soylent green anyone?

Just soylent...
 
I'm boycotting Chipotle since they have had several instances, multiple locations of customer food poisoning from bad veges. I can't imagine a food business that can't get a handle on bad produce. The upper management must not give two flips about their customers.

Most of these are from last August... They're have several repeats from what I remember.

Unfortunately it was not just the fault of the restaraunt for not washing the produce properly before serving but also the farmer for using uncomposted waste in his fields and the packaging company for not properly washing it before packaging. Don't forget the failure of the FDA for lack of proper inspections and testing. It was a series of failures from beginning to end.
 
In other fast food news...

That was funny. Yeah, I'll have mine with with toe meat and can you hold the toe nail, and definitly no d!(k meat please. Thank you.

Now you all know this will become some conspiracy theory about DQ that our kids/grandkids will tell each other 20 years from now.
 
so many things make us skeevy if in our "food".
I recall an ep of Seinfeld, "we smell it, we kiss it, we run our fingers through it and put our faces in it, but 1 strand of hair in the oj and we freak out"

Live frog though, yeah, i have to go with "ewwwww"

Oh, so you prefer your salad frogs dead. Okay.
 
mutilated monkey meat. that's what we always said as kids (and sadly, now my kids say that :) )

I remember something like this:

big green gobs of greasy, slimy gopher guts
mutilated monkey meat
little birdies' bloody feet...and me without my spoon.

Now why do I remember that from 50-some years ago, but can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday?

We sang Johnny Verbeck. Probabably need to be Dutch and from Holland MI to know that one.

Bun seed sesame a on onion pickles cheese lettuce sauce special patties beef all two.

Tell me about it. I can still recite the backwards Bic Mac promo 40+ years ago, but I can’t remember why I just walked into this room.
 
The dutch members of our forum probably know about Johny Verbec

My buddy and I could say that one (forwards) in a burp. As two obnoxious teens, we learned to gulp air and talk that way. BTW, the promo was that if you said it to the counter staff, you'd get a free burger. Just about everyone learned it cause, free!

Great big gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts
little dirty birdy feet
chopped up monkey meat
pale pink piles of petrified porpoise puss
all without my spoon

Boy Scouts. East TN. 50 years ago. Ah.
 
Not sure I'd consider fast food/counter service to be any worse than a sit down place. They are all kind of hit and miss across the menu. If you only knew the contents of the bags of food in the coolers and stock rooms of restaurants out there...
I avoid counter service. It's not always bad (e.g., Chick Fil-A is pretty good). I just am never in that much of a hurry to eat, and I don't like eating out of a bag or in my car or similar. I'm not passing judgement on others that do - but it gives me the shudders.

About 10 ago we went to a nice sit-down restaurant down on Main Street and my 3 year old daughter was served chicken that was still frozen in the middle. They apologized, but that's about it. A few months later we gave them another chance and this time my daughter got some kind of gel pill (like below) in her fruit salad. When we pointed it out, they were skeptical, like WE had put it in there to get something free. Needless to say, we haven't been back. Even though it has changed it's name twice since then.

There's reason why anxiety riddled germophobes don't eat out at restaurants.
