Promotional images of fast food burgers often mislead consumers, leading them to expect more than what they actually receive. The reality is often a poorly constructed burger (or any other unfortunate food item off the menu), resembling the Leaning Tower of Pisa, which is far from appealing.
However, the McSenget Instagram account is a refreshing change from the norm. It showcases an array of overstacked burgers, some precariously balanced, others with ingredients haphazardly placed. These burgers may not look appetizing, but they sure are entertaining to behold. This account serves as a fun and lighthearted take on fast-food burgers, as well as other fast-food such as icecream, hashbrowns, and other things, offering followers a unique and humorous perspective on the industry.
With that being said, if you'd love to see more messed up burgers or food in general, then make sure to check out part 1 on Bored Panda.

Bored Panda got in touch with the team of McSenget to learn more about their page and this initiative. We got curious about how they decide on which pictures are worth to be shared on their page. The creators shared that they have a team that will assess the submissions. "There are certain submissions that were just really funny and were no-brainers. Other times when a team member found a picture to be suspicious, or contentious of being “senget”, the team would discuss it over our team chat. Sometimes even putting up for a vote!"
The founders of McSenget's Instagram page revealed that they used to receive 20 submissions per day at their peak, but it had been relatively quiet these days. Nowadays they get around 2 or 3 posts in a week.
We asked the team whether they noticed any trends or common issues with the quality of McDonald's burgers. They answered that they do observe a significant drop in submissions "if that’s any indication of improvement in alignment quality. But it could mean that people no longer find “senget” burgers funny. But as a regular customer, I do observe that the burgers I personally receive tend to be very much improved. So kudos to McDonald’s and their staff!"
Filet o fish! Don’t judge me but I get it with bread, the fish thing, and mayo. So damn good.
When it comes to the future, the team of McSenget's Instagram page doesn't really have specific plans. Mainly because the team each has a full-time job of their own. "Mcsenget is pretty much managed as a hobby at the moment as it’s fun for us! We barely broke even from our first line of T-shirts, but it was still a fun experience that we’re grateful for! As for plans to cover other restaurants, we did think about it, but we were cautious to implement this content strategy as it might dilute our McCore. But it’s definitely something still on the table for discussion if the team has time to expand on it. Ultimately, we’d be happy to expand our content as long as our fans enjoy it!"
This looks like if the Captcha verification text were a sandwich.
It's McDonald's. Except for the pics showing missing sandwich components, the rest are pretty standard fare. I just feel happy when everything I ordered is actually in the bag. There's a 50/50 chance something is left out, at least at our McDonald's.
Every. Time. And it's always my order, everyone else's is fine, just mine. I've come to expect it
Load More Replies...I would be impressed if someone had a well made Filet o Fish picture.
My local branch does the 'closest to the picture' filet o fish I've ever seen. It's a thing of beauty.
Load More Replies...I haven't eaten at McDonald's since '95 when I got so sick from a sausage McMuffin that I couldn't keep food down for over a week. I still can't even think about eating there .. all of these pictures reinforce my decision! Ewww!!!
Maybe McDonald’s doesn’t like people named Heather (also my name). I got sick off their apple slices, that are premade, among other things.
