McDonald’s Mystery: The Dark History and Forgotten Legacy Of Everyone’s Beloved Burger Joint
The Myth Of The Secret Big Mac Sauce
The Big Mac, McDonald’s hallmark burger, was not a corporate invention but the brainchild of franchisee Jim Delligatti 50 years ago. Known for its “two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, onions, cheese, and pickles on a sesame-seed bun,” this iconic sandwich reigns as the world’s best-selling burger, with approximately 550 million consumed annually.
Contrary to popular belief, its pale orange tangy, sweet, and creamy “special sauce” isn’t shrouded in secrecy; the ingredients are publicly listed on McDonald’s website for all to see. For those looking to replicate the Big Mac experience in their own kitchens, many copycat recipes are readily available.
