Ya I just don't see this saving them all that much money. During a less busy time, the same person takes your order, handles the cash and gives you the food and with the headsets I figure that any employee in there in front of a register can place order.

I still wonder what happens if a store runs out of something ( I don't know, the milk fridge breaks downs so they have no milk) . . How does the overseas ordertaker know this

I eat at Burger King at irregular intervals and like Diss said, it doesn´t taste right. I always feel bloated and gassy. The last time I ate there I got a serious case of diarrhoea. Wow, man I had to hold on to the toilet seat so I wouldn´t take off

Never more Burger King.

I've been told that rat poison also tastes good but I don't want to eat it. I for one would like to eat higher quality food which has fewer additives and which is less processed. It's healthier, it's better tasting, and it is almost the same price so why not go for quality?

I would, but there are no In and Outs by me...

plus, I want to eat rat poison... but only if it's a relatively painless death.

I don't know about nation wide. They started in CA I think. They have been expanding though. They have pretty damn good fast food. It's higher quality. For example they make their own fries from whole potatos at each restaurant.

As far as I know it is only in California and a few places in Nevada but supposedly they are epanding into Arizona as well. I like to bad mouth religion because of the negitives some religious people bring into the world but I also need to acknowledge some of the good things. The founders of In & Out (and the family still owns 100% of the company) were religious people and their ethical beliefs lead them to treat their workers far better then any other fast food company I've heard of. You wouldn't know they were religious at all except on the bottom of their cups (where no one ever looks) they put a small Bible verse number (like Geneisis 1:2 or something). Other then that the only way you'd know is by watching the way they treat customers and employees with respect.

McD's new chicken nuggets now use real white meat as well. And like Sava said, it tastes good. Who cares what it is in it, as long as it doesn't poison me.

OK, that's good news if they did improve the quality of their products. I hadn't heard that but I don't eat at McD's so it isn't surprising I missed it.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I ate at Jack in the Box today. The girl I'm working with likes fast food, so ate fast food 2 days in a row

But this sandwhich wasn't half bad! I can't remember the name, it had some foreign sounding name. it's one of their new chicken sandwhiches. It tasted like they used actual spices! . Vs. some cheap ass mayonaise or 1000 island dressing you find on normal chicken sandwhiches. :barf:
