Crispy bacon with grape jelly is one of my favorites.
If somebody incorporated the two into a donut I'd try a dozen.
Yet, somehow I found it pithy and relevant. Go figure!
i hate this. i think our local boston market quit selling ham becasue of muslims. i noticed they weren’t selling it and when i asked, he said they would sell it only after six. well needless to say there were a number of muslim employees and they quit selling it alltogether.
If they would just add liquor and ammunition, it would be perfect.
Close, but not quite.
I don't know about any more but you could used to.
I went into a McDonalds in Japan and could NOT get a Big Mac.
They weren't even on the menu.
I don’t want to be insensitive, but I just don’t get the pork thing. If we don’t eat them what the hell do we do with pigs.Even the Vietnamese pot belly ones get to big for pets.And if God didn’t want us to eat them why make a ham sandwich or ribs taste so good. Some body answer me that.
Different countries have different menus. Within a given market, franchises push consistency.
Adding green chili to the menu (I think it was McD's) in the Southwest, was a huge coup for the local franchises.
.....THEY found ways to manage....
I once went on a boat trip to an island in the Chesapeke bay where there was an inn serving a “homestyle lunch” There were two Jewish women across the table from us. The wait staff brought huge bowls of paotato salad, hush puppies and other stuff including a tray of thick sugar cured ham slices.
The ladies weren’t very comfortable with the ham but since the promised sea food didn’t appear, groused about no sea food and only ham for their $$$.
They ate the ham whereupon, massive platters of shrimp, crab cakes, fried fish and clam fritters appeared.
The contract of the franchise dictates what is allowed. You can't buy a McDonald's and turn it into a taco stand. That is done to protect the franchise as a whole.
On this link you can see the glory that is the maple bacon doughnut.

I agree, that was my point.
Mickey Ds doesn't ALWAYS serve Big Macs.
Depends on where you are.
Excellent point - why isn't this being shouted from the housetops!
Once again, freepers stating the unstated obvious...
Thanks!
Carry around a snack bag of pork rinds and *drop* one nearby.
Oops! It just fell out of my pocket/purse.
Or if a terrorist holds someone hostage, pull out the bag and warn them, *Don’t move! It’s loaded,*
How the heck do they know that the person who touched something before them didn’t have pork grease on their hands and forget to wash their hands.
Ahhhh. Tim Hortons. The BEST donuts ever. Rumor has it they ran Krispy Kreme out of business in Canada.
I’d make it well known that I wouldn’t be giving them my business and why.
I doubt the government will consider licensure of donut vendors, but who knows...
No wonder I love BBQ ribs so much! The more pork I eat, the more electricity, civility, freedom, etc we get huh? Neat! LOL
Reminds me of the old Mitch Hedberg line:
Every McDonald's commercial ends the same way: "Prices and participation may vary." I wanna open a McDonald's and not participate in anything. I wanna be a stubborn McDonald's owner. "Cheeseburgers? Nope! We got spaghetti . . . and blankets."
Speaking of bbq, I am putting the pork on slow-cook at the crack of dawn tomorrow to surprise the missus with pulled pork for dinner tomorrow.
