    Peanut butter and jelly on a hamburger is actually quite delicious. Never tried one with bananas too. Will have to. When did Taco Bell start selling french fries? I never eat there. Or fast food in general, but when? They're actually good? I didn't think Taco Bell could create anything good. They were better when they were mom and pop El Taco (props to Downey, CA)

    Man I'm still working off the food I ate a few years ago over there.. and I still dream about it! We basically have three options for fast food here in Australia.. McDonalds, Hungry Jacks (Burger King), and KFC. We just got a single Taco Bell about an hour's drive away and there's a Carls Jr at the airport. Super boring and limited food choices here... plus everyone is obsessed with "healthy choices". Fuck that noise!

    Where to begin, forgive me if I can't remember the exact names of some places.. in Berkeley I lived off of Top Dog and the cheesesteak joint near the university campus. When I took the train over to SF I always had to stop by Auntie Anne's for some soft pretzels.. I think there was a great chive flavoured one with some kind of a cheese dipping sauce? Jack in the Box wasn't too bad either.. I think that was near the city centre, that big square of flat concrete. Haight had some pretty nice little donut shops. Donuts seemed to be a big thing around SF.

    In New Orleans of course alligator nuggets were a regular choice.. those things are delicious! There was a Wendy's right near where I was living so stopped by there more than a few times.. Dunkin Donut were fucking awesome. Nobody here in Australia understands the pure ecstasy of a plain powdered cake donut. Chik-Fil-A was fucking tasty as hell too. Sonic wasn't too bad.. the old school drive-in and park setup was cool.

    New York of course had rad food.. thankfully I had a second chance to eat amazing Popeye's chicken while I was in Manhattan. Those pieces of chicken breast are seriously four or five times larger than what we get from KFC here in Australia.. for half the price too! I was staying right near Taco Bell there so spent a few nights eating that in the hotel room while watching the US Open. I can't really remember eating too much while I was in NY.. I was too busy running around checking out toy stores and comic book shops. Shake Shack was pretty underwhelming, but I was probably more annoyed at the line-up by the time I got to eat it..

    yeah, pretty interesting about the fast food in metropolis cities. I know when I venture to big cities, the last thing I want is chain fast food. but i guess it works for you since there's not that many choices for you. sucks to be honest. Taco Bell, Carl's Jr., Wendys, Popeye's, KFC, jack in the box, Mcdonalds are all within a half mile from my office, and I hate deciding where to eat, as they all pretty much suck. it's more of putting something in your body type deal, versus really craving it.

    Taco Bell started selling fries on January 25th. I... marked my calendar for it. :oops: And specifically went there on release day.
    I have a French fry problem.

    Cool story bro... don't worry, I'm sure those places will accept your bipcoins one day!

    Sounds like culinary crimes are below this guy's fine taste - h well, continue the tales of delicious greasy fast food! I'm feeling the need for a midnight snack after scrolling through this thread again..

    This one time at SDCC, I mistakenly wandered into an empty banquet room with a gorgeous feast spread out over a dozen tables.

    Once I realized that I was in the wrong place, that is when it happened, as I turned back to exit, hundreds of and hundreds of cookies.

    It would have been a crime not to sample at least the chocolate chip. I did feel bad but not long really. You see the cookies were not that great.

    That's the real crime.

    I had grilled silkworm pupae at a place in Lanfang, China. They were kind of nutty.

    A few years back I (illegally) raised two mite-ridden robin nestlings that fell out of their nest from a thunderstorm the night before. I got a bag of dried mealworms for them, and I remember opening up the bag to the smell of something akin to peanut butter... If I didn't know it was the mealworms, I would have thought it was some kind of delicious snack.
    Kind of makes me curious as to what cricket flour tastes like.

    (P.S. The robins were successfully released into the wild and broke off from us the same way they eventually break off from their mommas, btw. The only reason why rehabilitating a wild bird is illegal is because people are stupid and don't usually know their dietary needs. For instance... bread soaked in milk is a common thing that people think is a good idea to give to baby birds. IT IS NOT.)

    Masala dosa and lamb samosa for lunch. Than got a bag of ginger and double chocolate cookies plus a brioche. That's the level of my decadence these days.

    Arby's. Talk about a logo of a 10 gallon hat that makes you crap 15 gallons flat.

    Roast beef? Someone wanna show me on the cowmeat map where that mystery stuff Arby's slices then microwaves for 10 seconds comes from?

    How about those transparent and limp ass curly fries? Have to add so much brown colored spices so they look properly cooked.

    "Would you like a whole table dispenser of Horsey sauce with that?" Yeah beats having to squeeze 20 packs on to one sandwich to hide the smell.

    Where did the name come from? "Oh that's my cousin Arby. He makes weird ass fake meat sandwiches for people after they wake up and want those calories back from really boring sex."

    Just some thoughts. I hope I don't upset someone who works there, or your Mom brings it home all the time, or enjoys the guilty pleasure of being served weird meat.

    But have you had their apple turnover? It’s actually a pastry in-line McDonald’s apple pie.

    Only thing good about Arby's is Andy Warhol's penis logo.

    I have fond memories of, but no need to return to, potato cakes and jamocha shakes.

    Only weird thing I ate as a kid was grape jelly and cold butter sandwiches. As an adult I can’t eat a PB&J without Smuckers BlackBerry jam and the bread has to be toasted to melt the peanut butter. Even if I’m bagging it and eating it later lol.

    My mom used to like to stir in some grape jelly with her large curd cottage cheese. Made for a weird looking bowl of striped and lumpen soup, yet I still crave it sometimes.

    The writer of the old Beer Frame zine once said that, "bread is just raw toast". I often agree.

    I don't consider it too strange, but I used to eat warm toasted bread or bagels with peanut butter. It's nice when it's a bit melted.

    When I was a kid and I'd get off the bus in the afternoon, one of my favorite snacks was rolling up a dollop of pb on a slice of bologna. Not really my thing anymore but thought some of you'd get a chuckle out of it. :mrgreen:
