The McDonald's Thread: 'Happy Meal Outrage' Edition

[The Original Bamfer]

I think everyone would get mad if they were fired for no reason.

[Catman]

I think everyone would get mad if they were fired for no reason.

You should consider yourself lucky that you're not in charge of anything. Any business where you're the boss won't last a week. If you think employees who give customers obviously molded bread is okay then I don't see how an health inspector would allow you to continue in business. What if the customer ate the bread and sued the place? Now its you whose gonna be out of a job not the kid in the back.

[AndThePickles]

Catman, this is why you should go to Taco Bell instead of McDonald's.

[SsM]

The one and only time I ever got fired I wasn't mad.. It was a complete surprise and came out of nowhere, I really didn't have time to be mad.

[Wiseman]

The one and only time I ever got fired I wasn't mad.. It was a complete surprise and came out of nowhere, I really didn't have time to be mad.

I'm pretty sure you're a robot though

[Catman]

Catman, this is why you should go to Taco Bell instead of McDonald's.

That's what Spoons is always telling me.

[SpideyInATree]

Bacon Cheesy Potato burrito. :up:

And no mold. :o

[terry78]

^Just have to worry about long hairs in the taco meat. :csad:

[SpideyInATree]

Not here. Just ate one and there was no hair.

Taco Bell freakin' rules! :grin:

[Catman]

Bacon Cheesy Potato burrito.

My toilet can't take that much abuse. When I go to Taco Bell I either order the 79 cent Three Layor Nacho or the quesadilla. Anything else is just asking to be in the bathroom for an hour.

[SpideyInATree]

Agreed. I know that I will be paying for it later but I had a super long day at work today and felt like rewarding myself.

[CelticPredator]

Only to punish yourself?


I had the double stackicon....a few painful bathroom trips followed....that has never happend at BK.

Thankfully, that specific one is nowhere near me.

[Catman]

that has never happend at BK.

Like a month ago I had my first BK toilet abuse. I'm a fan of their steak burger. But for some reason they replaced it with a thicker version of it. I was like, "what happened to the normal one" but they didn't have it for some reason. So, I was like "fine" since it's basically the same sandwich but with thicker meat. Man...big mistake! :csad:

[AndThePickles]

I have never "paid" for my Taco Bell visits. My stomach must be awesome :o

[CelticPredator]

Angry Wopper = Win. Thats stuff is fantastic. Love their fries.

But Wendy's is the fast food king imo. Cheap, dont get the poops, and always tasty.

[Catman]

But Wendy's is the fast food king imo. Cheap, dont get the poops, and always tasty.

If you eat the chilli at Wendy's you'll abuse the people around you with all the farting.

[CelticPredator]

I dont eat the chili. :funny:

Seriously though, 2 double stacks, one chicken crisper whatever....its like 5 bucks.

[SsM]

Wendy's chili would be great if they didn't use the burnt, dried up meat that can't be sold on burgers.

[CelticPredator]

LOL...

Also your avatar...love those shorts.

[Catman]

The best thing about Wendy's is the frosty. :up:

[AndThePickles]

The new toffee coffee frosty is amazing.

[CelticPredator]

Blah. I hate the frosty. I think its because once when I was younger I was craving...like REALLY craving a milkshake... and I got a ****ing frosty.....:o

[katie_girl09]

The best thing about Wendy's is the frosty. :up:
I've never really liked the frosty to be honest. Wendy's does make my favourite burger, though. McDonald's has the best fries imo, but their burgers taste so... artificial. Love them once in a while, though.

[Catman]

McDonald's has the best fries imo

Arby's has the best fries. Curly Fries FTW.

[Wolfwood]

Taco Bell sucks ass, Del Taco is where it's at.

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

Your mom is where it's at.

[CelticPredator]

Your mom's taco!




And I mean taco....not her vaghine. (Bruno)

[Darthphere]

Catman, you never told me which McDonald's it was. I want to drive over there and verify all this.

[Nivek]

If you want to applaud that by all means I get the picture of what type of person you are.

Cool.


:thumbs up

[Darthphere]

Cool.


:thumbs up

And by that I meant a respectable member of society.

[Nivek]

Catman may not have been that far off...

Moral of the story: DO NOT slip on your moldy bread game otherwise you'll be considered a cracker jack.

[Bruce Wayne]

So it's... fish?

Surprising. :confused:

[terry78]

But not premium fish...the fish that the other fish look at be like, "damn, you ugly."

[Aesop Rocks]

Chief Pretentious Ramsey would have a field day in Hell's Kitchen complaining about this dish.

[WompuM]

They all look the same on the inside. I was expected real shock value, all I got was a fun trivia question.

[Bruce Wayne]

But not premium fish...the fish that the other fish look at be like, "damn, you ugly."

I never really expected a fried fish sandwich from McDonald's to be made up from some award winning carp.

[chaseter]

Since when did taste/quality become determined by what the animal looks like?

[terry78]

I want the animal that is slaughtered to be as attractive to each other as I do my own women. :o I gets the best of everything, ****ers.

[chaseter]

I love calamari...but squid are ugly mother ****ers.

[Immortalfire]

So they use ugly fish. Racists.

[terry78]

So they use ugly fish. Racists.

'Fire gets it.

[Immortalfire]

I'm going to go by a McD's in town, and listen for someone to order a Filet o Fish and yell bloody Racism.

[Ghostvirus]

Well this is dissappointing. I am surprised there is actually fish in the Fish sandwich.

[Majic Walrus]

Mm mm hoki. Good eats.

[Maximum Carnage]

McDonald's is nasty as hell.. PASS!!

[Sawyer]

I want the animal that is slaughtered to be as attractive to each other as I do my own women. :o I gets the best of everything, ****ers.

:lmao:

[BATZARRO WWD]

Well, it's McDonalds. I'm amazed they ever USE fish. Do they put in cardboard in there like in their Beef burgers?

[Manic]

The catfish isn't exactly the Audrey Hepburn of fish, either. As long as it tastes good, it tastes good.

That said, I haven't had a Filet-O-Fish since my age was in the single digits.

[Manic]

double double

[Dew k. Mosi]

I'll still eat one, yum yum yum

[Raiden]

Almost any fish fillet tastes good with tartar sauce. :o

[knowsbleed]

:barf:

You just wanted an excuse to use that smiley.

[Go Web Go!]

I've never had a Filet-O-Fish, so whatever. :o

[katie_girl09]

But not premium fish...the fish that the other fish look at be like, "damn, you ugly."
It tastes like garbage anyway. Why is this a surprise? :huh:

[The Guard]

All fish are ugly. I fail to see how a fish that is ugly being made into an arguably even less attractive square of fishpaste is an issue.

[chamber-music]

Your eating the fish not making love to it who cares what it looks like unless your a lonely sea captain who has been out at sea too long ...........

[Hound55]

Deep sea fish tend to be uglier anyway... Hoki or deep sea perch for instance... it ain't pretty but its delicious.

[Matt Murdock]

But not premium fish...the fish that the other fish look at be like, "damn, you ugly."
Huh.

I never knew that fish were verb bigots.

[knowsbleed]

We can only guess at why Terry needs his Filet-o-Fish fish to be aesthetically pleasing as well as mouth numbingly tasty. Ulterior motives perhaps?

Curious and curiouser.

[Bad Supe's Girl]

ummmm, okay fish
I don't really care what the fish looks like.

If I wanted to eat some healthy good fish I would get a fresh fish and grill it on my own, instead of frying it anyway :huh:

[knowsbleed]

any fresh fish, or only pretty looking fresh fish? these details are important.

[Bad Supe's Girl]

I don't think any fish are pretty.

hell the flounder is freaky lookin' with two eyes on the side of it's head but it takes good.

[Hound55]

I was going to say "Jewfish" but I don't know how well that would translate and whether I'd be accused of being a racist.

Talking fish is dangerous territory since so many types have different names in different areas...

[knowsbleed]

So fresh fish, really fresh fish:

CCqKaPCmGH0

[Bad Supe's Girl]

So fresh fish, really fresh fish:

CCqKaPCmGH0

ewwww, that's a little TOO fresh :dry:

[knowsbleed]

now i'm hungry.

[terry78]

So now you can look at a Matisse while swallowing some mcnuggets. Ain't nothing sacred no more?

[Watson]

It's not IN the Louvre, it's in the underground mall that's attached to it. I'm pretty sure there were a bunch of fast food chains in that area already.

[terry78]

Thanks for ruining my rant. Jesus H. Christ, girl. :cmad:

[Manic]

What I find startling about that article is that France is McDonalds' top market outside of the US. That means the only people who eat as much McDonalds as us are the French. How the hell does that happen? Isn't that country known for its amazing cuisine? Or is French food so pretentious that even the French would rather have a Big Mac?

"Bah! I tire of this cheese, escargot, and fine wine. I must have ze royale with cheese and the American fries, which is what we call fries in France. Huh! Huh! Huh!"

[Watson]

It could also have to do with the fact that France (especially Paris) is a major tourist destination. They probably get a ton of business from North Americans who are seeking something from home.

Also, McDonald's in France is just better. They have wine and beer.


Thanks for ruining my rant. Jesus H. Christ, girl. :cmad:

No problem Terry :up:

[Manic]

It could also have to do with the fact that France (especially Paris) is a major tourist destination. They probably get a ton of business from North Americans who are seeking something from home.

I've never understood how people do that. If I visit another country, the last place I'm going to is a fast food restaurant that's around the corner from my house back in the States. If I'm in France, I'm dining in a place with a freaking Michelin star!

[Watson]

I actually found it kind of neat seeing what was different at the fast food chains. Aside from the booze in McDonald's, there were actual differences in the menu and stuff. But generally yes, I agree you should get a taste of the local food rather than the chain stuff.

[The Guard]

Who cares?

It's kinda like whining that there are gift shops there.

[knowsbleed]

McD's in Korea had Bulgogi and Shrimp burgers. I haven't partaken in a McD's here in Japan... but I wouldn't be surprised if they had a sushi/ninja burger.

[Watson]

In Halifax they had lobster :barf:


BTW, does anyone else miss the McDonald's pizza? I do.

[knowsbleed]

I've heard about this McD's pizza. I've heard it was quite tasty. I'd wash it down with a tasty beverage.

[Majic Walrus]

No problem Terry :up:

You know what they call a quarter pounder in France?

[Watson]

A royale with cheese :cool:

[Majic Walrus]

:D:up:

[JustABill]

Wait...a McDonalds with Lobster?

Seriously?! I love Lobster, but from McDonalds? Seriously?!

[SuperFerret]

I would never eat French food again, it was disgusting. This is :up:

[bullets]

I've never understood how people do that. If I visit another country, the last place I'm going to is a fast food restaurant that's around the corner from my house back in the States. If I'm in France, I'm dining in a place with a freaking Michelin star!


McDonalds in Germany is interesting because they sometimes have different things on the menu. I only ate there becuase I lived in Europe for three years but if it's vacation there is alot more you should try.

[Motown Marvel]

if your concerned about lobster at mcdonalds, you're gonna freak out hearing that white castle has clam strips.

[ultrasuperduckman]

Story reminds me of the Taco Bells in Demolition Man.

[Shemtov]

In Israel they Don't have cheeseburgers.

[danoyse]

It's not IN the Louvre, it's in the underground mall that's attached to it. I'm pretty sure there were a bunch of fast food chains in that area already.

Yep. I went to the Louvre last year - that underground mall had a Starbucks and Virgin Megastore (although that might be gone now), as well as a few other stores. You could even book tickets to Disneyland Paris there.

A McDonalds won't make much difference. It's part of the mall, not the museum.

[Majic Walrus]

In Israel they Don't have cheeseburgers.

:csad:

[Shemtov]

But thats because ther's Absolutely no way a cheeseburger can be Kosher.

[Majic Walrus]

But thats because ther's Absolutely no way a cheeseburger can be Kosher.

Yeah but just because someone lives in Israel doesn't mean that they are necessarily a practicing Jew right? Also... Have you ever had a cheeseburger? I mean I know it's not Kosher, but have you ever had one.

It's really quite wonderful.

[terry78]

I could never go to another country, aside from maybe Canada or the UK, and immediately order some fast food I could get here. I paid all that ****ing money to hit this exotic locale and all I'm going to get is a damn value meal?

[Majic Walrus]

If I'm beboping around an exotic locale I would love to try the cuisine. Eat some strange and wonderful foods.

Then after eating some balut and ox penis for a few weeks... I'm probably going to want a goddamn cheeseburger and french fries.

[Raiden]

McD's in Korea had Bulgogi and Shrimp burgers. I haven't partaken in a McD's here in Japan... but I wouldn't be surprised if they had a sushi/ninja burger.

I heard McD's in Japan have miso soup.

[danoyse]

I went to a McDonalds in London and it was exactly the same as one you would find in the US, as far as I could tell.

I noticed in Paris that Diet Coke is called 'Coca-Cola Light' and it still has calories. And Coke Zero seemed to be all the rage, I saw ads for it everywhere.

[BillyZaned]

I have fond memories of Happy Meal toys from the 80s... so much better then the junk today... who remembers this

or this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQjjPMSx8Nk



the best part is... I still have some of these... my favorite being the french fries...

plus, we all know these kick any Michael Bay Trasnformer's ass....

[Manic]

Throughout the 90's (aka The Silver Age of Disney Animated Films), McDonalds would release a ton of Happy Meal toys for every Disney movie that came out.

Those were the days.

[imaperson2]

OMG...are these seriously from the 80's? I am from the 90's and remember these. Perhaps they were my brothers?

[SuBe]

What about when Super Mario Bros 3 came out and the toys that came with those! Amazing.

[Paroxysm]

I used to get Fragle Rock and Mario Bros 3 toys in my happy meals.

[amazingfantasy15]

I remember the robot transformers, but not the dinosaur ones, the robots were towards the end of my time getting happy meals though. Those and the lego happy meals are the ones I remember most.

[The Guard]

My favorites were the transforming McDonald's food, the Berenstein Bear figures, and the later Power Rangers movie toys.

[BillyZaned]

YES!!! Loved the old school Happy Meal toys! :awesome:


I'm going to go work at McDonalds just to steal the toys...


I heard they make 50 an hour!!!:awesome:

[POWdER-man]

Yeah I remember those well.

Although not a toy, anyone remember Chicken McNuggets Shanghai?

http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g165/powderman_22222/McDonalds_11256_570.jpg

I remember learning how to use chopsticks with those. :awesome:

[BillyZaned]

anyone remember "chicken Littles" from KFC back in the early 90s... best chicken sandwich ever

[Lex Luthor]

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/7246/mcdinochange.jpg (http://img3.imageshack.us/i/mcdinochange.jpg/)
I definately remember those. :)

I also remember going thru a bit of trouble (well alot of phone calls for sure) in order to obtain the complete set of Happy Meal Toys based on the Spider-Man Animated Series (summer 1995 if I'm not mistaken).

[Kane52630]

i remember when i had a Spiderman toy from the Animated series from McDonalds

[enterthemadness]

Seriously, grown men are talking about fast food toys? Only on the Hype.

:o I have a crap load of McD/BK/Wendy's kid meal toys in my room. Although Wendy's sucks at the toys.

The eatery is outfitted with outlets for plugging in laptops, upholstered vinyl chairs instead of Fiberglas seats bolted to the floor, subdued lighting and employees whose all-black uniforms suggest a hip boutique.

[AnorexicBatman]

I bet they eat the burgers with knife and fork and the coke comes in wine glasses.

[katie_girl09]

What I find funny is how people are trying to pretend that McDonald's isn't delicious. If the food were "terrible", it wouldn't sell so well. Sure it isn't exactly healthy, but don't pretend that it doesn't taste good. Jeez, ever since Super Size Me...

[BlackLantern]

I didn't like that part of it....the food is tasty, I just find it amusing they are trying to make it more than it really is

[Manic]

Pinkies out, folks. McDonalds done gone all fancy on us.

[BlackLantern]

Ill have to make reservations now....curses

[katie_girl09]

I didn't like that part of it....the food is tasty, I just find it amusing they are trying to make it more than it really is
Yeah that's kind of dumb. McDonald's is supposed to be quick, tasty food. No one comes there for the eating experience.

[Ace of Knaves]

McDonalds isn't tasty though...

The burgers taste of cardboard and the chicken nuggets don't taste of chicken. **** they ain't even made of real chicken. Just the giblets and the feet and all that.

I'd take a double whopper over a big mac any day of the week. The burgers in BK actually taste of...you know, beef.

[Metamorpho1977]

http://gawker.com/5408067/mcdonalds-gets-sleek-new-look-food-still-terrible?skyline=true&s=x

You should go to the one at the Biltmore Estate. It's really classy.

[cupcake_jimmies]

I'm obsessed with the chicken nuggets!

I love Happy Meals. :woot:

[Midnyte_Sun]

I went to a Mcdonalds in the Netherlands, it was a 2-story building and there was a lady who would put away your umbrella. I went to the bathroom and this lady followed me and was wiping the wet shoe marks as I walked towards the bathroom.

As I went to the bathroom and washed my hands, she was waiting by the door and walked in and started scrubbing the floor behind me.

An extra value meal there was about $8-$10 dollars. No ketchup, only little cups of yellow mayo. Small drinks were extra small, a medium was a USA small, and a large was a USA medium. :dry:

[Catman]

I just find it amusing they are trying to make it more than it really is

They've been doing that for a few years now though. Even Burger King is starting to do it.

[Obi-Ron]

No ketchup, only little cups of yellow mayo.

They must have crappy McDonalds in whatever backwards country you're from, but here in the U.S. McDonalds tastes great.

[Addendum]

I'd rather spend more at Backyard Burgers. The burgers are far more tasty than McDonald's, Burger King, or Wendy's could ever strive for.

[Catman]

They must have crappy McDonalds in whatever backwards country you're from, but here in the U.S. McDonalds tastes great.

I understand where Ace is coming from. BK is more...traditional. With McDonald's it's more about the sauce.

[BlackLantern]

I'd rather spend more at Backyard Burgers. The burgers are far more tasty than McDonald's, Burger King, or Wendy's could ever strive for.

regional and local stores are always going to have better food...not everyone has a Backyard Burgers or a Chipotles or a WhataBurger

Im in connecticut, we just have all the major chains and a bunch of diners and grills run by Italians, Greeks, and Egyptians

[SuperFerret]

I'm guessing we're talking about the burgers then? I never eat fast food burgers and rarely eat burgers period. I'm a chicken sammich guy.

Wendy's kicks both of their asses though.

[Catman]

Wendy's kicks both of their asses though.

In the chicken department? Yes.

[SuperFerret]

That's all that matters to me. McDonalds does have the best fries though, when they salt them.

I just like other fast food places better. I'd eat at Whataburger any day before I'd go to a McDonald's. And I know that Whataburger is only in Texas. I went through some withdrawals when I lived in Virginia. :csad:

[BlackLantern]

And if I was in Connecticut, I'd rather eat at the diners

they are good, the one I go to regularly is run by Egyptians and all the food is great....but sometimes I just want a whopper jr or a mcgriddle

Aw. I've never heard of Whataburger, though.

[Manic]

Nation's Giant Hamburgers are simply wonderful. They're about $3-$5 per burger, though, so I rarely ever eat there. They're only located in Northern California, though.

I agree re: McD, except that I'd go for Carl's Jr over McD or even BK; I love their Jalapeno Burger. :heart:

[Figs]

They must have crappy McDonalds in whatever backwards country you're from, but here in the U.S. McDonalds tastes great.

That's what I'm saying. I rarely eat fast food anymore since I'm trying to take better care of myself as I get closer to turning 30 but McDonals(like a lot of fast food)tastes pretty good so long as you eat it in moderation.

It does taste like meat but just not like steak or some quality beef but it's still beef.

I'll have to agree with Ace though that Burger King does taste even better.

I don't think there's any diners down here. We got several barbecue joints though, a bunch of Backyard Burgers (http://www.backyardburgers.com/DNN/Locations/tabid/3019/Default.aspx), a place called Jimmy's with Chicago-style hot dogs and Italian Beef, and then some awesome soul food joints. But you have to drive to the 'hood for those.

I wish there were Sonics here in LA, but at least we have In-N-Out to make up for that.

[Figs]

I wish there were Sonics here in LA, but at least we have In-N-Out to make up for that.

Can't go wrong with In-N-Out.

That's why I'm glad there are burger joints out there that, while still classified as fast food, are what I would call or consider "quality fast food". In-N-Out, Sonics and Nations are what I would call quality when compared to McDonalds, Burger King, Carls Jr and Jack in the Box.

I'd classify Farmer Boys as a "quality fast food", as well, although they are like a cross between Denny's and Carl's Jr.

Never heard of Farmer Boys. Is it something mainly down in southern California?

I hope they have a bathroom attendant that wipes your bum afterwards, because after eating a value meal you're like Mt. Vesuvius up in that *****.

My ability to hold it in is legendary.

Hahahaha. That can be bad and lead to constipation though, which can lead to hemoroids...believe me, I know...from experience. :csad:

Jeeze, you've been to a Sonics? The closest one to me is in Tracey, and that's at least an hour out of my way.

Yeah, I live in Livermore. If you know where Tracy is then I'm sure you've heard of Livermore. I like living in the east bay, in the middle of a lot of stuff.

[E-Man]

McDonald's is only good for quick food. It's just like any other fast food place, except they've already ingrained themselves into multiple generations. Being "classy" is to get a few suckers in that are dumb enough to say, "Ooh Mickey D's is classy now! We going there now!"

And Whataburger isn't what it's cracked up to be. It's vastly inferior to Dairy Queen, and Jack-in-the-Box owns it hardcore.

And Wendy's sucks the big one too. Chicken is way better at Chik-Fil-A.

[xwolverine2]

why is this bad...? so much mcD hate lol

i hate going to eat inside most mcd's restaurants cause their nasty... that new look is better. nothing wrong with classy over trashy

[BlackLantern]

there are no Chik-Fil-As here in the northeast....we do have Duchess though and they do a pretty mean chicken sammich

[Heretic]

First of all...the BEST fast food hamburger is at Five Guys Burgers And Fries.

And Whataburger IS in Virginia.

[NotAHenchwench]

There used to be one at the mall I used to work at when I worked for Au Bon Pain....

[BlackLantern]

was there?? interesting

[NotAHenchwench]

Yes indeedy. I'm unsure if it's still there, however. It's been about 4 years since I set foot in that food court.

[terry78]

Steak 'n Shake. Cheap, and it's tolerable.

[Paroxysm]

I like this idea.

[enterthemadness]

One of the MCD's in town has like two tv's (thinking widescreen HD) and used to have flowers on the table.

[Paroxysm]

We have tons of McD's with those flat-screen tv's.

[Sawyer]

So, what, I'm going to have to wear a sports jacket and tie to McDonalds now?

[enterthemadness]

So, what, I'm going to have to wear a sports jacket and tie to McDonalds now?

Don't be silly, the tie can be a clip on.

[AndThePickles]

McDonald's will never be classy. Their food itself is mediocre...definitely better fast food out there. Do love their fatty-ass breakfast food, though!

[BlackLantern]

Mc Griddles are like jesus cakes

[BlackLantern]

Mc Griddles are like jesus cakes

[Manic]

I'm not a fan of the McGriddle. I'm fine with the Sausage McMuffin w/Egg.

[katie_girl09]

I don't like anything on McDonald's breakfast menu.

[terry78]

I don't like anything on McDonald's breakfast menu.

Pancakes.

[Paroxysm]

hash browns!!!!!!!!!

[Sawyer]

BK breakfast menu >>>>>>>>>>>>> McDonald's break fast menue

BK's hash browns are just too damn delicious.

[Addendum]

Krispy Kreme >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any fast food breakfast menu

[Manic]

Ick. Krispy Kreme's donuts are far too sweet. I prefer to find local donut shops.

[BlackLantern]

I like Krispy Kreme but that company is in financial deep ****....lots of bad debt

[katie_girl09]

Pancakes.
Pfft! I can make them better.
hash browns!!!!!!!!!
Blech! Too oily.
Krispy Kreme >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any fast food breakfast menu
Those are some of the worst donuts I've ever eaten. No offense.

[Sawyer]

Krispy Kreme is delicious. I could eat twenty of those damn things.

[Paroxysm]

We had a Krispy Kreme open up here (only one in western Canada). Business was bombing for the first couple of years, then everyone remembered that Tim Hortons made better doughnuts.

[Midnyte_Sun]

Whoever said Sonic's burgers are quality needs their head checked. Sonic's is the probably the most overrated burger joint out there. Their burgers are fresh, yes, but their meat is nothing special. I'd put it in the same category as Rally's or Steak n Shake.

[Ghostvirus]

I bet they eat the burgers with knife and fork and the coke comes in wine glasses.

Coke should be in a wine glass!:cmad:

[Poetic Chaos]

Jeeze, you've been to a Sonics? The closest one to me is in Tracey, and that's at least an hour out of my way.

lol that's the nearest one to me too and I'm about the same distance away. Some friends and I made the drive once just to try it. We were so confused by the eat in your car thing. For some reason we didn't pick that up from the commercials and were looking for a place to enter after we parked:doh:

Also, I didn't know Nation's was exclusive to us to NorCal'ers. Awesome.

[Metamorpho1977]

be patient, Chick Fil A is expanding to the north east. I go to church with the owner/founder of ChikFilA.

[BlackLantern]

they won't last up here if they won't be open on Sundays....I too have heard the rumors of Chik-Fil-A expanding up here for a couple years now....

[Raiden]

be patient, Chick Fil A is expanding to the north east. I go to church with the owner/founder of ChikFilA.

Can you ask him to have more restaurants of Chil-fil-A here in LA? I hate having to drive over half an hour just to get their food.

[Addendum]

Those are some of the worst donuts I've ever eaten. No offense.

Don't care, since that means more for me.

[Poetic Chaos]

I've only been to Chick-Fil-A once, some place in the mall. I got a chicken sandwich and some waffle fries...FOR FREE!

Nope. When I said that, along with In N Out burger and another one or two, it was in comparison to fast food like McDonalds and Burger King.

In comparison to fast food chains like those, Sonic is a step up in quality, even though it might not be the best. Personally, you want the best quality...it's your own BBQ.

[Metamorpho1977]

They're supposed to be opening two in California next year. One in LA the other in San Diego.

[chamber-music]

The eatery is outfitted with outlets for plugging in laptops, upholstered vinyl chairs instead of Fiberglas seats bolted to the floor, subdued lighting and employees whose all-black uniforms suggest a hip boutique.
They did this in the UK branches a couple years ago and the french ones have been like that for a while.

They must have crappy McDonalds in whatever backwards country you're from, but here in the U.S. McDonalds tastes great.
I've eaten U.K and U.S McDonalds they taste the same and I agree with Ace BurgerKings burgers taste better.

We had a McCurry Burger over here for a little while I never tried it but I heard it wasn't very nice.
Steak 'n Shake. Cheap, and it's tolerable.
My friend ate there and promptly vomited

[Manic]

They're supposed to be opening two in California next year. One in LA the other in San Diego.
Dammit, we need more in NorCal. I'm over an hour's drive away from their nearest location.

[Heretic]

The last time I went to McDonalds I pulled up to the drive through and saw a big sign stating "TRY OUR NEW COUNTRY HAM BISCUIT"

So, this is the conversation that took place.

McEmployee: "Can I help you"
Me: "Hi, I'd one of your new country ham biscuits"
McEmployee: "We aint got no HAAAAAAAM Biscuits! This is McDONalds!"

I just drove off.

[chamber-music]

Ace you need to try hamburger union

[Immortalfire]

Do they still have those "zones" they tried a while back? The grab and go zone, the Internet zone, the heart attack zone...

[Raiden]

Right now the only thing I really go for in McD is their ice coffee. I'm not a regular coffee drinker but that really hit the spot, plus it's not that expensive.

[terry78]

Geez, this is worse than that time I went to Kentucky for that Kentucky Fried Chicken.

McNuggets Rage
Cops: Woman put fist through drive-thru window over chicken beef

JANUARY 4--Meet Melodi Dushane. Angered that Chicken McNuggets were not available at an Ohio McDonald's, the Toledo woman allegedly put her fist through the eatery's drive-thru window. The January 1 McNuggets rage incident resulted in Dushane, 24, being arrested for felony vandalism and booked into the Lucas County jail, where the below mug shot was snapped. According to a Toledo Police Department report, Dushane pulled up to the drive-thru window Friday at 6:20 AM and ordered "Chicken McNuggets and other dinner items." When informed that McDonald's stopped serving dinner selections at 2:30 AM, Dushane began arguing with employee Melissa Vasquez. At one point, Dushane "leaned out of her car, into the window, and punched Melissa in her mouth," cops reported. When night manager Tia Walker appeared at the window, Dushane took a swing at her, prompting a tussle. When the women separated, Dushane "then punched the drive through window, breaking it" and sending glass flying everywhere. The scene of the alleged chicken crime can be seen here, thanks to Google's Street View feature. Dushane, next due in court on January 28, has been ordered to stay away from the fast food outlet. Last March, a Florida woman was arrested after she called 911 three times to complain that a McDonald's was out of Chicken McNuggets. "This is an emergency. If I would have known they didn't have McNuggets, I wouldn't have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don't want one," Latreasa Goodman told a police operator. (4 pages)

[chamber-music]

This isn't the first story I have heard about people going nuts over Mc Donalds Nuggets. What do they put in that stuff crack?

[Mister J]

This is so ****ing stupid. Coming into the thread, I thought it might have been because she wanted extra sauces, but didn't want to pay for them. I'm honestly not sure which would have been worse. :lmao:

[Raiden]

Funniest story I've heard in awhile. :lmao:

[Motown Marvel]

wow. im surprised she's not fatter. this all made sense once i read it happened in toledo. weird people down there in toledo.

[amazingfantasy15]

I'm surprised she wasn't also charged with a DUI, she must have been drunk to be at a McDonald's at 6am on New Year's Day, getting this worked up over some Chicken McNugget's.

[Morg]

wow. im surprised she's not fatter. this all made sense once i read it happened in toledo. weird people down there in toledo.


Not really, been there

[BillyZaned]

Hey, their "nuggies" are pretty damn good

my 2 year old calls them nuggies, so I do too... lol

[Paroxysm]

she's was probably high on PCP or something, sniffin too much Angel Dust can cause you to become insanely strong.

or

she just wanted chicken nuggets......like REALLY wanted them.

[Alex The Great]

Man, I was hoping the new decade would have some less crazier people. But alas...

[B]

I've heard of this type of stuff happening before.. doesn't get any less funny though :D

[Aesop Rocks]

What are you gonna do, brother when the mcnuggets. Run out. On you?

[BillyZaned]

50 piece Chicken Nuggests w/ sweet & sour sauce!!! getting that tonight!

[Majic Walrus]

This isn't the first story I have heard about people going nuts over Mc Donalds Nuggets. What do they put in that stuff crack?

I thought the EXACT same thing.

[VenomVsSpidey]

this is almost as funny as the guy who went ballistic on a walmart/mickey D's a while back...a true reflection on america :up: :hehe:

[Ace of Knaves]

This isn't the first story I have heard about people going nuts over Mc Donalds Nuggets. What do they put in that stuff crack?

It's certainly not chicken...

[BillyZaned]

pigeon?

[Ace of Knaves]

Maybe. Could be a number of things.

If it is chicken it's probably the giblets and feet and **** like that. But, I do like me some nuggets with BBQ or curry sauce :D

[BillyZaned]

actaully, it is chicken... they enchance the breasts of chickens with hormones.... causing them to gross unaturally huge.... sometimes to the point where they can't walk without breaking their legs...

[Ace of Knaves]

Niiice. Poor, thoughtless, flightless birds :(

[Paroxysm]

actaully, it is chicken... they enchance the breasts of chickens with hormones.... causing them to gross unaturally huge.... sometimes to the point where they can't walk without breaking their legs...

....wicked.

[BillyZaned]

Niiice. Poor, thoughtless, flightless birds :(

watch Food Inc. for how the American food is farmed.... gross...

the movie actually made me cry, this crap government makes it so these processing plants can serve us diessesed meat with no real punishment

[Immortalfire]

Do not deny a woman's McNugget fix.

[Mister J]

50 piece Chicken Nuggests w/ sweet & sour sauce!!! getting that tonight!
I thought you were making up the existence of such a portion. You weren't.

Oh, man. :dry:

How did I not know about this? :awesome:

[Motown Marvel]

its funny, if you get a large sized order of mcnuggets you can separate the nuggets into piles according to the shape of mold they came from.

[DorkyFresh]

she should've been named Melodi Douschane.

[Dark Helmet]

50 piece Chicken Nuggests w/ sweet & sour sauce!!! getting that tonight!

When the **** did they start selling their Nuggets with 50 pieces ?

[Hotwire]

Hey, quit ripping on her. I once threw a fit because I couldn't get a Happy Meal @10:00A.M.!!




Of course, I was 6 at the time.

[katie_girl09]

Mcnuggets are good, but not criminal record good.

[TinkTonks]

its funny, if you get a large sized order of mcnuggets you can separate the nuggets into piles according to the shape of mold they came from.

I have this.....I guess it's an OCD quality, where I will separate my nuggets by shape! :o I eat those funky 'L' shaped ones first, then the round ones, haha! I'm also the type of person who will eat their M&m's by color.....

Man, I'm too hungry! I *really* want some McNuggets.....:csad:

[Manic]

50 piece Chicken Nuggests w/ sweet & sour sauce!!! getting that tonight!
With only 2 sauce packs...

Hungry McDonald's Customer Throws Mop Water At Cashiers (http://consumerist.com/2010/01/hungry-mcdonalds-customer-throws-mop-water-at-cashiers.html)

A bucket of dirty mop water is nobody's friend, which is exactly why you shouldn't leave it out where customers can reach it. Because eventually someone will get angry over an order and feel a need to throw something, and oh look, mop water.

SEE VIDEO HERE http://consumerist.com/2010/01/hungry-mcdonalds-customer-throws-mop-water-at-cashiers.html

[Shemtov]

This is the 2cnd angry Mickey-d costumer news story in a week.

[Mister J]

Oh, God. There's video. YES! :lmao:

[Aesop Rocks]

She's......she's on the loose?!

[Hotwire]

Damn! McDonlads is really McPissing people off. WTMcF?

[Aesop Rocks]

Took you a bit to think of that one, didn't it?

[Morg]

Damn! McDonlads is really McPissing people off. WTMcF?

I think it's the food, some special ingredient making people act like idiots

[VenomVsSpidey]

It' like I said, 2010 is going to be a good year :lmao:

[Morg]

She's......she's on the loose?!


You are safe so long you don't have fast food on you :hehe:

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

Hahaha. I just saw this on another site. :funny:

[katie_girl09]

And she's obese too. Talk about perpetuating stereotypes!

[JustABill]

I love how the young boys beside her are ordering and the youngest one goes ''Jim...uh Jim." and they all just leave. Haha. :hehe:

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

Why is it always a fat, ghetto ass black chick?

[Alex The Great]

6 days into the year and we already got 2 crazy McDonalds stories!

[SuperFerret]

I'd be pissed off if I were a fat, ghetto ass black chick.

[Metamorpho1977]

I think it's the food, some special ingredient making people act like idiots

Not just one special ingredient. McDonald's food is just crap in general.

[SuperFerret]

But it's tasty crap. :o

[Wolfwood]

I'm betting she'll go back to the same restaurant at some point.

[terry78]

Fat sassy black women. Living land mines they are.
