They’re lovin’ it.
A former employee of everyone’s favorite fast food chain revealed some clever ordering hacks for your next Golden Arches run.
In a now-viral video with over 2 million views, the employee shared secrets “you probably don’t know about,” including how to get the freshest fries with your order.
Supposedly, if you order fries without any salt, you’ll receive a fresh batch.
The McDonald’s employee said it’s a way to get fresh fries “without asking for it and seeming annoying.” (Not that that’s stopped anyone before from complaining about soggy fries.)
She also revealed such a thing called the “poor man’s Big Mac” because even fast food prices are getting out of hand these days and we need to save a dollar where we can.
“You’re going to order a McDouble with not ketchup or mustard, add Mac sauce, shredded lettuce and you’re going to get a little, mini Big Mac for half the price,” she explained, which would be a steal considering the average price of just the Big Mac sandwhich is around $6, while a combo meal can set you back anywhere between $10 and $12.49.
The third tip the employee revealed is the “multiple rewards hack,” which requires having multiple McDonald’s accounts and a bit of patience. According to the worker, to use deals at once, you’ll have to log in and out of the accounts.
But hey, if it works — it’s worth it!
The last secret she shared is the difference between a folded egg and a round one on a breakfast sandwich.
“A folded egg is a premade egg that we put on the sausage egg mcmuffin while a round egg is a fresh, cracked egg,” the employee explained.
If you decide to omit the premade nonsense and go the rounded egg route, a user on Reddit pointed out that “You have to do it in-person, not in the app. At the kiosk, it’s in the customization menu, and it’s hidden way at the bottom.”
While another user mentioned how it’s supposedly no extra charge to do this swap.
Commenters on the viral video were delighted to learn of these secrets.
“Thank you for your service,” one person wrote.
“Thanks for the fresh crack egg hack. I will order round eggs now,” a comment read.
“Wow keep secrets coming,” chimed in someone else.
