ACook of McDonald's CookClarify that the Milkshake-based machine is cleaned once a week and the process takes about two to three hours. They said it was much more likely that you can not get your milkshake because the machine frequently passes into "Freezer Lock".

"The ice cream machine can be a giant pain. If someone does not keep an eye on the ice cream level and gets too low, it goes into freezer lock," he explained . As a rule, only a few managers know how to remove the machine from this freezer lock and, even if they are there, it takes hours to retrieve the machine back.

Breakfast for dinner is attractive, but aCook of McDonald's CookThe savvy customers stay away from breakfast items at night and night.

Rather than using gloves, the employee explained that there is a hand wash system instead.

"Every hour, we take the time to send each employee to the sink station to wash your hands until each employee has it," he said. "The use of gloves would not be much more sanitary because bacteria that would build hands denominate also accumulate on the gloves if they were not replaced every hour (or more) too."

The explanation seems to have meaning, but we shudder to think about what is happening in McDonald's restaurants where managers are not vigilant on the washing routine by hand. . .
