Smoking: Anyone try it?

[Trainman]

Someone has REALLY never touched their car before.

[Chupperson Weird]

This was quite a while ago, and it had been a while since cleaning. Also, I can't remember the last time I actually had any McDonald's food.

[ShadowBrain]

You made me think of Calvin.

"Hmm... it says here you have to be 18 or older to smoke."
"Eighteen?! By then I'll know better!"

But seriously, I can answer this thread's query in two words:

No. Why?

[The Chef]

I once found a McDonald's fry in my car that was perfectly intact after having been dropped there at least 6 months before.

Have you seen Super Size Me? There's a bonus scene on the DVD where he takes a a Big Mac, a Fillet O' Fish, a Quarter Pounder, a Medium Fries, a regular burger from a regular diner, and some regular steak fries from a regular diner and puts them all into jars. The regular burger and regular fries are the first thing to decompose. Then the McDonald's sandwiches start to rot. The McDonald's fries on the other hand, never rotted. Not even after 10 weeks, which is when everything in the jars were thrown out due to the stench.

I don't know what the hell they put in those fries, man.

At the current time I do not want to start smoking. It's expensive, gross, and harmful. However, I can't say that my viewpoint won't change in the future (although I wouldn't like for it to change).

[Glorb]

I intend to never smoke (I'm constantly strapped for cash as it is, and don't want to plop down hundreds a month on crap that slowly kills me) or chew tobacco (tried it once and nearly barfed), although drinking's another story. I've had booze in the past and will continue to do so but, so far, have never gotten drunk (although that depends on what your definition of drunk is).

[Trainman]

Did you try dipping or chewing? I'm guessing you meant dipping?

[Markio]

What do you dip it in?  Ketchup?

[ShadowBrain]

More brown fatal crap, I guess.

I don't think it's what they put "in" the fries, but what they take out that makes them last so long.  Compare fries at Micky Dee's to other places and you'll notice that McDee's fries are dry and crunchy while most other's are soggy and limp.  McDonald's process removes water from there fries.  Without water most microscopic organism will not eat them.  I'm not saying this to support McDonald's; french fries are definitely unhealthy compared to many other foods.  They sure make a nice ketchup delivery system though.

Luigison puts french fries on his ketchup.

[Glorb]

Luigison's got it reversed; McD's fries are always limp or otherwise ill-suited for consumption. Burger King and Wendy's make the best standard-style fries (not counting curly fries, cheese fries, homestyle fries, steak fries, etc.).

[Trainman]

Burger King fries are the worst.


It's called dipping since you 'dip' your fingers in the can to get some ... well dip. And when you ask "Can I get a pinch," apparently that means you're asking for some dip cuz you pinch your fingers to get the dip. ha.

When did this thread turn into "Which fries stay crunchy the longest?"

[ShadowBrain]

Right about here:

What do you dip it in?  Ketchup?

*Torches/pitchforks mob marches toward Markio's house*

[Markio]

Like I'm the controversial one here.

No, but I actually wanted to know what dipping was.
