But what is the carbon footprint of a Big Mac may I ask?

I know where I’m getting lunch today. Maybe if I get two large fries I’ll be extra healthy. If I throw in an apple pie, I should be able to lift a car!

They still don’t taste as good as they did back in the day when they were fried in what I believe the company called Fomula 47, which was 97% beef fat.

Now those were good eating.

Maybe this is why the fries lately have not tasted as good. I try not to eat fast food too much, but when I do lately, you can tell there is a difference. Just isn’t as tasty, probably because the health nannies are after the industry. Wouldn’t surprise me if their sales go down.

Their fries taste like crap. I get a wierd chemical after taste so I’ve just quit going. I used to love their fries but ever since they’ve started wearing kneepads for the food natzis I’ve been going somewhere else. Their old deep fried cheery and apple pies were excellent with a cup of coffee in the morning.

Whataburger is where I go now. I’ve discovered they have the deep fried pies and haven’t kissed the A$$hole of the food natzis.

Fox News material must be excerpted in all circumstances. Leaving off the last three short sentences of a short article does not count. Please try and shoot for 50%.

Here in my area is a new chain called Five Guys Burgers and Fries. Very simple menu, just burger/ cheeseburger/ baconburger/ bacone cheeseburger, plus fries and drink.

They use peanut oil for their fries and everything tastes good.

They also taste like cardboard now. They must have changed their breakfast sausage too because now it tastes like cardboard too. I switched from Sausage Egg and Cheese biscuits or Sausage Egg McMuffins at McDonalds to Sausage Egg and Cheese Croissantes at BK.. That’ll show ‘em.

It is the methane footprint the whackos are worried about with cows. Of course, a $1 tax on each hamburger will fix that.

McDonald's has lagged other restaurant operators in switching over to a zero-trans-fat cooking oil out of worries it would compromise the taste of its trademark fries

It did. Now they taste like nothing. You can make them taste like ketchup, but that's the best you're going to get.

Ever since I read this line in Fast Food Nation I have been unable to eat at McDonald's:

"There's s*** in the meat."
