I checked, just for you. You can pick the hamburger happy meal and add cheese.

Where are you located? I am in the US. I downloaded and logged into the App again (just in case something changed) and I see no option to add cheese to a hamburger happy meal. I can pick a hamburger meal and “customize”, and add everything else – even a second hamburger patty if I wanted – but no cheese.

Maybe it’s just with my local McD?

Massachusetts. Adding cheese is there for the two McD’s near me.

Weird. I don’t see that “American Cheese” line at all. Maybe it’s a NY thing.

I see cheese in Buffalo and Rochester, but not in Albany. It’s more localized than NY.

Interesting. I will have to do some more experiments later to see where they will let me order that. Thanks for confirming it’s not just me, though. I wa suspicious that there was some sort of cheesy conspiracy going on.

Checking in from Iowa and I have the option here too when I hit the customize button. I do have to scroll down a bit?

You might try uninstalling and reinstalling. If on android, clear your settings before the uninstall. The mcdee app does tend to be kind of unpredictable.

If that doesn’t work, send an email to them. I actually did email on some problem I had and they responded pretty quick with a temp workaround and fixed it later.
