I think Wendys does too.

My order is always Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit, add mayo. Really brings it together and solves the dryness issue with the biscuit. If, they aren’t too busy I’ll occasionally ask for a “round egg”. I prefer the McMuffin style egg over the scrambled. There’s always some back and forth when I try to order it that way, so I only do it when it’s slow.

Ever ask for a side of syrup or use ketchup? That might work too!

I do remember that! And I think I loved the SHAPE of the egg, even though I dind’t necessarily like the egg itself (def didn’t like the scrambled one).

The mayo sounds like a great idea.

Can’t wait to see partner’s face when I surprise him w/ McD’s for breakfast. Bwahahahahahaha…

Exactly at 1030, one can order both the Filet-O-Fish, AND a hash brown.

Or order the hash brown at 10:29 on the app and then order a FoF when entering the store.

Heavy handed is the truth. Were lucky enough to try it up here in Moorpark.

Double quarter pounder with cheese no ketchup, no mayo, sub Big Mac sauce :raised_hands:

Unfortunately not available any near here, but the best fast food burger I have ever had is Crown Burgers Salt Lake City Utah. Discovered it by accident when I was stranded in Salt Lake on the way to a Montana Christmas.
That said locally it’s either In-N-Out or Five Guys. In-N-Outs fries are not good, Five Guys are better but not McDonald’s quality. Shake Shack is pretty good. Hi Ho’s meat is excellent, but the fries are greasy.

In-N-Out doesn’t seem like fast food to me.

Why not?
It is cheaper and faster than many other unanimously accepted fast food joints.

By my definition, fast food means they save time by using factory-prepped frozen ingredients, some of which may be unlike anything you’d find in a supermarket, and they make things ahead at rush times, so your burger might come from a warming shelf.

In-N-Out makes everything on site from regular fresh ingredients like you could buy at a supermarket, and your burger is cooked to order.

Ohmigod, I had a McRib at some point during the pandemic, and it was DISGUSTING. So gross. Sauce was sweet and thick, and i don’t know on what planet that meat qualifies as “rib.”

But I still plan to try the sausage breakfast biscuit sometime in the near future. :slight_smile:

Hate to admit it… but that’s not my jam. :disappointed:

But I won’t disparage anyone who does like it!

I don’t disagree. It’s soft pork nugz in disguise.

Yup, “restructured meat” is very evocative and totally accurate…
