Oh, yes ... forgot about the tomato slices. I don't remember the 'shrooms. Maybe it's a regional thing. And don't let that brown cylindrical thing fool ya. It's not Jimmy Dean.

[CJ Wolf]

Not on "obesity prevention" grounds, but because their "food" tastes *awful*! A good example - the 10,000 degree plasma wrapped in pastry called the "McDonalds Hot Apple Pie".

On that note, they should ban British food too. It tastes awful and causes rotten teeth and insanity.

[FostersExport]

So burn it off with some exercise.

[Spktyr]

No argument there....

[Cecily]

Okay, but why isn't Prince Chuck denouncing the traditional English breakfast and fish and chips instead of McD's?

[alrea]

Many countries banned(decapitated) Royal Families long ago. His country now has a smaller military than 25 countries. His days are indeed numbered.

[FostersExport]

Cos he's an idiot :o)

I don't think fish and chips and full breakfasts are as bad for you, pound for pound, as a McDonalds, but I won't labour the point as I'm not going to back Charlie's dumb statement.

[DustyMoment]

Charles is why royal inbreeding should be stopped.

[SF Republican]

Thank you for your insight. The same was said about banning smoking in California restaurants and offices too.

" A good example - the 10,000 degree plasma wrapped in pastry called the "McDonalds Hot Apple Pie".

Hey! That's the only good thing at Mac Donalds.

I had an SOS steak sandwhich (with extra bacon) at subway for dinner last night.
Good stuff, I should have bought two.

between the trots, untrained migrants and TB; Hubby is a wise Man. For at least the past 10-years...
...as for Chuckie, he needs to order serious carry-out from Soho that will haul the ashes...

English breakfast:

That looks NASTY!!!

They used to have a good apple pie. It resembled the rectangular isze and shape of a "hot pocket". I guess you could say it was a "hot pocket", The outer crust was thin, and the apple filling was plentiful and HOT. Now the crust is thick and there is less apple filline, and lukewarm.

Helen, the burger Queen

That picture should be in the Yiddish dictionary next to the word "treif."

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

First of all, I don't accept the concept of "royalty". Enough of this King, Queen, Prince and Princess garbage!
Secondly, if he had to get a job and work like the rest of people he wouldn't be saying stupid things like that.

[Alouette]

You could make the same exact thing using only kosher smoked turkey, and it would still be NASTY.

[colorado tanker]

Typical aristocratic paternalism. Most of Charles' attitudes reflect old British upper class prejudices.

[ArrogantBustard]

Nasty? Ever tried it? Aside from that cylindrical thing, it's quite good.

[Charles Martel]

Breakfast. When I was over there, breakfast consisted of fried eggs, toast, fried toast, fried potatoes, BBQ beans, bacon, and some sort of white thing that looked like a sausage but had absolutely NO flavour.

Hmm... I wonder how the BBQ beans ever got on a breakfast menu in the U.K. An acceptable contribution from the Colonies, perhaps? Betcha Charles urges them to ban the little plug of pork fat that's usually floating in the can, don't you think?
