(NewsNibs) - Customers looking for a more substantial version of the classic Big Mac will have their cravings satisfied with the nationwide launch of the Double Big Mac. This heftier option includes four 100% beef patties, layered with an extra helping of the signature Big Mac sauce, a double portion of pickles, shredded lettuce, and minced onions, all sandwiched between a sesame seed bun.
Nutritional Content and Availability
Despite its appeal to those with larger appetites, consumers should be aware of the Double Big Mac's nutritional content. At 740 calories, it packs a heftier punch than the standard Big Mac, which contains 590 calories. The Double Big Mac first made its appearance on limited menus in 2020, alongside the Little Mac, and has since moved to become a nationwide offering. However, McDonald's has noted that there may be price variations for the burger across different restaurant locations.
A Look Back at Big Mac Variations
The Big Mac has seen various iterations over the years. In 2017 and 2018, McDonald's experimented with different sizes of the Big Mac, such as the Grand Mac and the Mac Jr. The Grand Mac featured two larger patties and came with an upsized bun. As McDonald’s continues to innovate their menu, the Double Big Mac becomes the latest addition to their long history of special editions and variations of their signature burger.
The introduction of the Double Big Mac marks another chapter in the evolution of one of the most famous burgers in the world. McDonald's continues to cater to the taste preferences of Big Mac enthusiasts and those looking for something more substantial than the classic offering. Consumers can indulge in this amped-up burger at participating locations nationwide.
