I’ve been in 3 different airports in the past 24 hours. This hits hard
This happened to me recently. Tried a Vietnamese place that is literally twice as expensive as my usual Vietnamese place, and it was much, much worse. Sad times. I’m also a total food snob though
I’ve got a pho place near me that just raised their prices. Instead of $10 for a five lb meal, I now pay $12. I’m okay with that.
Demiurge bless the Asian dives!
A Vietnamese takeout place just opened near me and I gave it a shot. Went in to pick up the food and it was all white people and I knew it wasn’t going to work out. I was not disappointed in my negativity. It was like these people had watched a single TikTok video on Vietnamese cuisine and decided to open a restaurant. Probably just a front for laundering drug money.
Yeah,idk how red and yellow m&m went to City 17 but the food their is shit.
Me after trying Raising Canes for the first time.
It’s barely better than school cafeteria food.
I call it replicator chicken. It looks perfect, striking you as having been cooked in pristine oil, is consistent and properly fried, but then when you taste it you get the world’s blandest recipe. It’s really like a well-meaning computer’s idea of chicken tenders.
The sauce is decent, and utterly necessary, but it’s really not worth it, even within the space of fast-casual chicken fingers. I prefer Layne’s or even Zaxby’s.
The chicken is ‘fine/meh’ but their sauce is awful. I have no idea who the fuck thought that concoction was pleasant or the rows of theoretical taste-testers that clearly lack taste buds, but shit they should be forced to dip everything in that slew for the rest of their lives. Actually genuinely an abomination.
I tried it on several occasions from different locations, but it sucks all the same.
Popeyes is where it’s at.
Maybe in 2018
Shots fired.
Oh god I was so disappointed in it cause everyone kept saying it was so good
thank y’all for y’all’s sacrifices o7
At least in my case it was catering that I didn’t pay for, so the loss was of my appetite and my positive thoughts about the brand lol
I’m a ride-or-die Zaxby’s bitch.
It is cafeteria food. The attraction is Cane Sauce. It’s literally the only thing that elevates the food. Cane’s is the worst fried chicken recipe.
Someone should probably tell then that the sauce is even worse
It honestly sounds like you went to a bad franchise.
The fries are always awful, though.
This is funny to me. We got one here a couple of years ago. My adult son eats there and loves it. I haven’t eaten out since the pandemic, so I haven’t tried it.
Don’t
McDonald‘s nowadays.
This honestly does not fit. $5 for a burger, fries, nuggets and a drink. I hate myself for doing it, but there just isn’t cheaper food.The next best thing is paying maybe $8 (if you’re lucky) for a frozen pizza that you need at least a half hour of time for.
I really do hate it, but trying to paint McDonald’s as overly priced right now makes me think that you are either very out of touch, you have never had to live on truly bad food for long periods of time, or you’re just posting this to get people to agree with you.
I’m not from the US, over here it’s really expensive for really crappy food.
That’s more than fair. I think I had mild dyslexia when reading your username xD.
It used to be that McD’s was shit, but at least it was fast and cheap.
Now it’s still shit (maybe even worse), but also quite expensive … and it’s not even that fast anymore.
It stopped being fast years ago, precovid even. Pretty much as soon as delivery services became popular as those got higher priority than people being in the restaurant, the waiting times become equal to an actual restaurant.
Last drop for in restaurant was 45 minutes of waiting.Price rose somewhere in between there and now as well and by now even delivery isn’t fast.
Last drop with delivering was about a year ago, it was still kinda last minute quick back up option when coming from somewhere late in the evening and being rather tired to cook as i could order while I still on the road towards home.
It still took about an hour to arrive, most of the time was in cooking.
I could have reached home and still easily cooked something up at home and it would have been faster.By now MCD is as expensive and slower than an actual restaurant with every possible way of ordering. So i don’t even consider this as an option when out with the family.
I’ve started comparing everything to the $30+ for underwhelming Sonic food recently. Since then, things that have been the same price or less:
-
1x smoked pork sandwich, 1x smoked brisket sandwich, 1x large mac and cheese ($32ish)
-
1x turkey/dressing/cranberry sauce, 1x rice and gravy, 1x baked chicken, 1x mashed potatoes, 2x macaroni, 2x yeast rolls, 1x peanut butter pie, 1x lemon pie ($35)
-
Buy one, get one free wood-fired pizzas after 10 PM near me. Two pizzas for $14.95.
Fuck fast food. Try your local places. Deals are out there and you meet people.

Grocery store deli counter can be an incredible place to get very good and affordable food, just saying.
I like the free pieces of meat they give me.
“Actually, I’m all good now. You already fed me, SUCKERS!”
Some of the Home Depots in my area (Philly) have places in the parking lot that sell cheesesteaks and sausage sandwiches and they’re really fucking good. I would go there every day and the guy would double-stuff my sausage sandwich and even give me like a 6" link to eat while waiting for it. It was just too much – I was already full after eating the sample.
Support the bourbon chicken place at your local mall food court (spiritually, not financially).
I’ve heard all white people look the same, so they’ll probably never even realize.
I work fast food, and I could swear that I see the same 10 people over and over again, sometimes within 15 minutes of each other. I know they’re not the same people, but I couldn’t pick any of them out of a lineup. Most of them don’t have any characteristics that stand out, colored hair helps though. Maybe I just have an awful memory.
Depends on the grocery store and how loss leader they’re playing. Giant eagles fried chicken remains an incredible deal for such an overpriced store. Wegmans by comparison ain’t going to save you a buck on prepared food but it’ll usually be pretty good.

All food is shit eventually.
imma eat candy to prove you wrong
Prove me wrong by turning candy into shit? 🤔
Candy is just sugar, that is all breathed out.
Then why does cotton candy give me diarrhea?
Because food needs over a day to digest.
Because you touch yourself at night!
No thats me
candy doesn’t turn to shit, it is 100% absorbed into the body and eventually burned during metabolism and expelled through the lungs as CO2.
No it’s not who told you that
It is digested, then carried through the bloodstream to the spinal column where it is extracted for sweet, sweet scientific research.
