I’m not that often in Maccies but I’ve never heard of the flurry machine being broken, I’ve read it’s a US thing due to the maintenance contracts
That said the meme still works in Europe because I’m pretty sure they’re not allowed to call that hydrogenated vegetable oil-filled shite “ice cream” here 😂
Hydrogenated vegetable oil? The stuff that is used for soft-serv in the US is ultra-thick sweetened, vanilla flavored, milk. You could put it on cereal, if you really want diabetes.
Ingredients: Milk, Sugar, Cream, Corn Syrup, Natural Flavor, Mono And Diglycerides, Cellulose Gum, Guar Gum, Carrageenan, Vitamin A Palmitate.
Funny thing is that over here in Europe the ice cream machines seem to work almost all the time. I understand that it’s because they use a different brand of machines, but I’m not sure about the details.
There they had to change the machines to the other brand because the ones they use here (us) was found to literally be designed to require a ton of maintinence so they could make money charging for repairs.
TLDR machine designed to break breaks a lot, not allowed in Europe.

They are down for maintenance frequently, but nowhere near as frequently as the American locations that have the fucked up contracts with the machine manufacturer.
I feel for Americans and their broken McDonald’s ice cream machines… McFlurrys are bomb af
The interwebs seem very, very concerned over Mac and Don’s supperclub’s ability to provide an awful excuse for “ice cream” in the world’s worst cone. Stop the madness. Touch grass and eat real food, nerds.
Don’t feel bad. Biology programmed you to prioritize it because it’s calorically dense and rare in nature, therefore important to survival and the propagation of your genes. The fact that it’s become widely available and cheap is not a matter of failure in individuals, but rather an example of the success of our species and civilizations.
Or something. Idk. Junk food is yummy. The key is moderation.
Am I weird for thinking McDonald’s soft serve is decent? I see a lot of people joking it’s not ice cream.
