The Double Big Mac features not one, not two, not three but FOUR; count'em four, beef patties, stacked between lettuce, pickles, onions, cheese and of course the famous Big Mac Sauce, all on sesame seed bun. McDonald's themselves even described this beast as "double the fun". This isn't the first time McDonald's has experimented with the Big Mac either.
