The Fast Food Thread

Had the new grilled trout at Captain D's. Not bad not bad. Not as good as how I used to have trout which was to catch it out of a stream and be cooking it over a fire a hour later but it was tolerable. Still think the salmon with grilled shrimp is best there.

You just described all fast food ever.

Yeah that's ridiculous. Even nice restaurants around here won't cost that much for a burger, fries, and shake.

Had the rib Thickburger from Hardee's (still sitting in booth as I write this.)
It was good, but expensive over $7 for just a sandwich is no bueno
Fries (I get free combos - there aren't fries on Burger) are like a crispier version of shitty public school fries

The bun was a sweet compliment to the sauce. It was overall good, but I came hungry and ate it fast. I could easily do two.
Just get the 3cheese from Arby's
5.25/10

Fast food BBQ never seems good. It's always just over-sauced low quality meat.

I prefer a little meat with my bbq sauce.

I'm withdrawing my support from the rib burger I think.

First one was pretty good being a standard single. Rib was small but seemed to flavor whole burger and was still 30-40% of the burger.

Today I did the 1/3 thickburger version........ same size rib thing if not smaller. And on the thick fattass burger it's I bet not even 25% of the surface area. It's like a fucking gherkin sized nugget. If I could I'd just get a "$6" burger and have them make it as the rib burger without the $1.50 markup gherkin nugget.

This is why my mind is so blown by the Arby's Pork Belly sandwich. It's one actual piece of 100% real pork. It's not huge, probably only weighs a few ounces at most. But it's not "mechanically separated" or whatever the fuck they call the way they process things like the McRib.

I assume they are a regional product found exclusively in the Pacific Northwest.

Hey, don't taint all of the Northwest because of one bad apple. I'm in the Seattle area and never once have I seen vegan hot pockets!

Holy crap. I weep for humanity.

McD: Crispy Chicken Sweet BBQ on Artisan. 5/10. (Go sesame)

Apparently McD's is getting rid of the Hi-C Lavaburst Orange. I still get that every now and then, it's a huge throwback to childhood.
