Story Time:
Back in high school (early college?) Burger King launched a promotion for $0.39 hamburgers, and $0.49 cheese burgers. The burgers were the Whopper Jr. size patty and were pretty plain, mayo, katchup, onions I think. Their POS systems didn’t charge for adding on veggies or sauces (just things like bacon or…

It’s amazing how many of the covers are still burned into my brain after what, 30 years?

I would have been curious if you added in a dried gravy mix to the contest, while not premade, it’s like half-made, normally the cheapest and an option a lot of people would turn to.

It looks like that they are adding a new sandwich (not replacing thank god). It’s a shame the title was written to make it seem like it was replacing it. Gotta get those clicks...

I’m sad that they got rid of the Chic’King (Chick’N?) hand breaded sandwich from last year, it was the best non-Popeye fast food chicken sandwich. The new Royal is ok, but nothing amazing.

Bring back the Doubledown!

It’s always nice when a major game studio hangs a giant banner on a game that says “you will never need to worry ‘should I play this?’”.

A tip which really helped me is don’t worry too much about collecting the XP orbs. You’ll get them all eventually.

Brandon = Biden, after the whole “lets go Brandon” thing

I can only hope that the “omg this isn’t food” crowd are just super hippy/natural food type people.

• Going down to 5-10% is ok for very bad service (Note: actual service issues not bad food, or something. Also give them a break, if they are busy running all over, but didn’t refill your water enough, they are working for it)

I see you now, with no stars.

I’m in a similar boat; I’m not-gray on Kotaku and Giz, but not here. But I’ve been posting here less, so I guess that would explain it.

Dude. You’re reading this article on TheTakeout. It’s consumerism all the way down.

Sales is the most popular way to say if a brand is #1. “Italy’s #1 brand of pasta” seems pretty clear that it’s the #1 selling brand in Italy, that’s how I read it when brought it. I didn’t think this $1.49 box of thin spaghetti was created in and shipped over from Italy.

It really is too bad that they don’t just clear the air. I mean it’s their NDAs, aren’t they allowed to talk about it.

Devil’s Advocate: there is a bit of a contrast. She just made a big deal about not having to show her cleavage anymore, but then the next day announces her hiatus with a picture that has an very large amount of cleavage.

That makes a lot of sense, but perhaps in the future it might be good to include in the article?

Oh I apologize, I read that as sarcasm.  Stupid internet.

Yeah, initially I had wrote “none of the” or something there, but there are still issues. But my gut feeling is that if / when it becomes popular the ethical need to be vegetarian will go away. People will be able to eat meat, and not directly contribute to the harm of animals.

wut? I’m not sure what part you are doubting. Lab grown meat has gone from costing more than $100,000 to $10 in about a decade. Do you really think it won’t be a consumer facing choice in another 10 years?
