I'm glad you ok Mama.

Thank you and thank you also to Cathy.

I'm not a big fast food junkie - maybe that is why.

But I have had several experiences with food courts, fast food joints, etc.

I think they are out to get me cuz I'm a homemade cook - or else my innards are spoiled.

Most likely!!!

Off subject but: Do you remember when they 1st came out with Mountain Dew? There was a slogan printed on the outside that said "It'll tickle your innards"! I remember the first time I ever saw that and I burst into laughter!!!


You just made me think of that Mama, maybe your innards only get tickled when it's home-cooked foods only! Hey that slogan gave me an idea for a new thread! Go see it....I will call it Jingles by jinky!!!

I very rarely eat from those places, mainly because they are pants. I will have something from there if I really strapped for time.

A big whoppa or big Mac or Colonel Sanders, not for me. I don't think the franchise travels well.

If you American folk ate one of the Whoppas or big Macs in the UK you would be horrified. They are served tepid, the filled buns have really been hanging around in a warmer somewhere or a very long time. The salad, if you can call it that is warm, limp and watery.

The only thing that is nice is a thick shake, and only then when I have a sore throat.

I admit... I'm a sucker for fast-food! Maybe it's just that cooking for one is just so impractical.

My favs are KFC and Popeye's fried chicken, and McDonald's DOUBLE Quarter-Pounders! Also- have you tried McDonald's new Angus burgers? I love the Mushroom & Swiss!

I've only suffered food poisoning twice in my life- and both times it was from the buffet at Pizza Hut. I have to say- for chain pizza, I still love Pizza Hut, though!
