A McDonald's 'insider' has shared a top tip for those who can't get enough of the fast-food chain's McNuggets. The TikTok user who claims to be a member of staff says you should always order a 20-piece meal - and never just order four.
The man says that if you order 20 your meal will be 'fresher', reports the Mirror. If you order a lesser amount, then kitchen staff may be able to scrape together your order from leftovers.
After sharing the tip on social media, TikTok user @nicaraguanjesus was inundated with comments as people agreed with his advice - but some threw some doubts on the clip.
In the clip, captioned 'you’re welcome', the worker pulls out a tray of McNuggets and it appears to contain just 21 portions - so nearly all of the freshly cooked bits are needed for a 20-piece meal. However, if someone before you ordered ten, and then you also ordered ten, your McNuggets could be from a previous batch.
The video has been viewed over 600,000 times and had hundreds of comments. One follower said: "No wonder when I got my 10 pieces it wasn’t as crispy as they were when I get 20."
Another recommended just asking them to make a fresh batch, but this was rebuked: "If you ask for it to be fresh they gone put it in the grease for a few seconds yall. Just get that 20."
McDonald's has been approached for comment.
