BK is trash and you know it. Their fries suck, burgers are tiny and flavorless, they're such low tier across the board and only marginally better qualitywise above subway.

Tacobell jacked up their prices, but you can still come out ahead on value with them: $5 classic cravings box, add $2chipotle wrap. $7.57 big box combo meal clone.

That or you can do their promo box with whatever dumb item they're pushing for $10. Still cheaper than a $12-16 combo at burger places. Do not fucking argue with me on this, you're out of your element.

And you have no idea who you're talking to. Taco Bell hasn't been worth it for nearly 3 years now, but BK has ALWAYS been better than McDonald's. 30 years ago this was just considered common knowledge. The only place worse than McDonald's is Subway (which actually wasn't that bad 30 years ago).

I know you're trolling but:
A classic combo box with a diet pepsi is 880 calories. at $6 (add a few hundred more for the liquid sugar option).
"Build your own" cravings box again with a 0 calorie drink is 1250 calories at about $6.50
A Deluxe cravings box with current promo (diet pepsi) is 1330 calories. a couple variations on that box is like 1500-2000 calories.

Add on my favorite beefy melt burrito of $2 for 620 calories alone. You can eat a days worth of calories in 1 meal at t-bell for under $10.

This is my main problem with it. McDonald's would be *fine* if it was still cheap and I was drunk, but it always makes me feel like shit almost immediately and it continues for the next few hours. I don't even know what it is; it's just a bad feeling in my stomach that makes everything feel off. I can pounds of Taco Bell or Burger King and feel (relatively) fine, but a single burger from McDonald's is pretty much a guaranteed ticket to feeling like shit for the next 4 hours.

Do you generally avoid overly sugary things? I don't even know if McDonald's contains more sugar than other fast food places, but it's the only thing I can think of. I kind of naturally cut out sweet stuff for most of my 20's and now can't even drink a single can of soda without feeling bad (same with caffeine, which sucks because I really like coffee). People look at me like I'm crazy, but back when I used to work in kitchens and smoked cigarettes I still had a better palate than the cooks who didn't smoke but regularly drank soda. I could be completely off-base with that, but seriously, more people should try to stop consuming overly sweet stuff. Not even for health reasons, but just because it turns your sense of taste/smell up to 11 and everything becomes more enjoyable, with the caveat that dessert might make your tummy hurt (but it tastes nasty anyways so it doesn't matter).

That's kind of what I meant by "naturally cut out sweet stuff". It wasn't an active decision I made, but once I was making my own choices and not just consuming what was in the fridge or given to me, I just stopped consuming soda and ice cream and candy and whatever, simply because I didn't have the desire. I think one day I must have gone out with someone and gotten like a root beer float or something and just all of a sudden realized that it was disgusting in a way I'd never experienced before.

Well u don't find sweets disgusting actually, but I'd much rather something savory any time. For example a dinner desert might be a couple pork chops, broccoli, and a few taters. For dessert I'll have grilled chicken legs. When I drank coffee I preferred it black, but if someone got me a coffee with sugar I'd still happily drink it.

Anyway, I think your theory has some merit.

What the fuck are "skate trips"? Like, you went to figure skating camp when you were a kid? Or you used to make skateboarding videos where you drove around to different locations? And why would you eat fast food BEFORE going on a trip? 90% of all the fast food I've eating in my life took place during a trip, because that's often what's available when you're traveling and short on time.

Skate trip. Jump on skateboard, skate to skate spot, skate it, skate to next spot, skate it, move on.

I mostly hung out with the punk kids in high school, many of whom were skaters, and I've never heard anyone say "skate trip". It was more like, "hey anon, want to hang out/go skating/meet up with whoever at wherever". And then there was skating involved, and moving around to different places. But it was more just hanging out with skating involved, not a "skate trip". I also didn't live in a city, so it involved a lot of getting rides, hitchhiking, stopping at peoples houses to get high or play music or just fuck around, so maybe that's the difference.

I usually ignore murrica posting because it's just low quality, low effort, not saying anything, not triggering anyone, not funny, not bait, just boring, uninspired shitposting. But it is interesting that Americans are generally far less active than yuros, but anon's entire point was that he's *somewhat* active and doesn't think 3k is anything excessive, while yuros typically walk enough to make up for anon's occasional skate trips but still don't eat that much. 3k calories is actually a lot for an average American, so I'm not saying that yuros are just poor, but it kind of sounds like yuros just might be poor.
