One good rule of thumb is to not eat anything from a food service worker with whom you’ve just had an argument.
Potted meat. People around here can’t get enough of that stuff, they gobble it with sheer delight. I took one look at the ‘potted meat bin’ in the local chicken processing plant and thanked God I had never tried it before. The beef and pork elements in it are probably no better.
The funny thing is I probably have eaten much worse, it was just in a casing, grilled and called a sausage link.

I do enjoy their Junior Bacon Cheeseburger though
Here's a secret: The Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers are made from the unsold chili.
(Joking of course. They are pretty good).
lol
Scroll down to his homemade Schlotsky's recipe. I'm having one right now, yum! The only tweeking I've done is adding 1/4 C flour to the dough so it makes 6 buns, don't bother with cornmeal and use all purpose flour which is cheaper than bread flour. The genoa salami is eliminated because it's not sold here but it isn't missed taste-wise. I can make 5 sandwiches for the same cost as 1 Original 6" store bought sandwich. Actually, that was years ago prices so I bet that extra 6th sandwich could be added so 6 of the homemade version would equal 1 bought. The recipe is written more complicated than needed and is really so super simple.
Are these in Midland, Odessa or in one of the small towns around it?
That said, when I stop for lunch or dinner there, I am just glad to get a server that knows how to refill my iced tea.
“I rarely eat out anywhere because of filthy food handlers.”
Listen up, you rarely see the ones with yellow eyes, sweat, and diarrhea working in the back kitchen. But you can hear them farting, wheezing, coughing, blowing, hacking, and spitting on occasion. Maybe a puke every now and then, too.
Bon Appetit!
Hear, hear!
Does the board of health know? How about the FDA, USDA, et al?
Teeth to tatoos! I do the same though I rarely eat out anymore. Too few of one and too many of the other is a good indication how quickly your stomach will send you to the toilet. Add to that how long the hair and how greasy the hair is. Have you noticed now days they don’t wear hairnets?
I have tried several of his recipes and he is a “good cook”.
Of course when am able to produce a reasonable facsimile of the Schlotsky, McDonald, or others product at home, I feel liberated from the fast food joints and their prices. I can have it both ways, my way or theirs at my convenience.
I got rid of the wok years ago. A cast iron skillet does the job just fine.
I call it a Redneck wok.
The tv cooking shows have turned me off even more from eating out. All that sweat dripping into the food, ick. Admitting my kitchen wouldn’t pass an inspection but at least it’s my germs and I don’t drip sweat, dig in my butt or flick cig ashes into a dish.
Adding to my previous ick list is:
6) Hubby saw the owner of a mom and pop cafe slicing pies. Slice. Lick knife. Slice. Lick knife. Slice.
We did a series of two or three case studies on Wendy's in graduate school in the very late 1970s. One of them dealt with how Wendy's, at the time, could advertise that you would alway get a freshly cooked burger at a fast food restaurant.
The secret was that each Wendy's had an estimate of how many customers it would have by quarter-hour segments each day of the week. Burgers were tossed on the grill based on that estimate so that the approximate number of hot, fresh burgers were always ready.
Burger patties that sat out too long after cooking were used to make the chili.
If you go back through your memory, or old Wendy's ads, you'll note that Wendy's used to advertise that you got a quarter pound of meat in each serving of chili. Coincidentally, a burger patty weighed a quarter pound.
The chili recipe was based on collecting specific numbers of burger patties. I don't know how it works now, but I can tell you how it worked in a case study in the 1970s.
I kid you not.
This appears to have been created out of thin air, just ask some kids to say witty creative put downs about the job they don’t like.
This is one of those stories where I would like to have seen an effort to look into these outlandish claims and in some cases, meaningless observations, the meat looks “like hair gel” when it cools, stir the dehydrated bean mix until the “white” part of the larger pieces of pinto beans disappears.
“”The beans start out looking like cat food, and the directions are, ‘Add water and stir until you can’t see white anymore.’ The steak was just the worst on dish duty. If it would sit too long it would become like hair gel. It was the worst,’ he wrote.””
I use to work at Wendy’s and she’s telling the truth. Years ago, when they had a taco bar, they used hot water to revive the cheese sauce, refried beans, and the taco meet, up to several hours after it was put out.
I don’t think anyone doubts that Wendy’s takes unsold burger meat and uses it to make chili soup.
Not only does that make for a more flavorful chili than using fresh cooked, it adds to the profitability of each store.
And I don’t see a problem with that.
