usually there are some big dudes who work these late night shifts at fast food centers, I would not want to mess with anyone there.

a LOT of guys/gals on probation work there who can talk the talk and walk the walk

i'm confused...why is this all the rage now when it happened in January (the article I read was dated 1/4/2010)

The video was just made public, 6 month delay after trial.

unless i watched the wtong video, it looked like it was at night...

It happened in January. In January fast food places open for b'fast before the sun is up.

They're really not bad. I mean, it's not lobster thermidor, but you could do worse.
True, you could do worse. I'm not sure you could do much worse and expect people to buy it, though.

Amazing what people will do for fake food.

What’s in a Chicken McNugget?
You’d think that a breaded lump of chicken would be pretty simple. Mostly, it would contain bread and chicken. But the McNugget and its peers at other fast-food restaurants are much more complicated creatures than that. The “meat” in the McNugget alone contains seven ingredients, some of which are made up of yet more ingredients. (Nope, it’s not just chicken. It’s also such nonchicken-related stuff as water, wheat starch, dextrose, safflower oil, and sodium phosphates.) The “meat” also contains something called “autolyzed yeast extract.” Then add another 20 ingredients that make up the breading, and you have the industrial chemical—I mean, fast-food meal—called the McNugget. Still, McDonald’s is practically all-natural compared to Wendy’s Chicken Nuggets, with 30 ingredients, and Burger King Chicken Fries, with a whopping 35 ingredients.

Hopefully this will prompt McDonald's to keep firearms on site, the problems will then just solve themselves.

Fake??? It tastes real to me.

Somehow I think that immigrants with higher cancer (stomach, colon) rates vice their homeland are thinking the same exact thing. ;)

Still amazing that this white trash woman assaulted a drive thru cashier over a freaking lunch item in the morning. Let alone smashing her bottle (beer?) through the window. She needs to spend some quality time in FPMITAP.

That's where they get you. See they print fake nutritional facts and claim that it contains protein, fat and calories that we normally associate with food. What they have done instead is replicate a meatlike substance that has no nutritional value and actually absorbs nutrients from your body.

All white trash grow up in black neighborhoods?

And McNuggets are not real food. Somebody needs to watch that Jaime Oliver Food Nation episode.

People keep making up stuff about what fast food is made from and it's wrong 99% of the time. Remember when people said KFC was actually made from worms? Well it turns out worms are more expensive than chicken, so obviously KFC is real chicken. Does Taco Bell use soy instead of beef? Soy is more expensive than beef, so probably not. What are chicken nuggets made from? The cheapest garbage you can find = chicken.


Always gotta love ATOT. Can't like anything that has a commercial on tv and if you do, even if you eat good food all the time, it automatically means you have no taste cus you like fast food.
Yep. It's all a conspiracy. Those millions of people who eat at Wendys are all wrong, and there's no way fast food could ever taste good.

I can't even tell you how many times I've eaten at an expensive restaurant and wished I had just gone to Wendy's. Fast food places know you don't give a shit about your health, so they at least make it taste good. Places with $30 meals try to find some weird middle ground where it's not really healthy and it doesn't really taste good. If it taste like someone is shitting in my mouth, then what's the point?
