I know I'm a person that can appreciate the finer of something but am more than satisfied most of the time with the 'regular' of something like an ice cream cone.

 

Here the McDonald's cones are 49 cents, you don't have to get out of the car, and can keep moving while getting your treat! Something from another place will be $5 or more. So once in a blue moon for the finer one, and McDonald's for most times!

I love the ice cream cone and it's 8 pts. on WW.  Yum.


The trouble is, the cones vary a lot in size depending upon each particular McDonald's were purchased, so it's really hard to tell the true number of WW points in the particular cone being ingested..

If they ever start serving authentic gelato, I'm in.

@catlover  I love McDonalds. The one in our community was built when my youngest was a toddler. He is now 38. They tore it down in May and immediately began re-building and it apparently is a new "model" with a different style, etc. We are all so curious. Their french fries are the bomb and I sure hope they don't change those !!

The yogurt parfaits are a great treat and just 150 calories. I think they're around a buck, like the cones, at least in my area.

@wildcat fan

we have that same problem! we have three mcdonalds in our area......all within a few miles of each other. TWO of them always say "our ice cream machine is down." i think they must be lazy to get it fixed or they just dont want the hassle of cleaning the machine.

@Katcat1  It's not meant to be negative, only the truth.  Sorry you have a problem with that but those points will be more than 8 with a large cone. Just the facts, ma'am.   Reality check for you.
