In fact I saw a few people parking at PDQ next door and walking over since their lot was half empty. I've tried PDQ, the salad, the nuggets and the sandwich, and didn't like any of them. Chick Filet is way better, next time you go, see how busy PDQ parking lot isn't. I have no complaints with McD's, 2 Egg McMuffins for $3.50 has been going on for a quite awhile and they still taste good to me, also their pancakes.

no one goes there anymore--it's too busy!!!

:bigbow:

Is that a hyperbole or an oxymoron? The finer points of grammar are momentarily evading me.
Either way it's funny

It's interesting that you say you prefer Chick Filet over PDQ. Most food at Chick Filet is pre-made, waiting for someone to order it.

As a for-instance, PDQ salads and sandwiches are freshly made; when you order a salad -- that's when it's made; sane with their sandwiches, nuggets and tenders. Their fried chicken tenders and nuggets are hand breaded in their own recipe, fried and not greasy.

Their salad with chicken in tossed in their own blueberry dressing or what ever other dressing you choose. All their dressings are their own recipe and freshly made daily, not in an already made package. You won't find anything pre-packaged at PDQ.

And you say you prefer pre-fab Chick filet? You must have been in the Army and loved the food! :a040:

Getting back to the hamburgers, I'll take Wendy's over Mickey D's any day. Their meat is fresh and never frozen.

Ahhh yes. I agree.

There are McDonald's snobs. We aren't them.

Excellent...YOGI! :thumbup:

My wife and I ate at Wendy's last week after not having been to a Wendy's in a couple years.I ordered a double which I had always ordered. I noticed the burger was much smaller not only in width but the burgers were thinner than cardboard,what happened?

Hooray for Wendy's!

Or perhaps it's what happens to us as the years pass us by and we simply forget??!? :shrug:

Wendy's, however small, is still a better burger than Mickey D's. And they give you lettuce, tomato and onion on the small one (value size), too. :pepper2:

If it's "too busy" then obviously someone must go there. As a matter of fact a lot of people my go there.

If you were being sarcastic then you'll have to give some sort of hint.

That was one of many famous quotes from Yogi Berra. I don't think it was meant to be sarcastic.

His actual quote was:

'No one goes there nowadays, it’s too crowded'.

Gotta love the Yogisms - even us non-Yankee fans.

Looking thru his quotes is like déjà vu all over again.

Do you know why Chick Filet has to premake all their foods? It's because they're too busy to make them when ordered. Go check out the Chick Filet on 441/27 next to Outback, then go to the PDQ at Colony. The Chick Filet does more business in an hour than PDQ does on an 8 hour shift. I still don't care if PDQ makes their food when I order, it doesn't taste good.

Does anyone know what part of a Chicken the McNuggets come from?
