Starting with the Burgers
Hall started with a double quarter-pounder with cheese. Tavus opened with a quarter-pounder with cheese. Hall dips his burger in bacon sauce and ketchup. After consuming many burgers, Hall felt the effects.
My jaw’s hurting from chewing so much.
Tavus sampled the veggie burger, which he found tasted surprisingly like chicken. Hall deemed the Filet-O-Fish reminiscent of his mother’s delicious fish finger sandwich. Upon tasting the McPlant, Hall appreciated the flavor despite it not being beef.
Milkshakes & Fries
Thirty minutes into their meal, Hall and Tavus finished the burgers and moved on to the milkshakes and fries. Tavus remarked that consuming so many fries made them feel akin to eating paper.

They found it challenging to finish their last items. Eventually, getting through the fries and drinks, Hall stopped the clock at one hour, four minutes, and roughly 30 seconds.
“We had 17 meals from McDonald’s. Every single burger on the menu as a meal. Done ticked off in an hour,” Hall expressed.
