    So yes, sometimes (more often than I should) I give in to the greasy urges and visit maccas, it makes for a second best hangover cure if I can't be bothered waiting for the pizza shop to open. Anyway, they have come up with a new cup design.

    .... Who writes this sh*t?!?! "Perfectly poured for maximum refreshment" ???

    Ummmmmmm..... How can you non perfectly pour a cup of cheap coke? There is no skill involved in holding the cup under a nozel and pressing the spray button.

    I swear they were ready to kick me out when I went back up to the counter, barely containing my laughter, and asked for a new drink because it was clear the one I had was in fact not 'perfectly poured' as advertised, as such I simply wasn't getting the maximum refreshment I paid for. I merely (quite politely I might add) requested that I have a new drink that stands up to my standards of perfection in the pouring as is my right as a customer.


    Ahhh general chat. I love it, can't believe it took me so long to discover it.

    Maybe it's an arcane art similar to pulling pints? You have to angle and time it right to get the ideal head of foam...

    Aussie barchicks are lazy. :p Fil lthe beer until it reaches the top, tip the head down the drain, top up. And who ever has head on their coke?

    It could be though. I definitely notice average bubble size in the vintage contributes significantly to the enjoyment factor of coke. I prefer a finer bubble that is more numerous thus it fills the mouth with little disturbance. Larger bubbles tend to cause undesirable gas and make the drink experience somewhat below perfect and refreshing. I always thought that art was in the mixture of components, not the pour, but I have never worked in a fast food joint.

    They pay their employees SO good at Mikey D's that they expect nothing but the best in the concern of drink pouring. You did right in asking for a new drink that was poured correctly.

    The drinks are in fact poured by a machine,unless your in the lobby,in that case the onus of perfect pouring lies squarely on your shoulders.

    Slannfrogy, if you want to reply to a topic; great.
    But, before you go poist-crazy, please take a look at the date the last post was made.
    In this case, that was 23 okt 2009...That's quite a while ago....
    Also, nobody kept this topic going. After 23 okt nobody replied, which most of the time means that people lost interest, or the topic ran out of fuel to discuss/reply on. So, if you want to 'up' your post count, simply contribute to the more active parts of the forum.
    I believe replying to a very old topic is called 'Threadomancy', and it's not really appreciated on forums around.As a side note, try to add more than a single line of text. In general chat, it's more easily accepted. But on other parts of the forum, try to add more then 'yes, I agree. Looks good.'
    I hope you understand :D
    No big deal though, just remember this :)
