That because she describes how things taste so well. If I wonder what something tastes like, I watch Emmy, and I know. I know exactly how something will taste after she describes it. I know if I will like it or not. Most youtube chefs: "O this is delicious!" (real descriptive - thanks).

I worked at McD's many years ago(1997/8 to 2004). The recon onions are sweeter then the fresh ones. The apples slices have been around for a long time(late 90's to early 2000's). They have a bit of extra tang because they are treated with lemon juice wash to keep them fresher.

[@briley672]

Emmy, future in the car bottle opener hack: depending on your seat belt buckle shape, If you have one with a square hole in the metal part, you can use that as a bottle opener.

[@VenomsDad]

You can also open the door and use the little metal loop thing from the lock

[@auntlynnie]

I used to work at McDonald’s. I always loved reconstituting the onions. I’m not sure why.

[@ipissed]

The tartness of the apple slices is from the citric acid preservative. You can buy it at the supermarket as Fruit Fresh, and other brand names. It's an all around great ingredient for the kitchen. Sprinkle some in your homemade sauces to wake those canned tomatoes up.

[@Jhud69]

Honestly it makes a ton of sense. Dill pickles aren't common in Poland (normal pickles very much are, just not dill pickles) and I can imagine to keep an authentic flavor it would be hard to transport them in jars etc to different countries. Definitely a transport saver

[@BootsAndPearls85]

I knew that second burger would fail based on that pitiful amount of diced onions. I'm with you Emmy, those dehydrated onions (and for me the orange cheese) is what makes McD's burgers!

Unhappy meal is a proper name for it.

[@bunhelsingslegacy3549]

Am I remembering wrong? I thought there were two or three pickle slices on a Mc D burger? Then again maybe they downsized, it's probably been 30 years since I had a straight up Mc D's burger... I also thought it was real onions too, then again maybe there are differences by country, since I'm not in USA. Nuggets weren't even available here till I was 8.

[@kaivickers166]

So funny, we got burgers at a much more expensive burger place and I was annoyed as can be that the cheese wasn’t melted. It was literally cold. Say what you want about McDonald’s, but the cheese is always melted.

their cheese is good. I know it's just processed crap, but it's the best processed crap

[@rejn1420]

Your door latch works perfectly fine as a bottle opener. It’s great that you did this taste test but it also makes me sad because of the price. Everything that they’ve used cost much much less then meat. The impossible products are good but very much overpriced. As it’s still considered a Niche market. also funny. I’m not sure that they’re trying to compare their burger with McDonald’s I think they’re just making a Interesting marketable vegan Restaurant. Although I’ve never had a McDonald’s burger or any Burger that’s not veg. In 6 decades The smell of a mcd happy meal Is really nice :-)

[@SabrinApollo]

A seat belt buckle can open bottles too.

[@EzraM5]

Burger King's Impossible Whopper is pretty much the standard for how those should be made, it really is a 1:1 deal. As for the price, considering that I can get a regular combo with 10 dollars, this isn't /terrible/ but it's not quite as ideal as it should be, I will agree there.

[@ekohw]

@@EzraM5 we also have to factor in the chicken nuggets and that it's in LA I personally hate the burger King impossible whopper, it is way to dry and just overly bland- Although I do prefer beyond so Carl's Jr is usually a great option for myself but for impossible and getting that very flavorful not so dry taste, Mr beasts impossible burgers are good 🤌 I don't think I was huge on burgers from McDonald's growing up, more so their chicken and then only the fries or breakfast items so I haven't tasted McDonald's in years but I do know I was never a huge fan

[@ekohw]

@@EzraM5 I will also say that there price tag seems just a bit high considering their food doesn't seem to be the best and it's in LA which also soo so so many fully vegan restaurants that for cheaper you could get a way better experience- definitely something to try once for nostalgia then move on

Nice you're enjoying it!

6:05 Emmy, if you ever have a bottle you need an opener for and you're in the car, try using your seatbelt buckle as a bottle opener!

Hope this helps somebody!

The apple slices have definitely been around for longer than a decade. My brother has never been a fan of potatoes (yes, even fries and chips!) so when McDonald's introduced the apple dippers (they used to come with a caramel sauce) that became his go-to. The last time either of us had a Happy Meal was probably around 2005-2007, so it's probably been nearly TWENTY years since they came out with the apple slices!

I love vegan nuggets! And vegan sausages are yummy too :) I can’t eat red meats and I don’t like the idea of eating meat, but it’s also important to try and keep as many options in my diet as I can because I have severe digestive disorders and every nutrient counts!

You could have used your seatbelt buckle to open the coke bottle!!!

[@GhoSTiNYC]

@emmymade When in a pinch, the door latch sometimes can be used as a bottle opener

[@froginink27]

Next time use the part of your seat belt that buckles up to open your soda!!

Man I never heard of Mr Charlie’s , but man I wish they had one near me in NC

[@GrumpyManatee]

Who else thought of McDowell's and the Golden Arcs?

[@nicholaskarako5701]

Fifteen dollars for the unhappy meal seems about right considering your getting an adult portion size like a bigger burger, plant based chicken nuggets plus a large order of fries. Plus a Coke cola in a glass bottle made with sugar and not corn syrup. I hope Emmy buys a bottle opener key chain at some point after posting this video. Got a shark bottle opener key chain from a classmate in college for my birthday many years ago and it definitely has been very handy.

Also, the plant-based protein in the vegan meal isn't subsidized, which artificially suppresses the true costs.

Its so cool to see a person that understand how unhealthy this is but still likes it.

[@laprincesse83301]

Sometimes I order the apple slices for my guinea pig as a treat. He likes them (and it keeps him from begging for my food at the same time, haha), and it's pretty much the only piggy-safe thing I know of that I can order from McDonald's.

[@evil1by1]

The side salad is ok. Yes its iceberg lettuce but pigs can have that in moderation like any fruit. Plus it has tomatoes which my pigs loved so so much.

[@laprincesse83301]

@@evil1by1 The McDonald's places around here don't have salad anymore.

[@Booshiehallie]

My favorite part of a McDonald’s cheeseburger is the little onions as well.

[@michellegulden1052]

When I was a child there were three pickles, that was in the 1970's. I remember in the late 1980's, only two. And now, apparently, only one.

[@dnrmoore4124]

This was a nice fun fact

[@Mr-Fowler]

She haven’t figured out how to use the car as the bottle opener

[@SealaxgL]

Emmy, your make me genuinely so happy, your personality is beautiful and the way you describe the taste of the food is great, i'm so grateful that i got to know your channel

[@Xioooo]

I went vegan this year and I would kill to have a Mr. Charlie’s in my city 😭

[@Silvafootfamily525]

I liked when McDonald’s first started the apple slices that they had a caramel dipping sauce

[@ehmzed]

It's got no toy because it's an UNhappy meal lol

[@joannajohn7298]

You could have tried opening the coke on the loop (for want of a better description) that the car door latches to when shut. We did that alot growing up :D

[@DonavanPalacio]

oooh, Emmy havent done one of these kinds of videos in a hot minute, this makes me happy that she uploaded this, & the funny thing is that I literally just had McDonald's 😂

[@CookingWithCows]

It's rare that a vegan food company is so self aware that they label their own food as unhappy.

[@Birdbike719]

🤣Spot on.
