if you ever have an unusual desire to eat that shit, here is the advice my friend who works there gave me.

DO NOT EAT
Quarter Pounders
Chicken Nuggets
Both are left for ages in greese and are greese loaded

Slightly better
Big Macs - No Ghurkins or Sauce
Chicken Nuggets

I usually order the Big Mac meal or the fish sandwich meal. If I am feeling especially hungry I will splurge on a hot fudge sunday.

I like quarter pounders and especially big macs. Although I have to say, their nuggets are nothing compared to Wendy's.

The double quarter pounder with cheese is the only viable option.

"Do not eat chicken nuggest" and then you say slightly better:" chicked nuggets". I'm confused now, should I eat them or not?

I really don't like the burgers at McDonalds or Burger King, they're too wet and small. The less widespread restaurants, like Maliks if you live in Norway, have the best burgers. Actually, pretty much all restaurants or cafés have relatively good burgers, and much better than McDonalds.

Yeah, standardization is the theory, but it never quite works out that way in application (like communism, LOL).

Fries here are usually really hot (not having sat around), crisp outside and soft inside, and full of flavor(salt, LOL).

Here is a good tip (gluttonous, but good!): Next time you are at any burger joint, get some salty fries and a milkshake (any flavor OK). Dip the fries in the shake.

Trust me.

I don't know. I guess because our "chips" are the bags of pre-fried potato-chips that you buy in a grocery store, they are very thin and not hot, of course. they are, like, he #1 snack food here in the states.

I'm sure that fore some reason, fried potatoes n the states ended up being shortened to "fries".

Capitalist Imperial
25th January 2003, 17:13
Yeah, exactly. You call french fries "Chips". ANd you call Potato Chips "Crisps".

In the States, whenever potato chips are flavored with salt and vinegar (we have many different flavors here), there is usually a British Flag on the bag, because of your penchant for malt vinegar.

I love salt and vinegar flavored chips!!!

Ohhhhh, aren't we soooo quaint. Your fast food chains are a disgrace to chips, they are mean to be lovely fried chunky pieces of potato, flavoured with a little dashing of salt and a sprinkling of malt vinegar with maybe some mayonnaise or Heinz tomato ketchup wrapped inside newspaper to keep them nice and warm from the blusterly sea breeze.. Not like your fatty fried pieces of compressed potato powder that you get in a crappy piece of cardboard saturated with grease and vinegar. Phhhh!

OH, I agree.

I'm sure that a legitimate British fish n' chips house has wonderful chips much better than fast food fries (I mean, you are famous for your fish and chips!), and I love fried fish with tartar sauce!! (In alaska, we use halibut, and I think that it is even better than cod, which is already good!)

But also, there are plenty of legitimate American resturaunts that serve very good fried potatoes.

As for dipping them in mayonaise, we usually don't do that here. Maybe I'll try it.

Capitalist Imperial
25th January 2003, 17:49

I like Kebab Ye's kebabs and their burgers are pretty great too, unfortunately there's only one in the whole world and that's in my home town.

There is actually a difference between "fries" and "chips", "fries" were originally mashed potato which had been squirted into fat and fried so were consiquentally much thinner than the "chips" which were merely potato cut up and fried. The thinner style is more common in America and the thicker style is more common in Britain.

"Chips" is sometimes used to describe what we would normally call "crisps." Some expensive and American imported varieties of crisps are marketed as "chips" such as "Kettle Chips", which I must say are rather quite exquisite, even though i'm not meant to eat them too often, I still do.

The fish and chip shop in new york (yes there is one) still sells them in newspaper.

Yeah, you should go to a regular stand-alone (not fast-food) resuraunt when you are in the States. The food is much better, varied, and of higher quality. The fries are real potato, too.

BTW: "In n' Out Burger" is one fast food place that has fries cut fresh directly from whole potatoes (but they are only in California).

Moskitto
25th January 2003, 18:10

That's why they put so much on them, in Belgium we went to a pizza hut (being at a restaurant where you can't read the menu is funny) and i didn't have a massive appetite so i put lots of salt on it and i ate all of it cos every bite just made me hungry.

Again, its good to try to find an individual "mom-and-pop"(as they are called in the states) resturaunt, not a chain (except round table pizza, they are really good).

I like my pizza with a little sharp cheddar on top of the mozzarela, you can't beat sharp cheddar. Then pepperoni, sausage, roasted garlic, mushrooms, and olives, then a little parmesian and tabasco sauce.

It almost makes me want to cry.

America's take on chinese food is without a doubt the best part of American cuisine. I have been to an authentic chinese restauraunt once and found it wasnt much like the typical american chinese place. However i love the heavily meat cuisine of the typical chinese place here, mongolian pepper steak and beef with vegetables are quite possibly the greatest delecacys made. Love or hate America but noone can deny it has some of the best damned food on this earth. I live near some amish communities and amish food is un damned beleivable for anyone who drives through northern indiana dont miss the Essenhaus in goshen that place is the shit. Also authentic German is damned good to, veal and fried potatoes is delicious, most of my favorite dishes are foreign ethnic influenced so it be unfair to give america all the credit, but with a melting pot society we get the best from all cultures i like that.

Yeah, I've seen authentic italian pizza on cooking shows. It's usually much simpler, more rustic, just dough, some tomato sauce, mozzerella, a little basil and some olive oil. It looks good!

America tends to use more and varied cheeses, and more toppings, especially meat-based.

That is actually a very good question. Much of our food, while original in its interpretation, is not really our invention fundamentally. Pizza is a good example of this.

Hot dogs are pretty original. The bun was our idea, but the meat is a descendant of the frankfurter.

I think the hamburger/cheeseburger is probably the most authentic American ethnic food.

From what I understand, spaghetti was actually invented here, not italy.

Maybe Ice cream.

Yes, I knew that the name hamburger came from hamburg, germany, but I believe it was more of just a meatball cooked wit onions.

As I earned it, an american grill cook was in a hurry, and trying to cook one of these meatballs faster , and thus smashed it down with his spautula, yielding the more familiar patty. At some point, someone started using the bun to make it more edible while on the go.

Anyway, with certain foods it is difficult to place a finger on its true origins, as foods really evolves over time.

yes, thats true. I didn't even think about that because it is more of a cooking technique than an actual food.

Do europeans really associate Barbecues with australia more than the US? Interesting.

I wonder if Aussie barbecues usually employ the sweet, honey and brown sugar based barbecue sauces that are popular with american barbecuing.

Anyway, yes, barbecuing is definatelty an american original.

I don't know why ausstralians are associated with the barbeque. It was probably a Fosters ad:

"Hello, I'm havin' a Fosters and Mike's just taken a kangaroo of the bar-be."

And then they have some competition where they have to use anal propolsion to direct a 10p coin into a beer bottle.

yep, it's indoctrinated into young children from the age of about 5 that "barbecues are Australian," and most go on believing this for the rest of their lives, and think they look really clever that they know that barcecues are Australian, but anyone who has ever bought any spices or sauces realises this is horse shit because why to Schwarz (a herb and spice company) sell "American Barbecue Seasoning".

The same thing happens where most people think they're really clever by saying "The death penalty is still available for treason in the UK", in reality, the death penalty was totally abolished for all crimes (including teason) in 1997.

I, happyguy, hereby call upon all my fellow leftists, and peoples of the world, to from this day forth boycott all McDonalds, Burger King, Wendys, KFC and any other fast food chains that can be thought of or are located in your local area. Good luck to all of you, comrades.

Not at all. I hate the food in McDonalds and all fast food, it tastes like cardboard, I know that it has been stored unhygenically and the only thing that has any taste is The Gherkin, which I can get a whole jar of for the same price. mmm, lovely gherkins. I hate McDonalds and everything it stands for.

Don't worry Dark Capitalist. These leftists lack the strength of character, and conviction to actually go through with a boycott. One long day in the wilderness and they would flock to the nearest Mcdonald's to assuage their hunger. Should we expect more from a bunch of panty waists, like the socialists who post here? I don't think so. I was 100% right when I described them as yellow-bellies.

I decided to stop eating from fast food joints when I became quite ill one night from some KFC.

What to eat at McDonalds? - Nothing
Hunger Strike it.

The story of Colonel Sanders goes like this:

Once Colonel Sanders was in the US army. He hated it and would do anything to get out. Yet he had no idea of what to do for money if he left. He was also renouned for being a bit of a coward. Whilst on active service in Vietnam, he heard a noise in the bushes up ahead. He send his men to go and take a look whilst he "kept guard". As the men ran in one of them shouted "YOU STINKIN' ROTTEN CHICKEN!"
"Hmmm," he thought to himself, "that gives me an idea."

From a nutritional viewpoint, McD's burgers hardly constitute healthy meals. And judging from its recent quarterly losses, not a few people think so, too.

Studying consumer trends is OK. Politisizing my fucking lunch isn't. Go stick a Happy Meal up your ass, SN. :)

I have only eaten at McDonalds, a grand total, in my whole life, of 4 times, that is an average of once every 4 years, and only 1 of these did i buy a beef burger.

then again if you've got parents who when you were 5 or so wouldn't let anyone in the family eat beef, then you don't get into the habit of buying that crap.

they didn't let me eat beef (especially not minced beef) because of BSE and the preparation methods used were such that CJD could be easily contracted from them.

I only ate 1 beef burger before 1999, if i did manage to get CJD (which is probably extremely unlikely) it would have been from corned beef when i was about 2.

Ahhh, just back from Mickey D's!!!

Went through the drive through in my SUV, got a doublre quarter pounder with cheese, large fries, large coke (supersize it, dude), and a mcflurry, then I threw the styrofoam containers out the window. I will proceed to go home and file my taxes, knowing happily that my tax $$$ will be well spent on benevolent US action in Iraq to oust the dictator Saddam Hussein and his evil regime.

Well, european and american Mcdonalds are somewhat different from what I understand. Maybe the fries (or I guess you say chips) are different there.

A Quaterpounder is called "Royal with Cheese" here. Beside that there are no big differences I guess.

find Mr Hussain's food taster and poison him with arsenic very slowly gradually increasing the dose (he'll get liver cancer this way, but he can be cured,) then he becomes immune to the acute arsenic poison so you then give Saddam Hussain poisoned food and when his food taster tests it he won't die because he's immune to acute arsenic poisoning, but saddam dies because he isn't.

oh, and to the Iraqi secret service,

yeah, if you are truly thirsty, water is what you should drink. soda actually dehydrates you more

Pulp fiction was pretty good, but I thought it was a little over-rated.

I thought the acclaim it received was a bit too much.

Has anyone seen "Memento"? That was good.

coke contains caffiene which is a duiretic so it's not a good idea to drink it if you're doing sport or you're dehydrated, it's allright to drink if you're just looking for something to taste in you're mouth as a liquid.

other fizzy drinks (soda?) will rehydrate you but they upset the stomach, but they're better than coke.

water is ok, it doesn't upset the stomach or dehydrate you, but it's not particularly useful as it does not have an ionic balance like the blood does.

the best thing for rehydrating you are sports drinks, or you can make you're own by mixing 1/2 orange juice with water and adding a pinch of salt for an isotonic drink, to mix to hypertonic mix upto 3/4 orange juice and for hypotonic mix down to 1/4.

but soda is fine for you're bog standard ordinary guy like you.

On the issue of boycotting many things I call upon you to not give hand over your well earned money for cinema food. Smuggle your own in. In my local cinema for a medium popcorn and a medium coke it costs about £5. That's alot. Further more the coke is always very watered down and the popcorn is barely flavoured. In all to have an "enjoyable" experience at the cinema it costs £9.
