McDonalds and Bacon
Here in Australia McDonalds now offers bacon on any burger for an extra dollar. Why you’d want bacon on your fillet-o-fish I dunno, but people are weird like that. Bacon truly adds a whole new dimension to the heart disease causing burgers. For instance, try a triple cheeseburger with bacon on top – it’s almost as bad as eating pure fat itself!
However, we got bored of simply eating a triple cheeseburger, fries, and a coke. So we took $5, went to the counter, and asked for $5 of bacon! Now, this is totally unheard of… I mean, why bother when you can simply buy 3 times the amount of bacon and make it yourself! That is of course what the cashier told us, but we replied quickly with “yeah, but we have to cook it then!” Why would we cook it (which would’ve required walking home too) when we can buy it at McDonald’s? Not to mention, we’d need a woman to cook it for us :/
The cashier ended up serving us $5 worth of bacon, which equates to 5 rashers. It was really good bacon, better than anything the supermarkets could do… Which is funny, considering it’s McDonalds. Maybe it’s because they were dripping in fat.
Next time you go to McDonalds ask for bacon! Maybe they’ll get the hint and serve eggs too. Imagine that – bacon and eggs at McDonalds!

even with the possible chance of being blocked AGAIN i think i have to say this…
wow i never would have thought someone would do something like that but if someone did have to do it, it certainly doesn’t supprise me that it was you and the youthies….
also yes it was that it was dripping in fat that made it so good i mean come on almost anything that is dripping in fat is good i mean come on would McDonalds be so popular if that wasn’t the case?
Partly the dripping in fat, but also the fact that it was high quality bacon. You don’t expect that from McDonalds, but it was much better than anything I’d gotten from a supermarket. That alone makes it worth $1 apiece.
Although, if you’re in the US and you come here, you’re really in the money and can get LOTS of bacon. You practically double your cash (disclaimer: slightly exaggerated, at the time of writing it was 1 AUD = 0.63 USD).
And yeah, me and the youthies. Shouldn’t surprise anyone at all :P.
