i lol at wing dippers

they arent like chicken strips where you have to add your own sauce. the only dipping should be in blue cheese by women who cant take the heat

Blue cheese isn't just for heat mitigation though. I dip lots of other flavor wings in blue cheese. Honey BBQ, honey mustard. It's tasty!

In fact, I feel like the whole buffalo flavor itself has been made obsolete by much better flavors.

Apparantly Mcdonalds in my area have discontinued biscuits. Is this an everywhere thing?

Obviously there will be some wing non-dippers, and obv the wings can stand by themselves. But the majority preference exists for a reason. Which is also why McD's asks you, "What kind of sauce would you like with that?" and not "Would you like any sauce with that?" or not asking at all. Unless there are some weird regional preferences that I'm not aware of.

Say it aint so. They will lose my breakfast business if they do.

I saw someone munchin on a Jack in the Box breakfast that has me wanting to try it.

Mini pancakes, eggs, hash browns, and bacon all looked good.

Mcds wings- pretty good all around. I liked how they were slightly spicy and the breading was solid. One slight gripe I had with them is that they were a tad small in size (and definitely not too cheap by fast food standards, at $1 apiece). Overall, I think they are a nice addition and compliment meals well.

JITB has pretty legit breakfast imo. Think in my area (San Diego) they currently have 2 for $3.50 crossaints (either sausage and egg or the supreme, which is sausage, bacon and egg. Not sure if there's cheese on them tbh, but you can add cheese to anything on the menu for like 50¢ more or something). The waffle breakfast sandwich is good also. Also they have a waffle stack sandwich, which I think is pretty similar to the waffle breakfast sandwich.

Sounds good. The one I had was similar, with different meats: salami and pepperoni with provolone, spinach, tomatoes, red onions, and sundried tomato aioli on cheese focaccia bread, pressed panini style.

Saw this flyer at a local JITB in San Diego. Started few days ago. Think only served from 9pm-5am. Might tr one soon here. You can also get 1 of the 4 entrees a la carte for $4 each and the halfsies (half regular french fries/half curly fries) a la carte for $2.50.

Where you live? According to wiki, they're in 21 states. Also said that several hundred stores were closed due to underperformance, mainly in Texas and the southwest. So you might be SOL if you live in Texas or the southwest.

Yeah. I grew up in Iowa and was like wtf is JITB whenever I'd come visit my mom in San Diego. I never had it until moving out here two years ago.

used to have jack in the box in Massachusetts wayyyy back in the day (i just barely remember it at all), but they closed up due to an e. coli scare or something.

actually i'm reading about the e. coli scare and it was in 1993, way after jack had left Mass.

One more mighty wing review - agreed with the rest of the thread, they were surprisingly tasty and good sized. Tasted more peppery than buffalo flavored. I wouldn't want to dip them in any sauce, tasted more just like good, nicely spiced fried chicken.

Given all this, at $3.19 for a three piece, they cost too much. It's just hard to choose 3 bone-in wings vs 2 McChickens + a Double Cheeseburger for a quarter more.

My Habenero QPC, Small Fries, Small Coke & 3 Piece Wings cost $10-something. Too much for McDs.

Finally made it to Chik-fil-A breakfast today. Definitely the best FF breakfast out there, although it still has its shortcomings. Got a sampling of items, shared and tried some of each.

Chicken, egg, and cheese bagel - looked good, chicken was great as usual, but the bagel was mediocre. Little bit chewy, and not nearly as good as their regular bun. If the regular sandwiches are 9/10, then this was maybe 7/10. Chicken piece was indeed a little smaller than the regular sandwich pieces.

Chik-n-Minis - basically chicken nuggets inside of mini buns. The buns are more like biscuit bread. Very good, 9/10.

Hash browns - fine, nothing exceptional. 7/10.

Breakfast burrito - excellent. Best FF breakfast burrito I've had. Got the sausage one, and it was large, filling, and tasty. Grilled onions and peppers were a nice touch. 9/10.

Yup. I like 'em. Seem like a better value than the Mickey wing things. They are probably a notch below the things that Wendy's had awhile back.

Sigh, I miss Arby's chicken strips. Those with the honey mustard was one of my favorite lunches. Sadly, they've been gone forever.

Whole Foods prepared foods are not good, wi the exception of sushi, which is overpriced even by WF standards.
