Australians call it "Mackers".
"Maccas". We think there's an "r" in there because of rhetocity, but there's not actually an "r".

Australians don't like to say R's at the end of words, unless they have no reason to whatsoever.

A story in today's USA Today:  "IHOP: Fake name change to IHOb to boost burger business was risk worth taking"

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2018/07/19/ihop-chose-fish-where-fish-find-non-breakfast-footing/796897002/

One of our fellow road enthusiast buddies was interviewed for this story.
