As of Monday (10/26/2020), Detroit McDonald’s locations only had one broken ice cream machine in Northwest Detroit. There seem to be more broken McFlurry machines in the suburbs – another wonderful reason to visit Detroit?

Rashiq Zahid built the Mcbroken app to map the status of ice cream machines, which oddly are centrally tracked by the McDonald’s corporation. The map and data have a wild story:

I reverse engineered mcdonald's internal api and I'm currently placing an order worth $18,752 every minute at every mcdonald's in the US to figure out which locations have a broken ice cream machine https://t.co/2KsRwAdrMd
