When it comes to McDonald's, we all have our own rather particular ways of eating it.
From always picking the pickle off your cheeseburger so you can enjoy it whole, eating your fries first, burger second or the game-changing habit of putting your hash brown inside your McMuffin (trust me on that one).
But one Sydney foodie has gone viral on TikTok for claiming that most of us Macca's lovers are missing out on the best way to eat a Big Mac – but not everyone is convinced.
Cake Mail founder Jonathan Massaad, who frequently shares hacks for the fast-food giant on his TikTok, posted a video over the weekend showing the "better" way to eat a Big Mac.
"Order a Big Mac, take the top bun off," Jonathan explained as he opened up the burger.
"Then get the middle (bun) and flip it. Now your meat and sauce ratio is a lot better, because this (top) bun has no sauce, and this has all the sauce."

The video has been viewed more than 270,000 times with many people saying they, too, ate their Big Macs this way.
"I've been doing that for over 30 years," one viewer commented.
"That's how I've always eaten my Big Macs," another person wrote.
"I've been doing it wrong," one commented.
But others disagreed, with some arguing a "Big Mac is perfect the way it is" and there were other ways to fix the sauce ratio.
"I'm paying for three buns I'm gonna eat three buns," one person wrote.

"Just add some extra Mac sauce. 50c guys I swear it's so good!" another commented.
"Just order it without the middle bun, that's what I do," one also wrote.
Earlier this month, Jonathan shared another McDonald's food trick – but this one got a rather more divided response.
"Here's another Macca's hack that you may not like – order an apple pie and three McNuggets," he said in the video.
"Get your apple pie and cut the end off, eat all the apple out of the apple pie. Put it (nuggets) inside the apple pie."
Jonathan dunked his pie-nuggets hybrid in sweet-and-sour sauce before taking a bit, adding: "Honestly, that is the best way to eat your chicken nuggets, it's so crunchy … please try it.
