McFlurry machine broken? Now know before you go!
Saw an article on this over weekend. Some intrepid fellow has build a site similar to the McRib search tool to show which sites machines are down.

McBroken.com

The methodology he employed is pretty creative:

quote:
Zahid started with the McDonald’s mobile app, which already lets you place an order at any McDonald’s location. It works like shopping on Amazon or Grubhub — you add the items you want to a cart, and pay when you’re ready. But if your chosen location doesn’t have a working ice-cream machine, you can’t add any items containing ice cream to your cart — they’re marked as “Currently unavailable.”

McD has enough money for six Flurry machines per store. No more than 2 MacHines can be down at any one time.
If so, that McD gets bulldozed to the ground, and its Golden Arches get torched, but the burnt husks shall remain as a sign for generations of that which is unacceptable.

(my inner 12 year old is hangry after all that fightin' commie talk...)

They are LEGENDARY for broken machines. There are dozens of memes over them. One goes:

Nothing. It’s just soft serve in a cone or with stuff mixed in like a Sonic Blast or Blizzard.

I like them. They are cheap, and a good 'ice cream fix.'

They are about the only thing, besides coffee, that I actually like at McDonalds.
