iFixit tears down a notoriously unreliable McDonald’s ice cream machine: “The error codes are nonsensical, counterintuitive, and seemingly random.”

    I just stopped considering McDonalds a place that serves ice cream. The menu item just doesn’t exist there in my mind.

      I wonder how much this actually hurts their business? Probably more than they realize. My daughter loves ice cream, and I am not going to play McDonald’s roulette, unless I have to. We just go to Wendy’s if we are going to eat fast food, the foods better and cheaper anyway and I have yet to run into a broken machine.

        It probably hurts the franchisee more than it hurts McDonalds proper, and they make it back and then some from their deal with Taylor.
