They may have some left over. They serve shrimp cocktail and caviar at the employee luncheons.

I've been doing so good on my diet but today I had to get a 3 pc Mighty Wings with buffalo sauce because I can't stop dreaming about them. They weren't as fresh as the first ones I got but are still delicious and are in the best fast food item of all time consideration afaic. No one I talk to who has yet to try them believes me, but this is the real ****ing deal.

broke my 5 Guys cherry this afternoon.
Cheeseburger w/bacon
ketchup
mayo
Jala
grilled onion
grilled mushrooms
tomatoes

ate in restaurant
prettaaaaayyy solid burger. might add the raw onion next time. seems like the ratio of meat to bun wouldn't be right if ordering a little/single patty.

also had an order of little cajun fries. flavor was ok, but was not blown away. i prefer mine a little more crisp on the outside but still fluffy inside. these weren't quite cooked long enough to be my fav.

obv would eat again if the opportunity presents itself, but there are a few local one-off hamburger stands that i'd probably go to first.

Just had a McDonald's Big Mac for the first time in years....

I threw up 5 minutes later. Now I remember why it's been years.

El D,

Get the "regular" Cheeseburger at 5 Guys. Just hearing the cashier scream out "TWO PATTIES!" to the person working the grill will boost your testosterone levels.

hopefully you and other similarly weak humans die out before reproduction so as not to threaten our position as the dominant species

Love me a BigMac. Don't know if they have shrunk or it is a result of me not being a kid anymore but they seem so small now. Like value-menu small, 4 bites and you're on the homestretch.

Please post any non fat **** lunches you grab from a drive thru (with calorie breakdown if you feel like it)

it hasn't been too hard sticking to my daily calorie budget and eating fast food most lunches. i never get fries and i never drink any calories. that right there helps a lot.

my go to lunch is the grilled chicken ranch blt at mcdonalds w/ a large diet coke. it's a delicious, filling, low calorie lunch (380). the problem is it costs like $6.29 after tax. then you look and see the meal is $6.39 and go on monkey tilt (but again **** eating fries if you're counting calories).

my go to used to be 2 mcchickens, add red onion and pickle. that is very delicious and filling as well, though now we're talking about 740 calories. however this lunch only costs something like $3.40 with a large diet coke. i'm not a cheapass but when you're talking about paying double for half the food 5x a week.. it adds up.

sometimes i'll mix it up. the other day i got a big mac because i hadn't had one in years. honestly it was pretty disappointing! i can truly say i would have rather had the grilled chicken ranch blt.

i'm excited about 2 for $3 FoF though. i can usually fade an 800 calorie lunch if i have a 250 calorie breakfast + a 900 calorie dinner. that's basically my daily budget. luckily i never feel the need to snack or anything like that. oh that reminds me.. i got a bunch of mcd's coupons in the mail this week. bogo premium chicken sandwiches, bogo breakfast sandwiches. awesome.

that reminds me, i tried to get a bacon egg and cheese biscuit yesterday and they were out of biscuits.. WTF. almost glad though as it made me get a bacon egg and cheese mcgriddle and i had forgotten how incredible mcgriddles are. 420 calories of gross deliciousness.

He has strong opinions on burgers and is well versed in I&O vs 5G and is probably someone you should discuss this with so you properly appreciate what you are getting yourself into!

Standard 5 Guys Order:
Little Bacon Cheeseburger
Jalapenos (light)
Pickles (extra)
Lettuce (extra)
Onion (regular)
Relish (light)
Hot Sauce (light)
BBQ Sauce (regular)
Grilled Onions (extra)
Green Peppers (regular)
Grilled Jalapenos (extra)
Grilled Green Peppers (regular)

Regular order of cajun fries split 2-3 ways.

Online ordering is so elite and they actually do pile it on when you get extra instead of regular.

el diablo,

even the small order of fries at 5 guys is huge, def don't need to go large on that unless you're starving as they don't travel very well so can't really take em home and eat later or anything.

also, don't even bother with the regular imo, the cajun is clearly superior.
basically if you had the options of fries with lawrys seasoning salt or without would you ever choose without?

With 3 pounds of grilled extra toppings it doesn't really matter what the "burger" is made out of....

With that many toppings ordering a 'little' is absurd imo.

nate was telling me about that place but i never made it.
was it that much better then in n out?

btw did you ever hit up that amazing sandwhich place that was originally in the castro but then had to move cuz the neighbors were complaining too much and there were always lines around the block?

i'm blanking on the name, but they had some secret sauce i think it was called dirty sauce, and it was right next to the park.

edit: IKES PLACE! that place was so godamn ridic delicious.

it's a different animal (and quite a bit more expensive) but it's definitely up there.

Wendy's grilled chicken sandwich combo, sub chili for fries, diet coke. 600 cal

Also mcds bkfast do 2 sandwiches but put them together so it's 1 muffin/biscuit. Stay away from sausage but bacon and Canadian bacon are reasonable. I prefer the scrambled egg to the one on the mcmuffin w the dried yolk. In the (say bacon egg chz) biscuit, most of the calories are in the biscuit, so dbl filling fills you up more, has decent protein, and isn't super high cals. I usually eat it as 2 open face sandwiches. It just feels like more that way.

You can do similar things w mcdoubles or dbl stacks but those have more calories.
