jfoster Posted February 22, 2013 Share #1 Posted February 22, 2013 I like my shakes and sundays like the next guy. But atleast 50% of the time I go to our local McD's they say the machine is broke. How do you break an icream machine? Has anyone else experienced this with them? We do have a DQ and maybe I need to change venders. One day all I could say was "REALLY" !

playboy Posted February 22, 2013 Share #2 Posted February 22, 2013 I gave up mickey d's shakes a long time ago for this very reason it was either broke or they had already cleaned it for the night. Must be a problem in there restaurant chain. They screw up there breakfast and I'm done with them completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepforkriver Posted February 22, 2013 Share #4 Posted February 22, 2013 we have one mcd's in 30 miles, and you can bet, THE ICE CREAM MACHINE IS BROKE! ALWAYS! Gave up. Have not been back in months. :bang head: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted February 22, 2013 Share #5 Posted February 22, 2013 It obviously must be pretty easy to break an Ice Cream machine. We have so many really good Ice Cream places around here I never go to McD for Ice Cream. After all this is the dairy state Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin-vic-b.c. Posted February 22, 2013 Share #6 Posted February 22, 2013 How do you break an ice cream machine ? I think this question needs to be directed at BIG TOM ! Over use maybe, I guess. I do recall the same problem up here with McDs, I am allergic to milk products now so have not tried in a few years, but recall going to get ice cream for the kids when they were small, 50/50 at best. :stickpoke::stickpoke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade 2000 Posted February 22, 2013 Share #7 Posted February 22, 2013 Around here we call McyDs "Fast Food In Slow Motion" I can get fed at Bob Evans or Waffle House faster and it sure tastes better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBJ Posted February 22, 2013 Share #8 Posted February 22, 2013 actually you can break them from under uses. IF YOU LET THE BARREL FREZE WITHOUT THE BLADES MOVING REGULARLY IT CAN BREAK THE BARRELL MUXER AND OR BURN OUT THE MOTOR. ITS A BALANCING ACT BETWEEN BEING COLD ENOUGH AND WHIPPED ENOUG WITHOUT FREEZING TOO HARD. I USDED TO WORK IN MY DADS CARVEL STORE WHEN I WAS A KID.

That may be why the one out by the big road is always working with it getting more use... or it sees more VR riders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine the mayhem if they tried to tell Big Tom he can NOT have ice cream???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
