Tried the coffee at McDo last night. Friends had told me for years that it is very serviceable and always fresh but I’m fairly snooty when it comes to coffee. Anyhow, in my opinion, they were right. I’ve had plenty of homemade stuff that was far worse. Price doesn’t break the bank, at a buck fifty, and it comes out at a reasonable drinking temp. Flavor is about like what you get when making coffee with a fresh-cracked bag of supermarket preground stuff. Just plain old decent coffee. For years I just relayed this recommendation with a caveat that I never tried it myself, but now I can shill for them directly. Wheres my check mickey?

    Yep, I enjoy my Aeropress (single origin, natural process, Ethiopian lol) when I can. However McD is decent enough, better than Starbucks in my opinion. Apart from some of their filter coffee.

        reminder that Starbucks is not about selling coffee, it’s about selling frappucccinos, mochaccinos, and the like – they purposely over-roast their coffee so you will pay for the sugar concoctions to cover up the flavor
