but seriously, food standards in mcdonald are ridiculous, i dont belive in all these chickenheads or fingernails in burger or anything like that. after 15 min burger ends in the garbage (at least here). its not any worse than any other 'healthy' crap which u can find on the shelf. the only serious issue with that kind of food is the amouth of salt.

EDIT- grandma makes u fatter faster than any fast food

after 15 min burger ends in the garbage

fuck yeah!

Sounds like overkill, I can cook fried chicken by only rolling the chicken once then throwing it into the fryer. Doesn't need to be dripping grease to taste good. In fact it's the opposite.

Well when it comes to deep fried chicken it's all about how it's breaded. Breading once will result in (if I'm doing it myself at home) what I normally go for, and that is a thin outer layer of reasonably crispy breading.

But if you want a soft outer layer, you have to go to a lot more trouble. Same thing for if you want extra crispy.

It's kinda funny how something as simple as the breading has such a huge effect on the final product.

True story.

forb, do u know recipie for KFC chicken 'coating' ?

I'm no pro chef by any means.

I've experimented with making fried chicken in two ways, first one(most successful for me) is using potato flour. Second way is with bread crumbs which tends to fall off in the oil.

With potato flour I get a very crispy result just applying it once.

I don't believe fast food is less healthy than any other greasy and salty food. Perservatives are used in a lot of products you get from a grocery store, and thats a whole another topic. What troubles me in McD is the amount of trash the meals come with. If you take a meal home, it fills a small trashcan by itself. >_>


Kebab wins the international fast food franchises in both quality and price!

Aussies have effing greasy fish and chips

I'm not saying the burgers are bad because life doesn't spontaneously start on them. I'm saying they are bad because not a single animal, insect of whatever dares to touch them.

Most animals and insects know what is good and bad to eat much better than we do. This has been proven in many scientific studies. It also makes sense if we closely look at what they eat and at what we eat.

Tons of bugs eat carion and fecal matter. You should try it

They eat that but they don't eat the hamburgers. You're only making my point stronger.

I rather wonder what would happen if I left 2 patties outside(cooked of course)

i have two guesses.
1) beef golem
2) angry panda

McDonalds or similar joints are pretty shitty, other types of fast food are better. Both in food quality, and in socioeconomical effects. To say that working at McDonalds is some kind of boon to young people is just ridiculous, they might have a chance at working at a much nicer fast food places if shitty places like that didn't dominate the market.

Pizza, kebab, or small independent grills selling burgers/hotdogs/makkaraperunat/etc. are much better.

No goddamnit I can't tell you how many times I tried to sneak out a bad of original recipe seasoning, but it's actually fairly difficult to do.

Moreover, the bag doesn't have anything on it but the kfc label. It's a pretty closely guarded secret. Now, as advanced with cooking as I am, if I could taste the raw powder again I am fully confident that I could re-create it.

Use ritz cracker crumbs or corn flakes. Both will stick pretty well. Additionally do it this way. Get your chicken wet, then put a semi light dusting of flour over it, get it wet again, spread cracker crumbs over it. Let it sit for a minute or 2, then dump it in the grease. Results not guaranteed but it should turn out pretty much the way you want.

Interesting things is, I know a lot about deep frying, but I rarely ever do it myself. I almost always grill. I do like fried stuff tho.

On a sidenote, did you know that you can make grilled potato fries? Shits good too.

@johan, they also cost a shitload more too. Where else can you get a full stomach for 2 bucks?

You barely get a lone cheeseburger for that money here... :/ McDonalds costs about as much as everything else.

Though, in university cafeteria you get a nice meal for just 2,5e but that's ofc not for everyone.

remember that time we chatted on the lobby and you kept having to run off for five minutes at a time because you'd eaten taco bell? a full stomach is worthless if it empties in an involuntarily spasm less than an hour later

what are you buying to "fill" with $2 anyways?

i'd say a more reasonable price to examine is probably $5, comparing a whole meal from a fast food franchise to one from an independent; as long as you're not visiting restaurants that are catering to the gourmet, then the price should be about the same

maybe my city is different but i can think of 5 delicious independent restaurants within a 6 block radius that i can order a $5 dinner from (fish and chips, burger, schwarma/falafel, pizza, chinese) and be satisfied with zero chance of vomiting or diarrhea

tbh i feel sorry for you if the cheapest option is mcdonalds :< go go go stomach ulcer

@hoijui Lol. They have evil noses? I like Smoth's nose. He has a cute, wide nose.

@Forb I usually like herb seasoned baked chicken, but chicken in general is good.

Dont blame the food when you are the ones stuffing it in you gob.
