BK breakfast = bad idea

[morganskye]

I don't normally eat breakfast out. I like milk and cereal thanks. However, this morning I treated myself to Burger King. Omg that was the wrong thing to do. I ordered a #1 (crossan-wich with bacon, egg, and cheese) with medium hash browns and coke.

O_O *begins swearing wildly* NEVER AGAIN!!! It wasn't even that good! *swears more* I'm really hitting the bike when I get home today. Holy Crap!!

Isn't it disgusting how many calories those things have in them?! One bad meal won't pack it on, so don't lose any sleep over it. You might notice a spike from the sodium, but no damage in the long run.

It wasn't even that good!
That's what I holler whenever I try to eat out. The only fast food I can eat anymore is Chik-fil-A (go grilled chicken on wheat and a fruit cup!) Everyone else is just greaseville. D:

I don't like CFA. Something about their chicken always sits funny on my tummy, which is why I never go there anymore.

Thank goodness I ate in for lunch.

oye. been trying to avoid the fast foodiness in general lately (mainly due to money, more recently due to health) and the only real thing i crave is mexican or chinese XD

If I could make good sesame chicken I'd never need to go to the buffet again. *drool* Man, I want some now!

Holy crow!
I go to fast-food places out there, and I just get worried. In my eyes, a small is a medium, and a medium is a large, and so on, so I just cower at super-size orders.

Milk and cereal and fruit for brekkie, hon! :D

*points to post* I DO eat milk and cereal for breakfast. Today was supposed to be a treat.

Yeah, we have a few places here that still boggle me.

Yeah, my rule on food is if it's fattening, I better damn well like it. I won't eat slop unless I have no other choice. That said it also means I won't eat healthy if it tastes like crap. Subway is only when no other choice (like anime con)

Next year there should be more food options though- as they've finally accepted that they are a big con now.

It sucks when a con is out in the middle of nowhere. I hate having to drive to get to any place good. CC this weekend is going to be like that. I'm taking all the food I can.

Animazement was like that, next year it's going to be downtown so it shouldn't be- but keep an eye on the entry costs- heard they're really going to jack it up.

[morganskye.livejournal.com]

Yet another nail in the coffin for me. I want to go, but every year there's more and more reasons why I can't/won't.

I think it will be $50 to get in three days to start. $75 at door.

Numbers I've heard. (RUMOR though)

O_O Geez! I think I've been spoiled at reg. I've either gotten a free pass or reg was super cheap to begin with. I only pay that kind of money for Dragoncon.

I like Burger King's coffee, though.

Isn't Burger King the one with that ginormous breakfast sammich? *Googley-goo* ... Oh dear lord.
I... I kind of want to eat one on my birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HEART ATTACK!

That thing scares me. Like I'd die if I actually finished it. *shudder*

Personally, I like Burger King. Of course...I also insist on order the king size value meals and I don't actively diet. Amazingly i've not gained weight...can't loose it, but i've not gained in over two years. Which is good for someone who's eating their way towards clogged arteries.

Try the ham, egg, and cheese crossainwich if you ever attemp a BK breakfast again. It's the only one that's worth the price. You can actually taste the deli ham. Unlike the sausage (makes me kinda sick) or the bacon (lucky if you get two small pieces).

But at least you've learned something. And you now know that there's someone who all but lives off BK food, who isn't gaining weight because of it. And I've been to that BK near work so often that the part-time cashier at the drive-thru recognizes me regardless of what vehicle i'm driving.

Makes me think of 'Super Size Me'. Never saw it though. ^_^

I haven't had the ham before. I'll give it a shot. And there's nothing wrong with the cashier knowing you. You're probably getting fresher food.
