I have a lot of friends that claim to be "foodies" and not one can match a McDouble.

>emplying that organic free-trade kale salad with edemame sprouts doesn't taste like shit

homemade big mac

>>4808884
Got a recipe for that? It looks good.

>>4808887
I'm not vegetarian at all and love me some McDonalds, but when I actually had an organic free-trade kale salad for the first time it was fucking delicious and refreshing.

I'll probably be called a hipster but McDolands really doesn't taste good. It's like eating cardboard.

BK bacon double cheeseburger is the only fast food thing I enjoy.

>>4808910
I treat myself to a Wendy's medium #1 with a Dr. Pepper every 2 weeks. I enjoy it alot.

OP try adding a shitload of salt to your home-made double cheese

A better question, why do delusional people that enjoy eating thrash think they are eating good burgers, why do they think they are even eating meat, and why do they lurk here.

This board is shit thanks to constant white thrash/lazy pothead food threads. Stop spamming this shit at least, and keep it to one thread if you are going to be this fucking stupid

>>4808875
Because it's loaded with sugar and fat, why else?

Besides, you have to add a McChicken to it, for a McGangBang

>>4808965
>eating thrash

>>4808875
kinda weak troll attempt bro

>>4808875
Because you don't know how to cook.

>>4808965
poor people eat too

>>4809142
if you're poor, you shouldn't eat overpriced shit like that though. poor doesn't automaticall make you a retard

>>4808875

because youre addicted to MSG

>>4808875
Because it's had to make food that meh using regular store-bought ingredients?

Where I live the main hurdle would be the pickle believe it or not, the right kind of sweet pickle is simply unobtainium.

>>4808965
This. In spades.

superior fast food burger. the big buford from checkers shits on micdonalds

>buy cheapest thin patty processed meat burgers available, like $5/20 pack cheap
>buy any bun that's actually dense
>heat patties from frozen on a flat gorge forman grill, no fat-draining
>season with shitload of salt and pepper
>melt kraft american cheese onto burger in the last 30 seconds of cooking
>cook burger buns until browned in the leftover grease, absorb enough fat to saturate it but not enough to make it soggy
>open windows to release nauseating smell
>instant mcdoubledouble superlard

>>4808910
I had a double quarter pounder a few weeks ago, and I was disgusted. I used to eat those things every time I went to McDonalds as a kid.

And Burger King? Can't you taste the lard they use to pad out their meat? Or did they finally change that? Their onion ring burger used to be good.

>>4808887
A lot of foodies can't cook for shit.

McDonald's is loaded with grease and MSG. If that's what you want, I can definitely swing it in the home kitchen.

>>4808925
>not getting a baconator

>>4809494
There's a Checkers near me but I've never had them. Mostly on account of the parents saying that the place looked really dirty inside (it's in a part of the country which you could aptly describe it as a "rural ghetto")

>>4809587
I think there's a reason the one in vegas has two small windows to look into for ordering... Just saying.

>>4808875
It's possible and super easy. Loosely formed patties are god tier.

>>4808875
you can easily make as shitty as that if you want. i personally prefer making a lot better than that though
>>4808884
lets be honest here, the real big mac looks way better but that can easily taste better though. taste is where it's at so no worries

>>4809148
i cba to find it, but someone figured out that the mcdouble is actually the most calorie-rich food one can get for their money. nutrients are a whole other story, and that shit will kill you slowly if you eat it on the regular, but if you just need some quick fuel for cheap it's hard to beat mcdonalds

>>4808875

>>4808875
>Why is it impossible to make anything this delicious at home?

>>4808875
not for anywhere near that price

The fucking pickles for some reason the sogginess makes them better and the amount of ketchup and mustard is enough

>>4813025
Beef around here is often on sale for 2.25 a lb. A quarter pound is is fifty-six cents! Buns are dirt cheap, so is that shitty whey cheese product, onions, ketchup and mustard.

Hell, the pickles are the first thing to throw you off budget.

So just the bread contains: Enriched flour, water, salt, wheat gluten, calcium sulfate, soy flour, ammonium sulfate, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, ammonium chloride, baking soda, sorbic acid, deactivated dry yeast, dough conditioners, calcium propionate & sodium propionate (preservatives), and soy lecithin.

Imagine what the rest of it contains? This is why it's not possible at home.

McDonalds is not that delicious, it is just convient. I would take a homeade burger over a mcdonalds burger any day of the week.

>>4808875
If you want a meal, make your own fucking hamburger, they taste way better and are more filling.
If you want a snack, go to mcdonalds. A couple dollar menu items make for a good $3-4 snack.

>>4809111
Out of Step... with the world!

>>4808875
the dehydrated onions are a bit part of the taste

>>4808875

ian pls go

ok, I give it to ray or whoevever. nice. and ok. I like a double chesse burger, was a mcdouble. add ltm, trying to beat the system. I don't eat the fries ( cause I like them too much). but I am old enough to remember. why are we so fat? a hamburger 2-3 oz), a small fry and a small (12 oz) soda. Now it's a double 4 oz with extra cheese, , with bacon, enough f..ing fries to feed 4, and a ginormous soda ( 16 oz is small) more common is 32 oz or one liter. that would have been a good meal.. If you were walking behind a plow horse 100 years ago. and I am the worlds worst. ( wurst - bought some brats and sour kraut) do you wonder why we are fat? the thing is, (aside from the fact that my mom was from bristol, uk, but I think she'd be ok with it) shall I eat one or two. the answer is one. It's always harder to take off than put on. and easy poke fun of those. they already know it. and I have lost becoup( see , I can speak a little French.,) some. but you must want to ( ir mussen Germanic) but no one will do it except for you. se hable espanol? wait a min...Save some money. buy a little note pad.. not electronic. and record what you eat every day, exactly, every bit, no guesses. you will be shocked I was consuming almost 3800 k per day. ok if very active, like I was. not so much if sitting at a desk

>>4813776
so how fat are u?

>>4813781
you really wanna know? I have no reason to lie. about 6' 0" now. 250 1bs. not perfect, but I never was from the get go. But the shit creeps. almost 380 at one point. it's insiduous. I m not gonna be 18 or even 40 again. and I am no vegan. now at 250. I have no axe to grind, but take care if your self. the ones on tv selling somthing . you can do it yourself. do it for your friends or family. Pardon me, while I put the cigarettes aside for good. at 54, you would think
i'd know better. but things can be tough.

I have the weirdest mental image of you

Trick is frozen patties, decent potato buns and plenty of msg

the secret is in putting the burger in its box asap and keeping it in a hot place for a few minutes. The heat of the meat aill emanate some steam and that steam will slowly be absorbed by the bread without soaking it, ending with that particularly soft texture.

>>4809587

The staff, from experience of eating at many Checker's across the country, is always a mix of super niggers and white trash, but I have yet to have a bad experience before, during or after my meals at Checker's. It is easily my favorite fast food place. Dem fries, oh lord they are the best.

well. for starters, most people don't "pose" a burger. a wax apple looks great, until you take a bite. I can and do replicate many things, Mc double included, but it don't look like that. I hve some apple and pear trees. and the fruit is great. organic, I guess. . I don't spray. but they sure don't look like a wax apple. but better. but not evreyone is so .. fortunate, almost said lucky.

>>4808875
Op I could make you a bison burgr on my goddamn stove that blows that crap away

>>4810932

There was a thread on here about it where multiple people found much more efficient food in terms of calories/$ than the mcdouble. I, for one, demonstrated that a Little Caesar's $5 hot-n-ready is a much better deal.

>>4813135
>A couple dollar menu items make for a good $3-4 snack.

A McDouble and a dollar fry are a meal in themselves.

>>4814268
>not eating a 1000 calorie snack
Do you even fat?

>>4814176

Dude, ghetto blacks who work at fast food places are the fucking best. They're usually the kind of poor person that works their ass off to feed their kids or whatever. Try going to The Varsity in Atlanta, GA.

>>4809587
>(it's in a part of the country which you could aptly describe it as a "rural ghetto")

Yeah, that's pretty much the only places you're going to find a checkers. But it's worth it, if you're the kind of person who enjoys a greasy fast food meal now and again checkers is definitely better than mcdonalds...they hook everything up more, it tastes fresher, and its just overall tastier and still in the same price range. their spicey chicken sandwiches are delicious and DEM SEAEONED FRIES

>>4814272

I used to, then I stopped thinking of a sandwich and fries as a snack.

>>4814268
>>4814272
>try to be a fatass
>get 3 mcdoubles
>eat 1 mcdouble and two bites of the second and throw the other one away
>I used to be able to demolish any size meal. it started whenever a place had 30 cent wings but it was $3 per 10 and you could only buy them per 10. I used to get to 18 then give out the others, then 17, then 15, then 13, then just started ordering 10
what happened /ck/?

>>4814286

I'm with you, but it's a good feel for me. That feel that I can now satisfy my desire to be fat but only consume half the calories and do half the damage to my body.

You're getting older and your metabolism is slowing down.
