Yeah, keep your flirting to where it's acceptable. Like at a job interview or a performance review. Maybe during a traffic stop or a poorly lit street after 1am. Just use your heads guys, it's not hard. Sheesh.

Im not so sure thats true. I know a lot of people, male and female, who get upset if they are propositioned at all, unless they initiate it themselves.

KFC is worse than McDonalds. I don't know when this happened or why, but I can legitimately enjoy something from a McDonalds menu (McMuffin) and everything I've had from KFC since... like, 1994 has just been godawful. I've lived all over the loving US and they're all terrible. I don't understand.

KFC chicken is too juicy. I know that sounds like a dumb thing to complain about because chicken should not be dry but a piece of fried chicken shouldn't dump 2 ounces of oily liquid out when you bite into it either. To top it off their batter soaks up an ungodly amount of oil.

Agreed kfc is entirely joyless food. Sometimes mcdonalds nuggets or a mcbouble or quarter pounder can feel great. Especially on the road. Also their coffee is good

KFC's shittiness is compounded by every other fried chicken place being pretty good. Even the chains. Popeyes is almost objectively better than KFC and they are all over. I'm only in the mood for fried chicken once very three months and I just get it from the grocery store Deli usually though. It's still better than KFC.

As disappointing as KFC's chicken often is, they usually have pretty decent potato wedge fries.

I actually find Long John Silver's "chicken" to be more satisfying than KFC's, plus they have hush puppies which are very good.

All fried chicken joints are good in their own way. Popeye's and Chick-fil-A are both obviously better but KFC works for me too if I'm in the mood for it.

I can eat the hottest curries and never have any gut troubles.

But KFC always gives me the old chocolate shotgun.

That said, I think KFC tastes great, and dunno what you're all on about. I mean, Popeyes is better, but saying it's bad compared to McDonalds?! Their gray, steamed meat? Are you kidding me?

If you get chicken from KFC that is actually recently cooked, and cooked properly, it's pretty decent. In my experience though most of the time you get the dried out poo poo from the bottom of the tray where the bone weighs more than the meat on it. It's very inconsistent to me. It's like Golden Corrall's chicken - sometimes it's decent, most of the time it's edible but not very satisfying.

McDonalds isn't good but I like it once in a while. It's tasted the same my whole life so I guess it's comfort food. Their fries are good. If I eat it more than once in a month I won't want to eat it again for a long time.

Wendy's is the only one of the big three fast food burger places that actually has decent food. Burger King is worse than McDonalds.

It probably helps that I very nearly never order burgers. McDonalds still does a good McMuffin and like most fast food places, can offer a decent salad. Their little chicken wraps were also pretty okay. KFC tastes like when you fry everything in the same grease. Their chicken's sloppy as hell and all their food has this bizarre lack of flavor. Like eating insulation with a greasy aftertaste. Their pot pie is a goddamn gravy soup with bits of tough chicken floating around in it. I don't think mine had any actual vegetables.

Wendy's and Dairy Queen have actual great salads and I outright love Arby's turkey sandwich and curly fries. I wish there was a Popeye's around here so I could have a decent chicken and biscuit every once in a while.

I can't imagine ever ordering a salad from a fast food place. That stuff is almost definitely not fresh and you could probably get a better fresher prepackaged one cheaper at the grocery store.

McDonalds comes under so much scrutiny that its food delivery & prep is generally pretty good. They don't serve pureed chicken beaks and rotten lettuce.

Your average high street grocery store isn't going to be any better.

I guess but you know they are going for the lowest of the low cost fresh stuff at best. Maybe it's just me but when I go to mcdonalds/wendys/burger king i'm not fooling myself, I know I'm going there to eat something unhealthy.

I don't think McDoubles and the regular cheeseburgers are bad. And some of their more expensive burgers are actually okay, but you could actually go to a local burger joint and get a better one for cheaper.

Even as a chubby dude who eats fast food all the time, I think Big Macs are really gross. That new mega-mac they made is an abomination.

I usually like veggies better than meat and prefer them whenever possible. Occasionally I'll get a bum salad, but they're usually pretty good.
I can't be a vegetarian, though. I like fish way too much. Steelhead, rockfish, red snapper, cod, salmon, yeeeesss. :swoon:

e: And catfish! I don't give a poo poo if it's a bottom feeder, fuckers are delicious!

I'm going to eat the hell out of some "stockfish" when I go to Norway in a few months. Honestly "dried cod" sounds very unappetizing, but unpopular opinion: even if a local specialty sounds really gross you're a big baby if you don't at least try it. It can't be that gross if they've all been producing and eating it for so long.

Popeye's is better. Doesn't hold a candle to Bojangles' though.

The reasoning behind dried cod, and lots of other foods like it, is not that it's good (although it might be to some people). They used to make it to so they could have preserved whatever when no other food was available, so gross or not if you wanted to survive you ate it. Then it turned into a tradition.

McDonalds food is fantastic for athletes/weekend warriors. Their burgers have great macronutrient profiles and loads of easy calories. Just ask Usain Bolt.

They should refocus their marketing on the high performance sports demographics rather than the desperate "healthy and wholesome" idea they try to push.

I'll forever remember Chad Ochocinco on Hard Knocks talking about he eats McDonald's every day and that "Super Size Me is a movie. It's fiction."


Although that leads to a possible PHUO: Super Size Me's effect on how people look at fast food is stupid. Who needed a documentary to show them that eating McDonald's for literally every meal every day would gently caress you up?
