When I first started this website, you didn’t know what new burger was going to be available at McDonald’s until the day of release. And media and other lifestyle outlets rarely reported on the next LTO.If you don’t believe me, just “Google” Great Tastes of America 2013 or 2012 or before and compare that to nowadays.Very few websites were interested in the new promotion(s) at The Golden Arches and trying to find out limited time burgers prior to 2012 is nigh impossible.This very website changed that game.

xp McDonalds meat has got to be the worst of any fast food chain right? It has that "time to bribe the health inspector to look the other way" grey-brown shade.

I think, at least in the UK, it's probably healthier/safer than a lot of shady burger joints, because it has to be and because they have the size of business that they can afford to use reputable farms for their beef - I know they have brochures explaining the quality of their meat in UK branches, and I can't imagine they're willing to risk a horsemeat/BSE-type scandal. But that doesn't mean it tastes great or is well-cooked, by any means.

[for me, there are few pleasures as guilty as a good/bad kebab shop burger, cooked on the coal griddle, but I'm also pretty sure I'm risking poisoning with every bite, and indeed one ruined the Xmas of 2001 for me, so I know whereof I speak there]

In France McDo burgers taste pretty good! In the USA I got sick off them enough to swear off them, but here they’re a real treat.

I have them pretty rarely now, having regarded them as the pinnacle of quisine when I was a kid, but I like the saltiness of the cheese in a double cheeseburger, though the quarter pounders are often dry and disappointing. If I have one now it's usually in the company of my daughter, on a road trip, and it's a fun experience for that reason. Though back when I was still able to work in offices, I'd often grab a sausage McMuffin on a Friday, which was very much a treat.

After a brief hiatus from menus due to Taco Bell's menu simplification efforts last year, Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes and the Spicy Potato Soft Taco will be back starting March 11. Taco Bell is also teaming up with Beyond Meat to create an innovative new plant-based protein that will be tested in the next year. Taco Bell chose to team up with Beyond Meat as a category leader with a proven track record of attracting younger customers with its irresistibly delicious plant-based offerings. Although Taco Bell has long been a destination for vegetarians, this will be the brand's first foray into plant-based meat in the U.S."The return of our beloved potatoes is just the first step in showing our fans the strong continued commitment to vegetarian we are making this year," said Liz Matthews, Taco Bell's Global Chief Food Innovation Officer. "We have long been a leader in the vegetarian space, but this year, we have more meatless options in store that vegetarians, veggie-curious and even meat-eaters will love."

Taco Bell “beef”
Vegetarian isn't just a trend for Taco Bell. The brand has had meatless menu items like the bean burrito for many yearslol
― All cars are bad (Euler), Thursday, 14 January 2021 21:48 (three years ago) link
Was vegetarian for many years and TB was absolutely the best of the big fast food chains because you can sub beans on everything, which tastes better than the beef anyway

Quorn is just okay, tho-- I am not a vegetarian currently, but having been a vegan for a few years and worked in a natural foods grocery for a while, the idea of fungus based food is really good...it's just that it isn't being done particularly well at present, partly because so many of the products are centered around making something 'like meat.' Veggie products should quit that imitation meat strategy and just make things that taste good...

i keep getting ads for the digiorno pizza with a croissant crust and goddamn if don't want to try it
― na (NA), Friday, 29 January 2021 21:41 (three years ago) link
we tried it, it was not much to write home about tbh. :( like it just seemed like a regular crust but maybe more buttery. if there's a great version of it, it might be much more sensitive to oven temperature/cook time than the trusty basic frozen pizza crust. anyway it was not worth the price bump over digiorno's basic offering.

I used to eat a ton of Quorn when I was a vegetarian. I tried it again recently and it was much worse than I remembered.
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Saturday, 30 January 2021 02:40 (three years ago) link
Yeah, most of the veggie or fungus based 'alternative meat' products are only 'good' to vegetarians because they've either never had the real thing or have forgotten what the real thing tastes like.
And I say that as someone who eats vegetarian about 70% of my meals.
