In-n-Out review!

Terribly sorry for the lack of new info! I fell into a lengthy food coma after that gigantic 4x3 from In-n-Out Burger.

So; what I ended up getting what a 4x3 (Secret Menu Item) from In-n-Out without tomato. I'll let the record show that if it has tomato on the sandwich, I'll usually always order it without. Sometimes I get a hair up my butt and I'll want to om nom something with Tomato on it; but those are rare occasions and usually don't involve handled foods like sandwiches.

I also ordered Animal Fries (Another secret menu item) as you can see up top.

My fiance got the standard Double Double and regular fries.

Let me just say; holy crap. "Quality you can taste" is an understatement. It's fantastic! I finished my burger... which I can't believe I did. The cheese was melty. The bun was soft but toasted. The meat was cooked and wasn't horribly greasy but still drippy enough I opted for a napkin afterwards.

Even though I hit the food wall; I powered through it and the fries. And then some of my ladies fries as well.

To down it I had Dr. Pepper; my drink of choice. Liz got a medium drink. Side-by-side comparison below.

I haven't eaten at In-n-Out since; but it's been more a factor of me trying to lose weight... Or else I would have indeed returned twenty times since eating.

5.5/5 In-n-Out! You may have Five Guys beat. But we'll do a head-to-head if they ever get that Reno Five Guys opened soon.

KFC, BK and Pot(pies)

Today I grabbed some KFC. I've finally conceded that KFC chicken strips have gotten much shorter and smaller.

This is so they can use the same ingredients to make the snackers. I won't fault them there.

Their Mac and cheese is still amazing. I could eat buckets of the stuff.

BKs Chefs Choice Burger is an honest attempt at bringing their hamburgers to par with sit down restaurants like Applebee's and Red Robin. The bun is pretty good but overly filling. The sauce they use is a nice compliment but leaves the burger much to be desired on customization. It is the chefs choice after all.

My final note; The Chicken Pot Pies from KFC are every bit as sleazy as that 70s commercial implies. The chicken used is old, stale and essentially recycled from chicken that would have gone discarded at the end of the day. Its garbage in a foil cup with some raunchy bread over top. DO NOT EAT.  Well. That's all folks!

Awkward Absence: RESOLVED!

Alright, alright. So I've been away for a bit; avoiding fast food for some time. Well; that's not entirely true. I've really been busy with my company; planning an interstate move and getting my head back together after slaving away at a Call Center job dealing with angry iPhone customers who finally realized what pieces of junk their devices were.

Well, now that that's out of the way, I have grand news!

First; I'm moving out of dreary, rainy Seattle and into a sunnier and drier climate. Once there; I will begin my first quest to the elusive In and Out Burger! Once there; I will grace this blog with my review of the 4x4; something I have been meaning to eat for some time. Will I be able to finish it? Who knows? I scarf down Monster Burgers from Hardees/Carl's Jr. well enough (because I'm tubby).

I have also taken to sampling mobile fast food joints, those popular lunch trucks in which many during their work day enjoy.

Also; with new video equipment I am able to bring to you LIVE my exploits in fast foodery. <---- Just added that to my dictionary. Learn it.

So; we will see what the next few weeks brings soon! Stay tuned!

Fast Food Apps!

Today and today alone there is a free Paid android app in the Amazon App store! It actually tells you the nutritional value of the fast food you've eaten! Pretty good for those restaurants not carrying their nutrition lists.

Shorted

My local McDonald'sshorted me 14 pieces on my meal. Grrrrrrrrr. No pieces on the large fries.

McNopoly!

Yes! I've been waiting for this day for nearly a year! McDonalds Monopoly game starts today! Headed there right now.

To score the most pieces, I'm ordering a 20 piece McNugget, LG Fry and a medium drink. Also, Fillet of Fish, McCafe drink and Big Macs. For breakfast, sausage-egg McMuffins, hashbrowns and oatmeal give pieces too. 10 piece McNuggets only give 2 pieces, where the cheaper-by-capita 20 piece has 4 peals.

For now, I'm off!

Check back in when I get done!
