we give our verdict on the signature collection at mcdonald's. the classic – 100% british and irish beef, beechwood smoked bacon, cheddar cheese, wholegrain mustard mayo, ketchup, batavia lettuce and red onion all in a brioche bun. price: £4.79 calories: 698 kcal verdict: a good combination of texture and flavours. biting in, the first thing you notice is the thicker beef pattie used across the collection – and it’s really tasty. the distinctive wholegrain mustard is nicely offset by the sweetness of the ketchup making it an ideal snack for any meat lover. the bbq – 100% british and irish beef, smoky bbq sauce, coleslaw, batavia lettuce, beechwood smoked bacon, cheddar cheese and red onion, all in a brioche bum. price: £4.79 calories: 782 what we thought: we particularly liked the smokey bbq sauce, which was nicely complementing the beef pattie together with crunchy red onions . but it’s components – especially the coleslaw – do tend to slide in different directions making it very messy to eat, despite mcdonald’s careful packaging. the spicy – 100% british and irish beef, jalapeño slices, pepper jack cheese, batavia lettuce, spicy relish and mayo all in a brioche bun. price: £4.79 calories : 635 verdict: this was a favourite by far primarly due to its core ingredients jalapeño and spicy relish. the combination of beef and spices seemed quite innovative for mcdonald’s and nothing like we tasted at the burger joint before. juicy, spicy and fresh – the burger might just be one of the best value for money offer on the high street. diners won’t even need to eat with their fingers because they’ll even be given “diamond” encrusted cutlery to cut up their food, which will be served to them by white-gloved butlers. it will only be running as a two-day event on august 15 and 16. they claim that if it’s a success they will look at expanding the concept out for special calendar moments. nevertheless, if you want to get involved you can book online as of today and before august 15 – although if the gregg’s valentine’s day meal was anything to go by then you’ll want to get in there quick. the fast-food chain launched the signature collection premium burgers last year. latest food offers sweet deal tesco is selling hershey's chocolate syrup for £4 hot food stay cool in the heatwave with these foods – including soup and curry un-beer-lievable price of beer, gin and whisky to jump as weather sends barley cost soaring top chef what are joël robuchon's most famous recipes and best restaurants?

toiling away in stifling hot offices can leave many wondering – how high does the temperature need to go before it becomes too hot to work? but is it that simple? what are your rights when it comes to the maximum temperature in the workplace , and what should you do if you’re worried about your kids in the classroom? here’s what you need to know… while there’s no legal maximum temperature, employers have a duty under health and safety law to monitor working conditions alamy can you go home from work if your office is too hot? the tuc wants to make it illegal to keep people at work indoors if the temperature is above 30c, and put protection in place for people working outside or driving for a living. unfortunately, there isn’t a legally defined maximum or minimum temperature for offices yet. but your employer is responsible for “keeping the temperature at a comfortable level” and there are rules that could allow you to leave if the office is too hot. the tuc says: “when the workplace gets too hot it is more than just an issue about comfort. “if the temperature goes too high then it can become a health and safety issue. if people get too hot, they risk dizziness, fainting, or even heat cramps. “in very hot conditions the body’s blood temperature rises. if the blood temperature rises above 39c, there is a risk of heat stroke or collapse. delirium or confusion can occur above 41c. “blood temperatures at this level can prove fatal and even if a worker does recover, they may suffer irreparable organ damage.” what the tuc wants employers to do to keep work cool, the tuc would like to see employers: allow staff to adopt less formal attire – with jackets off, and casual lightweight clothes. ensure that outdoor workers have sunscreen and water and are given advice on the need to protect themselves from the heat and sun. distribute fans to staff and provide portable air cooling cabinets. allow flexible working so that staff can have the option of coming in earlier and staying later to avoid the sweltering conditions of the rush hour commute. allow staff to take frequent breaks and provide a ready supply of cool drinks. according to the hse: “a meaningful maximum figure cannot be given due to the high temperatures found in, for example, glass works or foundries.” the workplace (health, safety and welfare) regulations 1992, which lays down particular requirements for most aspects of the working environment, states that: “during working hours, the temperature in all workplaces inside buildings shall be reasonable.” the hse explains: “if a significant number of employees are complaining about thermal discomfort, your employer should carry out a risk assessment, and act on the results of that assessment.” if you’re a vulnerable employee – for example if you’re pregnant or are undergoing the menopause, or if you need to wear protective equipment at work so can’t take off layers – that also has to be taken into account. so the answer is simple – if you’re uncomfortable, tell your boss and if enough people complain then they have to act. can you go home in the hot weather if you work outside? the health and safety temperature laws only apply to “indoor workplaces” – so what if you work outside, in the agricultur
