Omg yes, that sauce was everything. Ive actually been trying to recreate it, got close once with a mix of mayo, mustard, and a bit of honey. Still working on it, it’s not just about the taste, it's about the memories, ya know

Anyone tried to make their own Arch Deluxe at home? I've been hunting down classic recipes and attempting to bring them back to life in my kitchen. That fancy sauce is tricky to nail down though. Would love to hear if anyone's had success!

Yeah the Arch Deluxe was nice, but it was too pricey for McD's usual crowd. Wonder if they'd consider a resurrection with a few tweaks... prices included lol

From a marketing perspective, the Arch Deluxe was a fascinating case. McD's really thought they could rebrand for a more 'adult' demographic but misjudged the market. But that misstep makes it all the more cult classic now, doesn't it?

Arch Deluxe? More like Arch Overrated. It tried too hard to be something it wasn't. McD's is about the Big Mac, not some potato-rolled, fancy sauced 'deluxe'. Stick to the classics, lol.

McD's went full on gourmet mode with the Arch Deluxe. It flopped cuz it was ahead of its time—gourmet burgers weren't a thing. If they brought it back, it'd compete with the artisan stuff we see now. But, that sauce... couldn't replicate it if I tried.

Totally onboard with this, the Arch Deluxe is one of those things you never knew you'd miss till it was gone. Wish McD's would do a throwback release like they do with the McRib sometimes.

Man, the Arch Deluxe was the bomb! People just didn't get it back then. They weren't ready for a gourmet touch in their fast food lol. Today it would crush it with all the foodies and insta-food critics.
