As with the Big Mac, these used to be tasty enough to order once in awhile, but they've gone downhill of late (maybe due to the drought in Argentina, which is where I suspect most of McDonald's beef comes from). Dry and flavorless, the only thing that saves them is the *splortch* of ketchup and mustard in the middle. The cheese is only sharp enough if it remains half-melted, and the shanks of layered onion are becoming overwhelmingly strong. They always look decent (due to the absence of shredded lettuce scattered around the carton's corners), which helps them go down easier. Expensive if not purchased during a promotional special. Making your own burgers at home is still the only assurance of quality control.
