New York CNN —McDonald’s has become notorious for its broken ice cream machines — there’s even an independent website that monitors broken McFlurry machines.
Wendy’s is selling small-sized, $1 Frosty frozen dairy desserts until September 30 — and it’s collaborating with McBroken, which reports which McDonald’s locations have broken ice cream machines.
Nearly 15% of McDonald’s ice cream machines are broken as of Thursday, according to McBroken’s data.
McBroken was created a few years ago by Rashiq Zahid, who was also frustrated by the lack of working ice cream machines at McDonald’s.
