That's nuttin, you should have seen when I trained the squirrel to sit on my hand on the deck to eat...she even went into the house and waited for me on the container of Sunflower seeds a couple of times. good thing she didn't get into the walls!

It'll be interesting to say the least if my family descends on Victoria...Will they be ready for 5 of us?

Re: RE: McDonald's to Add Hea

People complain about these places but all the ones near me have packed drive thru's most of the time, does not matter if it is McPukes, A&W, KFC, Wendy's, Tim Hortons or people waiting at pizza joints. There all so busy. Fast food seems a part of life now.

Ahhh, but these driver-thrus are there for our convenience. Sometimes I wake up at night am hungry and head for one of those drive-thrus. They are really convenient, particularly the 24 hr ones. In the US I've noticed that Wendy's, Del Taco, Taco Bell and Jack-In-The-Box usually have an all night drive-thru.

Pizza Hut doesn't have drive thus. However, we have a combined Taco Bell Pizza Hut in one that does have an all night drive thru. You can only order the small piza (combo) at the drive thru.

You know nascar, everything you wrote there explains perfectly why north america is full of fat, unhealthy, zombie consumers. This kind of thinking is passed down from generation to generation now. Not only are these people deprived from one of the most fascinating and rich world of food, but do not even eat food. The whole feckin thing is like that movie a solvent green, staring that twat, get your hands off me you damned dirty ape!!!

Food is what we all have in common, its an art, a universal experince. Its what substains us all. Those places do not serve food. *shudders*

You are correct Peapod in that fast food isn't the best of quality, and it was never meant to be. It is there for those who are in a rush and need to eat something quick or for those of us who get snack attacks in the middle of the night, or simply for those who like the taste.

The price is right thou. Most combos here (burger, fry, drink) are less than 4 bucks. Actually the big bac combo, before large sizing it is just $2.99 plus tax. This makes fast food affordable to low income earners. That is why I've always been a fan of fast food, it is there for everyone, not just those who can afford upper class restaurants.
