    A double double is not the same as a big mac, a double cheeseburger is probably closer and its 2.97 in California. And probably 10 cents more to add lettuce. It is true that the dd is a bit bigger but not twice as much, and not as big as the double qpc. Mcdonalds is trash anyway.

      A double double is not the same as a big mac

      Really, let’s see… If I remember the commercial correctly:

      Big Mac:

      Two all beef patties
      Special Sauce (1000 Island dressing)
      Lettuce
      Cheese
      Pickles
      Onions
      on a sesame seed bun

      Double Double:

      Two beef patties
      1000 Island dressing (special sauce)
      Lettuce
      Cheese
      Onions (raw by default, grilled on request)
      Toasted Bun

      You’re absolutely correct. The difference between the two is staggering. I didn’t realize sesame seeds and the extra piece of bun they stick in the middle of a Big Mac costs that much more.

      Pickles, well, you can say “double-double with pickles” and they’ll put them on at no extra cost. I suggest not making the mistake of saying “extra pickles” vs. “add pickles”. They take it as a challenge.
