Subject: McDonalds New Sandwich

Written By: LyricBoy on 01/29/22 at 2:47 pm

Wow, if this does not make them more popular, I’d be surprised.

Mickey D, for a limited time only, is offering the Land, Air, and Sea sandwich, a 1330-calorie masterpiece that consists of a Big Mac, with a McChicken filet, and a filet-o-fish patty stuffed in there.  8)

Awesome stuff.

They also have a Surf and Turf which does not include the chicken filet.

No fries, but I hear it comes with a coupon worth $10 off of a colonoscopy.  :P

I was at my local McD’s for lunch today, first time in probably a month.

To order the “Land Air Sea” sandwich they actually give you a McChicken, a Filet-O-Fish, and a Big Mac. You then have to assemble the pieces together (and presumably discard the buns that come with the fish and chicken sandwiches).

I only ordered a Royale with Cheese.

Quarter Pounder.

In France they call it the Royale. Because they’re in the metric system so “quarter pounder” would not make sense to them.

I did this first. Well, not exactly the same way, but in the past I put nuggets on my burgers. I'm surprised chicken & beef hasn't already been combo'd before! As for the fish... no thanks

As with that quote from "Braveheart" spoken by William Wallace (Mel Gibson)?:

"Aye, fight and you may die. Run, and you'll live... at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom fries?"

If I recall, the silly "freedom fries" moniker was coined in the aftermath of 9/11 when the French were vocal in opposition of George Bush's invasion of Iraq. It never caught on and people thought it was silly even then. Trump may have tried to resurrect it, but I don't recall that.

I’m not big on “crispy” fries. I like them well cooked but not to the point where they show any browning.

Never cared for curly or any of that, but I always did like the "krinkle cut" variety. Haven't had them in years and years though.

A few years after that, I stopped into a truck stop off of I-29 in northwest Missouri and I went in to use the men's room. When I looked at the big metal vending machine on the wall that sold rubbers and lube and other various cheap sex toys, I saw that one of the selections was, and I sh!t you not, "freedom ticklers."  ;D

No, I did not buy one.  ::)
