Where I live (Brazil) they use their normal patty for the quarter pounder... it is a completely useless sandwich to be honest, the quarter pounder is almost identical to the cheeseburger, except the cheeseburger is even smaller somehow. It is really sad.
The quarter-pounder here is nowhere near 1/4 of a pound. (seemly they use a 0.2 pound one instead. or 1/5 of a pound)
I actually paid attention last time I went, in more than one store, I ordered quarter pounder and kept watching the drawer, not only they used the drawer, but the burger that went into quarter pounder is same that went into all other products.
- crazygringo 6y agoI lived in Brazil for years (years ago) and the McD's quarter pounders were certainly identical back then. Maybe you have a "bad" McD's by you... but their regular hamburgers are much, much smaller in diameter (and thinner). A quarter pounder burger comes to the edge of the bun. If they used a regular burger, it would be so small it would be invisible when served, you wouldn't see it at all until biting in. Legally, a quarter pounder is always 1/4 lb before cooking. It's always significantly less when served because of the water and fat it loses while cooking. So if you think you're getting a 0.2 lb burger cooked, it's still a real quarter pounder. Their regular hamburger/cheeseburger is waaay less than 0.2 lb. If you want a serious amount of meat, that's what a double quarter pounder is for.
- speeder 6y agoI guess then I live near a "bad" McD... the quarter pounder burger indeed is NOT visible until after you bite into the sandwich, it is nowhere near like the pictures.
