When KFC is good, its good, when its bad its really bad.
**full disclosure I own stock in Bojangles which is better than Popeyes and Popeyes made me fat because in Korea the Popeyes on base delivered.
That said McDonald’s is great, whenever i am having a bad day a Big Mac Combo with real coke is my goto. The thing about McDonalds is that their food is never bad, because they spend a lot of money to make sure its never bad. I mean a lot of money. They hire top tier chefs to develop the recipe and process to ensure this and have a building where they even test the restaurant lay outs.
The problem with McDonald’s is that they forgot who they are and are trying to be something they aren’t its not working for them. They would be a better “progressive burger company” if they leveraged their international ubiquitous presence and had a monthly whats hot somewhere else in the world special. They could save on menu development, and drive trends instead of whatever it is they are doing.
In the order of things I like:
1.) Big Mac
2.) Royal Red Robin Burger
3.) Double Whopper with cheese
4.) Five Guys bacon cheeseburger
5.) Hardees Frisco Burger
If the Colonel’s in reach, you must impeach?
You cats are rough.
My thoughts exactly. Trouble is, it’s good only 60% of the time. If it were closer to 80% I could live with that kind of risk factor.
Yes, Trump’s true crime is plebeian taste. That he would put fried chicken on a gold charger is beyond the pale. The Estates General must flow into the streets and guillotine the rabble.
As long as it has a bone in it, I’m OK (although advantage Popeye’s). I try to avoid anything that is more fried batter than actual chicken (or, in some cases, alleged “popcorn” shrimp). Hopefully, for the Prez’s arteries, he avoids popcorn chicken.
Chick-Fil-A is VG, but in a different category since I can’t possibly be objective about any business that annoys the left. They are the Hobby Lobby of chicken.
I thought it was the ketchup on steak well done that was the true crime against all that is right and holy?
Do not mind KFC from time to time, save what passes for KFC here in Mexico is awful, something lost in translation I guess.
Chicken 65 from a kadhai is the best fast food on the planet. You don’t know your fast food.
Believe it or not, there are KFC scents for home and bath and even sunscreen. Just Google it. Some people can’t get enough of it. Not me but I don’t consider this an impeachable offense, unless he scents the White House with it. Then maybe. ; )
You are incorrect. A Doner Kebab mit Kase from a Turkish street vendor in Germany is the best fast food on the planet.
I was interviewed by the company who implement the machines that pump cinnabon smell into malls.
He’s right, you know.
Mit Käse? I’m intrigued. Never had it with cheese and the ones I’ve had were in London – and it was Cypriots. Still with tahini? Tahini is even better than cheese. Shall we start a German-English war as to who has the best doner kebabs?
German is better than both the ones I have had in London and the US. Its so good I am not even mad about being a victim of an honest to god hate crime by being knocked out cold in an unprovoked bar clearing brawl in Germany. Its totally worth not being able to breathe out of one nostril.
You know that people who don’t like bacon (me) also don’t like fried chicken, right?
I’d never be able to provide such a recommendation for doner kebab, so I yield. Actually, I prefer falafel to doner kebab I must admit.
I got food poisoning at a KFC in college. I didn’t go back for over ten years. Some friends brought some over for a get-together a few years ago and I had totally forgotten how great it is! I especially love their gravy! I had Bojangles for the first time this past summer and have been in mourning that there aren’t any near me.
As far as fast food burgers, I have friends like some of you on this board who go nuts over one vs the others. I just laugh at it all. They all taste OK to me but they aren’t anything great. I had a buddy tell me for ten years that 5-Guys was the greatest. One finally opened here a few years ago and he dragged us all to it. I half expected to have an orgasm while eating the thing from all the hype. In the end, it was good but nothing special.
Amen amen! The branch on 39th and Harlem is good too.
Brown’s Chicken get’s a prize in the best supporting side category for their fried mushrooms.
The EU is giving serious consideration to outlawing doner kebab, because not enough people hate Brussels yet, I guess.
Doner kebab mit kase? My square-headed cousins would put cheese on ice cream if there wasn’t anybody there to stop them.
+1!
That’s NEXT week’s podcast. Don’t rush me, boy….
5-Guys burgers aren’t much and they have the world’s worst fries. Between the fries and the stink of rancid peanuts, not a fan.
I had similar experience with Popeyes some six years ago. Over Christmas vacation, it was so bad I passed out and was taken to the emergency room. But I rallied eventually, thankfully – got to get my red beans and rice!
They should go to a good Filipino place. It’s a regular desert. I guess they didn’t get the memo to be stopped.
Well then it has to be just more fake news because he would never order a chocolate shake – everyone knows he’s a vanilla shake fanatic.
And you’re admitting to both openly on the Internet?
Oh, man. The times I burned my mouth because I couldn’t wait to pop one of those.
