Shake Shack is fine if you want an overpriced inferior version of a double double.

Their fries are better than in - n - out in structure, but they taste like you are eating a spoonful of salt with every bite.

Anyway, the best burger I've had in China is this place in Fuzhou that was only open during weekdays. I can't, for the life of me, remember their name. They might not even exist anymore. I ordered from then during 2020.

Side Street in Beijing is pretty good. There's also the notorious QS bar around the corner that has good pizza. If you can brave going into QS.

i had a shackburger once and i found it was merely an overpriced and smaller version of BK's whopper

My wife has had every style of American burger, shake shack, five guys, InnOut, fancy upscale steakhouses, and she hates all of them. Why don't they put seasoning in the meat itself? Why does it just taste of nothing? I don't think hamburgers are even very popular in China - most of those fast food places like Mcds have menus dominated by chicken and pork based sandwiches which anecdotally are more popular.

It's not even primarily because she hates America - she loves southern style breakfast sausages.

I also don't like the concept of "burger". My issue is that it encourage you to eat a full lunch in 3 minutes. It's hard to enjoy a burger slowly. I also don't like open my mouth wide to eat.

While we are on the topic of food wife like, my wife only really like Cracker Barrel and none other American chains. I describe it as sit down, rural themed, warm color palette, comfort food.

lol that obama and hillary guaranteed the end of non-proliferation with Libya long before Trump tore up the Iran deal

every country has nothing to lose and everything to gain by getting nukes
the democrats voted overwhelmingly during the trump administration to sanction iran as soon as obama was out of office

bernie was one of the only holdouts saying uh we shouldnt sanction iran that breaks the deal lol

I like the implication that in an open conflict with the PRC, America would have unfettered access to SK to buy chips and those factories wouldn't be in immediate danger of falling into NK and Chinese hands.

The semiconductor war against China is basically the sequel of Trump's trade war. It's funny no US think tank has written a post mortem of the trade war, because you can't juggle a "win" angle from that mess.
