    I stopped doing fast food a long time ago. My burgers are way better now. Its just not worth it if you have a kitchen

      The point of fast food is not to get a great burger, it’s to get someone else to make you a mediocre burger fast either because you’re in a hurry or you’re tired and you don’t feel like cooking

      I don’t think anyone has ever claimed that a McDonald’s cheeseburger is better than a homemade one lol

          Whenever I eat at burger king or McDonald’s (which is almost never) I have to download their stupid apps for the coupons because without a 2 for 1 coupon the prices are just ridiculous for what you get. Actually, nevermind. The prices are still ridiculous even with the coupon

        Yeah I get that. I just got used to it and now its just another thing I do all the time. Now I come home half dead and whip up a dinner no problem. The only reason I would recommend fast food over home cooking is if you are disabled.

          Cool… So next time I’m on a long trip and I need something quick for lunch I’ll just pull over on the side of the highway and set up the camp stove? Should be no problem 👌

            I pack lunches. But yeah there’s gonna be edge cases like that. I’d imagine long haul truck drivers probably dont cook often either. But for the average American I’m confident fast food and even restaurants are largely unnecessary.

            You could go to a normal restaurant. But yeah, usually fast food is faster, but that’s because it’s at the truck stop, not because you get the food so fast
