    Quite a few years ago, standing in line at one of the fast food restaurants (doesn't matter which one - they're all the same) and looking over the menu board It suddenly struck me that I was about to spend (then) six dollars and some odd change for a soggy hamburger that resembles boiled cardboard. For that same $6 I could go next door to the grocery store and buy a rib-eye steak, take it home and cook it up in about ten to fifteen minutes. I haven't been to a fast food restaurant in 20 some years.

    My dad worked at KFC for something like 30 yrs. Started as a cook and by the time he left he was one of the VP's I think, a top executive whatever his title was at the very height of KFC's success. If I'm not mistaken McDonqlds was #1, Burger King was #2 and KFC #3 as far as fast food was concerned during my father's time. He used to tell us stories about colonel sanders. My dad had dinner with him at his home on numerous occasions and always spoke highly of him. The thing about him that made him successful, one of them, was his stubbornness with his own high standards. The Colonel is widely credited with inventing franchising as you alluded to. "Thoughty 2 Diner, now serving kentucky fried chicken" is typical of what a diners sign might say. The Colonel was known to show up on say, a Saturday night, the busiest night of the week when a diner was packed, and if they weren't meticulously following his standards , serving quality chicken as well as keeping his equipment clean, he would rip out the equipment, pack it in his car, and in the middle of their dinner rush, terminate his partnership with said diner. I asked him recently what he thought the Colonel would think about KFC's current marketing campaign in which "the Colonel" is depicted sort of as KFC's ronald mcdonald. His reply, "of it helped sell more chicken he'd be all for it." I don't know why I felt the need to share that, the video just brought back memories as throughout the 80's and 90's our family was heavily involved in the race to catch McDonald's or the "burger wars". More than just spectating one of its battle hardened generals came home for dinner every night at our house.

    When working a food chain called, "Fast Patty's," in Saskatchewan, Canada, the dark secrets of fast food made it where I have not eaten fast food since I resigned after working there one decade. The hamburger patties were kept in a heated drawer tray of sorts to maintain the temperature. Many times, some of the hamburger patties were not sold before they became a dehydrated, black, wood-like, substance that seemed to defy human consumption and several health laws. But we, the lowly employees, were told not to throw the strange wood-like substance, marinating in heavy grease, away. We were told to rinse off the strange black wafers and cut them up with a spatula. Then we were to dip the strange grounds in a deep fry vat, inside a strainer, and take it out. We then mixed the wierd lavarock-like substance into the chili. Needless to say, none of us ate the chili. We also never dared eat the deep fried fish nor the hotdogs, but those are other, unfortunate, stories. Needless to say, Fast Patty's no longer exists for very obvious reasons.

      Your experience in fast food restaurants sounds revolting but it's SOP (standard operating procedure) in every establishment that serves food. Perhaps not as extreme as mixing hard chunks of overcooked hamburger into the chili, but if you don't utilize your leftovers and incorporate them into other dishes you may go out of business. Food costs can ruin a restaurant if you aren't careful.

    This is really interesting. My brother and I weren’t allowed to eat fast food as kids growing up in America. Once every few years or so we were allowed Taco Bell-I always got bean burritos. Once I was in high school and had a job I bought fast food and I truly didn’t like it, for the most part. To this very day I never, ever eat fast food. Not for some health or moral high ground. I just don’t like it and maybe that’s because of not being raised eating it.

      I eat fast food once in a blue moon but for the most part I'm not a fan. KFC is definitely the 'better' of the bunch though but that's not saying much!
      When I was a kid I was happy to eat my fruit and veg and any form of junk food was a rare 'delicacy'. We always had a large amount of chinese food on New year's eve!

      Fast food is supposed to be "cheap" but in reality you're paying $10 for a combo meal. For a couple more dollars you can get a full meal at a restaurant with much better quality. That's the main reason I don't eat fast food. It's hardly any faster then getting take-out either. It's only benefit is being convenient as you are always within a mile from a fast food joint in any town.

    • @bradders9449

      I was not raised eating fast food, but at college / university I found myself eating it more because of the convenience, close proximity and perceived low cost.
      However since finishing my studies a few years ago, I might have had one or two KFCs.
      Essentially I've realised I only wanted it because it was there, and if you abstain from it or don't live nearby you'll no longer want it. Just like drugs, fast food releases dopamine in the brain where you want something your body does not need!

I think it will lose being food someday soon and would wager that there is a legal technicality that lets them sell their "food" as such.
