FunBundles: 7 Snacks From McDonald’s
We’re Lovin’ ETH
Do you ever think about what it would cost to pay for your lunch with cryptocurrency? Paying for everyday items in crypto is becoming more common as businesses are beginning to accept it in place of fiat. It is likely you can find restaurants near you that already accept some cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, but one day soon you will be able to buy food at restaurants as large as McDonald’s!
For fun, we have put together some of McDonald’s most popular menu items and swapped their dollar values to their value in Ethereum as of August 15th, 2018 of 1ETH = $285.
1. Cheeseburger
The Cheeseburger is a classic American meal that countries all around the world have adopted. Many people spend a considerable amount of money per year on cheeseburgers as it proves a simple, yet tasty, and protein rich meal. Cheeseburgers can sell for a range of prices, but for those who try to manage their money frugally, it will be helpful to know the going price of McDonald’s Cheeseburger is just $1.00 or 0.0035ETH!
2. Chicken McNuggets
For many people, a trip to McDonald’s may include a cheeseburger or McDonald’s famous Chicken McNuggets to complement or substitute the burger entirely! The food chain offers their McNuggets in 4, 6, 10, 20, or 50 piece orders. Chickens don’t need all those nuggets anyways. A 4 piece McNugget order will cost $1.99 or 0.0070ETH, while a 50 piece order will cost $9.99 or 0.035ETH.
3. Side Salad
Among all their menu items McDonald’s is probably least well known for their salads, but it is important to remember to eat your vegetables! McDonald’s is aware most people do not consider their food to be very healthy, so they make a conscious effort to include options like apple slices, yogurt parfetts, and salads. There are several main course salads including the Premium Bacon Ranch Salad, Salad with grilled chicken,and the Southwest Salad that go for an average price slightly above $4.00. However, if you still want to order a main meal with a salad on the side, the Side Salad costs only $1.00 or 0.0035ETH.
4. Diet Coke
It is no surprise McDonald’s offers a large variety of drinks to their customers. Among smoothies, coffees, teas and juices, plenty of soft drinks are also available. The soft drinks come in four different sizes; extra small, small, medium, and large, with a large costing $1.59 or 0.0056ETH. Of course, prices go down from there as a small Diet Coke or a bottled water would cost $1.00 or 0.0035ETH.
5. World Famous Fries
No meal from McDonald’s would be complete without a side of their World Famous Fries. Salty, crispy, and oh so satisfying, it is a gift that McDonald’s offers a side of fries for as little as $1.39 or 0.0049ETH. If you just cannot get enough of them, a large side of french fries only costs 50 cents more at $1.89 or 0.0067ETH.
6. Tangy Barbecue Sauce
Interested in a side sauce? The Tangy Barbecue Sauce works well with your chicken Mcnuggets, French Fries, and if you are feeling experimental you could try some with your burger! If you are not lucky enough to eat at a McDonald’s that does not charge extra for sauce then you should not have to worry about paying more than 50 cents or 0.0018ETH for a little extra flavor.
7. Kiddie Cone
Don’t forget dessert! A great treat to top off a meal at McDonald’s is the Kiddie Cone, and don’t let the name fool you, this dessert is great for all ages. The Kiddie Cone consists of a McDonald’s vanilla soft serve ice-cream in a crisp mini cone for a small fee of $1.00 or 0.0035ETH — and sorry chocolate fans, vanilla is the only flavor available with this treat.
This concludes our list of popular McDonald’s menu items. In many locations around the world, McDonald’s offers inexpensive prices for quick and tasty service.
