I hate all that shit over 4 bucks on the mcdonalds menu, I hope some other fast food place makes shitty versions of those things and sells em for less than 4 bucks.

My younger cousins were just telling me the other day that it's not that cheap to eat at MickeyD's. Might as well go to Carl's JR or In-N-Out if it's going to cost $5 or more.

I've never bought anything at Starbucks in my life. Fuck them.

But McDonald's sucks too.

McD's fries is the only thing that I like. I used to like their chicken nuggets as well but they don't seem to taste the same anymore.

To hell with both of them. McDonalds's chicken nuggets are good when your 9 and don't know any better. Popeye's strips are 10 times as good. And regular gas station coffee kicks better than any of Starbuck's expensive girly mixes.

Regular starbucks drip bacl > gas station coffee. pretending otherwise is LOL

Starbucks is not just coffee. It's a lifestyle.

Now that I drink coffee on the regular I don't know how I ever survived without it.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #14 on:** April 11, 2008, 02:22:08 PM »

My wife is the coffee drinker in the house. She claims the taste of McD's regular coffee>>Starbucks, by a considerable margin.

But she also puts 4 cream and 2 sugar in her large coffee. I'm not even sure if that is even considered coffee after doing that.

Yeah their mcnuggets somehow taste and LOOK different too lately. When it comes to fries, BK or KFC has tastier ones.

i think the same thing, at least when it comes to drip coffee. especially after being a starbucks regular the past 2 years. can't beat the price either. i guess the McD taste test thing paid off.

they also love the great taste of coors lite, and the delicious italian meals of stouffers', and the rich nuanced chocolate flavor of three musketeers

I enjoy McD's coffee and it is cheaper than Starbucks. Then again I usually just buy a cup at school http://www.cravenscoffee.com/index.html

Bloodwake · « **Reply #21 on:** April 11, 2008, 05:11:11 PM »

And Starbucks' response?

"McDonalds' coffee tastes like shit"

And this is how coffee goes in terms of quality

1. Local coffee shops
2. Starbucks
3. Home

100000000. McDonalds and gas stations with their shitty shitty shitty fucking coffee from the depths of coffee hell.

I just go to wendy's instead and get a 1 dollar chicken sandich, and a 1 dollar caesar salad, and a 1 dollar small drink.

Wendy's

McDonald's

I fuckin hate mcdonalds, I bet wendys would do a better job with coffee

Starbucks espresso is way better after their nationwide back to standards training. The new Pike's Place drip coffee they've got is less burnt than their standard swill, but it's nothing to write home about either. McDonalds drip is just as good IMO, and probably a good 50 cents less for a small cup.

Haven't tried McDonalds' espresso. i probably should before their machines and training inevitably go to shit.

I love McDonald's.

I don't like coffee.

I am not a big coffee drinker but McDonalds iced coffee is pretty darn good.

Top 3 in the coffee served cold

1. Dairy Queen Carmel, French Vanilla or Mocha Moolatte
2. Sonic Java Chiller
3. McD Iced Coffee

tiesto · « **Reply #30 on:** April 13, 2008, 12:55:58 AM »

Holy shit, bdoughty... that's a name from the NeoGAF past. Fuck Starbucks coffee, tastes too burnt... even their chai tea tastes burnt, and their other drinks are waaaaaay too sweet. Local coffee houses are still the best, I'm so glad I've found a few back home, although they're no where near as prolific as they were when I lived in Buffalo.
