My wife dragged me into one of those once. I thought it was just a dessert place. I was wrong. I had my man card revoked at the door for a Class A violation.
It took me nearly a month to get it back.

Have to agree. Thick and juicy and char-broiled is NOT White Castle.
It must be some other chain, but I can't imagine what. Sounds good, though. Like the way Wendy's USED to be about 10 years ago.
They were famous for juicy burgers. Now with Dave Thomas dead, and the health Nazis changing cooking times and fat content everywhere, their meat sucks. It's drier than Dairy Queen's and that's DRY.
Just today Financial Post posted an article with a “fast food hack” to get a cheaper Big Mac.
“Get a McDouble without ketchup and mustard. Instead, ask for lettuce and big mac sauce on it. You have an almost-Big Mac for around $1.39,” an employee writes.
Average price of a Big Mac in Phoenix: $4.17.
I’ll note that the Big Mac has sesame seeds on its bun, but a McDouble does not.
I’m not sure how healthy eating fast food on a regular basis is (way too salty and full of preservatives) but my one guilty fast food pleasure is the Egg McMuffin. When I am on the road and don’t have time to get a decent breakfast, I pull through the drive through for one or two of those with a cup of coffee. I think those are pretty good for you as they are made with real eggs. Just wish they had swiss cheese and bacon instead of that yellow “American cheese” and that circle of ham they call “Canadian bacon.”
How many people’s grandmother or mother’s made them McDonald Cheeseburgers?

Thank you, will make these for the family.
How about the foods that kept us from dying off as a species?
MEAT... beans.... rice.... wheat...
___________________________________________________________
I don’t know about beans but rice and wheat have only been around, maybe 10K years. That’s a second in the 2M year history of humans and pre-humans.
It was meat consumption that caused humans to evolve intellectually because it’s extremely nutritionally dense. It allowed humans to spend time on other things besides looking for more food.
Because it's feed corn to raise beef. Kernel, cob, leaves, stalk...everything.
Sorry, but anyone who thinks a McDonald’s double cheeseburger is the greatest food in human history has not spent any time eating in southern Italy.
The world is divided into two halves.
Places with McDonalds and places without.
Once you’ve been somewhere without them for a month you’ll understand.
Yeah, her mom wanted to know where the Jack in the Crack remark came from, and was not happy. Lauren was in the 5th grade when she made that remark. Mama was NOT happy that day.
Hahahaha, best answer of the day to a presumptuous post..
Sorry, but I've never been in one, so can you explain to me why this is so? Is it the decor? The menu? How it is presented? The clientele? Thanks.
Wendy’s is currently featuring the pretzel bun, bacon cheeseburger.
That sandwich is outstanding!!!!
No Jack in The Box???
Fer cryin' out loud, man. What on earth are you still doing there?
In N Out is overrated, in my opinion. It's a good, honest hamburger, made with fresh ingredients, but not really worth writing home about. I grew up in SoCal and have eaten at Jack in The Box and In N Out all my life.
I like 'em both. Viva La Difference'!
What? No “Pulp Fiction” reference yet?
How about a “Royal with Cheese”?
You know why they call it that?
I once had a guitar playing buddy who always called it that. Every time he said it, he'd look at us like he was delivering a punch line. No one ever laughed, but that didn't seem to stop him.
He always was a bit dense.
