As one of the largest fast-food chain restaurants in the world, McDonald’s sees a wide spectrum of people. They welcome patrons ranging from too shy to ask for an extra ketchup packet, to mavericks who bust through the doors like Daniel Craig dancing to ASAP Ferg’s WAM, singing “I got all the flavor, b*tches say I’m delicious” while they’re on their way to the counter to order the newest viral creation: the Big Mac Quesadilla.
What is the Big Mac Quesadilla?
The take on McDonald’s iconic Big Mac translates the flavors and key ingredients of the fast food staple into quesadilla form. It’s as if McDonald’s and Chipotle had a corporate lovechild, who we’re so glad is both theoretical and inanimate because nobody could grow up well-adjusted with that inheritance. The Big Mac Quesadilla delivers seasoned beef, melted cheese, pickles, onions, lettuce, and Big Mac sauce (obviously) in a grilled tortilla instead of the standard soft sesame bun.
Where can you find it?
This is an unofficial menu item, meaning that McDonald’s doesn’t formally offer it. Some locations can accommodate the request, but that capacity varies. You know what that means? No yelling at the teenager behind the counter saying “Well, the McDonald’s across town did it,” Karen.
How can you order it?
Those who are bold enough order it can do so by going to a McDonalds and following these steps:
1) Ask if they have tortillas. Many locations already serve breakfast burritos, so cross your fingers that they have some to spare.
2) Order a double cheeseburger, Big Mac sauce on the side, and any other preferences. Extra cheese? No onion? Go crazy. You do you.
3) Politely ask if they can wrap it in a tortilla with the beef, cheese, pickles, onions, lettuce, and Big Mac sauce, then grill it like a quesadilla.
4) Offer to pay extra if needed. Bat your eyelashes. Turn on that charm.
5) Remember that some locations can only do certain versions, so be flexible. After stretching, you’ll be limber enough.
6) Say “please,” and “thank you.” Seriously.
7) Enjoy!
8) WE SAID “ENJOY.”
If you’re comfortable ordering off-menu, this is a pretty low-risk, high-reward request. If you’re not comfortable ordering off-menu, remember that you are a valued customer, and that there’s nothing wrong with making the dining experience your own. You deserve to take up space. You are loved. You could be missing out on a Big Mac quesadilla. So go on, Live Mas! Wait, wrong fast food quesadilla source.
