(My mind just flashed to George Carlin's skit on "Yo-UGGGGHhhurt". 2=^>) I have not been to a McDonald's since they dropped cherry pies permanently. The do still have Lava-apple fritter pies (outside temp. = 70oF, inside temp. = FACE OF THE SUNoF). Their fries are usually nasty now, too. I remember when they were crispy on the outside, not too salty or soggy, and tender and potatoey on the inside. Now they are lank, greasy, limp ex-potatoes. RIP potato, Viva french fry. A zit in every bite. MMMMMMmmmmmMMMM. Heck, I shouldn't have ever eaten there, but I remember when I was small how great going to McD's used to be. Tell me, did my tastebuds grow in all of a sudden or has the food gotten really wretched OR do all the McD's in Atlanta belong to franchisees who have no concept about how to make the chow right? I wonder. IIIII ----- |___| ObASCII: it's minimalist french fries. "
