I've had some of Sonic's shakes. They're not bad, but they taste like they're probably made from powder mixed with water rather than using real ice cream (similar to McDonald's shakes). I tend to prefer Dairy Queen shakes, as they're (probably still) made with real soft-serve ice cream.

i'm sure that powder mix is just as real as dq ice cream.
i just had a blizzard the other day. they dont put the topping on it anymore because they are required to flip it upside down and show you. i find that process fucking stupid. it wasnt as good as i remembered it. i probably go to dq once every 2 years if even that.
i also had a chilidog and it was crap. i could have microwaved my own hotdog and dumped some hormel chili on top and it would have been 10x better ---

That's pretty much what they did when I worked there. We'd heat up the hot dog on the grill (cut in half, which was the way they did it but personally not my preference for a hot dog), and we had chili which was stocked in small styrofoam cups that we'd microwave and put on top of the hot dog.
Even when I worked there, I never ate one of their hot dogs, or their chili either.

I think it depends on what you're in the mood for. McDonald's typically isn't the first place I go for hamburgers, but sometimes I actually like a Quarter Pounder or even a basic cheeseburger there. And I know some will disagree, but I think their chicken nuggets are rather tasty. And I actually like Taco Bell; I just don't eat there (or fast food in general) very often. There's another Mexican fast food chain in my area called Taco Time that I also like, and their food seems fresher than Taco Bell.
I thought it was funny when McDonald's copied Dairy Queen's Blizzard idea when they started making their McFlurry. I think Dairy Queen still offers more flavor options with their Blizzard. I also remember when Diary Queen used to offer soft-serve frozen yogurt as a lower-calorie alternative to ice cream, and they could make any Blizzard with frozen yogurt (the frozen yogurt version was called a "Breeze").

Yeah, another way to put more people out of work. It won't be long and there will be no work force if they keep this up. I always go to where there is a cashier when I go into a place to make a purchase. It helps to keep these people working and having a income.

My first job was at a Dairy Queen, and I never heard anyone there refer to it as "ice milk". It was always soft-serve ice cream. The ice cream was delivered to the store in crates that would contain a bag of it in liquid form, and when pumped through the soft-serve machine, that liquid would get cooled to the point of being the soft-serve that came out of the machine to serve customers. I'm not sure if ice milk is the same thing.. though I suppose it could be.That milk was cream, a form of milk. Thus the name ice-cream! It's a creamy version of milk.
I saw where one restaurant robot couldn't keep up with the onslaught
of customers. So much for replacing humans. :P
I've seen a couple McDonalds in my area that have put in the kiosks for ordering. One of the McDonalds employees actually pointed me to one of the kiosks.. The first time I used one of those, I immediately discovered that you can't use discount promotions with those kiosks. They still have actual people who can take food orders though.
I haven't seen any of the automated cooking machines yet, but I've heard about those. And the national debate about minimum wage increases has spiked companies' interest in those machines, of course.
I'm sure jobs will open up for people to maintain the automated machines. I don't think the work force is going to totally disappear.. But who knows, maybe if we can eventually automate everything, maybe we'll come up with a new way to survive that doesn't necessarily involve an income. Perhaps that's a little bit too utopian Star Trek thinking though.. I dunno.

to many people out of work. Plus when eating in a place it takes away form the home cooked food feel if it is all done by a machine.
This automated
crap needs to go away and these place (mcdonald, burger king) quit being so damn cheap and pay the employees to do the work and give the customer the service they deserve for the money they have to spend on the food.
Well maybe one day the will have it like star trek and we will have food replicators and we won't need to grow or raise any food item. It will all be done at the touch of a button or by a voice command like they do in star trek.
But then will we still have good home cooked food that way or will it all be fake food.

sure that "home cooked" would really apply there.. But if we did have replicators, how important would be that someone spent time in a kitchen preparing the food, vs. getting the food from an automated machine? Suppose a replicator were to create food just as good as the home-cooked version, would you see a problem with that? If replicators were possible, they'd also probably be able to help a lot with solving world hunger..

they arent there to tell you how to eat. if they did people would go elsewhere. when you go out to eat you are taking in so much calories it's almost an entire days worth. this is true no matter how 'healthy' a meal appears.
a mcdonalds meal should be a once in a while thing, not an everyday thing.
on startrek the replicators were still created FROM something; it was transporter technology that reconfigured/resequenced matter.

Yeah, I suppose the oxygen would have to come from somewhere.. though I won if it's converted from the carbon dioxide that people exhale.

That was sort of my point, and why I thought it was funny that they took away the supersize option. People can still choose a smaller size or eat there less often, but McDonalds still chose to eliminate the supersize fries.

The two new seasons have been different, for sure. One thing that annoys me about them a little... the first season seemed to start off with a story-arc, which was then pretty much abandonded after a few episodes, only to be revived at the end of the season. Almost felt like they got no where with it. Meanwhile some of the other, non-arc, stories in the middle were pretty good.
I am guessing they will return to the main arc towards the end of the season (coming soon!) and not really get very much farther with it, again. I have heard this could be Gillian's last season, so it would be a shame if they never solve the main-arc case, or have to rush it into a solution in just two episodes.

hmm.. Well, most often when I go to McDonald's, it's for a breakfast item, and I tend to order their sausage & egg McMuffin. I guess those are the fresh-cooked eggs?

That's not really surprising to me, when I think about all the frozen breakfast & potato-based foods available at the grocery store. You can buy hash brown patties at the store, similar to what McDonalds has, which are frozen. There are also frozen shredded potatl style hash-browns at the store.

does your mcdonalds drop off the food at the table? in my region you pickup at a counter.
at the kiosk you can punch in all kinds of odd things so you can customize your order
We picked up our food at the counter, but it asked us our table #, we haven't even put our stuff down at a table at that time... So I just punched in table #1, and hoped I could find the lady bringing our food out, if they did...

Speaking of mcdonalds, one thing i would like them to change is how it is MR>somehow engineered to make you hungry and keep coming back for more.
It's not very heavy engineering. It's salt and fat. Both of those things trigger you into craving more. That's the same thing with Chinese food
and probably most other fast foods as well.
That's not really surprising to me, when I think about all the
frozen breakfast & potato-based foods available at the grocery
store. You can buy hash brown patties at the store, similar to what
McDonalds has, which are frozen. There are also frozen shredded
potatl style hash-browns at the store.
Yeah that's nuts buy that shit from McDonalds... Just picked up 4 Jimmy Dean Sausage/Cheese/Egg Crossiants today for $4.99, wtf is 1 Egg McMuffin now a days $2.69 or some crazyness... Sometimes it's a good reason to eat out other times it's just pure lazyness and honestly stupid...
Don't even mention Jimmy Johns, holy shit is that place a fricking rip off...
I haven't found their eggs to be watery, and I think they taste okay.. The cheese they use on those reminds me of Kraft American cheese, which I believe is a fairly highly processed cheese.

i would have to disagree. i think every part of the mcdonalds experience
By "first season", are you referring to the very first season in 1993, or the >first of the new revived seasons (2016 I think)? I checked a list online of
the alien conspiracy episodes and I seem to remember seeing that with the first
of the new seasons, only the first and last episodes dealt with the alien >conspiracy, I think. It did seem a little odd.. Also I thought it was funny
that in the last original season (2001 or 2002?), the cigarette smoking man was
supposedly dead, but then in the new revived season, he was still alive.. Also
they had changed the premise of the alien conspiracy somewhat, just to keep >that story arc going. At the end of the original run of the show, it felt like
that story arc had all been exposed and had come to a conclusion at the end.
Another show I used to like to watch was The Outer Limits. I watched the 90s >version back in the day.. Several years ago, I started watching a few of those
episodes again using PlayOn (media streaming software that streams to your >TVs), and I found the show just a little weird, and it was hard to watch.
so obviously this food is engineered to make you a big fat pig. that is what >they need to change. i know it makes them successful, but whatever they did is >wrong.

I have noticed that with the fries. I will keep eating them even when I don't feel hungry anymore. I assume it is the salt & the fact that I like the ketchup, but maybe that it not all there is to it.

Well i can not speak for the one in your area but here they are not good. Plus I am not a big fan of eggs that way. I like hard boiled eggs. But I just go buy myself some thomas english muffins, some cheese, and some bob evans sausage and make my own.
I don't know if they are really trying to stretch the original show so much as maybe they are trying to get new viewers. It has been off the air long enough that the people who are the age I was when it first started were not even alive yet then. :o
IMO they aren't that much different from hard boiled eggs, just a different shape. Their McMuffin eggs are shaped like a hockey puck rather than shaped like an egg, but otherwise they have the same basic consistency.

another heavily engineered item. they use some beef and whatever else flavoring on the fries.

DUDE? you want 15 bucks an hour?? do you see those kisoks over there they just but it? they are abuyt to replace you.. he said.. thats ok, when they fire me I can draw unemploymment and benefits for at least two months while waiting.

Some years ago, I heard there were a lot of complaints from vegetarians due to McDonalds using beef flavoring on their fries. I'm not sure if McDonalds stopped using the beef flavoring though..
Well mickey d's has good sausage mcmuffin without egg. There eggs are watery and nasty tasting. I like just the muffin, sausage and the cheese. Although they could use better cheese and not that fake stuff they have.

Here I think it is around 6 months. A lot of younger people seem to
think that way any more.
Some people are what we call "dole bludgers" here - habitually drawing on unemployment benefits. However, the vast majority are genuine jobseekers. Minimum wages here generally compare favourably to any government handouts (there are exceptions), so there's financial incentive to work. There seems to be a mismatch in available work, with less low skilled jobs available, due to automation. Fast food is still a common entry point for many into the workforce - many kids got their first job at "Maccas" (McDonalds for you non Aussies). But hospitality doesn't suit everyone. One thing I am seeing is a number of young people here are taking up apprenticeships, which bodes well for the future, as there is a shortage of qualified tradespeople here. These new apprentices will eventually help fill those gaps.

It's funny to see those two words in the same sentence together.. McDonalds and hospitality..
around here anymore, the "person who opens the window" will open it,
say 8.75 or whatever. close the window in your face, then open it back
up and throw you a back with the wrong stuff in it, then shut the
windown an run off before you even have a chance to beat the crap out
of the window with a qauarter or something so you can tell them your
order is wrong.. don't dare lok at them and smile and expect one back, they'll roll their eyes at you, or worse, call there manager who will
then call the cops becaus you were "sexually harrasing" them..
It's not just in fast food either though, its getting this way everywhere..
I'm still glad we have a few family run joints around here .

It's a real egg, as compared to their other frozen excuses for an egg.

Round egg? As opposed to a square egg? I've never seen square eggs or any other shapes of eggs on their McMuffin..

Round egg? As opposed to a square egg? I've never seen square eggs or any other shapes of eggs on their McMuffin..
what do you mean by round egg and frozen egg?A round egg is what the call it when they take a standard egg, break it, and drop it into a round shaper that forms a round fried egg. A folded egg is
by round do you mean the pached kind and the other kind is scrambled
and folded?

afaik, they (used) maybe still do in some markets to pour their liquid egg product out of a carton into a square mold on the grill.

I have seen the "scrambled" ones on some fast food breakfast sandwiches served in a square shape.

I'm starting to enjoy the new episodes. The one where the AI chefs were sending drones after Mulder/Scully because they didn't leave a tip was hilarious.
