The best burger in town that is not known is at the Tavern on Camelback and 32nd street.

It’s pricey at $24 without fries but it will change your life.

My grand kids like McDonald's. About the only time I go there is with them.

Day before yesterday, wife and I went to Chili's and had their 3 part menu. Includes a starter, a main dish and a drink. 3 different prices starting at 12.99. We both had smash burgers from their menu.:thumbup:

I'm a scotch drinker but if I go somewhere they don't have any good scotch the sour mash is my favorite, and everybody has jack
Yup, everyone has it no doubt. The GenX Generation made Jack a "Top Shelf" option simply because we were broke... I remember so many weekend parties where I only had 15 or 20 bucks back in high school...so I would grab two fifths of Jack for like 4.50 each, then get a couple cases of Lucky Lager bottles...
we drank so much Jack in the eighties, not because it was good but because it was cheap... it convinced them they were a high end whiskey so they started billing themselves as the distinguished top shelf american tradition....LMAO...we so fudged up!!
had we known we were creating a cultural icon I thin we would have drank more Jose Cuervo instead...or southern comfort if it had to be whiskey...i certainly would have paid the extra 75 cents for southern comfort if I would have known it would spare me having to see JD marketed as premium whiskey

Started long before the GenX came around. It's all me and my biker buddies drank for years, back in the day

The McDonald’s CEO did and he didn’t seem to be the biggest fan. Lol
McDonald's needs someone to advise their CEO how ro eat a bfreaking burger. Pathetic. The entire Internet is mocking him.

I’ve seen those and the A&W guy is the best. LOL

Also A&W does not get enough love. Going there is still very much like going to a Mom & Pop place. And the pork tenderloin sandwich they have is awesome.

Yes, A&W is still really good. We hit them on the road from time to time.

Shame on McDonald's for letting that sorry video reach the public.

At least it has content creators busy making burger eating content.

Well, the CEO of McDonalds has a brother-in-law that knows a guy's sister that dated a guy from Cleveland who read something about Mike Bidwill and they both made the same face... keep re-reading it and it still won't make any sense LOL
