When I die I want there to be no mistake as to why.

They'll look at me and say...

he ate too much...

drank too much...

and generally had a good time.

What are you saving yourself for?

You feel a need to be a beautiful corpse?

Get a real good undertaker.

I am 56 years old, live in the USA and I have never, ever eaten at a McDonalds. Ever. Not even a soda or a single frie. Nothing against MickeyD. Just like I have never been skydiving. No biggie. I want to be the last person in this country to have never eaten at a McDonalds. I actually have never even set foot inside one. Got that going for me. It's going on my tombstone!

...and then some some people will do anything for one.

After seeing that this:




...is what Chicken McNuggets start out as....



....then learning that they are soaked in ammonia, colored, and "given" flavor - I refuse to go anywhere near McDeathHouse.

UPDATE, 10/4/10: The story has been amended to reflect that although mass produced chicken nuggets at large may contain mechanically separated chicken, McDonald's famous McNuggets no longer do contain "mechanically separated poultry as defined by the federal government. The USDA now requires foods with mechanically separated poultry to be labeled as containing "mechanically separated chicken or turkey" in their ingredients lists.

Based on the color...

it doesn't look like they 'separated' anything.

Interestingly, that is what turkey bacon looks like while it is being processed too.

Now let's get back talkin' 'bout McRibs.

[superjohn]

If you have a cooperative McDonald's have them dip a McChicken filet into the rib sauce.

That was one of my favorite employee meals back in the day.

How long ago did you work there?

I worked there in HS, when you still had to "flip" the burgers.

We used to have all kinds of fun.

Races on who could flip six patties the fastest (yes, we used stop watches), who could dress 3 Big Macs the quickest, how long we could keep a quarter pound patty on the grill before a manager yelled at us, what happens when you throw pickles in the deep fryers, etc.
