David (tanygaer), I think you have a funny idea of a "square meal"! :cooldevil:  Having said that, if you're serving freshly harvested, ground up pork snouts (well seasoned, of course), hey, I'm in! :cheeky1::cheeky1::cheeky1:  I DO love little piglets, served up on a bed of rice, or as part of a nutritious and artery clogging Full English/Welsh/Irish Brekkie....sorry there, PINKPORK! :shock: :goofygrin:  Obviously, I would pass by any piglet who can read the news?

I think the mystery to Mickey D's food is the salt.  I suspect that sailors between Spain, England, Norway, Greenland, Iceland etc. probably killed each other, over salt, on their way to the "New World"!  Of course, the extant native tribes who greeted them said "New World? WHAT New World???!!!"  You blokes are lost....India is THAT way, lads! We offer you a new spice; it's called 'hemlock' " Try some....":cooldevil::cooldevil:

In defence of the Golden Moneymaking Arches, they DO tend to have clean (and warm) loo's- very nice on a miserable and rainy day.......:dude:Wexman wouldn't know anything about those sort of days.......:baffled: :cooldj:

Oops, sorry David- I didn't realise that you were referring to the shape of the box!

Having been forced to re-evalute the fallen arches food offering last weekend whilst entertaining Baby Tan Y Gaer, I can confirm that the myth is completly unfounded, the burger does not have as much nutritional value as the packaging.

Well....the actual burger, as toxins go, is not so bad.....the regular burger (not the "McDreamy" triple-stacked model) has pretty much all the protein a "normal" adult human needs, for a day....

Of course, I'm discounting the (outrageous and addictive) salt content.  It could be a fun experiment- take one swimming pool full of fresh water, throw in one MickeyD's burger patty (no, I said burger patty; they aren't THAT rude!)  Will every swimmer immediately float like a cork??? :baffled::baffled::baffled: :cooldevil: I suspect so....

If you throw away the McBun (that's not REAL bread, now, is it? :goofygrin:) and the McFilling stuff....well then, it's vaguely "good" for you!  :cheeky1::cheeky1::cheeky1:  High praise, indeed!

They used to pack 'em in McStyrofoam, to keep 'em warm, until everyone pointed out that McFoam was McF'ing up the McPlanet.....so.....they stopped using them (in the USA).  All those McFoamy containers are now littering the roadsides of Latin America and Asia (with a "half-life" of, well, eternity.....:baffled:)  You're right, the current McBox version is higher in fiber....

I jest....I'm a fan (there's no accounting for taste, eh?)  I'm sticking to my guns about the salt thing..... I know good trash when I see it/taste it, ok?  I also love those little "hockey pucks" the British and Irish serve with breakfast, and I damned well know what is in those!!!! :cheeky1::cheeky1::cheeky1:  Bring on the pig snouts supplimented with parts from the nether regions! :clapper::clapper::clapper:

I'm glad your little 'un survived being exposed to the Amuricun Icon.....I've always thought that Ronald character deserved watching......:shock:  Big shoes, scary clown face....classic child abuser, no doubt? :? :cooldevil:     Conspiracy theory number 6.459.237 being offered, there......:badgrin:

You are obviously referring to that delicacy from the land of "Ecky Thump" known as Black Pudding, a true delicacy to finish off any breakfast.

Maybe we can prevail upon Pinkpork or Redneck to bring a supply of the genuine article as they hail from Ecky Thump land. :cool:

Well...so long as you're wearing clogs and flat cap, I believe that counts as formal dinner attire....? :shock: :cheeky1:  Somewhere? :goofygrin:

My question is- do your clogs have spikes, like golf shoes?   We wouldn't want you slipping on sheep sh_ _ _  and letting those lovely black puddlings fall to earth! 

As you've gathered, I'll eat almost anything, but even I have my limits! :dude:

PS- Yes, sorry.  I've destroyed yet another thread....leave it to the Yank???  Someone please chime in with a comment about ferry discounts.....or Irish fairy discounts, or...
