Just went to my nearest Captain D's mostly because of this thread. Research the place a little on google and saw a review that the restaurant likes to close earlier than their posted time. Realize it's 9:30 pm and place has a posted closing time of 11 pm. I walked in at 9:45 and received my food at 9:51. The whole time before getting my food manager is sitting right behind me in an empty restaurant. Get my food manager asks me if I can tell her when I am leaving because she has closed the front door. A whole 1 hour earlier than usual. I nod yes. Eat my food and head out by 10:15 pm. Keep my receipt and snitch on her to corporate.

Fish and chips are relatively modern, coming from the 19th century and thus too modern for it to have been brought to the Americas by colonists. However, as silly as it may sound, Bongs don't actually eat much fish. I live in a coastal city of 300k people and I'm not sure if we even have a dedicated fish shop. You must understand that people here do not eat fish, they eat fish and chips. Fish used to be dirt cheap poverty food, but that changed when some smartass sold modern fishing fleets to the Chinese, and now cod is way more expensive than chicken, not helped by us being pretty damn poor by 1st world standards.

Australia is a continent by definition. But really it is more like an island. North America, similarly, is a continent unto itself. And yet it serves as an island fortress that no old worlders ever can reach, except by ICBM. Still, being continent-size, it is large enough to herd lots and lots of cattle. Hence why America is all about burgers. Versus maritime nations (Japan, UK, even southern China) who are about seafood.

You have no idea what you're talking about Americans eat plenty of fish, there's tons of seafood restaurants everywhere and they're very popular. Also way more Americans fish than aussies and bongs so much so that it's become a stereotype on tinder. It's more like a lot of people don't trust fast food fish, it's seen as not as fresh.

You are just plain ignorant. Simply because most Americans prefer red meat and chicken to fish doesn’t mean Americans don’t eat fish. People who live near the coast who are more able to obtain fresh fish, especially eat a lot of fish

I am right there with you. Long John Silver's>Captain D's. You can taste the difference in the fish and breading. Still beats eating the same old burgers time and time again, but goodness, Long John Silver's has a unique taste.

Idiot. You have no idea how much you missed out on quite possibly the most phenomenal tasting fast food meal ever. Rivals that of Pizza Hut lunch buffet back when they had it. You retard.

You haven't tasted anything until you've gone to a Mexican flea market and ordered birria tacos. You will not regret it. Mexicans also have great ceviche.

It's the entire country. Everything here is delicious. That's why everyone is so fat.
