What you like in moderation.

I fried some left over potatoes and had them with eggs this morning. I rarely eat that sort of thing now so enjoyed them all the more.

Merry Christmas General, I'm back off to Oz for a few weeks tomorrow, will call in when I get back.

I don't think anyone should fear the demise of McD, nor the elimination of a single establishment. Unless of course it fails to turn a profit, which seems highly unlikely considering modern trends.

Perhaps you are right, but there is a big politically correct push to demonize hamburgers in general and McDonalds' in particular and they will happily twist the truth or blatantly lie in order to do so. Banning meat is their real goal, but they are working their way up to that.

McDonald's seems to be like Kriptonite for stupid people pretending to be clever.

Did you come across as being a prat in your other 15.2 452 posts

I don't like McD either but many people,

<deleted> has it got to do with you

I'm not the one who is too brain-dead to simply ignore a restaurant that I don't like. That is what it has to do with me.

Exactly, You have a choice! we all do

If we all liked the same thing we could all die trying to get it

and life would be boring

accept it and keep your comic thoughts

So Yes, what others eat has FA to do with you

You live and have your businesses in Chiangmai don't you?

Macdonalds- I'd be delighted to see a Macdonalds in Chiang Rai. I often stop in a Macdonalds in Thailand. Gauranteed clean toilets. First class washroom facilities are hard to find. I cant imagine eating there though.

Cheers Tongdee

And that is English is it?

And.....

Sod it, Merry Christmas

Christmas is over, but Happy New Year!

I'd like a McDonalds here in Chiang Rai. I don't believe one restaurant will trigger a "pandemic of obesity."

However, I am concerned about how children are more susceptible than adults to "flavor enhancers" consumed in prepared foods (soups, snacks, sauces, gravies, etc.) on a daily basis.

I believe Excitotoxins (MSG, aspartame), that make food taste better, are more to blame for overeating than a "convenience" store.

These are maybe a little bit similar to the kind of magic addicting components the tabacco industry serves in cigarets.

Stuff that manipulates the mind to cheat the body into unhealthy desires.

I never thought about it that way. I only knew about MSG.

Thanks for your interesting posting.

I am far from being a specialist, but those who overwhelmed by nostalgia suddenly feel the urge to bite into a hamburger could give it a try

at 'world class hamburgers' (yes, WCH) at the entry of the golfcourse at the old airport.

I am sure that good old Barry wouldn't want to poison us and though he is an excellent golf teacher, his passion has always been these

gigantic, not to say monstrous, American style Hamburgers.

Nor would Rico, for that matter, nor would Seaone, just to give som examples.

Sorry Chang35Baht, but I still didn't try the ones of the Chathouse.

Limbo

These flavor enhancers are used in every kind of food and are in no way secret. The have been around forever. If you eat Asian food you are getting them. If you eat tomatoes or cheese you are getting them. Vegemite and Marmite have a lot. Soups have them. Crackers and chips have them. Maggi sauce has them. They are pretty much everywhere.

For every person asking for information, it seems that:

A member will tell the OP s/he doesn't need the information,

Another will question his/her motives,

A third will rant about the evils of whatever the OP wants,

Then eventually someone will supply some information,

And finally, a troll will come along and flame the purveyor of information.
