This is a nice win for self-repair hardware rights.

For context, see their old video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uCpY3tFTIA

I don't think I've ever ordered ice-cream from McDonald's. Not exactly the type of product I'd go to a hamburger joint for.

While McDonald’s ice cream isn’t great, hamburger joints are usually a great spot for ice cream and milkshakes

That's all I used to go there for, but not sure if it's different ice-cream in Europe.

Their ice cream and McFlurry is used to be really good for the value

I say used to because they more or less butchered the McFlurry in the past 7 years they no longer have the iconic spoons they've removed the packaging replacing it with a slightly smaller packaging and they've increased the cost by about double.
