    Im a Wendy's lover but mcdonalds filet fish is so yummy to me. I have pass mcdonalds every time I go to and from my gym but I stock my fridge with wonderful food now so I take a second and ask myself which would be more satisfying? 9 times out of 10 home cooked wins.

    This! I used to love me some fast food breakfasts, but I discovered I can make better ones at home with just a few tweaks: turkey sausage patties, egg whites, extra thin cheese, and high fiber english muffins. Now, it's easier to keep driving by instead of driving through!

    The granddaughter of a friend of mine works at McDonald's, and she, and half of the people she works with, won't eat there. As for me, on the rare occasion that do I eat there, I do the double quarter pounder. There are three local places that serve up much better stuff for a couple of dollars more. Well worth the difference.

    Sounds pretty normal. Most people I knew that worked in a limited menu restaurant, fast food or otherwise, stopped eating their because they could eat for free and would get sick of it. I used to work at a Coca-Cola bottling plant and we had all the free Coke products we could drink. I prefer Pepsi brands now.

    I worked a lot of food places before I finished school TGIFridays was the only place I took my lunch. But even when I worked at a place I had formerly loved the food... you get sick of any of it.

    Guess it's true that familiarity breeds contempt.

    I ate so much crab and lobster that I would much rather have a fricking burger. But yes, that explains much of marriage as well.

    If I want a burger, it's Five Guys or one of the local places for me. Even then, it's a rare event.

    Oh yes, Five Guys is the bomb. If you actually like McDonald's and find it "worth the calories," then you can fit those calories into your eating regimen. :flowerforyou:

    Not to go off topic too much, but we have two places in my part of NJ, 25 Burgers and Cheeburger Cheeburger that kick Five Guys' ***.

    Not that I think they're any healthier than McD's of course, but the quality is far far better. ;)


    We had a Cheeburger Cheeburger here. Best, thing, ever!

    Their fries are nasty IMO. My all time favorite is still Nifty Fifties.
