Today's McDonald's menu is pretty complex, but according to Chowhound's Katie Melynn, the classic hamburger still remains among the best burgers at McDonald's.
The standard hamburger at McDonald's is the quintessential fast food burger. In her ranking, Katie Melynn notes that it is well-balanced in terms of bun, burger size, and overall flavor.
The condiments are ketchup, mustard, pickles, and chopped onions, which work well together without overpowering the 100% beef patty seasoned with salt and pepper.
The burger is quite portable, as nothing spills out. It’s also cheap — HackTheMenu prices it at $2.69, while a fast food burger averages about $8.41 in 2024, per Bloomberg.
