McDonald’s
$1 Big Mac – Order a double cheeseburger from the dollar menu and ask for lettuce and Big Mac sauce, and viola – a $1 Big Mac!
2 Cheeseburger Value Meal – I loved the #2 when it was still around – 2 cheeseburgers, a medium fry, and a medium drink – it was like a big kids’ meal. Good news, even though you do not see it on the menu board, it is still around:)
Fries with Big Mac Sauce - Try to silence your arteries as best you can and just go for it, just once…
Big Mac Quarter Pounder – I think this one is pretty self-explanatory, and I am also fairly sure you will steer clear of McDonald’s for at least a few months after devouring a sandwich of this caliber.
In-N-Out Burger
Protein Style – I personally like having the bun so it sucks up some of the delicious burger grease, but for those of you still bowing to Dr. Atkins, this is a worthy choice.
Animal Style Burgers and Fries – Get your meat patty or fries smothered in extra spread with a healthy smattering of grilled onions.
Grilled Cheese – A perfect ‘off menu’ choice for all of you herbivores.
3×3, 4×4, etc. – I think they have taken to the practice of banning the 100×100 after its recent surge in popularity on the internets, but the x by x at In and Out allows you to stack as many meat patties as you want between two buns.
UPDATE – While you can still order more than 4×4, they package them all seperately and make you put them all together yourself for fear that they might be promoting an unhealthy habit/lifestyle. The picture above is a 100×100 In-N-Out burger.
Starbucks
The Red Eye/Hammerhead – A cup of coffee with a shot of espresso dumped in.
Black Eye – TWO shots of espresso dumped in a cup of coffee – three shots anyone?
Americanos – Espresso weakened with hot water to normal coffee strength; why does anyone order this?
Caffe Breva – Why have your latte with foamed milk when you can have it with foamed CREAM?
Short Cup – Do not let their display fool you, there is a size smaller than the tall, which is adequately named, “the short”.
After further reading, I have discovered that pretty much the sky is the limit with regard to customization at Starbucks. Due to their policy that ‘the customer is always right’ they are required to happily fulfill any request given to them, even if that means throwing your coffee in the blender or adding a squirt of every syrup to your latte.
Subway
Pizza Sub – Pepperonis, mozzarella cheese, and meatball sauce. Delicous? Yes. Easy to find? No.
The Old Cut aka Classic Cut – Remember when the kind hearted souls at Subway used to dig a trench in your bread and stuff all the fixins inside? Well now you can ask for it by name:)
Jamba Juice
Secret smoothie flavors at Jamba Juice include – White Gummi Bear, Red Gummi Bear, Green Gummi Bear, Raspberry Dreaming, Pineapple Dreaming, Sourpatch Kid, Tropical Tango, Pacific Passion, Berry Depressing, Now and Later, Peanut Butter and Jelly, Apple Pie, Fruity Pebbles, Rainbow Sherbet, Strawberry Shortcake, Push Pop, Skittles, and Lemonade Lightning.
Kid’s Size – When you order a regular sized drink at Jamba they will give you the kid’s size (basically all the leftovers from making the smoothie) for FREE.
Wendy’s
Grand Slam – You guessed it right – that is four patties between your buns to make this burger the perfect meat cube.
With “Everything” – Which at Wendy’s means lettuce and tomato, but usually they will give you this for free and it can help to make some of their cheaper sandwiches, like the Double Stack, just that much better (and more nutritious of course).
Barnyard – Spicy chicken breast, ham, bacon, and beef with cheese between each layer.
Mustard Whopper – Perfect for the mayo-hating crowd, this one is a classic Whopper with mustard instead of mayonnaise.
Veggie Whopper – Everything the Whopper is known for, minus the beef.
Rodeo Burger – Cheeseburger with BBQ sauce and onion rings in it. Yummm…
Dude.. i worked at Jamba and i didnt even know about all the secret drinks you listed!
Alas, this sorta kinda works but not at all McDs maintain the $1 price. I went to try this out last night athe nearest McDs and they charged me 22¢ for the sauce. I asked about lettuce, it was the same.
I tried to eat it as is, with sauce – and it was about as good as any McD burger I’ve had. Cheaper than many many alternative po’folks meals. I think it’s a good recommendation for homeless or those really running low on cash – it’s a very large number of calories for that $1.xx. Somewhere around 440, if http://nutrition.mcdonalds.com/bagamcmeal/nutrition_facts.html is correct. Add sauce and it probably tiptoes toward 500 calories, which is good enough to keep an adult homeless person alive to hunt for more food or money.
Hot Damn……this just made me hungry!!!!!
But with finances the way they are I cant go wrong with the $1 Big Mac…
Thanks Buddy
