Favourite junk food

Mcdonalds stopped being decent at the end of the 80s once the damn veggies got them to remove the beef tallow from the fries.  Taste like ass now.

KFC seems to be more breading than chicken and the gravy is terrible now compared to how it once tasted.

Kebabs are a tricky one.  So many places do kebab and most are terrible.  We used to live near a fantastic local Greek place.  They only opened some nights totally at random but would cook the most amazing Greek Gyros on a charcoal grill and you could order home made roast potatoes cooked in olive oil on the side.  The food was amazing.  Where we moved to now just has the standard low quality Turkish places with the old Elephant Leg of doom.  Grim

5 guys fries are huge.  It was the first  junk food meal I've not wanted to finish due to the quantity.

Still, that meal is more than one day's   recommended calorie intake - not saying you're wrong but are you right?

I used to prefer BK burgers to McD's but they always seem to microwave them now, and don't taste as nice.

Are they? I complained the one time I went into a five guys as my portion of chips seemed to be for someone on a diet.

As a quick fix that is unfortunately a bit more expensive than is reasonable, FiveGuys is brilliant although yes, the fries just push it into "I really can't finish this" territory. The gazillion drink combination machine is also a work of wonder.

If I feel energetic enough, a trip to Edgware Road will always win though.

BK are guilty are putting far too much mayo in their burgers. It's ******* disgusting.   Their fries are also incredibly fake tasting.  That weird artificial tasting crunchy exterior.  Their chicken nuggets are also worse than the crap you find in Iceland.

The one I had was (by the strand/embankment) - couldn't finish them (and the shake) and it still put me on slow-mode for the rest of the evening.

In my experience, large fries gets you a large cup of fries plus they then fill the brown paper bag to the brim with fries covering the bag's contents so you must eat your way through the fries to get to your burgers

That's it, in a cup and on brown paper. I did ask if I had to sit on a park bench to eat them but they didn't get the joke. Anyway I thought the portion was a child's size, not impressed at all.
