Yea the Sonic Island Fire is Excellent. I have has it several times. Sonic is by far my favorite Fast Food Place, Whataburger being a close second. I like them becuase food is made fresh and they have more variety (especially Sonic) and there is almost always something *new or limited*. I want to try the new Blackened Naked Strips at Popeyes. I tried their new Green Beans, and they were very good. Philly Connection is also a great place to eat. Get a punch card to make up for their high prices though.
I keep see the Whataburger sponsor when I watch the Rockets (I'm in San Diego), so next time I go to Vegas, I'm going to have to check out the Whataburger chain there.
I don't like sweets. I honestly think that is the main reason I'm not fat. I do need to try the spicy chicken burrito, though. That sounds tempting.
Actually, I prefer crispy bacon on my burger. Thats what stood out for me on it. The Wendy's items aren't that great. I've had their other variations. I didn't bother with this latest incarnation. You're right, though. Spicy chicken is the path at Wendy's. I did notice they have a new chicken sandwich special at Whataburger. You might want to check it out!
Man, that Wendy's mozzarella thing is awesome. I went last weekend and ordered the burger. It was so good that I didn't realize until halfway through that they gave me chicken.
ummm... ... this is gonna sound weird coming from me... Don't quit smoking, FB. You'll balloon. -- droxford
That's exactly what I was thinking. That's how I've lost weight lately, actually. Not healthy at all, I know, but then again, I'm not recommending this certain diet unless you're already smoking.
I thought the naked chicken strips at popeyes were nasty. I need to try the green beans though. Can't have Popeyes chicken anymore. A gastrointestinal nightmare.
haha ive tried it about a year ago. Taste "ok", taste like a turkey burger. Its a burger, but without the beef flavor.. how is Krystals? I hear its expensive, 79 cents each. I remember I ate at White Castle in NY a few years back and they were like 39-49 cents each? Good stuff though
Nahhh. At least I hope not. I'm trying to come up with alternatives to smoking. I'm really getting tired of the coughing. The amount of fat you're supposed to have in a day is 70 grams. I always try to get food around that content. And when I order a burger, I don't order fries. And I rarely eat after 7. You have to remember, I was once at 240. I lost 60 lbs at one point. Right now I'm close to 200, so I need to lose some more. My diet? Don't eat so much.
Ostrich is one of my most favorite meats. Back when I lived in Switzerland we ate a lot of ostrich steaks. Man, they are DAMN good!
They recently improved the Naked Chicken Strips @ Popeyes. They now offer them "Blackened" with Chef Prudhommes Special Gourmet Seasoning.
Oh yeah, I had that -- I didn't care for it much. It tasted okay, but after I ate it I got kind of sick, so I don't think I'll be having it again . . . Another one I tried recently is that KFC Snacker -- well, at least it's only 99 cents. It's decent, but really small and nothing special about it. For 99 cents you can do MUCH better.
It's funny you mention this... I have a story (at the risk of de-railing the thread). I was talking with mybro-in-law one day and I told him about a friend of mine who has been huge her whole life. Her whole family is big, and it's generally believed that it's hereditary. "That's BS," he said. "You look at that horrible footage of the Jews in concentration camps. As you see the hundreds and hundreds of skeleton-like people, you don't see one person in the crowd who's still fat because she's "big-boned" or has a "thyroid condition" or any of that crap. You wanna lose weight" Stop feeding your fat face." I couldn't argue with that. Now, granted, some people burn fat slower than others, and going on the Auschwitz diet is probaly bad for you and won't actually get you in good shape, but it certiainly does keep the pounds off. -- droxford
Slightly off topic here but, did anyone else notice that all the Grandy's in Houston are gonzo? Checked the website and there are none left in Houston. Guess I didn't go enough...
My thoughts: I think Krystal burgers are horrible. That is the only damn thing I could find open in the french quarter after a night of drinking. Even then, I thought they were really terrible. The Whataburger Honey BBQ chicken strip sandwich was good, but damn I felt like I was going to have a heartattack after that. That is some heavy stuff. I need to try that Island Fire burger.
