Customization literacy
Plain builds reduce surprises. Extra cheese, bacon, guacamole, or premium protein usually change both price and calories. Ask locally about upcharges before you assume a modification is free.
Allergen & cross-contact reminder
Shared kitchens mean risk. Price Plate Guide cannot certify allergens for any McDonald's restaurant. Speak with staff and use official allergen resources.
