Fuddruckers is pretty good, and they've got a vat of nacho cheese in amongst their toppings.  What more could a fat man want?

And Filet 'o' Fish?!  Damn, I just vomited in my mouth a little.  That is just nasty!

Oh, and as it hasn't been mentioned yet (which is a gross oversight)... In-n-Out Burger is goodness.

Sorry, was outrageously drunk when I posted that :(

I told here many times that I am an engineer in Academy of Science institute and in fact earn much less then people who work 8 hours a day 5 days a week in McD.

A joke about McDonalds, in fact a true story. McDonalds in Minsk, Belorussia, closed it's restrooms for "non-clients" (everyone knows that McD is the provider of the best free restrooms around), so, Belorussian punks "kidnapped" a dummy of that clown, Ronald McDonald, and wrote letters to McDonalds demanding them to open restrooms for public again. They included his cut-off finger or ear with every letter :D

McDonalds we have here is a branch of Canadian division IIRC, that's why we don't have all the dishes I saw in McD in the US. They also don't have clothes trees to hang your winter coats - a thing I really can't understand.

McDonalds used to be great.

I still occasionally eat there but

I remember when their burgers were grilled fresh and were about the size of their current 1/4 pounders. (ok maybe just a little smaller. but still alot larger then they are now

Now they aint much bigger then a white castle

And their chocolate shakes were every bit as good as you could get at any ice cream shop.

Now to me they taste like vanilla with brown coloring additive to make em look like chocolate.

the one thing they have always had and still have that is every bit as good as they ever were and still better then anywhere else is the fries

I'll agree to that.  And I'll verify on August 5th when I head down to San Jose.

with three things on the menu you can't go wrong.

The other thing I like is the service.  Everyone I've been to has been staffed by and large by young motivated hard working people.  They allways seem polite and never rude.

Its good to see our fellow Belorussians in the service of humanity. That clown had it coming for long time now.

On the otherhand keeping clean toilets is part of good hygiene. Letting a mob of vodka-wet russkies use mcdonals as their private water closet prolly isnt part of the restaurant's health plan. This must be where you are getting all those stomach infections from.

San ANtonio has this place named Chester's.  They have awesome burgers and a huge selection of brews.  All the micro brews and the good imports.  It is good stuff!

It's amazing what happens when you pay someone more than minimum wage. ;)
