I eat there for the prestige.

Meatball subs are amazing.

A foot long, steak and cheese on Italian herbs and cheese bread with lettuce, green peppers, red onions and jalapeno's. It's fucking lovely.

Try it, thank me later.

I like dominos, but only the barbeque base pizzas.

The Americano pizzas from Dominos are to fucking die for.

Nothing that comes from a Domino's kitchen is worth dying for. I'm sure some have died from it though.

Actually that goes for every fast food kitchen, with the exception of Mcdonalds' McRib.

Everything from McDonalds is rancid and horrible and has to be the most emptiest bit of food I've ever had. I can go in there and spend 6 pounds on a meal and then go home to raid the fridge because I was still hungry. I would be less pissed if it tasted nice to begin with.

I like the McFlurry's now don't get me wrong.

Wings of Fire 05-18-2011 12:30 PM

Essentially I only go for the 'nana shakes.

They took out banana shakes here and replaced them with apple/pear shakes. Fucking digusting, who came up with that crap?

After the third Big Mac his taste buds upped and left I reckon. Fair fucks to the man anyways, he has a stronger stomach than me.

Havoc 05-18-2011 12:34 PM

Didn't his regular Mcdonalds name something after that guy? I remember him from the Supersize Me docu.

YES!

I used to love fast food, with Burger King being my favorite, but now it all makes me feel awful. The only "fast food" place I love is Subway and Quiznos (for those that don't know; like subway but is very heavy on toasting the subs), and even then I don't really consider those to be fast food places since they don't have anywhere near as awful an effect on your body and I end up feeling slow and lazy not from eating badly but from a NICE FULL STOMACH SO GOOD GONNA SLEEP FOREVER.

MeechMunchie 05-19-2011 09:06 AM

I don't like takeaway pizzas. They taste weird. The dough is always sour for some reason.

I ate in McDonald's for the first time in years a few months ago while waiting for a film to start. It was quite nice. Nicer than I remembered, at any rate. They seem to have cleaned up their act a little.

KFC seems like the kind of thing I'd like, but I don't recall ever eating there. I don't really like burgers so I'll probably try it someday.

Fish 'n' Chips is best. Americans don't know what they're missing.

Subway is fine. They make sandwiches and their sandwiches taste like sandwiches. That's about all you can ask from a sandwich. It's not exactly fancy cusine.

Oh, and Max, my sister is vegan so I have experience of trying to find somewhere to eat with her. A lot of places don't mind leaving stuff out if you ask.

EDIT: I also like curry and Chinese food.

I often have to do that, but if their veggie burger or pizza base or pasta sauce or whatever just happens to contain milk, there's no real way around that. Pizza Express will let you have a cheeseless veg pizza, which is about as awesome as it sounds, but better than nothing.

I once ate at a Frankie and Benny's, where the only vegan option was the Caesar salad with the non-vegan bits removed. Hint: That leaves lettuce and tomato.

Crashpunk 05-20-2011 01:37 AM

I have KFC the most. I know they are some veggies on the forums but, I just love it.

I'm pretty sure they have fish and FRIES in America.

Phylum 05-20-2011 03:44 AM

I've never liked burgers. The combination of cardboard-y bread, plastic cheese and shitty meat just puts me off of them. I also detest fatty, greasy foods. I feel ill eating them.

Sometimes I can eat KFC or pizza if I have to. Often they leave me with an upset stomach the morning after. I can manage some Asian fast food places, but most of them either taste odd or are really fatty and greasy to the point where they upset my stomach.

The only decent fast food place around me is Red Rooster, which make good chicken and have lovely chips.

Ridg3 05-20-2011 03:46 AM

KFC is worth all the food poisoning that it gives you becuase it is damn tasty.

moxco 05-20-2011 05:07 AM

I sometimes get cravings for KFC original recipe chicken even though I find the stuff makes me feel sick and doesn't even taste that good anyway. In my city there is a small chain of restaurants called Pizza Capers, though more expensive it tastes rather nice compared to Dominoes and Pizza Hut.

I've asked American friends and they say America doesn't appreciate it in the same way; a bit like cheese or tea.

Havoc 05-20-2011 08:15 AM

That's because Americans don't have good cheese or good tea just like they don't have good beer.

To be fair, they don't actually realise that they don't have good cheese, tea or beer. Or cars. Or consumer electronics. Or... well, you get what I mean.

metroixer 05-21-2011 06:38 PM

I recently went to chick-fil-a, I thought it was just ok. Really overhyped in my area, but apparently they use peanut oil which is a much healthier alternative than the other fast food places so I guess that's a neat plus.

Bitchin fries too

Fair enough. Also, I always find it funny to see Americans in Amsterdam completely zoned out on weed because our weed is like 100 times stronger than the shit they have over there.

Wait. I can sort of agree here...

Is Detroit weed stronger than Amsterdam weed?

DISCLAIMER: I am a weed noob.

Alcar...

Havoc 05-23-2011 07:33 AM

I do know what the fuck I'm talking about, since it happens all over Amsterdam and some weed shop owners actually warn tourists for it when they come in to buy some.

Ridg3 05-23-2011 07:33 AM

But OANST, it's true. Because it's legal in the Netherlands it makes it a hell of a lot more potent. It has nothing to do with the fact that it's readily available and large amounts can be consumed with no law enforcers breathing down your neck.

OANST 05-23-2011 07:34 AM

It all depends on who you buy from. I promise you that our best is just as strong as your best.

Alcar 05-23-2011 07:35 AM

The free market!

Right. Those signs aren't forms of advertising at allllll.

Also hubris.

Also placebo effects.

Not if it's homegrown over there it won't be. I'm sure there's a lot of high grade weed smuggled in from Europe though.

Ridg is right. Growing weed is legal over here, up to the point where there are entire gardening stores specifically for weed plants. You can buy all sorts of plant food and whatever else they use to get the best plants you can. The US 'weed farmers' don't have that luxery and thus their plants are a lot less potent.

A joint can be just as strong, yes, if you put more weed in it. That's where most Americans screw up, because they use the same amount of weed in their joint as they used to do back home. While most people I know who smoke weed use very little in their joints with the rest being regular tobacco.

I wasn't talking about signs.

Havoc 05-23-2011 07:42 AM

OANST 05-23-2011 07:44 AM

But no. Give me an hour and I can find the same potency as you.

Havoc 05-23-2011 08:00 AM

Don't you need some actual Amsterdam weed to compare?

OANST 05-23-2011 08:19 AM

Don't you?

Havoc 05-23-2011 08:49 AM

Nope.

Manco 05-23-2011 09:02 AM

Will you two hurry up and get to the root of the problem so we can weed out the truth.

Either that or you can both leaf.
