We don't watch much TV but while on vacation our boy who was 6 at the time saw the ad for the spicy chicken fries that will "set your mouth on fire". He thought that was awesome and didn't think I could eat them as I have a taste for spicy.

Next time we were at Burger King I got some to make a point. I had one and he asked if it was spicy and I said no, so he ate one and then immediately got up ant started stomping to the counter saying "They ripped us off these are not what they said on TV and they should give out money back!". I had to catch him. He does not believe commercials so much these days.

and no you don't need to chime in and tell us how amazing your diet is and how you never eat fast food. We already know. You're amazing.



That is not food

Awesome, that should save him a lot of aggravation later on.

I balk at the word "cheese". That processed yellow ooze is not real cheese.

It's probably closer to cheese than those triangle thingys are to chickens

Seems to me Arby's had a coffee milkshake that was not bad. I like the commercials for Carl's Jr

Those chicken nugget things are a bit unsettling, don't care for cheetos much, except for the set your ass on fire flavor cheetos, those are decent.

Yep, occasionally can't resist temptation and will buy a bag of the Flaming Cheetos and eat the whole thing in one sitting and wash it down with an ice cold Coke.. hard to hid the fact though as your fingers are reddish orange for the rest of the day. As that "cheese", need a degree in chemistry to read the ingredients as there is nothing natural in it.

Arby's actually has some decent food but they are few and far between.

For fast food we usually eat at Culvers, sometimes Wendy's or Taco Johns.

I have not been able to eat the flaming Cheetos, something tastes off on them. I have on occasion eaten a whole back of these.

While we are on the subject of fast food, try the Arby's BLT. It is really quite good. And so is the Reuben there. Your star status in skinny jeans and fish face selfies be damned, you gotta live for the now, sometimes.

I would scarf down two orders of either, er, both(?) and love them.

However, dropping $3 for the chicken strips when a Crunch Wrap Supreme is fifty cents more seems a shame.

Alternatively, if you are trying to maintain a 270 lb body weight, you can buy three McChickens and get plenty of that salty MSG-like breading that makes your heart go giddy-up.

Also, three Crispy Chicken Jr's at Wendy's
.......... 3 Spicy Chickens at BK.

Now that's some real food.

What confuses me is that the stuff they sell for chicken has to be dirt cheap, pennies per sammich. Why didn't they make the chicken dippers with a bit more girth. They are slivers.

Only available for a couple months each year, but their fish sandwich is way better than other fast food joints.

Truth in advertising. It's pretty sad when they have to remind you that the stuff is actually food.

Even the big boys don't say it's "cheese"

I think it's been 20-25 years since I had a McD's chicken McNugget. I will admit that I've probably had 10-15 McD's "Double Quarter Pounder w/cheese"'s in that time though. I think it's been at least 4-5 years though.

They just look wrong to me. I've never had one.


These, however, are the bees knees!!!

Those aren't bad, but I'd rather have.


Or even better (the best really)!!!
