Where was that McDonalds? I may be interested in trying to get an encore of that particular incident for myself.

so if you put food in oil and it doesnt sizzle immediately, the temp is too low. you can certainly blanch the fries in 350, but for a very short time. you can even transfer them into an oven to finish. add a little oil if you do that, UNLESS you blanch at a low temperature in which case, the food has absorbed enough oil to bake it.

Damn squal ! You sound like an extremely proficient chef there ! :hatsoff:
I remember our deep fryer growing up ma used to plug that 'ol greasy urn in and in 5 minutes that f'en oil got so hot that when you dropped a scoop of frozen idas in that sucker, you'd have to quickly cover up the top because of the violent crackle - splatter. All good though ! :yummie:

My fave are tater tots :thumbsup: I cook those in a preheated convection "ove".
I wonder why tater tots never caught on with the fast food joints ? Aww well

Actually ... that is fraud ...

I work at McD's, and it happens often at our store too.

Actually, that is a legitimate class action lawsuit.

While it's debatable who is at fault for what the food does to you, advertising 4 oz. pre-cooking weight patties and not actually serving them is fraud.
When it's systematically done, and not just random chance, it is ripe for a class action lawsuit.

I just saw this little gem, titled "McDonald's Makes Jesus Cry" - about how some Christian fundies are calling for a McD's boycott since the company, or at least one of its execs, donated 20K to a gay & lesbian group - figured this was the place to post it:

Maybe, but the majority of the time, its newbies not knowing what they're doing, which I blame on my boss for not training them properly.

Im a Manager there. Im sure they just fucked you over by placing a normal patty on your sandwich instead of the normal 1/4 patty. It happens all the time cus the place is filled with morons.

I quit, but dammit it was a good job, so I recently went back to being a manager there too! *high fives*


Yeah, the quarter pounder definitely isn't the same size as a regular cheeseburger. You should of complained. In my store I'd fire someone who was that moronic.

Again, systematic.
You'd figure the lawyers would be all over this.

Consumer fraud is not something that is easily dismissed in court.
Especially when the product has a well-defined metric in its name.

ha! :1orglaugh

Yeah, but I don't know for how long.

I ran into one of the other managers who said I was welcome to come back, they offered me more money, so I took it.

 

[gunslingingbird]

Speaking of Mickey D's, is it true that in France they call the quarter pounder a "Royale with Cheese," or was Vincent Vega full of shit?

With fast food, you never know what your going to get. Wendy's has great fries. I've always liked Burger King and KFC

 

[DukeLaCrosse]

Their burgers were larger when I was a kid, a little more than a decade ago. They have gotten smaller over the years. F-it...they don't deserve your money anyway, with all the "nutritional value" you get from their food.

i thought food portions in restaurants were getting larger

I had KFC a few days ago with my best friend. I try to lay off fast food when I can. But I do love Wendy's. BK I like but Wendy's is best.
