let's say they only had enough food for one plateful (could be accurate). I would have attacked, in order of desire:

wendy's
chicken nuggets
FOF
QPR
a small handful of fries and a piece of pizza

lol salads and BK, those had to go last

I should probably add that I'd steal silverware.

I would go:

FoF as my appetizer

I then I grab a couple of Wendy's singles and double/triple them up. Discard the extra bread.

Side of Fries

And maybe a Big Mac for dessert

BTW, my wife got an Air Fryer for Christmas. That thing does an unbelievable job on leftover french fries.

I had some leftover Red Robin fries from the weekend. That machine made them taste like they were just served from Red Robin. I was impressed.

Same. That thing is fantastic. Since it's basically a mini convection oven, it's far superior for many things than either the microwave or regular oven.

Hash browns, pizza, fried chicken, regular chicken, frozen items, tempura, bread, etc.

Great ideas. I'm going to try it with one of those frozen Walmart hash browns next time. I usually microwave them.

We get the Trader Joe's frozen hash browns, and they're much better in the Air Fryer than either the microwave or toaster oven.

Also recommend it for frozen chicken nuggets for the little ones (or reheating McD's for those itt), and frozen shrimp tempura.

I think the fast food dinner was kind of a cool idea for a bunch of 18-22yo dudes. I’m going straight to the Big Mac pile and scraping the Mac sauce onto a Wendy’s burger.

Yeah I think the idea was fine, execution just wasn't great.

Man I just had a great idea. How awesome would it be to just have a whole fast food place to yourselves.

Hey can I get a 9 patty Big Mac with chocolate shake in between all the patties please. And other nonsensical orders. I would %100 love to go to that party.

I think it's an awesome idea, and the execution doesn't look bad either.

I'm sure I would have left the place in a food coma, but what a way to go!

Having dinnner at one of the most distinguished places in the world, with one of the most powerful people in the world, should at least garner something not served in cardboard boxes. Even kids who grow up poor would appreciate the effort put into a fancy meal if they didn't particularly like the meal.


What happened to trumps billions when he feels that shelling out $2000 for a party of a hundred people is acceptable?

I'm surprised at some of the posts in here. This is a fast food sanctum. We are FF experts and connoisseurs. We talk about eating your FF right away or in the car or a 10 min drive home being too long or even having FF dedicated coolers/stay warmers in the car!

Who wants to go to somebody's house expecting a great meal, only to be served lukewarm to cold fast food that had been sitting for hours?

People here would be disgusted by that at a neighbor's house, let alone somewhere with high expectations. This thread, of all places, should expect better than that.

And if they're gonna do that, then they should at least have the courtesy to have a bunch of Air Fryers available to heat up your food for 2 min! 😁

lol

At my Regional High School Science Fair, for lunch during the event they served hundreds of Big Macs. At the time I probably ate less than 3 Big Macs during my life. I LOVED that lunch.

I think I would go for that lunch buffet over baked chicken, watered down green beans and scalloped potatoes with a yeast roll on the side.

I'd test the temperature of the FoFs and unless they are ice cold, focus my attention on putting down 5-6 of them with a big mac and a few nugs (sweet and sour) in between to break it up. Slice of pizza for dessert.

I'm imagining a 75F sandwich scalding a Torontoan in the winter.

Speaking of Smash Burger, what was the final tally for the Smash Pass fiends itt? I remember some of them were absolutely crushing it, forget valuetown, they took em to valueplanet.

Was there ever a final report that I missed?
It's still going until Valentines day. I for one have missed 6 days in total so far. With the free side survey coupon my approximate value on my 51 smashes so far is about 450 bucks in retail value.

I have no problem crushing cold Mcdonalds y'all. Line me up with 4 big macs and toss some buns.

Maybe put together a nice frankenstein burger. The only thing I absolutely wouldn't want is a cold FOF.

Excess value:

Impressive, especially with a month to go. You deserve the honorary Mark_K Value Crown for the quarter!

Thank You, I don't deserve any accolades. I consume my sandwhich one bite at a time like everyone else!

I would mention Smashburger has really high quality greens, been going side salad as my go to side and time and time again the greens are fantastic.

I still would never pay 8 bucks for their big burgers or chicken but they are high quality and are super consistent (I think this may be highly location dependent though).

My Top 5 smash's are
SPINACH, CUCUMBER & GOAT CHEESE - Grilled Chicken
CLASSIC SMASH™ - Beef
BBQ, BACON & CHEDDAR - Grilled Chicken
BACON AVOCADO CLUB - Grilled Chicken, add raw onion
BACON AVOCADO CLUB - Beef, add raw onion
