ChrisNorton: i thought it was mcdonalds
TomSawyer: now the breed is watered down
FP: ground is never as good as whole
suge: mcdonalds angus is decent
ChrisNorton: jackinthebox has angus? or anus?
FP: someone should wiki angus and get some factopids
ChrisNorton: i agree with suge. it is decent. but not a world-beater
FP: jack ran a slam ad against the carls jr angus burgers
TomSawyer: i got some angus from whole foods and it was better than fast food
FP: he drew a circle with his fingers - referring to anus
FP: instead of angus
FP: it’s famous
TomSawyer: i am saying there are levels of angus
FP: google it
* Barnabus has joined #FPTroundtable
ChrisNorton: um
ChrisNorton: famous angus?
FP: -- Angus (Aonghas in Gaelic) is one of the 32 local government council areas of Scotland, and a lieutenancy area. The council area borders onto Aberdeenshire, Perth and Kinross and Dundee City. Main industries include agriculture and fishing.
TomSawyer: i don't think angus is what it used to be
ChrisNorton: there should be an angus taste test
* blak2ooooof has joined #FPTroundtable
FP: ok
ChrisNorton: FPT angus taste test survey
FP: here’s some info:
FP: Angus cattle is a term that refers to two Scottish breeds of cattle, which are naturally polled; that is, they don't have horns. Angus is one of the preferred breeds for beef, especially in the United States. The two breeds of Angus cattle are:
FP: Black Angus, which refers to the predominant colouring amongst the original Scottish Aberdeen Angus population. If a colour is not specified when referring to Angus cattle, it's presumed to be black.
FP: Red Angus, a breed resulting from the selection of red individuals from the Angus population, which has always had both red and black individuals.[1]
TomSawyer: and the fast food franchises buying up the angus stock are slowly watering down the angus name until it means nothing
Barnabus: one of those buzz words, like kona coffee
ChrisNorton: so is the beef imported?
TomSawyer: i think they grow it in america now
blak2oof: I’ve had one
TomSawyer: they can't be importing that much from scotland
FP: good point Tom
blak2oof: mcdonalds
TomSawyer: all the fast food places sell it now
FP: once something moves from 5-star tables to a drive-thru the glamour fades
TomSawyer: and not even necessarily at premium prices
TomSawyer: exactly FP
FP: but they will just breed a new tastier cattle ...no?
TomSawyer: Kobe probably
FP: oooh
FP: indeed
TomSawyer: associations of anal rape aside
FP: he was never convicted
FP: mr. jack may have been - i dont know
ChrisNorton: could you tell the difference between a regular burger and an angus burger if you were blindfolded?
TomSawyer: i probably could because regular beef is so horrible
FP: ok
FP: heres the legal info:
FP: The parent company of the Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s fast food chains sued rival Jack In The Box Inc. on Friday to stop TV ads that it says suggest Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s use cow anus to make Angus beef hamburgers.
FP: CKE Restaurants Inc. sued Jack In The Box in U.S. District Court on Friday over an ad in which executives laugh hysterically at the word “Angus” and another where the chain’s pingpong ball-headed mascot, Jack, is asked to point to a diagram of a cow and show where Angus meat comes from.
FP: “I’d rather not,” the pointy-nosed Jack replies.
TomSawyer: i mean, my god, what they serve us
FP: Jack is wrong all around there
FP: its not part of a cow
FP: its a breed
FP: but Jack's a lil motarted
TomSawyer: i gotta give props to Jack tho
TomSawyer: hardees/carls is driving this angus nonsense
FP: Right now - tonight the best burger youre getting from a drive-thru is the Angus
TomSawyer: they have been into the angus tilt for a while
FP: I stand by that
ChrisNorton: what will be the angus killer?
FP: except for McDonald's
blak2oof: angus muschrom
ChrisNorton: i had the shrommangus
FP: who have really dumbed it down
ChrisNorton: decent
TomSawyer: i am not going to disagree that the fast food angus is decent, relative to the other crap they serve
TomSawyer: the question is will it stay decent
FP: hmmmm
FP: will they water it down?
FP: you mean?
TomSawyer: i am arguing that it is already happening
FP: i think McD has done that just by offering it
ChrisNorton: price will go up as quality goes down
TomSawyer: soon all they will serve is "angus" and it won't be different than what they serve now
FP: I would like to see an Angus steak sandwich
ChrisNorton: just like the public school system
FP: and i would pay more as well
ChrisNorton: i'd like a london broil on a bun
ChrisNorton: any takers?
ChrisNorton: maybe arbys can look into this
ChrisNorton: or jackinthebox
FP: Jack tried Sirloin
FP: I think it didnt take
ChrisNorton: those mini sirloin burgers were good
TomSawyer: right
ChrisNorton: i give them ****
FP: i missed them
ChrisNorton: out of *****
TomSawyer: Jack has offered some decent product but it never seems to take
ChrisNorton: but imagine a sliced sirloin steak on a Kaiser bun smothered in horseradish
TomSawyer: i think it is always edged out by the 2/$1 tacos
FP: ok....do you think the Carls Jr Angus burgers are as good as the 10.00 burgers at Applebees or wherevers?
FP: those arent tacos
TomSawyer: no they aren't but at 2 for a $1 who is arguing
ChrisNorton: semantics
TomSawyer: at 2am when you're drunk
FP: but back to TS point......
FP: its like the mochas and espresso at McD's
FP: they are no longer 'sexy’
ChrisNorton: i'd take a mcd's mocha shake
ChrisNorton: they need to catch up with arbys on that
TomSawyer: thats not a shake it is not even dairy
TomSawyer: arby's has decent tasting shakes but the rest is crap
ChrisNorton: i'll pay for whatever it is
ChrisNorton: jamocha shake is king
ChrisNorton: its word is law
FP: Arby's tries - but I’m never really impressed
TomSawyer: arbys has fallen the farthest in the quality department
ChrisNorton: it is ok in a bind
ChrisNorton: well the horsie sauce can burn out some of the crappy flavor
ChrisNorton: like a mini flamethrower
ChrisNorton: i think the mcd's angus burger price is prohibitive in these trying economic times
TomSawyer: mcd's is a standard, people go there just to go there
TomSawyer: the food is beyond terrible
TomSawyer: the Big mac is a disgrace
ChrisNorton: eh it ain't that bad
TomSawyer: to all things culinary
TomSawyer: yeah it is that bad
ChrisNorton: i'm having a newfound love affair with what i term the recession meal
FP: McD's burgers are all bust
FP: IMO
FP: i tried the Angus with an open mind
ChrisNorton: mcdouble-smallfry-smalldrink
TomSawyer: there isn't anything at mcd's even worth the price
FP: was not comparable to Carls or BK
TomSawyer: carls/hardees tries too hard
FP: McD is for familes and old people
FP: its not gonna change
Barnabus: my dad used to refer to a hamburger from mc'donalds as "a mcdonald's"
FP: The day Carls Jr. or Burger Kings Angus burgers taste like they been cut with wood shavings I will post it.
TomSawyer: right, it is an american stable
FP: for now, I’m loving em
ChrisNorton: would you consider mcdonalds 'ethnic' food?
TomSawyer: prolly why people are so fat
ChrisNorton: and if not, why not
FP: because they sit on their ever-widening cans all day
ChrisNorton: i agree with fp
TomSawyer: i do not consider it ethnic but there is a certain class element involved
ChrisNorton: i could do the supersize diet every day if i wasn't so cheap and not gain a single pound
Barnabus: I have never tried anything from Carl's Jr because for years their commercials offended me, and many still do
Barnabus: they were just gross
ChrisNorton: well it is 'mc' donalds. i'd guess it was scottish. angus?
Barnabus: and stupid
Barnabus: sry
Barnabus: but it is tru
TomSawyer: i agree with that, their commercials suck
ChrisNorton: is mcdonalds scottish or irish?
ChrisNorton: they have angus burgers and shamrock shakes
ChrisNorton: i get a gaelic vibe
FP: It all comes down to the food and the price though
Barnabus: some commercial about a guy who cheats on his girlfriends so much that he just has to have a giant hamburger and eat it while smiling all dreamy and getting his car fixed while ketchup falls all over his shirt
Barnabus: fucking stupid
TomSawyer: well, i like to pay more for nutritional content
FP: youre an old man barnabus
ChrisNorton: would you go to carls juniors if they had hooters waitresses
FP: like me
Barnabus: and the "if it doesn't get all over the place, it doesn't belong in your face" campaign
Barnabus: gd
ChrisNorton: carls' junewhores
TomSawyer: i don't even go to hooters
Barnabus: what brain scientist came up with that
* etathed has joined #FPTroundtable
FP: but fer the 20sumpins they love that shit
Barnabus: yeah we want to see close ups of people smacking on fast food and slopping it all over themselves
Barnabus: and the *sound* of it to boot
Barnabus: sorry but carl's jr lost me for life as a customer
Barnabus: you wanted a round table
etathed: i am a fan of the angus burger
ChrisNorton: will the new health care bill provide funding for mcdonalds prescriptions
etathed: but prefer buffalo
TomSawyer: i can't stand carls/hardees
Barnabus: hardees ruleses
Barnabus: i grew up on them
ChrisNorton: what about hardee's coupons
Barnabus: knowing that carl's bought them made my heart sink
ChrisNorton: did it sink into your hardee hole
etathed: i had a hardees breakfast sammich the other day, damn tasty
TomSawyer: the thing about hardees is they were headquartered here in st. louis but weren't even popular here
ChrisNorton: shut your carl-hole
Barnabus: they went down hill when they started selling chicken
TomSawyer: i never understood it
FP: Chick-a-Fil?
TomSawyer: i agree with the chicken thing
Barnabus: their brown bag specials of the early 90s were awesome
Barnabus: they have great chicken sammiches
ChrisNorton: chickfila is lame
etathed: i am a big chik fil a fan
Barnabus: and were one of the first to offer curly fries
TomSawyer: no, hardees went through a phase where they were pushing fried chicken
etathed: i like the fact that their mayo packs are out in the open
etathed: take as many as needed
TomSawyer: that says a lot about them actually
etathed: thats a service through non service
ChrisNorton: ed you got swine flu? from hardees?
etathed: also enjoy their slaw and curly fries
ChrisNorton: kfc has the best slaw
ChrisNorton: N1664's
etathed: and the little bags their sammiches come in, and the pickels on the sammiches.
TomSawyer: they don't have chckfila here that i am aware of
FP: OK
etathed: gd sorry to hear that
FP: so far we have learned that advertising is very powerful
TomSawyer: KFC has decent sides but the chicken is absofuckinglutely terrible
ChrisNorton: you can have mine
ChrisNorton: you're high
FP: Angus may be replaced by Kobe
ChrisNorton: kfc kills chickfila
ChrisNorton: ORIGINAL HERBS!
etathed: buffalo
etathed: USA
TomSawyer: just look at taco bell for the future of the fast food industry
ChrisNorton: cheap?
ChrisNorton: i love that #6. chalupas
FP: Taco Bell is unique
TomSawyer: even week they have something "new" which is just another variation of their 9 ingredients
etathed: i just polished off a BnC Bag from arbies
FP: everything is made from 12 ingredients
TomSawyer: it is not unique at all
ChrisNorton: i thought that was jackinthebox
FP: all freeze dried
ChrisNorton: jackinthebox is famous for... something new every week
FP: they just add water and theres the daily slop buckets
ChrisNorton: but i love the mobyjack
ChrisNorton: never got mobyjackasthma
TomSawyer: everything at TB comes out of a caulk gun and i defy to to tell the difference in their product blindfolded
FP: Barnabus
FP: People been ripping on your Arbys
FP: j/s
ChrisNorton: you came out of a caulk gun
etathed: taco bell is some of the best authentic mexican food available in the US
TomSawyer: no doubt i did but that is not the topic here
ChrisNorton: true
FP: ED
ChrisNorton: burrito supreme
FP: that is so wrong
FP: its the worst
ChrisNorton: nacho bel grande
etathed: Arby's rules
ChrisNorton: its good fp
FP: try a local taquiria
TomSawyer: honestly taco bell makes the whole mexican food industry worse but causing people to expect that type of shit
FP: with grandma cooks
Barnabus: my arbys?
etathed: I would like to try the volcano nachos
etathed: i been on the beef n cheddars
TomSawyer: real mexican food tastes awesome but doesn't seem glamorous
ChrisNorton: taco bell ain't bad. it's just unique
etathed: extra horsey
Barnabus: we don’t have an arbys
etathed: gd sorry to hear that
TomSawyer: arbys sucks balls
FP: remember price
FP: very important
FP: otherwise we would all just do restaurant window pickups
etathed: Anyone have a cordon blue from arbys?
FP: j/s
TomSawyer: they broke my heart when they deprioritized the potato cake in favor of french fries
ChrisNorton: arbys is the reason
ChrisNorton: true
ChrisNorton: potato cakes rule
etathed: i agree TS, that was a bad move
TomSawyer: and stopped with the horsey and arby sauce squeeze bottles
etathed: potato cakes do rule
ChrisNorton: oh man tom
TomSawyer: packets suck balls as well
etathed: another valid point
ChrisNorton: those squeeze bottles are nothing but pork flu vectors
ChrisNorton: talk about public sanitation geez
etathed: the worst are those little cups you have to pump the sauce into
TomSawyer: those cups are an embarrassment
etathed: yes
ChrisNorton: everybody wipes their butts in the bathrooms then touches those condiment bottles
etathed: what is that 1/4 a serving?
TomSawyer: i see the whole fast food industry moving toward pay-per-packet
ChrisNorton: unless you get a good employer funded packet-plan
FP: gd mcd's charged me 30 cents for an extra bbq
Barnabus: the amount of waste involved at fast food places is staggering
FP: i got bent
etathed: another shout out to chikfila and their take what you need policy
Barnabus: i bet that less than 5% of the salt they go through is actually eaten
Barnabus: same with the packets of stuffs
etathed: why keep condiments behind the counter?
Barnabus: toss them out with the bag
etathed: You cant cook them into meth.
TomSawyer: yeah that sucks
ChrisNorton: if i were a terrorist i'd put the pork flu in public condiments. and crack
Barnabus: a good chemist can
etathed: well i just like it piled high and deep
TomSawyer: you'd have to be a good chemist to turn a relish packet into methamphetamine
FP: some of the filfiest places i have been are Jack's
FP: truly nasty
FP: bathrooms
FP: floors
TomSawyer: yeah jacks is bad
FP: everything with a film of scum
ChrisNorton: crack in the box
FP: one place, i backed out
FP: feet were sticking to the floor
etathed: gd
TomSawyer: its hard to get people to give a shit at minimum wage
Barnabus: jacks uses onion-mayo without warning
etathed: what is that?
Barnabus: I have to give jack's credit for at least trying once to sell gyros
etathed: mayon with onions in it?
TomSawyer: they tried to sell panini too
Barnabus: yes onion-mayo on the chicken sammiches
etathed: whoa
TomSawyer: jacks at least tried to throw a lot of stuff on the wall to see what sticks
Barnabus: some places try to put theit oqn unique spin out there, it doesn't work most of the time
TomSawyer: but none of ever does and they are too lazy to clean the stain
etathed: i better get to sleep, got the conjunctivitis here. I enjoyed partaking in this roundtable. ty
Barnabus: not everybody can be a white castle
* etatheconjunctivitis Quit (Quit: Quitting!)
TomSawyer: there is too much unique spin, it dilutes the brand
Barnabus: yes
Barnabus: i see it with a lot of smaller places too
TomSawyer: hardees/carls selling chicken hurt them, alhough i know people who raved about the chicken at the time
Barnabus: order something as simple as biscuits and gravy and you get something with chives and peppers in it
Barnabus: and you send it back and they act all offendee
ChrisNorton: how about wendys
Barnabus: same with fast food
Barnabus: mcdonalds had some excellent chicken sandwiches about 3 years ago
TomSawyer: wendy's has been through some problems as well
FP: wendys has translucent bacon
Barnabus: then they got into the chicken club sandwich thing
FP: thinner than a pop can
Barnabus: and the really good one got lost in the shuffle
ChrisNorton: can't beat that frosty though
Barnabus: had to tell them how to make one with all substitutions
Barnabus: and they get all pissy
FP: Barnabus is in charge while I float this snake - bb5m
TomSawyer: i think combos ruined the fast food industry
TomSawyer: supersizing and all that nonsense
Barnabus: what really gets me is hot dig places that dont understand that a hot dog should be served on a FUCKING HOT DOG BUN not some hoagie corn roll
Barnabus: fucking idiots
Barnabus: and they think they are improving something
TomSawyer: hot dog places are dying out
Barnabus: i have had them tell me "plus it's on a corn roll, not some measly hot dog bun"
ChrisNorton: supersizing is gay
ChrisNorton: but it is a free country
ChrisNorton: hoagie corn roll? haven't seen that yet
ChrisNorton: but i'd be for a der weinerschnitzel
Barnabus: maybe just out west
ChrisNorton: polish brats
TomSawyer: and when did a large soda become 44 ounces
Barnabus: these hot dog stands and places
TomSawyer: do people need that much soda
TomSawyer: my bottom line is that fast food sucks and i can barely stand to eat it anymore
ChrisNorton: you've turned into an old fart
ChrisNorton: have a glass of cutty and get back to your snooze
FP: ok
TomSawyer: bah
FP: people wanna make their main talking points
ChrisNorton: have a humbuger
FP: FP: Advertising is very powerful
FP: FP: I’m ready for the Kobe Burgers
FP: FP: Jack needs to order more mops for his locations
TomSawyer: TS: angus is good beef that is being degenerated by an increasingly incestuous fast food culture
FP: dang all them fancy words and such
Barnabus: Barnabus: Benzo Burgers
TomSawyer: TS: fast food places have to sell everything to everyone and are watering down their own brand identity
FP: FP: Angus breakfast sandiwches
ChrisNorton: mmm kobe burger. i'd give that a try
suge: `: I'm new here
ChrisNorton: FP i have a serious question
FP: it is odd how everyone has gone Angus
ChrisNorton: is it time yet for Lamb burger?
FP: but I think thats because of Carls/Hardees success
Barnabus: Barnabus: Advertising and promotional campaigns of questionable taste can have negative effects that are long lasting.
FP: McD's stock went down today
suge: i prefer rice milk fed veal
TomSawyer: are they successful are is there advertisement just powerful
TomSawyer: their
FP: ?
TomSawyer: their commercials suck but they are relentless in their advertising push
FP: the till answers that I think
ChrisNorton: so no lamb huh?
FP: were not ready for lamb
TomSawyer: i would bet they are not as successful as they seem
FP: yet
suge: gyro burgers = lamb
ChrisNorton: why not
suge: sayin
FP: someone check CKR stock
ChrisNorton: there is no gyro burger that i know of. its all on pita
TomSawyer: or wrap
suge: is this roundtable commercially sponsored by Hardees?
TomSawyer: i've mostly attacked hardees
FP: CKR TODAY:
FP: Last Trade: 10.18
FP: Trade Time: 4:01pm ET
FP: Change: 0.08 (0.79%)
TomSawyer: excuse me, Hardees/Red Burrito which is what they call themselves here
ChrisNorton: perhaps a better question would be, what stock didn't go down today?
FP: Carls Junior
TomSawyer: once again it is not enough to sell burgers, they got to get into the mexican food game as well
ChrisNorton: demographic shift
FP: well the green burrito is a seperate place mostly
TomSawyer: bullshit, it's just like when they sold the chicken
ChrisNorton: you can thank the jackasses in congress for it
FP: they generally are alones
TomSawyer: not here
FP: west coast prolly has more demand for the mexican food
FP: maybes
TomSawyer: probably
TomSawyer: taco bell owns this town though
FP: sad
ChrisNorton: tacos from the west, kababs from the east
ChrisNorton: bbq up the middle
FP: i guess....
FP: if you dont like it
FP: dont buy it
ChrisNorton: i like it all
FP: sweet
FP: one guy on the FPT claims to have eaten the whole subway menu in one sitting
TomSawyer: i'm not gonna work on maggies fast food franchise no more
ChrisNorton: does he want any coupons
TomSawyer: subway has gone downhill as well
FP: no he argues what fat bastard cant afford that
ChrisNorton: is there such a thing as french fry salad
FP: ok
FP: why has "LUNCH" become a 5.00 ticket?
TomSawyer: i love how they can stick stuff in a microwave to heat it up with a straight face
FP: everywhere
ChrisNorton: is that gay bashing?
TomSawyer: k we're rolling on an hour
FP: i say bail
FP: i got to edit/format all this
TomSawyer: yeah lets get out of here before the cops come
* Barnabus has left #FPTroundtable
ChrisNorton: flush the burger bags down the toilet
TomSawyer: if anyone makes sick check for angus residue
TomSawyer: i'm out

FP: condiment packages from fast food joints
FP: i have always thought them to be small
FP: and my theory proved true
FP: as last night I was at my local family owned burger barn and they had a suprise

Stormabus: especially on later shifts where the employees are less likely to care

FP: Kiwi?
