    McDonald's is only fit for hangover food . . . the kind of hangover where you know whatever you eat is only going to come up anyway.

    I don't care for McDonald's. I prefer McDowell's.

    I don't think he feels the same about you.

    And was that a Coming to America reference?

    Just the thought of a McNugget makes me gag. The "breading" alone is horrific. That's not even accounting for the "meat."

    I have to turn the channel every time that McNugnut commercial comes on where the lady is serving the nuggets as hors' doevres (not spell checking today) with the little toothpicks. No frickin' way.

    Yes, Mikey. It was Coming to America.

    Nope, anything that comes out of that fro-yo-esque machine is not fit for consumption. Sorry, McFlurry/McShake fans. I cleaned those machines as a manager. I know.

    And I still love the mcnuggets (those and the fries are the only things I'll still consume after eight months of McWork), but I always check them thoroughly ... had a dad come back through the drive-thru once with his daughter and her nugget meal. Threw the bag at me and told me to open the nuggets. A crane fly had gotten fried onto a nugget during the oil dunk and was sitting right on top when the little girl opened the box.

    I couldn't look at mcnuggets, let alone eat them, for a year, but i've recently come back around to their horrifically bad goodness.

    So, you only worked there for eight months and managed to reach manager status?

    That doesn't say much for that McD's location.

    I knew watching that movie three times would pay off eventually.

    I think it's safe to say, if you work at just about ANY restaurant and see what goes on in the kitchen you'd never eat out again. If you visit a slaughterhouse and see what goes on, you'll never eat meat again. And if you read about what's in the soil and water most veggies are grown in, you'd never eat those, either.
    So don't think about this stuff too much or you'll starve.

    I didn't eat McNuggets for years until they made them the all white meat again. I bit into one when I was 10 or 11 and it was raw. I have had a raw chicken complex ever since.

    I tried eating them after that, but the dark meat always tasted raw because of the texture, so I can only eat the overly dry white meat nuggets.

    I worked at a dine-in restaurant for years. Never once saw something that would make me wretch.

    Can't say the same for the times during my teenage years when I worked at Subway (before they required gloves) and Dairy Queen, where some of the cooks would serve hamburger patties that had been sitting under the heat lamps for hours.
