Speaking of chicken joints, I just tried KFCs "hot wings" last night. I will definitely be going back for more. I have no use for actual hot wings (which consist of a tiny bit of nasty-flavored meat, wrapped around chicken bones), but the KFC version is pretty good.

The senior special. The first time they gave that to me, I was kind of insulted. The girl at the counter said, "You deserve it for dealing with that many years of crap." Made me feel better and I kind of agree with her on that.

So, what's the senior age threshold

Or does it depend on how rode hard and put up wet you look ?

The hot wings I have tried had a horse-radish/fancy mustard/wasabi taste to them. Are humans supposed to like that stuff?

Where did you get them?

I generally avoid all fast food joints. If their food actually came out looking at least vaguely like it does in the commercials, and had real nutritional value I might change my mind.

I kind of like the boneless wings at Pizza Hut.....good sauces & not as greasy as most places.....

Been a long time, so the memory is hazy. I had some at a friend's house a long time ago. Couldn't tell you where else I might have had them. An Army buddy of mine used to get them from the sports bar/arcade at Fort Hood (maybe it was called the Sports Dome or something?). He ate them with ranch dressing, which I imagine must be what eating from a dumpster tastes like.

Go to Buffalo Wild Wings or Wing Stop.

This is reminding me how much I miss the Tyson hot wings that used to be in the precooked meat section.

Those were tasty (and not anything like what fistful said)

But other foolish ignorent people might. We have a duty to the world to protect the innocent from fistful, for we are the only ones who can withstand his evil, and with great power, comes great responcibilty.

This thread reminded me that I need to contact McDonald's with a complaint.

I stopped at Mickey D's this morning on the way to a church committee meeting. I loathe the ham stuff they put in Egg McMuffins, so I looked for what used to be known as an "Egg and Cheese McMuffin" (no meat). Not on the menu. But the Sausage McMuffin with Egg was -- for $2.79. So I asked the brain-dead clerk what the price was for an Egg and Cheese McMuffin. After nearly five minutes of probing the touch screen, and asking me four times what it was I was asking about, she said it was $2.97. I pointed out to her that the Sausage McMuffin with Egg was $2.79, and I asked why I should pay 18 cents MORE to get the same sandwich without the sausage. She couldn't answer. And she didn't have the initiative to call the manager over and ask.

I didn't have time to push the issue so I ordered two of the Sausage McMuffin with Egg calorie bombs and left. In retrospect, the special of the day/week/month was two of the regular Egg McMuffins for $3.00. I should have gotten those and just removed the (purported) ham.

Oh yes the innocent ones. You are so correct, we must protect them from evil.

Don't go to <fast food place> and expect good service. Go to <FFP> to get the exact same item they sell at every other location. They sell consistency at a low price. Nothing else.

The sport of eating at Bojangle's (pronounced "bo'-hangles" is their biscuits on any given day range from gourmet to WTH? They sell a killer steak biscuit they will at time position against McD's 2 for $3 specials.

I think Egg McMuffins are just egg and cheese, no ham. Aren't they?

I hadn't been to a McDonalds in years until my wife got pregnant and found having some of their greasey breakfast bombs helped with the morning sickness. Haven't really been back since.

Bacon egg and cheese biscuit was always my favorite but I probably haven't had one in 5 years.

Okay Wmenorr, just for you I went and got some Original Hot Wings at Wing Stop. They were not as bad as I remembered, but they have that same taste that I just don't like. I ate about half of my order and went and got a 1/4 Pounder.

I will say they were respectably hot, which I don't often find in restaurant food.

What is the taste you don't like?
