The Man Who Would Be (Burger) King

The Avon Lady · 02-28-07, 03:49 AM

Prince Charles says ban McDonald's food.

In response, I suggest MickeyDee put out a new burger, called the MaCamilla, made from 100% horse meat.

EDIT: That's not to say that the Prince is totally off course (in this case). As an example, here, have an Angioplasta!

I would be happy if McD's & Burger King were both removed from the UK. For me their food is too expensive and of a not very high quality.

If you want a proper burger and you ever happen to be in the vicinity of Plymouth (UK) pop down to the Barbican and visit Captain Jasper's. Excellent food, reasonably priced.

McD's & Burger King - all too often I see families piling into these establishments for Sunday Lunch

, what ever happed to family meals at home.

Do these types of establishment contribute to the current obesity problems faced by so many youngsters (& adults):hmm:

If McD's go, I for one will not miss them.

Bit of a gaf by Charlie though.:rotfl:

Seems like Charlie boy has taken a leaf out of his Pa.
Remember when the Duke went to China some years ago and said to some of the westerners there that if they stayed there long enough they would get slitty eyes.
Didn't go down to well with the Chinese.

I think you can blame Sunday trading for this.

Most probably.

But a lot of other people surely will.

Looking at that sad and sorry image of the Big Mac reminds me of a scene from the film Falling Down when Michael Douglas walks into the Wammy Burger restaurant.

I don't think the prince mentioned the fries, only the big mac.

Mickey D's is nasty food. It is cheap here in the States but hell I do not eat that crap. For $5.00 over what I pay at McDonald's I can have a sit down decent meal at a far better establishment. Not to mention the service there is dreadfully awfully at best. The restrooms are gross. The restuarants themselves dirty. You never get what you ordered and when you do get it, the food is cold.

Taco Bell is even worse. I have yet to be in one of their places that wasn't down right dirty from the floor to the table tops.
