Fast Food Junkie

Hmmm, i went for A & W after gym on tuesday. It's been quite awhile since i last ate fast food. I guess it's a case of not missing something which you haven't taken for some time. Anyways, i had this sudden craving for A & W waffles and rootbeer so off i went. Yum yum...double scoops of ice-cream with maple syrup and butter on waffles...Wow! Delicious!! Am salivating at the thought right now.

I remember when i was very young, my parents love to bring me and siblings to A & W. Of cos this was before McDonalds, KFC and Burger King was introduced here. And A & W had a drive-thru!! Yeah, i know...cheap thrill!! So, you see a lot of families drive-thru, ordered their makan, rolled down their car windows and just ate inside their car! No need to cart everyone into the fast food joint and queue up to order after settling everyone down. You may think it's yucky since it'll leave a smell in the car or maybe the kids will drop crumbs on the car floor....yeah, but since we were kids, we didn't have to wash the car then wat so heck care lar...ahahhaaha...Oh boy, am i gonna be smacked if i had said this then..LOL....Moreover, we always manja our parents to 'tah pau' back the big bottle (urm, i can't remember what's it called oredi) of rootbeer...hahahaha..hmmm, their fish burger and curly fries are yummy too....

And who can forget the A & W mascot, the A & W Bear? Of cos i remembered since the bear kacau me before while i was having my meals there...not on one occassion but several times lehhh!!! Aiyo, why the bear so gatal wan ar? I think they are the only fast food who still have somebody who dressed up as a mascot. Frankly, i havent seen McDonalds or KFC mascots walking around the restaurant before, maybe just their 'stoned' mascots sitting on the bench outside the restaurant, where old people likes to sit...hehehe

Anyways, when McDonalds and KFC was introduced here, me and my siblings were ecstatic!! We love fast food soooo much!! Love those McD's fries (still do!), burgers (yummy) and KFC mashed potatoes and fried chicken.

See, to us each fast food have their own 'speciality'. Although haven't eaten KFC chicken for awhile now but personally prefers McD's fried chicken instead as it tastes much better (and also bigger!...not sure whether those stories about KFC headless chicken were true or not mah? as very 'kiasi' that's why dun dare to eat lor...hahahaha) As for Burger King, love their burgers especially when they used to grill them. I've been told that most people go there for their Whopper burgers (don't take beef so gotta trust them on that) Now i think they have changed to fried. Uuh..ooh, and who can forget their scrumptious breakfast too? Love their hash brown and croissants...it's much better than McD's breakfast set...hehehe

However, most children identify more with McD's probably due to their 'nicer' free toys (sheepishly confessed to being a Mc'Ds toy collector previously...:P)

Don't fancy pizzas that much but reckon Shakey's Pizza Buffet was quite worth it though they don't have it in all their outlets. They have variety of pizzas, salads, spaghettis, fried chicken, soup etc etc...

Previously, there were Grandy's, Wendy's, White Castle too but all these had closed down. And now we have this local fast food called Marrybrown which i have never tried. hmmmm...maybe i'll have McD's tomorrow...:D
