RedThree: Hey has anyone come into this thread to say how they don't eat fast food?

Because if *I* were a douche, I'd do that. After all, why read the thread, if you didn't eat fast food at all?

/"How was your day, Bob?"
//"I DON'T OWN A TELEVISION"


I WILL NEVER BUY A TOYOTA !

as a diabetic this is good news for me. it's the damn buns and their deadly carbs that I can't handle - a protein/fat sandwich is just the ticket! i might even get to have a couple of fries for a change!

I'm pretty sure it didn't.

TheOnion: Double down = 540 calories
Big mac = 540 calories

That doesn't make it good for you, but it's surprisingly not far worse, and comparable to other common items. Unless the calorie count is wrong. I'm frankly shocked it's not a lot more caloric.


You have to compare it to other items of its size. The Big Mac is (or at least was, at one point) the largest fast food hamburger you could buy. I'm betting this item is much smaller, something like a normal single patty fast food hamburger size. So while it may have the same number of calories as a Big Mac, you're not going to eat just one of these things and be done with it. You're going to get 2, or at least 1 and another sandwich or side.

I thought this would be about the McRib. What is pictured in the link is not a farking sandwich at all.

MAYORBOB: Why bother with the non-necessity of chicken or bacon flavor? Go straight to the source and let it go straight to the hips.



Because happy, healthy people agree:


Actually, the human body does not store excess fat calories as body fat. This is why "Atkin's" type diets work the way they do.

digistil: skinink: Hey, sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie, but I'd never know 'cause I wouldn't eat the filthy motherfarker. Pigs sleep and root in shiat. That's a filthy animal. I ain't eat nothin' that ain't got sense enough to disregard its own feces.

So intelligence correlates with tastiness, g2k. How do humans taste?


According to one robot, humans taste like bacon and prosciutto. (new window)

Yep. I'm still going to try one, just so I can be disgusted but full. Apparently, one "doubles down" on self-loathing just by biting into one.

Reminds me of an old Fark Photoshop contest where the theme was if you won the lottery, what would you buy. Someone Photoshopped a a 50 patty whopper, and as you scrolled down to the bottom, there was a bottle of Pepto Bismol.

I'll still pass. I'd rather eat one of my Uncle's homemade "Heart attack on a bun"- Double Cheeseburger with pork roll, sausage & bacon, Lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup & mayo.

yuuuuummmm
 
2010-04-04 01:17:40 PM
I would like a fried chicken breast, covered in cheese and honey mustard, with cooled Pancakes as the bun. Add bacon, tiny chopped up green olives, and a small amount of stripped pork. Voila. Die happy.

/why even put veggies and mayo on it? I have not yet found a Slawburger I liked

Subby Fails. The greatest fast food sandwich, is, and always will be the McRib. Unless, they manage to slather this thing with bbq sauce, then my proclamation may have to be reversed.

I'll have mine with a side order of cole-slaw, some Lisinopril, and a dash of Nifedipine.
 
2010-04-04 01:57:16 PM
mbillips: This is probably healthier than most fast food, since it's the sugary carbs in the bread that do more damage to you than the fat and cholesterol. Substitute ham for the bacon and it's just chicken cordon bleu for lazy people.

You made my point exactly.

isn't that the original from Red Robin?

If you think this looks good, then why not go to the farkING GROCERY STORE, buy a couple of pieces of (quality) chicken, fry 'em up, and put some (quality) bacon and cheese between them, and chow down?
I guarantee it will taste 1000 times better than any garbage KFC can make, and it will be healthier for you too.

ChadM89's chicken sandwich:

1. Pound out a boneless, skinless chicken breast to a thickness of roughly 1/4 inch.

2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook two rashers of thick-cut bacon. Remove bacon and set aside.

3. Season chicken breast with kosher salt and fresh-ground black pepper, cook in bacon fat. Remove chicken and set aside.

4. Pour out excess fat from pan, but do not wipe out, leaving a thin layer. Put back over heat.

5. Place two slices of rye bread (what type is your choice, I use russian rye) in the pan. On one slice of bread, apply swiss cheese. On the other, liberally apply thousand island. When the bread is properly browned and crispy, remove from pan.

6. Layer on chicken and bacon, then add sauerkraut. Close sandwich.

7. Thank me later. And try not to eat one for every meal. It's not horrible for you, but you probably shouldn't eat it for every single meal, as you will want to.

Do not eat at KFC! They are liars and have not taken responsibility for their lawbreaking! They did that whole oprah thing and many people including me never received anything, even after submitting the raincheck properly and spending money on a stamp and gas for the car. BOYCOTT KFC!!!

Life is too short to eat disgusting crap. This doesn't mean you have to eat "bunny food." It means, eat good food. Enjoy it. Take time to actually TASTE it.

It's sad to see people inhaling garbage while sitting at their desks or eating pre-made, pre-fried, frozen then re-fried, heat-lamped, greasy piles of disgusting goo all wadded up in a paper & foil wrapper by some snotty, pimply-faced kid who made it after taking a dump and popping a zit without then washing his hands!

Take time, relax, calm your mind, eat something fresh, that is pleasing to look at, smells wonderful, and then makes you thankful you have taste buds. When you finish, you will be rested, relaxed and recharged and you'll be able to accomplish more than the drone sitting at his desk trying to work while eating a pile of gack indistinguishable from the grease.

It has nothing to do with it being kosher, and everything to do with being delicious, delicious salt. It's not bitter like table salt.
