I’m a McDonald’s employee – there’s a great reason you should ALWAYS order a 20-piece nugget box over smaller sizes

A MCDONALD’S worker has revealed why customers should order 20 chicken nuggets rather than smaller portions.

The employee, who is known as nicaraguanjesus on TikTok, said diners shouldn’t order four, six, or ten pieces.

The worker claims that a 20 box of nuggets will be fresher.

In the video, he has seen opening trays that are packed full of nuggets.

The worker doesn’t explain why a box of 20 nuggets is fresher than smaller portions.

Some TikTokers seemed to believe the worker’s claim despite not offering a reason.

While, others appeared to be more skeptical.

One said: “Just ask for fresh. I used to work there lol.”

The worker also appeared to hate customers that order a “ton of nuggets” at the restaurant.

Redditors online, who claim to work at McDonald’s, said staff will cook a new batch of nuggets if customers request them to be fresh when they order their meal.

Meanwhile, former McDonald’s manager Cody Zeman, of Arkansas, said workers should always engage with customers to reduce tension.

He wrote on the forum Quora: “Ask them how their day is going.”

Zeman said employees should always smile when they head into work.

He added: “Always walk into work with a clean uniform. Always have an open mind.

“This sounds very silly, but if you walked into a restaurant and saw someone leaning, staring at the walls, would you feel like that’s kind of sketchy? I certainly would.

“Always try to do something. Whether if it’s (sic) cleaning, sweeping. Something of all.”

Meanwhile, former employee Nicole Weiser revealed in a TikTok video that customers shouldn’t order sweet tea.

She told viewers that she stopped drinking the tea after realizing there was a full four-pound bag of sugar emptied into it for every four gallons.

It left viewers outraged as another ex-worker said: “I worked there as a teen and when I was taught how to make the sweet tea I gagged.”

And, another employee exclusively revealed the secrets behind the fast-food chain’s infamous ice cream machine.

The Sun has approached McDonalds in the UK and US for comment.
