Do you ever wonder why you can never get soft- serve ice cream from Mcdonald’s, why is it that the machines are mysteriously always down? Is it part of some larger conspiracy? Well, the Federal Trade Commission is looking into the issue, because, if it’s part of the Menu, then it should be offered. The FTC has begun to send letters to the owners of the franchise, they are working and asking them to explain this phenomenon. The major problem according to franchise owners is maintenance and repairs. The machines are incredibly difficult to fix and quite complicated. The FTC is looking into whether or not managers are able to fix their own machines.
Fans of the soft serve miracle are so fed up, they have created an app that shows which Mcdonald’s machines are down, and which ones are up and running. You can check it out at Mcboken.com. The engineer places an order worth 18,752 dollars every minute to keep the map up to date in real time. He admits that at first, he created the app as a joke, but now it’s a really useful tool for many soft serve seekers. A “search for a permanent solution to the soft serve machine problem” is in the work according to franchise owners.
