    Besmircher.

    Depends on the McDs and who runs it etc. Some are run better than others.

    I can tell you where I live any McDs drivethrough has served me cold fries or a big mac that looks like someone with no thumbs built it.

    If I get hot fries its like a minor miracle.

    Just ask the workers to “drop your food fresh” when you order. Highly recommended for a non beef item like the FOF. Downside it will likely take a few minutes longer.

    #553 2 years ago

    I've never got a precooked one. Worst possibility is the cheese on the bottom of the box.

    11 pages of FOF harmony.....
    Now the halcyon days are gone.
    A FOF schism has split our ranks.
    Ala the Eastern And Western Church.

    The Ketchup infidels... vrs the one true FOF Faithful, with a dispensation for Slivered Onion devotees.

    It will never be the same.

    This too seems quite accurate.
    Can we NOT HAVE unity any longer?!
    Not even with the simple
    delightful deliciousness of the FoF?
    We do indeed live in dark times.

    #561 2 years ago

    My next FoF will be plain with some HP sauce I'm bringing from home. I'm also going to eat it while listening to the theme song from masterpiece theater.

    I think only of the children - shall we damn the future generations with our debauchery? I say nay.

    Let our standards give our offspring hope in a better world.

    I believe the children are our future… teach them well, and let them lead the way.

    See this is what happens as I get older - these kids come in and add stuff like Chicken and HP sauce to their FOF’s and I don’t even know what the hell they are talking about?!

    It happens with each generation apparently. I can’t keep up. I’m old.

    You can't call me a kid if I'm referencing Masterpiece Theater.

    #565 2 years ago

    Yes, we must think of the future and not let things get out of hand! Let the Children run amok and what will it lead to? Hot Fudge & Whipped Cream?

    The Horror!!

    Insolence.

    #569 2 years ago

    If you mush up an apple, put cinnamon in it and cook it to sludge, it's no longer an apple.

    So if people want to take a FoF, mush it in with funny sauces and other condiments, well sure...go ahead.

    But it's no longer a FoF and doesn't belong in a thread devoted to the one true King of Foods.

    They are aberraters.

    Hate to break it to you, but as long as there's a square filet of fish patty in between the buns it's a FoF. Doesn't matter what you put on or take off.

    Just call it a modded FoF if you're that much of a purist.

    Not pleased with the cheese placement but still the classiest FoF I've ever had.

    Quoted from ImNotNorm:

    Cheese placement is better than most Ive had.

    It always cracks me up to find the cheese on top of the bun, as it was thrown on as an afterthought like a garnish...

    It has happened to me on double cheeseburgers too.

    Evidently $25/hr isnt enough to get accurate cheese placement.

    Wtf? $25? AWHAAA?

    Quoted from underlord:

    Wtf? $25? AWHAAA?

    When I bought the $9 egg mcmuffin in San Francisco they were paying $22/hr for 16 year old part timers, starting.

    This was at fishermans wharf.

    lines were out the door at these prices.

    Pinballgoddess says we wont be going back to SF. Too dirty, too expensive, too crowded, not fun.

    Quoted from ImNotNorm:

    It's called tomato sauce here, people put it on food so their kids can't taste the food. That way they get more variety in their kids diet, but the kids think they are eating the same sugar/salt thing all the time.

    Kids usually grow out of it by seven or eight and discover variety in food and unique flavours.

    Everything in it's place.

    Ketchup and mustard = hotdog.

    Tartare sauce = FoF

    Pork chop = apple sauce

    peaches = cream.

    See the pattern emerging?

    Start fucking with it and you'll get peaches and mustard.

    We must have got it from somewhere here in the land of Aus. Hot dogs are either a German or a US thing.

    In any case, the point it the point.

    But if you like it, thats all that matters.

    All those examples and this is the bone you guy's are choosing to pick?

    I'm not an advocate, merely making a point.

    If not the hotdog, then what fucking good is ketchup at all? It's not even part of a Bloody Mary, it's completely orphaned if you take the hotdog away?

    Certainly not listed in the ingredients of a FoF.

    Ahhahahahah! you may be right but,

    Ketchup on a hot dog is a deep controversy in the US, lol.

    I dont think anyone knows why, its just the way it is....

    I also agree as stated above that we may be a bit militant when it comes to condiments.

    However Ranch dressing goes on everything!
