The Bash McDonald's Thread

See, regarding normal food, McDonald's french fried "don't decompose".

There's a major difference between a home-made frie decomposing fter a month and a McDonald's frie still having not decomposed after 18 years.

Semantics and split hairs aside, you (general) know what I mean.

It's because of their anaerobic environment - just like a fruit cake.

Two million yrs of experience will do that to a body. ;-D I found the FF during the summer 9 yrs ago. I know exactly when my aunt entered the nursing home because one of my grandchildren was born the next day.

I look for things in my personal environment to check the effect of things going on in the world. Banking is on the minds of many of my friends right now because the two most popular banks made changes. The older people are upset about the changes in CD fees and my young adult grandkids are upset over checking and debit fee changes. I live in an area where there are Tea party meets a lot and Ron Paul has a good following. We have had two OWS events already.

And when the election really gets going I will be doing my 'polling in the pool'. I attend water aerobics classes all over my area (go to wherever one meets when I have the time). As a result, I get quite a bit of exposure to a variety of people. I've correctly predicted the outcome of the last four prez elections by 'polling in the pool'.

can't fit in their doorways, eh?

too bad





when you criticize greasy mac while citing a desire for arby's, you need to realize that kills any credibility you may have had coming into the thread
 
Lately I've become a fan of Chik Fil-A. Good food, fresh veggies, young attractive employees always being pleasant, and they even hire landscapers and build a waterfall at the one here.

If only the owners religiousity didn't prevent me from having it on Sundays.

Unless they have changed the way they do things? They bring in full beef to cook in ovens ever morn. around 6 AM. You are getting real roast beef as they slice it as they go.

I love Arbys:)

you omitted my favorite: rice noodles
Tomoshiraga Somen

asian food is so easy to prepare, it's a shame to buy the prepackaged stuff
rice/noodles, most any vegetables, some meat, five spice powder, soy and a (steel) wok and you can make LOTS of great meals

add favorite herbs/spices, a bottle mirin and one of fish sauce and you exponentially expand the potential array of wonderful dishes

a rice maker only makes it easier

with those few items you can eat far better for the same expense of pre-packaged

I do not eat instant noodles out of laziness or inability to cook. I can cook and I am not lazy when it comes to cooking. I eat instant noodles because I love the taste of them. Just like I love the taste of almost any fast food burger just as much as I love the taste of any restaurant /burger stand or home made burger. It mostly depends on what I am in the mood for.

Some of these are my favorite easy Asian recipes.

This recipe works with ground pork or a very bland pork sausage.

As far as most people are concerned you live only once so you might as well enjoy life as much as possible. To some people that means eating food they love, to others it means sky diving or some other crazy ****,some its traveling and some its a combination of those or other things.

Ahh. OK. Here they just have the Value Menu but have noticed they went up on the prices on the Value Menu on somethings. Example is they used to have their Jr. Bacon Cheddar Melt for .99. Now it like $1.29 or something like that. Same w/ Jr Cheddar melt it is now $1.09.

I can still get the Jr. Roast Beef, Jr Ham and Swiss, small Mocha Shake,turnovers, etc. for $1. Oh now that I am thinking about it? They changed their value pot. cakes and up the price 10 cents too.

I just usually get a Reg. Roast beef w/cheddar. pot. cakes with a small cup of cheddar to dip into. and a Shake:)

BTW, they did do a sale a while back where you could get 2 Beef & Cheddar for $5 and I so was all over that:shock::2razz:

I for one love Burger King, and their hot fries & onion rings. All of their burgers are the best, imho.

It's been 9 months. I'm craving at least a little fast food.
 
I'll slit throats for some General Tsao chicken. Every time I hit the local Chinese buffet, I get me a to-go styrofoam container and jam-pack that thing with GT chicken. Throw in some sauteed mushrooms, beef and broccoli, and that meat-on-a-stick stuff and that's lunch AND dinner for me.
 
ı suggest you go to the restaurants in which local meals and handmade meals are servep up..more healthy and more cool.
 
Chinese restuarants are awesome. However, Japanese sushi, namely Nigiri with Gari is the kind of food I prefer. Would like to try some Toro---fatty tuna---sushi in the future.
 
ı usually like grilled fishes green vegetables spicy chickens.
 
I've had sushi twice before. Once I liked it, once I didn't. The first time was from my boss a long time ago. She lived a couple years in Tokyo and learned how to do it out there. She made some homemade sushi and brought it in to work one day. I figured what the hell, and tried it. Was okay. Didn't love it, didn't hate it.

The second time was at a Chinese restaurant that had a sushi tray and Mongolian BBQ in back. That stuff was awful.
