(MSN) The classic Big Mac has had a makeover to compete with restaurant chains that many consumers are loving more than McDonald’s.

The fast food giant made more than 50 changes to its burgers and have been working on improving the Big Mac since 2016.

Big Mac changes include two smaller cooked all-beef patties, more special sauce, and fresher lettuce, cheese and pickles.

The burger buns will continue to be round and buttery, but the sesame seeds will also be scattered to create a more homemade look.

The revamped Big Mac will help McDonald’s take on the popular restaurant chain Five Guys, which is known for its popular burgers, hot dogs, and french fries.

All of the Big Mac changes are happening after McDonald’s only ranked 13th among US chains with customers calling their burgers desirable earlier this year.

The ranking was based on a survey with 49,000 consumers conducted by Technomic market research firm, with only 28 percent of participants saying the crave McDonald’s burgers.

A TikTok user – spoofing popular food reviewer Keith Lee – even posted a video last month to show people why McDonald’s burgers taste like ‘a cereal box with ketchup on it.’

He took a bite of a napkin after swallowing the bite he took of the sad and cereal-like McDonald’s burger, and said they both tasted the same.

The burger was not good enough to for @youfilmme.tv to keep eating, and he ended up throwing it out the window as fast as he could.
