where are those "facts" from, gear?

― Tracey Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 8 May 2006 16:06 (twenty years ago)

internet!

The IRA and the heroin stories are the best.

The seaweed thing is no secret. It's a common additive to ice cream as well.

The rest seem dubious. I mean, what sort of dumb ass junkie prepares a needle full of smack then leaves it in a ball pit?

Not to defend the horriblness of MacDonalds and their bland, artificial muck. I
do occassionally succumb admittedly. There's a McDonalds right next to my work and if I'm on a late shift and haven't brought my own food and nowhere else is open what else can I do? It does leave a weird feeling though. Something about that processed plastic cheese that makes my head feel all plastic and shiny. Must be the MSG.

key to mcd/BK/wendys is, at least for me, dont load up on it. the whopper jr and jr CB deluxe are great great snacks. you satisfy that foul craving for shit burgers while not feeling sick afterwards. also, eatin anything more than a "small" order of fries at these places is literally nauseating. i'm convinced that it was mostly the fries (and super humungous cokes) that caused that guy's problems in "supersize me".

Everyone should sell breakfast all day long. That's a sign of a quality eatery.

― Abbott (Abbott), Monday, 8 May 2006 17:03 (twenty years ago)

you dont know how right you are.

― AaronK (AaronK), Monday, 8 May 2006 17:06 (twenty years ago)

Sometimes I like a full fry-up for my evening meal. You're right, why should it be confined to morning?

― Rumpsy Pumpsy (Rumpie), Monday, 8 May 2006 17:13 (twenty years ago)

I don't consider it food. There are other fast food options that are edible and satisfying without making one feel ill, so I'll go for those in a pinch. Sonic has killer drinks. Arby's is using all natural chicken.

McDonald's Considering Selling Breakfast All Day Long

IT TOOK THEM FIFTY YEARS TO FIGURE THAT ONE OUT?

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Thursday, 21 September 2006 19:50 (nineteen years ago)

i've eaten my share of "five minutes too late double cheeseburgers" no more forever

― laurence kansas (lawrence kansas), Thursday, 21 September 2006 19:59 (nineteen years ago)

XPOST: If they do that I'll never buy a burger again.

― Squirrel_Police (Squirrel_Police), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:06 (nineteen years ago)

I don't think I've had Mickey D's in at least 10 years. nastiest shit ever. the only fast-food franchise I'm even mildly enthusiastic about eating at is In-n-Out, and that's not even national.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:13 (nineteen years ago)

very very edible!

this is "good" news

― geoff (gcannon), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:15 (nineteen years ago)

I love the breakfast sausage!!!!!

― rock u like a § (ex machina), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:19 (nineteen years ago)

I only eat breakfast food there anymore.

― deej.. (deej..), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:26 (nineteen years ago)

hmm i said that badly. uh, i only eat breakfast food when i happen to be eating there.

― deej.. (deej..), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:26 (nineteen years ago)

i'm a breakfast burrito man myself

― geoff (gcannon), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:26 (nineteen years ago)

altho the McD's menu in India was a thing of wonder to behold.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

nastiest shit ever.

this has probably been said a billion times before, but Shakey OTM Collier

― Space Gourmand (Haberdager), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:28 (nineteen years ago)

not quite a billion

― geoff (gcannon), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:29 (nineteen years ago)

he's trying to buy us off now.

― mr. brojangles (sanskrit), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:30 (nineteen years ago)

hmm usually people call me either a "fucking dumbshit" or (my personal favorite so far) "a 12-year-old girl"

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:35 (nineteen years ago)

I only eat there once or twice a year, but that breakfast shit is like penicillin for hangovers.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:41 (nineteen years ago)

I hit McD's about once a month now, down from once a week.

Shakey, what was on the menu in India?

― Danny Aioli (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 21 September 2006 21:01 (nineteen years ago)

Paneer Salsa wrap, McAloo Tiki, etc.

I didn't mean it along the lines of 'OMG Shakey MC is praised so much because he is always so right' *cocksuck* but more along the lines of 'that's an amusing way of putting Shakey Mo Collier OTM, but I bet I'm not the first to do it like that' *exaggerate*.

― Space Gourmand (Haberdager), Thursday, 21 September 2006 21:04 (nineteen years ago)

Goddammit Louis, couldn't you just lurk for six months or so to see how grownups interact?

― Danny Aioli (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 21 September 2006 21:07 (nineteen years ago)

McAloo Tiki and Pizza McPuff sound like cartoon character names.

Disappointingly, McDonald's India looks perhaps even worse than the American version. The dry pea patty. That horrible pizza hot pocket thing....

― paulhw (paulhw), Thursday, 21 September 2006 21:35 (nineteen years ago)

one assumes that the only thing it shares in common with other McDonalds' of the world is the mysterious Ingredient X. In all other respects, the menu bears little to no resemblance to actual food either Indian or American.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 21 September 2006 21:38 (nineteen years ago)

when i worked in London they were testing out Indian Pakistani? Bangladeshi? things on the UK menu.

Chicken McTikka Naan = super classic
Mint Lamb Korma = yuck dud

― mr. brojangles (sanskrit), Friday, 22 September 2006 00:50 (nineteen years ago)

I've just been comparing the ingredient lists between US and AU Maccas. Its horrifying. You poor bastards have all these weird chemicals and high fructose corn syrup and nasty hydrogenated oils in your gear. I mean our McDs is shit too, but blimey.

― Trayce (trayce), Friday, 22 September 2006 00:50 (nineteen years ago)

that was an html attempt at striking through "Indian"

― mr. brojangles (sanskrit), Friday, 22 September 2006 00:51 (nineteen years ago)

very edible. "digestible" is another story. good for you, of course not.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Friday, 22 September 2006 01:42 (nineteen years ago)

i could talk about the chicken nuggets all day, compose symphonies for the fries, dedicate poetry to the egg mcmuffin...

― disappointing goth fest line-up (orion), Friday, 22 September 2006 01:45 (nineteen years ago)

The bacon egg & cheese biscuit tastes like heaven, but always makes me feel like hell. Not even an immediate tooth-brushing can erase the greasy leftovers from my tastebuds.

Nothing else there is even remotely edible.

― milo z (mlp), Friday, 22 September 2006 01:59 (nineteen years ago)

There's really a unique kind of stomach-sickness that McDonald's beef gives you. It's not just that normal hamburger "I have a brick in my stomach" feeling - it's more like "I have still wet cement in my digestive system and it's beginning to harden and block off my intestines"

― A-ron Hubbard (Hurting), Friday, 22 September 2006 02:01 (nineteen years ago)

That's exactly the feeling that poutine gives me. I wish Big Macs did the same, but unfortunately we make a date every so often.

eating a McGriddle is like swallowing a suicidal teenager's cry for help

― bernard snow (sixteen sergeants), Friday, 22 September 2006 02:11 (nineteen years ago)

I never eat their breakfast. There's Hardee's for that kind of tasty self-abuse.

― The Bearnaise-Stain Bears (Rock Hardy), Friday, 22 September 2006 02:18 (nineteen years ago)

Last time I had McDonald's was last year in Sweden. It tasted...fresher?...than US McD's food. Still - that was the last time and only out of necessity (on the road travelling and no other food venues in sight).

― Jay Vee's Return (Manon_69), Friday, 22 September 2006 03:20 (nineteen years ago)

McD's should just McGriddlize everything by stamping their corporate logo in it, and give you the "breakfast" option for all burgers by topping the burger w/margarine + syrup. Then they wouldn't have to worry about two different menus.

― Abbott (Abbott), Friday, 22 September 2006 03:52 (nineteen years ago)

mcdonald's hash browns + sausage biscuit + ORANGE JUICE = my ideal breakfast, pretty much.

― J.D. (Justyn Dillingham), Friday, 22 September 2006 05:18 (nineteen years ago)

the heck is a sausage biscuit? i don't understand this crazy terminology

― electric sound of jim [and why not] (electricsound), Friday, 22 September 2006 05:22 (nineteen years ago)

it's a sausage patty placed between two slices of - well, biscuit. now that i'm describing it it does sound pretty weird but it's GREAT!

― J.D. (Justyn Dillingham), Friday, 22 September 2006 05:24 (nineteen years ago)

why is their o.j. so good? also, coffee. the rest blows. chicken fries > mcnuggets.

― fauxhemian (fauxhemian), Friday, 22 September 2006 05:35 (nineteen years ago)

must try this sausage biscuit.

― fauxhemian (fauxhemian), Friday, 22 September 2006 05:35 (nineteen years ago)
