What happened to the Big Xtra at canada's McDonalds?

Question

Last time I went to McDonalds and tryied to order a big xtra the cashier yelled at me, thought I was an idiot and said they dont serve it any more. I thought the big xtra was one of there main items. Those new angus burgers are more expensive and I dont really like anything else but the fries and nuggets. If they dont bring it back Im not eating there anymore is basically my only option now. :(

Answer 1

Wait! A Fast food employee yelled at you and you did not complain?

I would have at least gotten a free meal if not the jerk's job!

The Big Xtra was actually a varient of the Big N' Tasty - The Big Xtra included similar ingredients as the current Big N' Tasty. The sauce was a tomato flavored mayonnaise instead of separate ketchup and mayonnaise plus a special grill seasoning only used on the Big Xtra. The patty was a larger three-eighths pound, or 6 ounces (170 g), beef patty verses the quarter pound, or 4 ounces (110 g), patty found in the Big N' Tasty.

The Big Xtra was discontinued in Canada in May 2008 in favor of the new Angus Burgers.

Answer 2

Supersize, Big Xtra are all gone, too many people blamed/sued Mickey D's for making them fat.
