At mcdomenuusa.com, we believe menu information should be clear, useful, and honest.

People visit our website because they want quick answers before ordering from McDonald’s. They may want to check the price of a Big Mac Meal, compare breakfast items, look at calories, find McValue options, or see whether a limited-time item is available.

Our job is to make that information easier to understand.

This Editorial Policy explains how we research, write, review, update, and correct the content published on mcdomenuusa.com.

Who Creates Our Content

mcdomenuusa.com is led by David Livingstone, a food researcher and blogger focused on U.S. McDonald’s menu prices, meal categories, calories, hours, and item availability.

Our editorial work is also reviewed by David Livingstone. David helps review content structure, clarity, accuracy notes, category organization, and reader usefulness before important pages are published or updated.

Together, our goal is to build a menu resource that readers can actually use before placing an order.

We are not trying to write complicated food journalism. We are trying to answer real questions clearly.

What We Write About

Our website covers McDonald’s menu information in the United States.

The main categories we cover include:

• All menu items
• What’s New
• FIFA World Cup Meal
• Extra Value Meals
• McValue
• Breakfast
• Burgers
• Chicken & Fish Sandwiches
• McNuggets & McCrispy Strips
• Snack Wrap
• Fries & Sides
• Happy Meal
• Sweets & Treats
• McCafe Coffees
• Beverages
• Sauces & Condiments

We also publish guides about breakfast hours, lunch hours, holiday hours, calories, meal prices, app deals, combo meals, limited-time items, and local menu availability.

Every article is written with one question in mind: “Will this help someone make a better and faster ordering decision?”

If the answer is no, we improve it before publishing.

How We Research Prices

McDonald’s prices can change by location, city, state, restaurant, app offer, and delivery platform. That is why we do not treat one price as a national guarantee.

Our price research includes weekly checks from selected U.S. locations. We review store-level menu examples, McDonald’s app observations, delivery menu listings, publicly available product details, and category-level price patterns.

When we find meaningful changes, we update our pages.

We usually publish approximate prices or price ranges because that is more honest than pretending every McDonald’s restaurant charges the same amount.

A reader in Texas, New York, California, Florida, or Illinois may see a different price from another reader in a smaller city. That does not mean one price is “wrong.” It means McDonald’s pricing is local.

Our content reflects that reality.

How We Check Calories and Menu Details

When we include calories or menu item details, we aim to keep them practical and easy to compare.

Calories may change depending on item size, selected drink, fries size, sauces, substitutions, preparation, and local menu differences. That is why our calorie information is for general reference only.

For final nutrition, allergens, and ingredients, readers should always check official McDonald’s information or ask their local restaurant.

We are careful not to present calorie information as medical or dietary advice. Our goal is to help readers compare menu items, not make health decisions for them.

How We Write and Edit

We write for regular readers first.

That means our content should be:

• Clear
• Easy to scan
• Organized by category
• Updated when needed
• Honest about local variation
• Helpful before someone orders
• Written in plain language
• Supported by tables where useful

We avoid filler content. We also avoid copying competitor pages or repeating the same generic menu descriptions found across the web.

Before an important page is published, we check whether it answers the main search intent, includes helpful related questions, explains price variation, and links to related menu guides where useful.

Our Approach to Search and Reader Intent

Many readers come to mcdomenuusa.com through search engines. Some arrive through AI answers, social media, or direct visits.

We write with search intent in mind, but we do not write only for algorithms.

A page about breakfast hours should answer when breakfast starts and ends. A page about McValue should help readers understand value options. A page about meal prices should make prices easy to compare. A page about sauces should explain what sauces are available and where they fit in the menu.

Good content should solve the reader’s problem quickly.

That is the standard we aim for.

Corrections and Updates

We welcome corrections from readers.

If you notice a price that looks outdated, a missing item, a changed meal, or a local menu difference, you can contact us. Helpful correction details include:

• Menu item name
• Price you saw
• City and state
• Date checked
• Whether it was in-store, app, drive-thru, or delivery
• Any extra context that may help us verify it

We review corrections and use them to improve future updates.

Not every reader-submitted price will be published immediately. We compare submissions with other information before making changes.

This helps us avoid random one-off errors while still learning from real customer observations.

Editorial Independence

Our editorial decisions are based on usefulness, accuracy, and reader value.

Advertising does not decide what we write. If we display ads through Google AdSense or another ad network, those ads do not control our editorial opinions, price research, category coverage, or update decisions.

Google AdSense publishers are required to follow Google Publisher Policies and AdSense Program Policies. We aim to keep our website transparent, original, useful, and compliant with publisher standards.

If we ever publish sponsored content, affiliate links, or paid placements, we will aim to disclose them clearly where appropriate.

Reader trust comes first.

Use of AI Tools

We may use digital tools, research tools, writing tools, or editing tools to help organize information, improve readability, check structure, or speed up workflow.

However, our content is guided by human research, editorial judgment, and review.

We do not publish unchecked AI-generated claims as facts. Menu prices, hours, calories, and availability must be reviewed with care because they can vary by location and change over time.

Human review remains part of our publishing process.

What We Avoid

We do not knowingly publish:

• Fake prices
• Misleading menu claims
• Copied competitor content
• False official affiliation claims
• Unsupported nutrition claims
• Guaranteed prices for all locations
• Clickbait that hides the answer
• Content that encourages unsafe food choices
• Ads or links disguised as editorial advice

We also avoid saying that every McDonald’s restaurant follows the same hours or pricing.

That is not how real menu pricing works.
