i go on break or clock out) 3. The condoment dispensers are cleaned every night after closing (i would know, i hate doing it)
The soda fountain thing happens on ANY soda dispenser that is frequently used. I had to clean the ones at my previous job every single night. Our small restuarant only had like 100-200 max customers. The ketchup thing was a problem, but the biggest bag they had was always gone in 2 days. Our burgers didnt come with ketchup though.... we had one on every table that would get refilled at put back in the fridge between rushes and days. Slow times, we'd grab one out with the food. I doubt the ketchup sat for THAT long before theyd have to change the bag... but the dispenser not getting cleaned is gross, for sure.
The one thing I would say to look out for is the filet o fish during March(Lent) , they do tend to pre make those in Anticipation of selling a shit Ton and sometimes they end up getting a little soggy and also kind of crumbly. Plus the tartar sauce starts to kind of dry up /absorbed by the bread.
That is nasty. Instead of throwing food away, why can't you just give it to customers. Like the fried apple pies. You know there is some just sitting there. Try putting a free pie on the last orders of the day. There are homeless and hungry people that would love to have something to eat.
Very true. I can’t have more than a little caffeine for serious medical reasons. But I like the taste of coffee. I can only make it at home, since I can’t be sure what I’m getting out somewhere. I used to work at Starbucks and my coworkers would make fun of decaf orders and just hand out regular, even to elderly and pregnant people. I already had my problem, but they made fun of me when I said something. Looking back, I should have made fun of them for only liking coffee for the caffeine instead of the flavor.
Viktyr Gehrig I agree. They could have killed someone. I left that Starbucks as quickly as possible and left reviews on Google and Yelp to warn people. My manager was terrible and didn’t care.
My parents owned 4 McDonald's restaurants at one time. I worked at a McDonald's restaurant in south Dakota and we'd sell out of the mcrib...you people have no idea what you're talking about
We need to remember that/ you can’t trust stuff people say, especially on UA-cam ……………. Just take it with a grain of salt. Regardless of the lies they tell; people will still continue eating maccas. So they are wasting their time. They obviously have an agenda…………….
the mcdonald's restaurants I've been to always make me wait when i order an apple pie cuz they are made to order so they don't sit all day. That's how they do the hashbrowns too. you wait an extra few minutes cuz they only make them to order too.
@@JAS0N_M00RE every single item on our menu is premade and frozen. Certain items like stuff on top of burgers. So lettuce, onions, tomatoes, things like that are fresh
Hmmm, back in the day when I was in food service we had list of things we had to clean at the end of our shift. Regardless of how long or short the shift was. It’s called having a good manager who cares, teaches and does the work too.
@@hodanahmed731 I was a shift manger, a closer and an opener. We all worked together to keep the store clean. Everyone has to do their part. And when I came in the morning and closers did their job, much less stress on prep for the day. Keep up the cleaning, day shifts do it too. Looking back it was an invaluable life lesson regarding team work. Having a manager who worked right there with everyone and who cared about her employees and the store.
When I worked at McDonald's, the shake machine was gross. Too many times roaches would be floating in the mix and only some of time was it thrown out. Most of the time, they were just fished out. That was a while ago, don't know what it's like now.
Mcd's from the US is... Anyways, all those problems are near non existent in Germany Smoothie machine: Has a Daily Clean, one Weekly at Sunday's and one Monthly Shake/Sundae is cleaned both, once a week + 2 full cleanses per month ( First monday and last monday in our stores ) The Meat is fully cooked and has a Shelf time of 15mins, passed thos 15mins we throw them away, we produce OFTEN and ENOUGH to get the orders out Not all burgers have dehydrated onions, specially not the expensive ones, they get fresh ones/red ones for the Signatures
Can you say anything about the MCRib meat? Does it really look that disgusting? I extremly like the mcrib but last time i ate one, it tasted like more fat then meat
@@Singurarity88 McRib Meat just looks like normal pork Meat would look or a normal Spare Rib before you put sauce on it. In my restaurant (in Germany) everything is always clean and its very clean this video is true non sense in my opinion, because only because one restaurant lets their Apple Pies sit for too long you shouldn't order them ?! I always do fresh Apple Pies for the guests
@@Singurarity88 McDs is good value on their Value menu, and you can sub red onions if you ask even, But ask yourself why McRib had so much bbq sauce you can hardly taste the meat?
OMG I laughed so hard when at the begining the guy said: "I DRINK YOUR... MILKSHAKE" OMG. I thought he was going to say something more brutal but that's just me.😂
I love watching these McDonald’s ones because I used to work for a corporate McDonald’s restaurant and it’s sometimes hard to believe how gross some restaurants can get, we had corporate in a lot to make sure we were keeping up
1050Ti Kemal also it’s not really dirty. People just have stigma about McDonald’s. Which is shitty. But if you want to know about everything and anything that goes on your plate eat at home every time and always pack your lunch. End of story.
Also as a McDonalds employee all of the food is frozen to keep it fresh at least at my store and the smoothie machine is cleaned every day and same with the icecream machine
This is probably the most in accurate information that I have ever seen on UA-cam, every McDonald’s and every restaurant is inspected by the health department ice machines must be clean nozzles for soda or check for cleanliness, none of this is true. The story about the Mc rib is absolutely ridiculous, when McDonald’s puts the Mc rib out it drives the price of pork up quickly on the market because they take so much of it and it sells so quickly, when the price drives up McDonald’s cuts off the sale
Health department inspections only happen a few times a year in many areas. There are many restaurants and very few inspectors. Don't kid yourself. I'm a former restaurant owner and have managed many restaurants in my career.
Susan Keith Unless you were management at a large chain, you would not understand, internally they have health inspections, the health aspect inspection from the counties are random and can occur anytime during the year, most large chains for the HACCP rules and they are testing the temperature on products 15 times a day, cleaning is super efficient and unlike a small restaurant or single user
@@genegoycochea4846 I have worked for national companies too. My point is, noncompliance is extremely common, whether intentional or not. I am retired from food and hospitality industry.
Me too I don't need that restaurants I don't eat McDonald's fast food none of that the only thing I'll grab from McDonald's is a salad the pie or the drinks
Sounds like poor training and inadequate supervision. I do not like McDonald's. If your desperate and there's no where else to go. Guess it's okay. As for me I'll wait McDonald's might to better with a quality control employee on board
BabbleTop Maybe it’s a national company with national standards and regional managers that make sure every store branch is doing a proper job and your video is totally untrue.
Not only has to do with the health inspector to set the bar but also has to come from the General manager of the store and the work ethic of the employees
It all depends on the location and the employees. In my area I know which McDonald's to go to and which ones to avoid. Actually, the stuff in this video seem pretty tame to me. I'm more concerned with employees spitting sneezing coughing in food or returning from the bathroom without washing their hands and other even worse unmentionable things.
@stolenelection this is very true. But if I do eat a burger out it most certainly won’t be McDonald’s. I probably would choose in and out burger or habit burgers
Because she is telling the truth i have celiac disease so I’m glad dont eat at McDonald’s they have been caught using human meat, well our government and the fraud queen are all we’re cannibals
We joke about it being broken everyday. Most of the time we debate to say it's broken or not, only as a joke though. Only time I've ever said it was broken is when it's actually broken
Hardly anyone orders the McRib? That's when I knew this video was crap, like most of the one's in this series. Nice hit job.. but I'm still eating at McDonalds.
i liked the mcrib, but have not had one in a few years, because i never know when they have it....i use to drive truck, transported swift pork to mcdonalds , they used real meat
Be careful eating at any and all restaurants... and too many people are without food and on hard times, all restaurants in US need better systems of getting rid of food instead of throwing everything out
I work at a mc Donald's in the UK and the gigantic ketchup dispensers are changed every hour or so as we go through 10 litres every hour due to our sales and to meet the demands of the customers and it is cleaned every time we change it any McDonalds not doing so is not following procedures correctly and should have a staff check
This advice holds true for almost any restaurant: Go sometime during the standard meal times. You will usually get hot fries and freshly made burgers. Recently went to a local BBQ place at 2 PM and ordered the special, BBQ chicken. It was dry and tasteless. Lesson learned: Go between 11:45 and 12:45 when the chicken is freshly made.
Thanks for the feedback Drue Gillis! 😊😄 Check out our latest video. 👉10 SNEAKIEST Food Business Tactics You Never Noticed SCAMMING You!😋😃ua-cam.com/video/laYTv9wlu9s/v-deo.html
The McDonald's I worked at for awhile I would eat anything because it was always super clean and rarely did we have anything sit for more than 5 minutes (except fries and cookies during slow time). And almost everything was cleaned at least once a day. I think it depends on location and employees. And if you've had to wait for your food it usually ment it was being made fresh.
As a McDonald's grill manager myself, I can go ahead and tell you that the entry about the raw meat is false. We have food regulations that we have to follow very strictly to be able to serve you those delicious burgers, and personally I take great pride in that. The 10:1, or the smaller beef patties, cook under the grill for roughly 80 seconds, and by the time they're done they have to temp at least at 180°F or else we can't serve them. Yes, we will admit that sometimes they look a bit pinkish close to the middle, but as long as it temps correctly then you don't have to worry about any transferred diseases such as E. Coli etc. If your mcdonald's is selling you raw meat, I would highly suggest requesting to talk to the general manager on shift because that would mean that the grills themselves are in need of maintenance, and the workers in grill need to pay more attention and be more cautious about the meat they're putting on those burgers.
My first physical job was at McDonald’s I learned that the trays were not always clean they sometimes just wiped them down. Coffeee pots were not washed daily but occasionally our ketchup and mustard pump got washed when I was told to check and refill them. I was at only one location. I learned some things by working there and I still eat there even after watching and hunting about the foods that McDonald’s have. Brena
By the way, the only big fault I find, is that the coffee is always so hot that you can eat your meal before its cool enough to take a sip. I usually ask for a quarter cup of ice in the cup before the coffee is poured.
@@ibrazy8903 Where did you hear that from. If they actually used human meat in burgers, they would have to list is on the ingredients. Plus if that was true, they would be shut down ON THE SPOT. Plus how are they getting that human meat, murdering people, yeah, I don’t think so.
We had a peach smoothie the other day and it was great ! This video now makes me question if all the machines are never clean !! 😠 So smoothies at McDonald’s are disgusting 🤢?🤔🙄😠 So Does McDonald’s HQ know about this video going around?
Having worked at several fast food places and an all you can eat place. We cleaned the shake machine every night! ( Hardee's and Whataburger), also cleaned the frozen yogurt machine at Golden Coral every night.
when my friends visited usa, they told that they tried going to local mcdonald's but the whole restaurant was do disgusting that they abandoned the idea.
I'm pretty sure this is fake because two of my sisters used to work at McDonald and they didn't say anything to my family and I about these things, so this is probably fake
I worked at McDonald's years ago. The buckets for the ice basically just sat on the floor next to the ice machine, never cleaned. I was a dishwasher, and apparently I was the only one who actually washed the dishes correctly, because when the soap water got gross, I would drain, squirt the sink out and refill and get yelled at for it because it was too time consuming. I scrubbed ever item totally clean, right down to taking blender pieces apart and cleaning them. Would also get shit because I was "too slow" One day one of the veterans who have been there for a while stepped in to "show me how it should be done" . All he did was take the dishes out of the gross, greasy and at that point soapless water, then squirt everything down without washing. I still did it my way. It's not right to do that. I thought about what if my family or friends or kids, anyone ate from that stuff. Soda machines were rarely cleaned. My job was to also clean dining room. I was yelled at for disinfecting everything including the seats. (Too time consuming) . All I can say was nobody messed with the food or did anything bad at my store. On breaks, the managers and crew would smoke weed out back on breaks and be high as the sky while working. Also got yelled at for wiping down door handles. "It wasn't necessary" 😒
Wow I would have done the same. Thank you for doing your job at McDonalds exceptionally well👏 Need more people that go above and beyond at their jobs especially working in fast food. I have been there too.
@@comecorrect1 Indeed. I have a touch of legitimate ocd that I take medicine for, but if you need to do something why not do it thoroughly? My thought process was always would I want my family or friends to come in and eat something that was on this if it was "cleaned" the way they wanted? Hell no. Even just a fast food job, especially do that right because people can really get sick if you half ass things. Some people just have no respect I guess 🤷🏼♂️
I had a friend in my scout troop in late 70's and his dad owned local McDonald's. He donated McMuffins for all our 50 mile hikes and canoe trips as our bread source because he n said they'd last indefinitely. My favorite breakfast item is still egg and sausage McMuffin. 😁👍
I was a cook in the US Army for several years, and when I got out, I struggled to find work anywhere, but I got hired on the spot by the store manager at a MD, who had never hired anyone "on the spot" in his 50+ years as a MD manager. He put me in the position of kitchen manager, and put me to work that very same day to inspect the place to find out what problems the store had. Apparently, he had been brought in from another location as the last store manager was fired for allowing the restaurant and staff to become complacent in filth, and the Health Department giving it a D grade and 2 weeks until its next inspection, to which it would be closed if things didnt improve. Within 3 hours, I had written up more violations than even the California Health Inspector did. I spoke with the store manager, and we had a conference with the owner and all employees the next day, a Saturday which I instructed we should remain closed for the whole weekend and following week to clean, reorganize and receive and install new equipment, along with me introducing new policies. I told all the staff, "I was a captain in the Army, and I expect the same level of respect and obedience from you as i expected from every soldier under my command. I know you are not soldiers, so I will not treat you like soldiers, unless your inability or refusal to conform to my standards and obey my instructions forces me to treat you like soldiers. Neglect these responsibilities, on each offense, you will be written up, and I will take you downstairs to the break room and smoke you like a recruit late to formation. That means rigorous physical exercise: Pushups, situps, side-straddle hop, etc. You will also be reassigned to R & U detail for a week. That's Repairs and Upkeep duty. I'm an equal opportunity disciplinarian. I dont care about your gender, race, religion, age, height or weight or anything else. Failure to keep this restaurant in prime condition will mean two things, both of which I am not in control of at this moment, but the Health Department is: This restaurant will be closed down, and every last one of you will lose your jobs. I will implement procedures and tactics that made 2nd Brigade Dining Facility the most desirable and most awarded eating establishment, at not only Schofield Barracks, but out of every single military dining facility in the state of Hawaii. If you do your job right, we will get along. If you're a slacker and think being a sham-master is gonna get you through the day, I will make certain that PT is the easiest part of your day, and you will never get off R & U detail. If you dont like doing the kind of work that makes a restaurant truly great, and being part of the team that makes it great, you can quit. You can get up from your seat right now, hand in your nametags, and give up like the sore loser that you are. If you stay, you will work harder than you ever have before, but you'll be able to go home at the end of a long day with that $80 you just earned, and say to your families, 'I made an effing difference in the world today! I may not have shot up any terrorists, but I sure as hell made and served some damn good hamburgers that were good enough to feed to the President of these United effing States of America!' You will cook and serve to every customer that enters herein, as if he were the President. There is no difference between him and any regular Joe-Blow or Jane-Swallows that comes in from off the street. Courteous service, a clean restaurant and unforgettably excellent food are the new marks of this restaurant. The name outside may be 'McDonald's', but the names inside are the names of each highly motivated and hardworking member of this team. Being 'Fast Food' doesnt mean 'Sloppy, Shitty Garbage'. You will give your best, because I know you can." We hired a night crew to come in and deep clean every piece of equipment from the floors to the refrigerators to the grill, deep fat friers, the ketchup dispensers, inside and out of the soda machines and tubings, coffee machines, milkshake machines, and everything else. I required all employees to wear hair nets, men wore beard nets even if they didnt have beards, gloves at all times, required hand washing every 15 minutes, made-to-order meat and sandwiches, got new and proper equipment, new procedures on how to assemble the sandwiches, and instructed every employee, new and old how to properly stock, cook, assemble, take orders and clean the place. We also increased the amount of time on the clamshells so the meat would be cooked better on both the 1/10th lb and 1/4 lb meats. By the 2nd week when we had the Health Inspector arrived and tested us, we passed with a high A with 98% above average. The lost 2 points had something to do with bookkeeping, which I was not responsible for. It became very popular there and we were constantly flooded with customers all day. I took the morning shifts so I could do breakfast and stocking as I was stronger, thus faster than everyone else on the morning shift as they were all females. Gina (the mega bitch) managed the front. She would try to undermine me all the time, but I would fearlessly challenge her back. I always won. Then she got in a fist fight with a customer, a woman who was easily 6 ft tall and +300 lbs. Gina barely crossed 5' 3" and 110 lbs. I still got this behemoth off of her and suplexed her on the floor and kept her subdued until the cops arrived. A trained soldier (especially a martial artist and shoot-wrestler like myself) can take down any foe. Gina never thanked me for saving her worthless life. I would have fired her if not for the fact that "our rank was equal" and she was close friends of the store manager. To this day, I will not eat at any McDonalds. I dont trust them to have the high quality standards that I implemented at mine.
I would try any eatery you managed, and if it was to my taste and value matrix, be a regular. You sound a bit over the top, but your sense of duty and justice is needed and valuable.
Where exactly did you work at McD's? Because nothing you mentioned seems to make any sense. Firstly, policies and procedures are decided on by McDonald's USA, not a kitchen manager. The Owner/Operator is trained to do everything the store manager does, and more. He/She must know their stores inside and out - and they're the one that supplies the store with all the equipment. Not a kitchen manager, not even the store manager. Secondly, If their store is failing, the regional office (McD Corporate) would be the first to know about it and that store would be shut down. They have a procedure called a 'Brand Standard Visitation' - A field consultant is sent out every 6 to 12 months, to make sure all procedures are adhered to, the restaurant is clean and sanitary (This means, spotless), and the customers are happy. Those that fail are given a second opportunity to pass, and those that fail again are subject to immediate remediation. I guess, what I'm trying to say is, a McDonald's store is not your garden variety restaurant where a new hire can just take over. There are corporate policies to adhere to. What's more, your story is full of off-topic embellishments, which leads me to believe that the situation wasn't nearly as dramatic as you claim.
With the exclusion of McDonald’s specialty (like the McRib) the information presented can be the same as any fast food place. I worked at Krystals (the southern White Castle) and the cleaning process is the same. So as the onions, replacing of food, and so on. One example is that it the oil (made to cook all fried food items) is changed every 2-3 days. If you black specks on your fries, that’s a clear indicator of oooooolllllllddddd grease. Even darker than golden brown shouldn’t be consumed since it already at it 2 day mark by then. At the restaurant that I worked at, we would even place patties in the grease to quickly heat them up if a grill was occupied or down or whatever. Bottom line and moral of the story: don’t eat fast food
Every time I go to my local McDonald’s, they are always out of warm apple pie. I end up waiting for them to make more. Which is fine with me, literally fresh out of the warmer. Yum 😋
Not true, everyone uses that machine like crazy and you have to clean it everyday. Shit takes like 30 minutes and that’s when everyone decides to order a smoothie, or a frappe 🤦🏽♀️
DUDE LEGIT. Why does everyone decide to order ice cream and frappes when we're cleaning both the damn machines? Then they get mad at us, like bitch you want crusty old frappe in yo frappe? Yeah didn't think so.
I work at Mcdonald's and that bit about not washing the machines or cleaning things in general is not true at all. We wash the machines very often, and wash all the dispensers and dishes daily. Although, I do work at a franchise so maybe we have different standards. We also never give customers something they didn't ask for. If they ask for decaf coffee and we don't have it made, we make a new pot. There are also cheat sheets above where we make the sandwiches, so we will never make the sandwich wrong.

I hate McDonald’s In my country they don’t have the mcrib
For the whole year they don't serve the McRib?
BabbleTop ye it didn’t even come out
enjoy
Clearly a vegan peta nut hugger made this video
As a McDonald's employee, I can say that some of the things talked about in this video aren't true... at least not in my store. We do clean our machines at regular intervals as prescribed by corporate procedures. The chopped onions we use are dehydrated to extend their shelf life. We soak them in water when we are ready to use them. When it comes to regular burger meat, we do pull them off the grill when they're not fully cooked. The reason for that is to keep them fresh while they're in the holding cabinet. What people don't know is that the holding cabinet is hot enough to finish the cooking while they sit in the tray. That ensures the meat will stay fresh for the time it sits (15 minutes) in the cabinet. As for our ketchup dispenser, it's taken to the sink and washed out every night after close. As for our pies, they're tossed out when their hold time is up. Pies have a 4 hour hold time after they're taken out of the oven. When it comes to coffee, it is true the most of it is sold during the day time. At night, hot coffee sales are at a minimum because we sell more iced coffee than hot coffee after breakfast. That tends to change as the weather gets colder. Should you want a fresh coffee at night, just ask and we'll brew a fresh pot of coffee for you. Just be aware that it's going to be a couple of minutes while it brews.
"Fresh" and frozen meat is contradictory.
It's case to case basis though, thanks for letting us know that you're not like the other stores we knew about.
Hi the problem is the people never specify the country, state or whether they live in, so how heavily McDonald are regulated changes in different places, so I have no idea if any of these apply to restaurants in my country or not.
Are you sure mc Donalds isnt keeping you at gun point?
GrnArrow092 thanks for letting us know all this!
OMG...where to begin, I works at McDonald's for years..for starters, the smoothie machine is ALWAYS cleaned after every drink so people don't get smoothie in their coffee drink, 2nd, they use red, white and dehydrated onions, 3rd, we ALWAYS took apart the lobby drink station every night, 4th you're more likely to get a raw quarter patty then the small patties especially when they did the 1/3lb burgers, 5th, the apple pies don't sit on a shelf all day, they are baked and placed in a warming oven for 4 hours at a time and finally yes, there are some employees that will reset the timers on food BUT most will toss the food because of the many managers watching to see if everything is done correctly...most stores aren't as dirty as people think
Sounds like you WORKS at McDonalds.
@@thefirstpancake9806 oh my
I remember attempting to clean most of everything on my night shift but between the manager doing other stuff and customers coming through one at a time or back to back,its kinda difficult to have the dirty products and cleaning solutions out in the open or "out of service" so the customer doesn't get upset that im touching that stuff and their food, even after washing my hands (manager would filling something out or counting or something, not really looking to clean and me wanting the job to get done)
I know because my mom used to work at McDonald's
Melissa. Dont listen to the haters. Go. McDonald's. You guys are great
This sounds like individual worker negligence rather than corporate. If the machines are dirty than it’s up to the employees to clean them...they aren’t doing their jobs properly.
Pondjumper1 I was thinking the same thing
Crappy franchisors, not worth risking your health because some rich dumbass could not run a clean restauraunt.
@@thecornofmyfloor1528 McDs has a "secret" corporate policy, at least in Toronto, Canada of Compassion for the Homeless.
They don't have locks on their washrooms, so anyone can use them without a key or code, unlike Starbucks which needs an entry code
This allows Homeless humans needed access to sanitation, as well as temporary shelter that is crucial in winter.
Ra
You do realize that it’s not up to the employee’s decision to clean out the machines right? Even if the employees does know how to, they would have to go talk to one of the managers on floor AND the restaurant manager if present at the back. The reason why is because once it’s rush hour, it’s hard for employee to leave (our soda machine is outside for both employees and customers) and get drinks for both Uber and Skipthedishes. This is just my location and what I’ve seen in other McDonald’s when I went to pick up some items.
I work at a McDonald’s right now and I can tell you almost everything in that video is a lie. The only correct thing that they stated in the video was that our onions are dehydrated. But if you wanted non dehydrated onions that you can just ask for slivered. Other than that I have cleaned almost every machine in the one year I have been working there and the machines that I don’t know how to clean I have watched my co-workers clean the machines. The only foods that is frozen is the food that we fry. Are meat patties are put in the fridge along with other products that need to be refrigerated. The food that we freeze is our fries, nuggets, fish filets, and our pies. And every fast food or restaurant has done that same with their food. If you ever want to make a video telling people the truth. Then I want you to work at a fast food restaurant and tell people how hard it is to be constantly yelled at because we are human and can mess up sometimes. But in the whole time I have been working I have never had a customer get bad food and get refused that correct order so we can make it right. The only time we will refuse service is if you are yelling and abusing us employees because of one tiny mistake that can be fixed.
The regular meat is frozen, its the quarter pounder patties that are fresh and kept in the fridge. Go in the freezer and youll see regular meat where you keep the fish, pork and hash browns assuming its the same as the store i worked at.
In and out burger does not use frozen French fries. They chop the potatoes 🥔 into fry peices right before putting them in the fryer. Source my husband worked there for almost 2 years
This video is mostly untrue and just scaremongering. Also McDonalds uses fresh and dehydrated onions. The onions on a quarter pounder are fresh.
Shouldn’t get your info from reddit and claim it as fact.
Unsubscribe for me.
They loved that information.
The dehydrated onions aren't even bad to be honest, it's just a logistics thing really because it takes up half as much space, and they get prepared in the morning and sit for 2 hours to rehydrate (in the chiller). First video I watched from Babbletop n have to say, painting a bad picture for no reason.
Agreed
No they are sitting in a bag in the walk in already cut up. They get slimy and still put on burgers. There’s just another stuff on the burgers that people don’t realize the slimy onions
dude, you got a heart, don’t you feel bad?
We dont run out of Decaf, we just have to make a fresh pot if it's asked for at the McDonald's I work at
We clean our smoothie and milkshake machines quite regularly
These machines should be cleaned daily. No exceptions. I owned my own ice cream shop, and broke my ice cream machine down EVERY NIGHT, and totally cleaned it. Not doing so could make your customers very sick.
ukanduet Where is your ice cream shop located, I know there’s now a pandemic but it’s reassuring that you clean them every night and I may pay a visit if your close to my area.
I love dehydrated onions. No cutting up, no rot/loss. Great flavor
Every time the McRib reappears, I have 15-20 of them while they're available. Never are they cold, tough or anything less than perfect. It is textured pork, and it is the same product it has always been, since it was introduced in 1981. I met the man who invented the McRib and toured his factory where they were made and can tell you first-hand, the quality of the product is outstanding.
I haven't been to a fast food restaurant in years so I'm someway proud
Best comment! Fast food is toxic crap! You're probably a great cook.
Same here 🙋
Neither have I, because of these things and worse.
I’m addicted to fast food lol. (please help me)
I’ve worked in a ton of different restaurants, even nice ones, and believe me... none of them clean enough. Whatever, I still ate the food. 🤷🏻♀️
dammmm
Hannah Whitney, my kitchen is not clean enough either, so what 'cha gonna do? If you lived in a sterile environment, you would have no immune system.
VannieLou Marshall m
“Even the staff won’t eat” we eat everything
Alright let’s start w milkshakes
Our store has a pressure washer right next to the smoothie/milkshake machine after every smoothie we pressure wash it. Every. Time.
Onions: dehydrated onions are so much better and if you say otherwise you’re crazy. I get extra dehyd onions on my burgers errytime.
Our burger patties are fine, they’re more pressed Bc we have a double sided flat grill that cooks the burger on both sides. If you wanted a real all American burger, would you really be at mcdonalds?
Our ice is fresh every day. We get it delivered. It sits in a cooler in the back and we bring up buckets when we need to refill drink/smoothie drink.
We clean our drank machines every week Bc the health inspector actually checks that shit an if you’re at a McDonald’s that doesn’t their health inspector is at fault.
Our ketchup thing is kinda gross tho, we clean it at the end of the night but the top part is a bitch to clean. Same w mustard and Mayo.
Our cookies be fresh, our pies be frozen, our cinnamon buns be frozen, but who tf cares, they’re cooked in an oven and it’s basically fresh when it comes out. Just ask us to make it fresh. Not that hard.
Don’t .get .the. McRib.
We have a 7 minute wait time on ALL our food. If it’s over 7 minutes since we made it, we toss it. everything.
Our coffee is fine but we truly don’t have decaf. We can give you a shit ton of creamer, but we don’t have decaf.
That video of the guy making and sliding a burger is accurate.
Again. 7 minute wait. We toss.
We do make fresh fries for a no salt order. No questions asked. But yeah just ask us to make it fresh. If you can wait 20 minutes at a fancy restaurant you can wait in our parking lot for 8 minutes.
I will answer any questions if anyone asks/cares
I actually believe you lol very thorough thsnk you
PERIOD! Not all restaurants are the same especially if their independently owned like my store is. This video is dumb
Pre cooked sandwiches are usually on a timer, ours at hardee's were. Nuttin new. Now go into a convenient store.....now that's some old dried out sheeeeet
Are YOU A MANAGER?
WHAT CITY AND STATE IS YOUR STORE AT?
AND IF YOU ARE A MANAGER , DO YOU THINK OTS FAIR FOR WHAT YOUR BOSS PAYS YOU AND THE EMPLOYEES UNDER YOU?
Please try again with correct grammar and spelling
This series of videos could be summed up by: "Claims from reditors, aka do not eat anything at McDonald's."
Claims from alleged reditors.
Kubz I work at McDonald’s we clean all our machines nightly, the paddy is cooked automatically, and the apple pies have a 2 hour timer before there not and they only go a little bit dry there still good to eat and we only cook 8 at a time
I worked at a buffet place when I was a teenager, and after about 2 weeks working there and seeing how they prepared the food, I wouldn't eat the free meal I was entitled to every day. The worst was watching a guy mixing up a huge vat of stuffing with his hairy arms, no gloves, nothing.
sounds true
Poor you
Yum!
There’s starving kids in Africa, eat your hairy stuffing.
Wow this is why I don't eat ANY fast food at ALL. Please eat healthier 🙏 if you don't want high blood pressure
I did most jobs in McDonalds (except management) most of this video is crap. I worked in central MA. the ice cream machine was cleaned every 3 days. the grease was changed weekly. and the whole store was cleaned daily. all the burger meat are cooked the same way. Generally if employees did do what they were suppose to the other employees had to pick up the slack.
its McDonalds people lower your standards
Ikr all this from this video is crap
I do miss the old apple pies, I grew up on those and the chocolate ice cream sundaes😭
Oh my yes I don’t even buy the pies since they went baked! I can make the deep fry pie at home and it taste so good!
My McDonald’s clean everything each day we through our food that’s sit out for more than 30minutes due to health hazard we have people buying apple pie everyday do no problem with that
That's great to hear then!
I wouldn’t buy the the Apple pie not unless it first thing in the morning that when it freshened
Tony DNY I don’t blame you science my brother is the assistant manager I have a huge advantage to food due to me missing school due to all my headache
Sky :3 sorry to hear that . I was assistant manager in nyc back in the days for 3 locations my stores had stick standards we had lot of spoilage and ton of cleaning Thur out the day. The owner was no joke with food safety I learned a lot from him and his family
Tony DNY your boss seems hard on you but I’m happy there cleaning standards was high and it’s good you learned from him
(I work at McDonalds and i have for about a year now so ik just about everything that goes on)
1. Yes, we do cook the meat about 80% through, thats only to save time, but the cabinet we keep them in is basically a big oven that will complete the cooking process(proven by the fact i burn my fingers on a daily basis while pulling a tray out), and we usually keep about 3 trays in a cabinet at a time and only take from the one which the meat is cooked completely (the cabinet has timers that keep track of how long the meats been there and thrown out usually after an hour) and in the case of a lunch rush and we run out of prepared meat, we will usually just press the patties down for a moment or two (theyre not very thick so they cook pretty fast)
2. The pies all have timed stickers that correspond with when they were baked\boxed and are thrown out usually after about 3-4 hours(i know this personally bc i usually take the "expired" pies as a snack when i go on break or clock out)
3. The condoment dispensers are cleaned every night after closing (i would know, i hate doing it)
The soda fountain thing happens on ANY soda dispenser that is frequently used. I had to clean the ones at my previous job every single night. Our small restuarant only had like 100-200 max customers. The ketchup thing was a problem, but the biggest bag they had was always gone in 2 days. Our burgers didnt come with ketchup though.... we had one on every table that would get refilled at put back in the fridge between rushes and days. Slow times, we'd grab one out with the food.
I doubt the ketchup sat for THAT long before theyd have to change the bag... but the dispenser not getting cleaned is gross, for sure.
The one thing I would say to look out for is the filet o fish during March(Lent) , they do tend to pre make those in Anticipation of selling a shit Ton and sometimes they end up getting a little soggy and also kind of crumbly. Plus the tartar sauce starts to kind of dry up /absorbed by the bread.
Fish Fillet is only good when it's freshly cooked/fried lol 😋
That is nasty. Instead of throwing food away, why can't you just give it to customers. Like the fried apple pies. You know there is some just sitting there. Try putting a free pie on the last orders of the day. There are homeless and hungry people that would love to have something to eat.
I work at McDonald’s and everything is cleaned when I say everything I mean everything
Not like that in every location everywhere.
Same at our store.. clean all the time and our burgers are cooked throughly...
with glass cleaner?
No it's not clean in all McDonald's corporate is the worst.. we didn't clean anything with glass cleaner but doors and mirrors...
Me true we clean like crazy it's clean and sanitary
giving regular coffee to a person who medically can only have decaf is dangerous and negligent.
ok
Burger King does the same but they put less coffee and put hot water to fill up the cup.
Very true. I can’t have more than a little caffeine for serious medical reasons. But I like the taste of coffee. I can only make it at home, since I can’t be sure what I’m getting out somewhere. I used to work at Starbucks and my coworkers would make fun of decaf orders and just hand out regular, even to elderly and pregnant people. I already had my problem, but they made fun of me when I said something. Looking back, I should have made fun of them for only liking coffee for the caffeine instead of the flavor.
Viktyr Gehrig I agree. They could have killed someone. I left that Starbucks as quickly as possible and left reviews on Google and Yelp to warn people. My manager was terrible and didn’t care.
McDonalds knows that which is why they don't do what this person in the video said they do as they could ultimately kill somebody
My parents owned 4 McDonald's restaurants at one time. I worked at a McDonald's restaurant in south Dakota and we'd sell out of the mcrib...you people have no idea what you're talking about
Sorry about that Andrew James. 🙏 We'll do better next time! 😊

I request EXTRA when I can...!!!! Yumm!!!
sadly many of these really depend on the management too, the biggest downside to franchising
Indeed!
And corporate is a bitch in cleaning so yeah shit is clean
the mcdonald's restaurants I've been to always make me wait when i order an apple pie cuz they are made to order so they don't sit all day. That's how they do the hashbrowns too. you wait an extra few minutes cuz they only make them to order too.

Isnt Hashbrowns premade and they just deepfry it
@@JAS0N_M00RE every single item on our menu is premade and frozen. Certain items like stuff on top of burgers. So lettuce, onions, tomatoes, things like that are fresh
@@colbywarren4364 that's what I thought when he said made to order made me think he thought they made them their at the restaurant
Hmmm, back in the day when I was in food service we had list of things we had to clean at the end of our shift. Regardless of how long or short the shift was. It’s called having a good manager who cares, teaches and does the work too.
Right I’m a closer and we be cleaning everything before we leave
@@hodanahmed731 I was a shift manger, a closer and an opener. We all worked together to keep the store clean. Everyone has to do their part.
And when I came in the morning and closers did their job, much less stress on prep for the day. Keep up the cleaning, day shifts do it too. Looking back it was an invaluable life lesson regarding team work. Having a manager who worked right there with everyone and who cared about her employees and the store.
When I worked at McDonald's, the shake machine was gross. Too many times roaches would be floating in the mix and only some of time was it thrown out. Most of the time, they were just fished out. That was a while ago, don't know what it's like now.
I always ask for fries with no salt because I don’t like added salt on any of my food period
🍟 Ok. Did you like the video KONTROLLED KHAOS? 😃
@@BabbleTop Wtf answer his question
We do the same no salt on the fries sometimes they get mad
Mcd's from the US is...
Anyways, all those problems are near non existent in Germany
Smoothie machine: Has a Daily Clean, one Weekly at Sunday's and one Monthly
Shake/Sundae is cleaned both, once a week + 2 full cleanses per month ( First monday and last monday in our stores )
The Meat is fully cooked and has a Shelf time of 15mins, passed thos 15mins we throw them away, we produce OFTEN and ENOUGH to get the orders out
Not all burgers have dehydrated onions, specially not the expensive ones, they get fresh ones/red ones for the Signatures
Can you say anything about the MCRib meat? Does it really look that disgusting? I extremly like the mcrib but last time i ate one, it tasted like more fat then meat
u cant compare Germany to Usa xD there its actial work done
@@Singurarity88 McRib Meat just looks like normal pork Meat would look or a normal Spare Rib before you put sauce on it. In my restaurant (in Germany) everything is always clean and its very clean this video is true non sense in my opinion, because only because one restaurant lets their Apple Pies sit for too long you shouldn't order them ?! I always do fresh Apple Pies for the guests
German food safety standards are impressive
@@Singurarity88 McDs is good value on their Value menu, and you can sub red onions if you ask even, But ask yourself why McRib had so much bbq sauce you can hardly taste the meat?

I love watching these McDonald’s ones because I used to work for a corporate McDonald’s restaurant and it’s sometimes hard to believe how gross some restaurants can get, we had corporate in a lot to make sure we were keeping up
Tbh, idc if the Machines are dirty, at least it tastes good u know? ..
Oh im the only one who thinks that?
Lol.
So you don't mind if its clean or not so long as its delicious?
@@BabbleTop well I ate McDonald's for 10 years and I'm not dead so...
True 😂
KAJO that’s nasty. But then again so are they. Who eats poop 💩? They were hot too so I don’t get it.
1050Ti Kemal also it’s not really dirty. People just have stigma about McDonald’s. Which is shitty. But if you want to know about everything and anything that goes on your plate eat at home every time and always pack your lunch. End of story.
Also as a McDonalds employee all of the food is frozen to keep it fresh at least at my store and the smoothie machine is cleaned every day and same with the icecream machine
This is probably the most in accurate information that I have ever seen on UA-cam, every McDonald’s and every restaurant is inspected by the health department ice machines must be clean nozzles for soda or check for cleanliness, none of this is true. The story about the Mc rib is absolutely ridiculous, when McDonald’s puts the Mc rib out it drives the price of pork up quickly on the market because they take so much of it and it sells so quickly, when the price drives up McDonald’s cuts off the sale
Wrong. Go fuck yourself.
Health department inspections only happen a few times a year in many areas. There are many restaurants and very few inspectors. Don't kid yourself. I'm a former restaurant owner and have managed many restaurants in my career.
Susan Keith Unless you were management at a large chain, you would not understand, internally they have health inspections, the health aspect inspection from the counties are random and can occur anytime during the year, most large chains for the HACCP rules and they are testing the temperature on products 15 times a day, cleaning is super efficient and unlike a small restaurant or single user
@@genegoycochea4846 I have worked for national companies too. My point is, noncompliance is extremely common, whether intentional or not. I am retired from food and hospitality industry.
As a McDonald's employee I can say that within 24hrs of re-releasing the Mc rib we sold out so in my opinion the Mc rib story is complete bull.
I love the big mac and large fries and chocolate shake and I wont stop buy buying them
That is very cool
🤢🤮
I specifically ask for dehydrated onions instead of the larger fresh ones. Always been a preference of mine since I worked there many years ago.
Boy, talk about paranoid! Not going to worry about this and enjoy my shakes and McRibs without concern!
Randall Malcom yeah babble top is full of shit
Who even cares if it's dirty tbh? McDonald's is garbage and does more damage than some dirt/germs would do. I still eat it though lmfao
Dirt would be healthier than McDonald’s food

Maybe your store branch is doing a proper job! 😊
BabbleTop Maybe it’s a national company with national standards and regional managers that make sure every store branch is doing a proper job and your video is totally untrue.
Not only has to do with the health inspector to set the bar but also has to come from the General manager of the store and the work ethic of the employees
It all depends on the location and the employees. In my area I know which McDonald's to go to and which ones to avoid. Actually, the stuff in this video seem pretty tame to me. I'm more concerned with employees spitting sneezing coughing in food or returning from the bathroom without washing their hands and other even worse unmentionable things.
Thanks for the feedback Bill Smith! 😊😄 Did you like the video?
@stolenelection this is very true. But if I do eat a burger out it most certainly won’t be McDonald’s. I probably would choose in and out burger or habit burgers
Yep, that would be the only real worries for me too. But you can never be sure of that, even in the highest of high star restaurants.
I don’t know how you’re not getting sued for this video.
Answer; obviously it’s true.
Consumers don’t care. It’s hilarious how they ignore facts.
But I can order off a dollar menu..... 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Because she is telling the truth i have celiac disease so I’m glad dont eat at McDonald’s they have been caught using human meat, well our government and the fraud queen are all we’re cannibals
@@gailferraiolo1476 had no idea, that's just horrifying.
@@gailferraiolo1476 lol we don’t use human meat and I have noooo clue where you heard that 😂
Same here all they told was basically lies and they did no research they said throughout the video that they read it off of redit 😂
0:58 almost every time I order milkshake they say the machine is broken😂
Why is that?
Probably Cuz its broken
I feel ya
We joke about it being broken everyday. Most of the time we debate to say it's broken or not, only as a joke though. Only time I've ever said it was broken is when it's actually broken
Depends on the times you go. If its after 8pm, the machine is cleaning itself. If its before, the employees probably just dont wanna do it.
Hardly anyone orders the McRib? That's when I knew this video was crap, like most of the one's in this series. Nice hit job.. but I'm still eating at McDonalds.
Πόνος στο φόρο
i liked the mcrib, but have not had one in a few years, because i never know when they have it....i use to drive truck, transported swift pork to mcdonalds , they used real meat
Hope you don't get sick lol
McDonalds is shit, have fun eating garbage :)
Be careful eating at any and all restaurants... and too many people are without food and on hard times, all restaurants in US need better systems of getting rid of food instead of throwing everything out
I work at a mc Donald's in the UK and the gigantic ketchup dispensers are changed every hour or so as we go through 10 litres every hour due to our sales and to meet the demands of the customers and it is cleaned every time we change it any McDonalds not doing so is not following procedures correctly and should have a staff check
💂🇬🇧 Thanks for your feedback Josh None! 😄 What was your favorite part of the video!?!?
This advice holds true for almost any restaurant: Go sometime during the standard meal times. You will usually get hot fries and freshly made burgers. Recently went to a local BBQ place at 2 PM and ordered the special, BBQ chicken. It was dry and tasteless. Lesson learned: Go between 11:45 and 12:45 when the chicken is freshly made.

The McDonald's I worked at for awhile I would eat anything because it was always super clean and rarely did we have anything sit for more than 5 minutes (except fries and cookies during slow time). And almost everything was cleaned at least once a day. I think it depends on location and employees. And if you've had to wait for your food it usually ment it was being made fresh.
Me after this video: I'm never going to McDonald's agian
2 weeks later...
Me: *eates McDonald's*
Lol. 😄Can't resist it?? 😜
Yeah but I only eat the like French fries🍟 and the like wrap🌯 or burger 🍔
i like cookout more than mcdonalds lol
It’s really unhealthy try Wendy’s
This is so fake
Builds your immune system.
Lol
All that processed food may not impact you at the moment but it comes back in the future.
No it destroys your immune system and makes it weaker.
@@greenanimations923 please stop you sound like my parents lol
Yeah buddy
We all done ate that shit. It all depends on mgmt and employees. Goes for any company in the food industry.
This made me hungry. Going straight to McDonalds for lunch. Big Mac, fries and a chocolate shake.
As a McDonald's grill manager myself, I can go ahead and tell you that the entry about the raw meat is false. We have food regulations that we have to follow very strictly to be able to serve you those delicious burgers, and personally I take great pride in that. The 10:1, or the smaller beef patties, cook under the grill for roughly 80 seconds, and by the time they're done they have to temp at least at 180°F or else we can't serve them. Yes, we will admit that sometimes they look a bit pinkish close to the middle, but as long as it temps correctly then you don't have to worry about any transferred diseases such as E. Coli etc. If your mcdonald's is selling you raw meat, I would highly suggest requesting to talk to the general manager on shift because that would mean that the grills themselves are in need of maintenance, and the workers in grill need to pay more attention and be more cautious about the meat they're putting on those burgers.
I've had almost everything on the McDonald's menu
Cool! 😉😎Check this out: ua-cam.com/video/EdcaZqumv5k/v-deo.html

I’m pretty sure he did :D
So now we know why the icecream machine is always broken😂😂😂😂
My first physical job was at McDonald’s I learned that the trays were not always clean they sometimes just wiped them down. Coffeee pots were not washed daily but occasionally our ketchup and mustard pump got washed when I was told to check and refill them. I was at only one location. I learned some things by working there and I still eat there even after watching and hunting about the foods that McDonald’s have. Brena
By the way, the only big fault I find, is that the coffee is always so hot that you can eat your meal before its cool enough to take a sip. I usually ask for a quarter cup of ice in the cup before the coffee is poured.
Isn't coffee supposed to be hot? Not being a jerk or anything by my comment
The apple pie at my mcds always sell out lmao
OMG! I really want a big mac right now :0 think this video has had the opposite affect on me ... I haven't been put off ... It's just made me hungry !
Just want to let you know that you're eating human meat in those burgers. So.... you're a cannibal
@@ibrazy8903 stop believing everything
Lol that's my favorite burger from my childhood they just make them to small here wher I live now
@@ibrazy8903 Where did you hear that from. If they actually used human meat in burgers, they would have to list is on the ingredients. Plus if that was true, they would be shut down ON THE SPOT. Plus how are they getting that human meat, murdering people, yeah, I don’t think so.
The ice...please don't tell me they Randall Graves it from Clerks 2!! 😂😂😂😂
I haven't eaten at McDonalds since the "Hamburglar" Was A Mascot!...
Funny you assume I’ve never gone to a McDonald’s solely for an ice cream cone or a cookie tote bag
Smh I the one I worked at , we cleaned “ everything “ as part of closing
We had a peach smoothie the other day and it was great ! This video now makes me question if all the machines are never clean !! 😠
So smoothies at McDonald’s are disgusting 🤢?🤔🙄😠 So Does McDonald’s HQ know about this video going around?
Having worked at several fast food places and an all you can eat place. We cleaned the shake machine every night! ( Hardee's and Whataburger), also cleaned the frozen yogurt machine at Golden Coral every night.
Thanks for sharing this Stacey Vickery! 😊
when my friends visited usa, they told that they tried going to local mcdonald's but the whole restaurant was do disgusting that they abandoned the idea.
My favorite hak is the 1/4 pounder with cheese with rehydrated onions as they taste better to me and don't make you're breath stink
Alot of these sound avoidable if the employees weren't lazy AF and actually cleaned... 🤷♂️🤷♂️

Me:oh well will still eat McDonald is delicious
Here you go: 🍔
Did you like the video Mukona Ramovha? 😃
I'm pretty sure this is fake because two of my sisters used to work at McDonald and they didn't say anything to my family and I about these things, so this is probably fake
If I’m still hungry watching this video I’m going to go grab some McDonald’s big Mac and an apple pie
Food videos will do that to you! LOL 🍕🍩 What was your favorite entry!?!?
I worked at McDonald's years ago. The buckets for the ice basically just sat on the floor next to the ice machine, never cleaned. I was a dishwasher, and apparently I was the only one who actually washed the dishes correctly, because when the soap water got gross, I would drain, squirt the sink out and refill and get yelled at for it because it was too time consuming. I scrubbed ever item totally clean, right down to taking blender pieces apart and cleaning them. Would also get shit because I was "too slow" One day one of the veterans who have been there for a while stepped in to "show me how it should be done" . All he did was take the dishes out of the gross, greasy and at that point soapless water, then squirt everything down without washing. I still did it my way. It's not right to do that. I thought about what if my family or friends or kids, anyone ate from that stuff. Soda machines were rarely cleaned. My job was to also clean dining room. I was yelled at for disinfecting everything including the seats. (Too time consuming) . All I can say was nobody messed with the food or did anything bad at my store. On breaks, the managers and crew would smoke weed out back on breaks and be high as the sky while working. Also got yelled at for wiping down door handles. "It wasn't necessary" 😒

Wow I would have done the same. Thank you for doing your job at McDonalds exceptionally well👏 Need more people that go above and beyond at their jobs especially working in fast food. I have been there too.
@@comecorrect1 Indeed. I have a touch of legitimate ocd that I take medicine for, but if you need to do something why not do it thoroughly? My thought process was always would I want my family or friends to come in and eat something that was on this if it was "cleaned" the way they wanted? Hell no. Even just a fast food job, especially do that right because people can really get sick if you half ass things. Some people just have no respect I guess 🤷🏼♂️
Luckily I didn't have a McDonald's milkshake in my life
So where do you like to go out and eat Lee stapleton?! 😄😊
With regard to towel. Theres specific towel for every station. This video sucks.
looking at those pictures make me want to eat Mcdonald's now despite the warning 🤣⚠️
LOL! Did you enjoy this video TehHW? 😉😀
Those commercial burgers look nothing like the one I just ate... False advertisment
Coffee is also made on a consistent rotation
I had a friend in my scout troop in late 70's and his dad owned local McDonald's. He donated McMuffins for all our 50 mile hikes and canoe trips as our bread source because he n said they'd last indefinitely. My favorite breakfast item is still egg and sausage McMuffin. 😁👍
I always substitute the scrambled egg on mine
I was a cook in the US Army for several years, and when I got out, I struggled to find work anywhere, but I got hired on the spot by the store manager at a MD, who had never hired anyone "on the spot" in his 50+ years as a MD manager. He put me in the position of kitchen manager, and put me to work that very same day to inspect the place to find out what problems the store had. Apparently, he had been brought in from another location as the last store manager was fired for allowing the restaurant and staff to become complacent in filth, and the Health Department giving it a D grade and 2 weeks until its next inspection, to which it would be closed if things didnt improve. Within 3 hours, I had written up more violations than even the California Health Inspector did. I spoke with the store manager, and we had a conference with the owner and all employees the next day, a Saturday which I instructed we should remain closed for the whole weekend and following week to clean, reorganize and receive and install new equipment, along with me introducing new policies. I told all the staff, "I was a captain in the Army, and I expect the same level of respect and obedience from you as i expected from every soldier under my command. I know you are not soldiers, so I will not treat you like soldiers, unless your inability or refusal to conform to my standards and obey my instructions forces me to treat you like soldiers. Neglect these responsibilities, on each offense, you will be written up, and I will take you downstairs to the break room and smoke you like a recruit late to formation. That means rigorous physical exercise: Pushups, situps, side-straddle hop, etc. You will also be reassigned to R & U detail for a week. That's Repairs and Upkeep duty. I'm an equal opportunity disciplinarian. I dont care about your gender, race, religion, age, height or weight or anything else. Failure to keep this restaurant in prime condition will mean two things, both of which I am not in control of at this moment, but the Health Department is: This restaurant will be closed down, and every last one of you will lose your jobs. I will implement procedures and tactics that made 2nd Brigade Dining Facility the most desirable and most awarded eating establishment, at not only Schofield Barracks, but out of every single military dining facility in the state of Hawaii. If you do your job right, we will get along. If you're a slacker and think being a sham-master is gonna get you through the day, I will make certain that PT is the easiest part of your day, and you will never get off R & U detail. If you dont like doing the kind of work that makes a restaurant truly great, and being part of the team that makes it great, you can quit. You can get up from your seat right now, hand in your nametags, and give up like the sore loser that you are. If you stay, you will work harder than you ever have before, but you'll be able to go home at the end of a long day with that $80 you just earned, and say to your families, 'I made an effing difference in the world today! I may not have shot up any terrorists, but I sure as hell made and served some damn good hamburgers that were good enough to feed to the President of these United effing States of America!' You will cook and serve to every customer that enters herein, as if he were the President. There is no difference between him and any regular Joe-Blow or Jane-Swallows that comes in from off the street. Courteous service, a clean restaurant and unforgettably excellent food are the new marks of this restaurant. The name outside may be 'McDonald's', but the names inside are the names of each highly motivated and hardworking member of this team. Being 'Fast Food' doesnt mean 'Sloppy, Shitty Garbage'. You will give your best, because I know you can." We hired a night crew to come in and deep clean every piece of equipment from the floors to the refrigerators to the grill, deep fat friers, the ketchup dispensers, inside and out of the soda machines and tubings, coffee machines, milkshake machines, and everything else. I required all employees to wear hair nets, men wore beard nets even if they didnt have beards, gloves at all times, required hand washing every 15 minutes, made-to-order meat and sandwiches, got new and proper equipment, new procedures on how to assemble the sandwiches, and instructed every employee, new and old how to properly stock, cook, assemble, take orders and clean the place. We also increased the amount of time on the clamshells so the meat would be cooked better on both the 1/10th lb and 1/4 lb meats. By the 2nd week when we had the Health Inspector arrived and tested us, we passed with a high A with 98% above average. The lost 2 points had something to do with bookkeeping, which I was not responsible for. It became very popular there and we were constantly flooded with customers all day. I took the morning shifts so I could do breakfast and stocking as I was stronger, thus faster than everyone else on the morning shift as they were all females. Gina (the mega bitch) managed the front. She would try to undermine me all the time, but I would fearlessly challenge her back. I always won. Then she got in a fist fight with a customer, a woman who was easily 6 ft tall and +300 lbs. Gina barely crossed 5' 3" and 110 lbs. I still got this behemoth off of her and suplexed her on the floor and kept her subdued until the cops arrived. A trained soldier (especially a martial artist and shoot-wrestler like myself) can take down any foe. Gina never thanked me for saving her worthless life. I would have fired her if not for the fact that "our rank was equal" and she was close friends of the store manager. To this day, I will not eat at any McDonalds. I dont trust them to have the high quality standards that I implemented at mine.
I would try any eatery you managed, and if it was to my taste and value matrix, be a regular. You sound a bit over the top, but your sense of duty and justice is needed and valuable.
Holy big Mac, how long did it take this guy to type out his rant and rave
Where exactly did you work at McD's? Because nothing you mentioned seems to make any sense.
Firstly, policies and procedures are decided on by McDonald's USA, not a kitchen manager. The Owner/Operator is trained to do everything the store manager does, and more. He/She must know their stores inside and out - and they're the one that supplies the store with all the equipment. Not a kitchen manager, not even the store manager.
Secondly, If their store is failing, the regional office (McD Corporate) would be the first to know about it and that store would be shut down. They have a procedure called a 'Brand Standard Visitation' - A field consultant is sent out every 6 to 12 months, to make sure all procedures are adhered to, the restaurant is clean and sanitary (This means, spotless), and the customers are happy. Those that fail are given a second opportunity to pass, and those that fail again are subject to immediate remediation.
I guess, what I'm trying to say is, a McDonald's store is not your garden variety restaurant where a new hire can just take over. There are corporate policies to adhere to.
What's more, your story is full of off-topic embellishments, which leads me to believe that the situation wasn't nearly as dramatic as you claim.
With the exclusion of McDonald’s specialty (like the McRib) the information presented can be the same as any fast food place.
I worked at Krystals (the southern White Castle) and the cleaning process is the same. So as the onions, replacing of food, and so on.
One example is that it the oil (made to cook all fried food items) is changed every 2-3 days. If you black specks on your fries, that’s a clear indicator of oooooolllllllddddd grease. Even darker than golden brown shouldn’t be consumed since it already at it 2 day mark by then. At the restaurant that I worked at, we would even place patties in the grease to quickly heat them up if a grill was occupied or down or whatever.
Bottom line and moral of the story: don’t eat fast food
LIES! Worked there....I would eat anything off of the menu.
ok

McDonald's is actually the cleanest place to go. It's regimented.
Quit lying every mcdonalds I have ever worked at has always cleaned everything. Plus all food has a shelf life afterwards it gets thrown away.

Not true, everyone uses that machine like crazy and you have to clean it everyday. Shit takes like 30 minutes and that’s when everyone decides to order a smoothie, or a frappe 🤦🏽♀️
It's case to case basis, thanks for sharing your thoughts though.
DUDE LEGIT. Why does everyone decide to order ice cream and frappes when we're cleaning both the damn machines? Then they get mad at us, like bitch you want crusty old frappe in yo frappe? Yeah didn't think so.
Raven Blake right!
I work at Mcdonald's and that bit about not washing the machines or cleaning things in general is not true at all. We wash the machines very often, and wash all the dispensers and dishes daily. Although, I do work at a franchise so maybe we have different standards. We also never give customers something they didn't ask for. If they ask for decaf coffee and we don't have it made, we make a new pot. There are also cheat sheets above where we make the sandwiches, so we will never make the sandwich wrong.
Ok this is true some Patty's come out bloody but just remember how you like your steak.
All this talk about McDonald's makes me wanna have some
