People who won't let you enjoy fast food of your choice don't deserve to eat Chick-fil-A. We had Chuck-fil-A for dinner last night on the drive from Nashville and loved it. And some colleges want to ban them-what happened to person opinion and choice?

---

You, as an individual, have the right to eat anywhere you want. That is ok. However, because Chick-fil-a supports causes that are discriminatory, public schools should not support them by permitting the purchase of their products by departments within the school. It is really that simple. And, no, I have never eaten at Chick-fil-a and have no intention of ever doing so.

71Bear,

It sounds to me like you are confusing discrimination with a religious belief. Perhaps you should stay out of Hobby Lobby too.

*******it. I went to the Kim Bap place at 7:30 am. They said they'd be open. But they were closed!!!

I have to go through this game sans Kim Bap.

(You really can't get good food before 9 am.)

---

For a second I thought you were talking about a place in Mississippi and I was thinking "no way you are getting good KimBap there", then I realize it was LA.

Get off your high horse. It's a chicken sandwich - good god who really cares. There are bigger fish to fry. The guys got chicken sandwiches and played a hell of a game. I say order it up every game if it produces wins.

On the InNout fries - the last two times I've ordered well done, they asked is Light Well was acceptable. I wonder if there is a push from corporate to keep the fryer free when they are busy? Light Well still adds a good bit of crisp for your mouthfeel, but without as much of the browning you get with FWD.

Light well is fine with me, and honestly, I don't mind the regular inNOut fries, they aren't high on my list, but they aren't inedible, and I'll take them over the highly processed fries of more other places (almost everywhere but FiveGuys)


Best gram post I saw was from @hottytoddy79 lol check it out.

A point many are missing on In and Out fries is that you always wind up with a basket of 1" long fries with a very few 2-3" fries mixed in. Good thing I don't eat there often with that in mind, but it such has you licking your fingertips if you like catsup with your fries or vice versa as the case often is.

FWIW, the Seattle Times food writer made this statement:

This will ruffle some feathers, but you know why that Chick-fil-A sandwich tastes so good? It's loaded with MSG.

Don't know if MSG is still a thing, but back in the day it was a big thing.

For some reason, a lot of Bay Area kids get athletic scholarships to Ole Miss baseball (I know of 4, two of whom I played with growing up). As for Chick-fil-A - I don't see what the hype is about. I've tried everything on the menu and besides their fries which are good, the sandwiches are blah. IMO.

---

If you're talking fries you're talking McDonald's and Five Guys. Two completely different types of fries, but both incredible.

---

My brother from another mother!

What's your position on In-n-Out fries?

---

I'll take In-n-Out fries every day of the week. They may not be as "perfect" (ie, processed, formed, and pre-cooked before being frozen) as the huge fast food chains, but there is something to be said for being able to watch them cut the fries from whole potatoes before frying them. They're made the way fries are supposed to be made.

---

The problem is that they are not made the way they are supposed to be made. They are made-to-order and that limits the washing off the starch, the texture of the inside on the first try, and the texture of the outside on the second fry and you end up with garbage fries that you could easily top at home.

They are cut, put in oil and taken out and put on your tray. It isn't more wholesome or real, it's just showmanship. Cutting it in front of you means you forego any ability to make a passable french fry, or you take an hour to fullfil the order.

Good fries are washed and cooked twice. The "processed" BS you are talking about is the logistics of washing and cooking them twice. McDonald's often owns the production of the potato and even pays farmers abroad to plant their varieties because it gives a long fry that is constantly around the world... It's a real potato, cut and cooked; They don't form them like a Pringle. They hit the first two steps and freeze so they can do higher volume in stores. https://www.cnet.com/news/former-mythbuster-goes-on-mcdonalds-french-fry-fact-finding-hunt/

5 guys does it at the location, but they start well before opening since it takes so long. That is the tradeoff. 5 guys would absolutely change it's methods if they had to achieve higher volume. https://www.foodrepublic.com/2016/03/29/how-the-five-guys-french-fries-get-made-a-food-republic-exclusive/

That's why in-and-out is the absolute worst fry you can possibly get in fast food. It is literally how an absolute novice home cook would make them. A good home cook can make a 5guys fry (or really any other ok to good fry). It isn't hard. It just takes time that they are unwilling to take.

---

I guess they don't call you lunchtime for nothin.

I heard that McD's fries were "formed" from a potato slurry. Not true?

Same with McNuggets. I heard the same. They are chicken mush formed into nugget shapes. There are about five different shapes.

Yes, but I doubt he thinks so.

The fries at McDonald's are just normal (well, large variety - 5 guys uses one of the varieties) potatoes that they rocket through a cutter with waterjets. Thats why they are uniform.

They use several chemicals to do thinks like prevent the potatoes from greying during the freezing, and they also add some sugar for color. The only real odd thing they do is add a flavoring to make up for not using beef tallow for frying (they moved to plant oil for health reasons). The basic potato part of the french fry at McDonalds is critical enough that when opening in new countries, they make a significant push to have farmers change production to ensure they have a supply of the right varieties, and typically build a facility close by to control the process before they open up shop.



My point is only that GOOD fries need like 5 things:
1. a good Potato (almost everyone manages that now)
2. Washing the potato's starch away (in-out doesnt do this)
3. a low heat fry to cook the inside to that fluffy texture (in-out doesnt do this)
4. a rest to let the fry cool (in-out doesnt do this)
5. a second short fry at higher heat to get the outside "crispy"

That is why mcD fries seem "manufactured" is they control all but the last step in big controlled facilities, so they are almost perfectly uniform from store to store. But aside from beef flavoring (again, to substitute for loss of flavor from switching to healthier fry oil) and offsite preparation, they are made the same way as the good fries from other places.

Until I went to Belgium after learning about fries, I didnt realize how ubiquitous the Belgium method had become. Almost no restaurant does it the old cheep lazy way anymore. They do the labor intensive way of washing, frying, resting, and refrying. Except in-out.

So if you are ever wondering why they suck, that is why. They know people think fires are manufactured, so they cut the potato in your face and you think its how "fresh" potato tastes. If I go, I just dont get the fries, because what is the point of terrible fries? All the unhealthiness and none of the flavor or texture.


I only post this because the ignorance around some aspects of food can be easily explained, and I think that is important, because in this case, you can do it at home (with some effort) and have AWESOME home cooked fries.


I dont have any defense for McNuggets. I dont know much about that process, but I suspect it is gross.
