[And some people like McDonald’s hamburgers.

I think those who think McDonald’s has great hamburgers, probably have never had a real burger, cooked properly.]


It’s not the greatest burger, but for the price, it’s reasonable, fresh, clean and fast. Burger King is better tasting, but it’s definitely not freshly-cooked. You can make or order a better burger, but the first takes time, and the second is way more expensive than Mickey D’s.

Trust me, after a week in China trying to find something to eat that’s not moving a McDonalds angus burger looks like a gift from Heaven.

Only place in America I’ve seen where morbidly obese folks are uncommon is higher altitudes where metabolism burns it off

Folks of lower income don’t have any shame being huge anymore

Black women are 90% fat as hell

It’s ridiculous

Europe is fatter too btw

I prefer McDonald’s it exotic locations too. They have (I hope so) some universal sanitary standards and you always know what exactly you get.

FYI Fish Filets hardly sell and most sit in their ice box till they get freezer burn.

Subway did well when they had the $5 foot long then once they got rid of that promotion only the gas station & Walmart Subway locations remain where I live.

You are what you eat. Eat trans fat and I can tell.

I look at labels for Trans Fat, Cholesterol, and Total Fat >Per Container< before I buy. I usually end up walking out with very few things at the store. Grab any turkey dinner with greens it’s the safest bet.

In the 60s, they did have good hamburgers. BK was good too.
Haven’t been to either in 20+ years .

Yep. Used to be good. Now pukey crap. They’ve destroyed the brand. The colonel would kick their asses if he were still alive.

Thank God they aren’t using red meat...

That would really be unhealthy.

>>Today it sucks. Greasy almost meatless pieces, dry and the coating is just salty garbage. The gravy? Yuck.

+1 to that. My Dad ran a KFC franchise when I was a kid and he absolutely perfected the process from the chicken to the coleslaw. Today I wont go to a KFC and its sad. They buy the chicken by the pound and sell it by the piece. Obviously some marketing geniuses at some point decided to screw the customers. And they think they’re going to attract business with donuts? Crazy.

Way back when I was 17 I worked over the summer as a cook at a Queens NY Kentucky Fried Chicken (as it was called back then). The chicken was high quality, we only had one variety (original recipe) and the gravy wasn’t canned - I made it myself; an important ingredient was the tasty bits of fried chicken coatings.

We’re taking late 60’s.

My chicken was good. Of course, Colonel Sanders was still alive, and PepsiCo (the current owner) was an early-90’s acquisition.

Today’s KFC is a bastardized offspring.

Regular McDonald’s hamburgers are actually decent for a quick road meal. I’ll get three to go with an Iced Tea and I’m set.

Talk about legal ‘substance abuse’. Gives me a pit in the stomach just reading about that fried grease ball intestinal assault. Nope___

Dip the fried chicken donut sammich in chocolate and add bacon and they might have a winner.
