I had never gone to a White Castle but kept hearing people
rave about them so I decided to go to the last White Castle in
Pittsburgh. The inside was mostly blue and white. Not pale blue
but medium blue. The blue color made me sick to my stomach so that
I couldn't eat the food. I can't eat in the presence of that much
blue. My mother used to have those plates with the deep blue design
on them (delft or something) - anyway, I really hated eating off them.
Especially things like spaghetti. And my aunt had a set of melamine
plates, one of which was a light blue. Same thing I couldn't eat off
that plate. I always made sure I got the dark green on! Once I thought
it would be funny to make a cake in weird colors so I make a yellow cake
and dyed one layer green and one blue and iced it with purple icing.
It made me sick to look at it! Luckily my great aunt Emma did dot have
a problem with weird food colors and ate it.

It's a weird phenomenon. Anyone else have a problem with colors and
food? Now, I can eat a blue lollipop and blue hard candies or jelly
beans and that doesn't bother me. I can drink out of a blue glass
and that doesn't bother me. But put me in a blue room or put my food
on a blue plate and gag!

Kate,

A kissing cousin of Carl Jr is Hardees (east coast). Same ownership. Same
menu, etc.

About 75 miles from here. Remember the Thickburger commercial, starring the
Paris Hilton bimbo?

In L.A., a Carl Jr. was on my corner. It stunk up the neighborhood.

I tried their Western bacon cheeseburger. I couldn't finish it. The "bbq"
sauce tasted like medicine!
I could never bring myself to try anything of theirs again.

I didn't like JitB tacos either, deep fried crud!

Then Del Taco... the world's worst excuse for Mexican food. Imho.

Tapping fingers... what's fast food in my town?...

Wendys
McD (next to Wendys)
Quizznos

Burger King burned down twice and left town
Subway lasted about 3 months.

Best,

They did a study a long time ago. I don't remember the exact details,
but I think they fed some people who liked steak, a steak dinner. They
liked it. Another day, they fed them the same kind of steaks, cooked
the same way, with the same sides. But, although the steaks were just
the same, they changed the lights so that the steaks looked like they
were green. The same people no longer liked the steaks.

You've got to be kidding. Hardees is nothing like Carl's Jr.
At least not the Carl's Jr. I remember from 30 years ago. I went
to a Hardees once and it was horrid. I'll never make that mistake
again.

> About 75 miles from here. Remember the Thickburger commercial, starring the
> Paris Hilton bimbo?

No. And I would never go to any restaurant, nor buy any product,
that used Paris Hilton in their commercials/ads. :-)

> In L.A., a Carl Jr. was on my corner. It stunk up the neighborhood.

Well, it must have been an atypical one. The ones I went to
back in the old days were very clean and nice.

How long ago was this? 30-35 years ago their food was pretty
good. But then they changed their menu to things I didn't care
for so I stopped going. It's possible they have gone downhill over
the years. Many places have. I remember when Arby's had *real*
roast beef, not some "beef loaf" thingy made out of scraps of
beef pressed together. But the was close to 40 years ago. I quit
going to Arby's after that. And KFC ain't what it used to be.

Don't remember ever going there but I think they were somewhat
like Taco Bell

I like their bacon cheeseburger and that's about it.

> McD (next to Wendys)

I only go there for their sausage biscuit with egg for breakfast.
And I hate them (and should boycott them) for making everyone
try to make fries like theirs. I want the old fashioned fat
fries that we used to eat before McDonalds got everyone wanting
skinny fries. I *hate* those things. And McDonalds are the worst
of the worst!!!! They taste like cardboard. I never understood
why so many people *love* McDonalds fries.

> Quizznos

Okay, but I don't go there anymore since they changed the
beverages they offer. They don't have anything I want to drink.

Same reason I quit going to Eat 'n Park about 4-5 years ago.
They switched from coke to pepsi (blecch!) so I won't go there
anymore. The world is going to hell in a handbasket.

> Burger King burned down twice and left town

Used to go once in a while for their fish sandwich but
haven't been in years.

> Subway lasted about 3 months.

Awful crud. Blecch!

Kate, who's not against fast food in principle

"Fuddruckers", that name is just so absurd... We had an Olive Garden open up recently in Honolulu. This is a big event! We've been seeing those commercials for at least a hundred years. The Hawaiians are hungry for those foods we see on TV commercials. I have been to the Olive Garden in CA. Mostly, I don't care for that pasta stuff. The wife and kids find it exciting. Ha ha, that's just so weird.
The big news is that a Wendy's is being built in Kailua. That's just 6 miles away! Now that's some food I can eat. Truly, this will be a paradise! We still don't have a Sonic. That's a real outrage.

Sonic is shitty. Really bad. It exists in the Arbyverse. At one point in time,
there was a Sonic and a Checkers right next to each other a couple of
miles from here. It was like a Hellmouth. Both are gone now. Wendy's
isn't very good either. I'd pick BK or McD's every time over Wendy's.
What Honolulu *does have* is Popeyes. Spicy bone-in chicken, red
beans and rice, and Cajun gravy, plus they have good biscuits.

There is a Fuddrucker's about 10 miles from me. Their burgers are
pricey, but great. I get emails with discount offers, and after Covid is
mostly gone, I think I'll start going there again. It's a put your own
fixins on your burger place. They also have great milkshakes.

My guess is that a Sonic might not work in a place where the cost of land is at a premium. I could go for a burger right now. I'll probably buy some hamburger and grill it on my little bomb of a gas burner since my range isn't working. It'll be like camping out.

Their food is shitty, and their commercials indicate that their target
demographic is stupid White guys.

Naugles was started by a Del Taco exec, and the food was very similar.
Decades later, Del Taco bought out Naugles, and the food changed very
little. I used to eat there 8-10 times a week. The 1/2# bean&cheese
burrito with extra green sauce was my staple food. Any time I travel to a
city that has Del Taco, I eat there. I really miss Del Taco.

We went to the "saucer" - shaped Naugles, don't remember the exact location.. After a night of hard partying we'd go through the drive - thru and get loads of stuff for an early AM breakfast...on a hot summer morning we'd sit on my friend's terrace in Soulard and watch the sun rise through the humid mist...

Soulard then had an old - fashioned dive ***/drag bar (the Front Page, maybe?), it was like stepping back in time to the 30's or so...it was hilarious to watch the hillbilly drag performers...fun times! Also went down to the Soulard Mardi Gras a few times...SERIOUS partying...!!!

In 1989-90, my wife and I lived in an apartment where you could see the top
of the saucer from our balcony. When the Del Taco franchise here folded,
the owner was going to tear down the saucer. A giant Save Our Saucer
movement changed their mind.

I was one of the SOS folks with signs. There were hundreds of folks who
participated.

You think and say what you wish. The list of folks here who have any
respect for you is very, very short, not much better than John Kuthe.
Your opinion means pretty much nothing.
