How do you eat your burger at McDonald’s? The way it’s served, right? That means the top bun stays on top, but you end up spilling all the sauces out with the patty dropping down the sides. Next time, try flipping the burger. Since the top bun is twice as thick as the bottom one, it’s much less likely to fall apart when it is flipped upside down. Now that’s what we call a life hack!
