It was a haddock scotch egg, so no pork mince, but haddock flakes.

It came with six little rocket leaves, 3 dots of balsamic vinegar, and three dots of horseradish.

Would have to say it was easily the best scotch egg I’ve ever had.

 

 

 

 

What was it served on, a roof tile, or the memory of a philosopher's childhood? Definitely wasn't a plate for that price :D

I would eat that, definitely. To call it a scotch egg is a bit gimpy.

Is a Mcdouble the same as a double cheeseburger? Same price here if so £1.99

Yeah but Poland vs UK. I'm always told how cheap is; it ain't

I've always found McDonald's prices to be pretty consistent no matter the country.

I've always found McDonald's to be consistently disappointing no.matter the country. 

The idea is so much better than the reality.

Mcdonald’s “travels” worse than any other food. In store it’s actually reasonable when it’s hot and fresh. Getting it delivered really is a waste of time. I’m surprised the people at McDonalds HQ haven’t removed themselves from Uber/Just East because the food is so shit on arrival.

McDonald is the worst fast food (generally, chain wise) out there.  I'm surprised it's as popular as it is.

It's like crack to people. Genuinely baffled how popular it is.

It used to be cheap and consistent, with all the recent price rises you could argue it’s neither these days.

It wasn’t that long ago you could get a Big Mac and fries for 1.99 or a full meal for 2.99. Can’t even get a triple cheese burger for less than 3 quid now.

Supermarkets being investigated on food and fuel prices. Fuel they are definitely ripping us off.

They should fine them big and put the money towards the nhs

They can investigate them all they like but I doubt there is much they can do aside from naming and shaming. They are free to sell at whatever price they like.
