Just thought I would give people out there a big heads up on the new treats at McDs these days. In particular just two, the S'mores pie and creme brulee McFlurry.
The first one to mention is the S'mores pie and right off the bat it was going to be a disappointment. Not because of the chocolate or marshmellow but because it is simply a McDs pie. I remember the good old days when I was growing up when they deep fried the pies. Back in the good old days when the burgers came in stryofoam containers and the toys were actually kind of cool. Back in the days when the pies were actually sweet and good and the filling was hot. The filling was so hot that the 'caution: filling may be hot' was misleading and it should have read 'caution: filling is molten lava'. The filling was just to the point of melted and I guess I had it standing up in the bag because the first two bites had me eating nothing but dry and tasteless dough. It was then I realized that all the filling had oozed down to the botttom 1/4 of the pie so I turned it around and took a big bite. The filling wasnt too bad though I would have enjoyed it a bit hotter and the fact that I had 1/4 of a pie with actual filling and then 3/4 of over baked, dry and tasteless pie dough. S'mores pie, big disappointment.
Then there was the creme brulee McFlurry. Only thing I can say about this is that it is just soft serve ice cream with a butterscotch sauce whipped into it and bits of toffee in it (sort of like the Skor bits). It wasn't that bad though after having tried the Blizzards at DQ, McDs was a big disappointment.
So far all I can say is that McDs has disappointment me this holiday season when it comes to the new treats and desserts put out so far.

Don't know about McD's but creme brulee @ M&M Meat Shops - yummalicious. I can't get enough. A.G.
ReplyDeletedefinitly on that one A.G. I also agree that the creme brulee at M&Ms is a good treat. Only thing I didnt like about it was the pastry bottom that seemed to go all dry and tasteless after preparing it. I eat the custard out of the pastry cup and throw the pastry away and it is heaven.
ReplyDeleteTastes as good as homemade just without all the hassle of the mixing and water bath.
