Fast food, becoming a ripoff ?

[Ming the Merciless]

McD's and cycling are not good bed fellows there is nothing they sell that is good for a healthy lifestyle, maybe bottled water but even then i'd be suspect

McFlurries and milkshakes good on long rides.

I'm surprised you can get all that for £8.25.

@Reynard would have got that lot for £2.

Not as good a a Pork Pie though.

Iceland are doing a 12oz Big Daddy sirloin steak for £5.
The rest is a relatively small amount, £2 for 2 stir fry packs, £1 for the sauce, pennies for the egg noodles.
Fine value for good food.

I fail to understand why intelligent people still have fast food, knowing all the crap that goes into it.

Because fast foods in different parts of the world are:
Pad thai
Sushi
Croquettes
Pizza
Laksa
Pho
Tacos
Fish and chips
Empanadas
Etc etc
All of these are delicious and intelligent people enjoy them

Haven't had to go into a Mcdonalds for about 25 years ever since the children were small and they were scathing about how useless Happy Meal toys were...

What about Kebabs, not the 'Dodgy Donner' excuses but a nice skewer or 2 of Lamb/Chicken

Exactly. There is a big difference between streetfood around the world and commercial fast food.

The last time I had a 'meal' in McD's was when I was at school (circa 28 + years ago, that makes me feel old) Happy Meals were £1.99. I just googled them and they are now £2.79. A d@mmed lies and percentage increase of 29%

I know I've been in once at least since one boxing day club run and that was the only coffee shop open.

A bacon roll is one of the finest foods known to man (if you don't fubar it with brown sauce). Seek out the mobile shacks parked near builders merchants. They are the experts.

I remember when you could get fish and chips for 90p...

I've avoided takeaways since the currency went decimal
