3. I just can't do it!
I hate burgers with sauce and a bunch of crap on them, and I don't trust mechanically separated chicken whatever...Oh, and I don't eat ribs in any form... :yoiks:

25. You're right.
I just need to finish that time machine I was working on so I can go back and stop myself from ever eating my first whopper or big mac... :P

7. good on ya!
I haven't had any of them since last century and I feel good about it.
(Although if someone waved McNuggets in front of me I'm scared I'd go weak and eat a couple :( )
(And I do crave some Taco Bell every few weeks)

8. The only fast food I ever indulge in (out of the chains)
Is the very rare BK cheeseburger, or a Pizza Hut Veggie Lover's pizza. Rare though. I prefer to cook my own food. :)

9. I've never had a whopper or big mac either....
and eating chicken nuggets once was enough to know I would never eat them again. I suspected it was a poor excuse for chicken and watching Supersize Me confirmed it. :scared:

12. I just had all three for lunch
Am I weird?

And yes, I'm kidding... :P

Big Mac: ugh. I had one about two months ago because I'd never had one before, either. Not even when I worked that as a teen and made them by the dozen.

I wasn't missing anything.

Whopper is good, but I just like the onion on it. No L,T, or P for me! So I usually just wind up ordering a double cheeseburger or something.

I had a "real" burger last night at a local restraunt. OMG is was good, better than Mom used to make! I cold barely finish it! Took three beers to wash down!

Chicken nuggets are about what you'd expect. Hot and fresh, they're tasty if not particularly like a restraunt's chicken fingers. In other words, they're tasty in and of themselves but are not like the "real" thing. Much like everything else there.

McDonald's BBQ sause is nothing to write home about, though.

13. I read somewhere thatm 96% of Americans
have been to a McDonald's in the last year.

We were on a road trip recently, and i had to go in one to pee... does that count? :rofl:

Otherwise i am in the other 4%. :D


Happy New Year bi_baby! :hug:

16. I much prefer paying a premium for locally made food at a restaurant
A 6/7 dollar burger also goes a hell of a lot longer than a shit-tacular mess of crap slammed together and nuked for 40 seconds.

I haven't had a Whopper or Big Mac in years.

I had a McNugget once. In 1981 or so. Took one bite, and pulled out a lip or an eyelid or something, and never tried one again. And I never will.
