[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask for fries with no salt…then add your own.  
I hate tartar sauce, so when I get it, it’s fresh.

I rarely eat there, but my special requests are always hot and fresh.[/quote]

Why would it be "fresh"? They just leave the tartar sauce off when assembling your sandwich using whatever filets they have around.

I think there is this assumption that they have piles of sandwiches sitting around under heat lamps, waiting for suckers who don't ask for something fresh, when I don't think this is the case. They just assemble the food when you order.[/quote]

It’s been a quarter century since I worked at McDonald’s, but yes, there were sandwiches under heat lamps. And a special order did get made to order-it’s likely/possible (especially at a busy time) that the process was already started-the meat down on the grill, buns being prepped, so on. If that’s the case, they prep a special bun and finish when cooked.  But if not, yes, the meat would be started when ordered. Or the fish patty fried to order. 
The meat for burgers isn’t just sitting around in the back already cooked. It gets cooked and made into the burger right away. 
No salt fries get made when the next batch comes out-that might mean a new batch gets dropped when you order, or you get them faster if a batch is down already. 
Maybe things have changed. But probably not.
