Reply to: How many Big Macs have you ever eaten?

Is that for real or some kind of elaborate joke?

All of Kenji's stuff is for real. He's the one with the ultimate french fries recipe (Monday Links XXIII), the In-N-Out Animal Style Double-Double teardown and recipe (Monday Links XXX), and loads of other good stuff, more of which will doubtless make it into Monday Links in the future.

EDIT: and not forgetting Bringing Neapolitan Pizza Home (aka 'The Skillet-Broiler Method'), ML XXXVIII

I wish the UK had In-n-Out Burger.

I think I've seen that done on YouP*rn.

Edit: my mistake. It's the people that make the 100x100 burger:


There you go, NF. Spot the slice of gherkin in that.

I doubt that I've had more than half a dozen Big Macs in my life. I enjoy a good burger, but the Big Mac doesn't seem to be a good burger.

The only problem with that is that if I drink what I want regular exercise is impossible due to the hangovers.

Always have at least 2 nights off the booze between sessions is my mantra.

[doodab]

My advice is eat and drink what you want, get regular exercise and you'll be fine.

Nah they come out with a new paper every week that reverses previous findings. My advice is eat and drink what you want, get regular exercise and you'll be fine.

He's right you know.
I've just heard that Wham have split up as well

He's an outlier. Just like the 90 year old who's smoked 60 a day since they were 10, or the 70 year old who lives on some remote island without electricity or runnning water. They are notable not because they are still alive, but because everyone else who did the same is dead.

Thing I don't get is he is thin and has good cholesterol. Shirley that flies in the face of current medical advice.

no, I asked for salt in the states, 'for my daughter'
jeez, the police came around, beat me with lead pipes and put me in guantanamo bay for six months

they dont do salt anymore. and they have different fat levels

all in mho of course

They are putting less and less salt on the fries, IMO. I have to pick up a salt sachet from the counter now.

[d000hg]

I'm more of a "quarter pounder with cheese" man

Closest thing they do to a burger, agreed.
