    The Fast Food Thread

    Yesterday, I went to Burgerfi for the first time in at least 5 years. It was always on the expensive side--more than standard fast food like McD's and Burger King, but cheaper than Five Guys. I got a burger (which was admittedly really tasty), onion rings, drink, and a kid's combo (cheeseburger...

    I actually 100% agree with this. I can and do eat all sorts of garbage, but there is something weird about Takis. Maybe it's whatever they use to get the neon colors? Whatever it is, it's off-putting and I'll take a Doritos Dinamita over a Taki any day.

    Bennigans' Monte Cristo was the primary reason for my childhood obesity. We went there often and I'd demolish the Monte Cristo every time at like 7 years old.

    Newman's Own pasta sauce is one of the only sauces that tastes good and isn't insanely expensive. You can get jars for like $3.00. The rest of the pasta sauce aisle is filled with Prego/Ragu watery shit for about the same price, or stuff like Rao's that is $7.00/jar for some reason.

    Friendly's is about the worst ice cream you could buy. It's only a tier above those giant buckets of nondescript ice creams that PTA moms buy for school functions. And at least those have nostalgia factor going for them.

    Trader Joes stuff is hit or miss. They've got some awesome frozen stuff, especially if you're into Indian food. However, their chip selection is the worst of any grocery store I've experienced. Super small selection and the ones they have are mostly garbage tier.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Here's a ridiculously in-depth (i.e., it's over 6 hours) video that goes over the history of each Metroid game and summarizes the plots. It's really well made and worth a watch if you're like me and only have a surface knowledge of Metroid. I've dabbled in a few of the games (Metroid, Super...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Lol at this show's writers considering that. They'll probably have him reveal himself as Sauron at the end of the season.

    I've also had a few bags of the Baja Blast Doritos. First bag I was meh, but they've grown on me. Kind of a refreshing, summer taste akin to Cool Ranch, but a bit breezier.

    Real power players use Snactiv. I use it at work to increase productivity without decreasing snacking.

    I saw that same Goldfish display at Giant tonight and thought of this thread.

    Hangry Joe's hot chicken for lunch today. So good. Big ass piece of chicken on the sandwich and the spice level (one under the max) was a perfect combination of flavor and heat.

    I think drive thru is a big reason people still get traditional fast food. People are lazy and pay a bit more to not have to park, walk in, and pick up a to-go order. Plus the expectation of a tip on top of the price (though that is creeping into fast food, too). Curbside pick-up is a thing...

    Weight Loss Thread

    There are a couple things that make it difficult for some people. Self control is one. Especially when eating is an emotional thing, staying regimented even for just one or two meals a day is super hard. Another thing is that "eating whatever the fuck you want for dinner" can mean...
