I now know which is the dumbest burger-joint of them all!

Having no problem with helping derailing my own thread, since by rights it should’ve died at post 3:
True fries are Belgian, more specifically Flemish. I know this because that’s what they were called when/were I grew up. One of the theories of the application of “French” to fries is that US servicemen were served fries with everything in Belgium ( everything is served with fries in Belgium - if they had had the Irish potato blight, Holland would border France like in the good-old day’s, but I digress from digressing), by French speaking Walloons. Hence: French fries. Of course true Belgian fries are twice-fried and come with mayonnaise-based sauces, so maybe not calling them Belgian or Flemish is some sort of truth in advertising.

She’s good at that. :eek:

I’m fine with fries, French or otherwise. I’m fine with Belgians. The problem with referring to fries as “Flemish” is the implication (due to an inspiration by Dave Barry) that they were made with flem – or, more properly, with phlegm:

Phlegm /ˈflɛm/ (Greek: φλέγμα “inflammation, humour caused by heat”) is a liquid secreted by the mucous membranes of mammals. Its definition is limited to the mucus produced by the respiratory system, excluding that from the nasal passages, and particularly that which is expelled by coughing (sputum).

Please guide me on this…

The OP is some sort of joke, right?
No-one in this world is actually as stupid as Isosleepy pretends to be, right?

I thought this was going to be about Hardee’s and their new ads touting the utter lack of any veggies—even tomato, lettuce, or onion—on some of their sandwiches. Which may actually be very smart, capitalistically speaking, but is certainly appalling and sad.

So. Plain vanilla mcflurry?

Well, you should at least be ready to entertain the possibility that not everyone is as obviously brilliant as you. But to answer your question, my posts pretty accurately reflect my level of stupidity. What you take from them, of course, might reflect yours.

Well played.

Bitch, :wink:

Mmmmmmmm. Edible Zeppelins.

We come from the land of the Icy McFlurry
and the midnight pie and the hot fries hurry

I just want to thank the OP for his mis-aimed rant, because it gave me the opportunity to try a Tomato Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich for the low, low price of one Canadian penny. It wasn’t bad, although the sauce was a little spicy for me.

My friend had the Stroopwafel McFlurry, which looked delicious. I plan to go back next week to try it.

I was gonna do that on Thursday but we ransacked the house and big box o’ furrin’ coins had disappeared somewhere. The next morning I walk into the volunteer office at the museum I volunteer for and right on top of the file cabinet was a UK penny. We have three hand cranked Mutoscopes that take quarters and the woman who empties them keeps finding stray coins.

Lithuania is famous for its edible zeppelins! Well, famous among those who know Lithuanian cooking, at least. :slight_smile:

Personally, I’ve always found our local Stroopwafel perfectly cromulent, and don’t understand the OP’s hostility to all things Stroopwafelian.

I literally drooled looking at that picture and it’s not even breakfast yet.

My brother drove the van for Hambuger U. Yes, kids, it exists for at least one burger chain.

Your reading comprehension is suboptimal. I love the stroopwafel, and abhor the notion of blending it with almost-but-really-not-at-all ice cream. In the OP, I even lay out the time tested proper way to consume this confectionary slice of heaven. Stroopwafels are proof of man’s ability to achieve true greatness, in packages that are no bigger than my hand, and literally wafer-thin. Man has come up with other small yet mighty expressions of genius: the ic or chip comes to mind. But unlike computer chips, the stroopwafel never was subject to a Moore’s law, being perfect since time immemorial, or at least 1908.

FINALLY, someone who knows how to cook! “Then grate some onion.” Eyeball Cookery! “Yeah, about yea should do it.”
