How is grilled chicken bad now? I feel like this whole hating on McCheese's diet thing has run it's course.
I think you're confusing "hating" for friendly joking. McCheese is one of the best parts of this thread. I'm not hating on him at all. I can't speak for Vitality though.

Chick - fil - a chocolate shake is amazing.

Today for lunch I'm getting taco bell. XXL nacho and gonna try the new spicy chicken taco they have but I'm gonna tell them to wrap beans and a soft tortilla around the hard shell.
I had it. It was good but I put fire sauce on it by accident so who knows if it was really spicy but it was decent enough.

This was my first doritos taco actually, and whoever said they fall apart is right. By the time I got home the bottom had basically fallen through. Had to eat it sideways.

I thought custard was another name honkeys use for flan but I noticed at shake shack the milkshakes arent shakes they are custards????
There's a frozen custard place in my town, and it is basically just soft serve ice cream. So I'm guessing the "custard" milkshakes at Shake Shack are simply made with some kind of soft serve ice cream instead of the more traditional ice cream that most places use.

I've been wrong before, but I believe frozen custard involves eggs or egg products as well as milk/cream.

You're correct.


PS:

Flan is baked custard in a mold or bowl and turned upside down when served. There is usually bruleed sugar on the base and some sort of caramel sauce.

Yeah, I just looked it up. That's interesting. However, you certainly can't taste the eggs in it so I don't see the point; it tastes identical to soft serve ice cream.

Easy there whiteknight. It's not "grilled chicken is bad" it's "a few orders" following his declaration that every bit he eats is full of good calories and nutrition.

McCheese is the gift that keeps on giving. We love him and if you keep trying to change him we'll knife you in the gut and leave you to bleed out.

If you can't tell the difference between frozen custard (like Freddie's or Culvers or whatever your local version of Ted Drewes is) and soft-serve (ie Dairy Queen) you best get your head checked. Mainly it is a texture thing with custard having a thicker, more decadent mouth feel.

McDonald's chocolate shakes are the same thing. I'm pretty sure most fast food places are like that. They usually only have vanilla ice cream and just mix syrup into it to get the associated flavor you ordered.
Isn't chocolate ice cream just ice cream with some chocolate added in? I'm not sure there's really a difference here.

The difference is that sometimes they don't mix it up well or don't put enough syrup in and you end up with a mostly vanilla shake.

University of Rochester Medical Center employs nothing but hipsters who do scientific studies. You heard it here first.
It's just a general hatred for people who claim that foodmustbe enjoyed a certain way. Or that certain combinations of ingredients is how somethingshouldbe prepared/enjoyed.

Damn, dude. Not even trail mix?
The nuts are fine, but you lose me when you start adding dried fruit, M&Ms, etc.

Most chocolate chip cookie recipes have salt in them ... ;-(
I'm not a fan of chocolate chip cookies. Nor desserts/sweets in general, for the most part. My disdain for dessert in general is pretty well known. I'd rather just have another entree for dessert.

Peanuts and fudge in vanilla ice cream... Kirun is out his goddamn mind.
Peanuts on ice cream is a disgrace. In fact, peanuts on anything is pretty much shitty. The only good thing to come out of peanuts is Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch.

McCheese trollin now.
Not at all.

While I do eat a ton of food, it tends to be of the healthy variety. Six days out of the week I basically eat boiled chicken and drink milk, and the stuff I post about here (burgers, milkshakes, etc.) are what I eat on my cheat day. My crazy binges of 90 pizza rolls and whatnot only happen once every month or two.

Obviously it's an exaggeration to sayeverythingI eat is healthy, but the vast, vast majority of it is. That's the only reason I can binge like I do and not be fat and diabetic with high blood pressure.

Kirun got owned pretty severely just now. Comeback is "I don't like food that tastes good".

Chicken satay with a spicy peanut sauce is fucking delicious. I can't imagine not liking that, well unless peanuts would kill you and stuff.
